Thing to remember about Stephen Miller is that people knew he was a Nazi back when he was a twenty something congressional staffer. This did not hamper his rise to prominence within the Republican Party. There are zero analogous examples of down low communists working on policy with the Democrats

WWII history is such a popular topic and so pervasive as a cultural touchstone, and yet ppl refuse to think deeply about it or draw a single goddamn lesson from it

Translation from bullshit speak: "Fine you assholes, we won't give them MORE money. But we are keeping things as they are and putting some lipstick on the death squads. Deal with it, vote for me, and give me money."

hey dude, I noticed you attempting to carve a small space for joy in the face of overwhelming sadness. kind of problematic considering all the horrors

Truth

The people who said Hillary was the best candidate against Trump, then insisted Mueller had everything handled, then ran Joe Biden. No. They were not correct about much.

Why is it my job as a regular person to take “please stop giving money to the armed thugs breaking into people’s homes and murdering moms in mom-vehicles” and feed it to our LITERAL LEADERS like “OH here comes the AEROPLANE open up, nyooomm!”

what were they right about that no one else was? I need specifics. they seem to oppose Trump on the grounds of norms. most of them screamed about kids in cages at the borders under Trump and then went silent when it was Biden, so you’ll forgive me if I think you’re full of shit

"shitting on ai makes you sound like a Luddite" oh okay, thank you! Luddites were cool as hell

Why don't I just get the AI to fuck my wife for me too?

Every four years the US is forced to choose between a fascist and a conservative while the newspapers claim politics has gone too far to the left

The USPS is a signature achievement of American society that must be defended at all costs

I recommend people watch WALKER by Alex Cox. Forgive the trailer, they had to market it somehow, but it’s a minor miracle that Universal Pictures even theatrically released such a strong indictment of US foreign policy in Latin America at all. It’s on Internet Archive youtu.be/XImi7fT7-J0

Our long national nightmare is over

The right wing is still just sore over this correct decision Minnesota made in 84.

The other side are not your coworkers, they are your mortal enemies.

less than two weeks ago marjorie taylor greene introduced and successfully passed a bill that will get trans kids killed. she did it right before christmas to maximise the cruelty.

Most people are ignorant on most things, being ignorant is fine. It’s the active, assertive pride in being ignorant as an organizing principle that’s really the awful thing. It is bad to be stupid. You should not be proud of being stupid.

AI isn’t going to take your job I am You’re going to go in to your next shift and I will be there, I will be wearing your clothing and your badge, I will be sitting in your chair, I will be answering to your name As much as you tell people I’m not you, they won’t believe you or recognize you

There was an article about how Dallas was the point America changed. JR was the villain and people loved him because those were the choices they would make given the chance. The bad guy kept winning and Americans loved it

[me telling my story how I survived a plane crash and lived on a deserted island for a year] it was crazy [friend who once got a text from me where I accidentally called the grinch the grink] was the grink there?

bigot goes over big in St. Bigotsburg

“when the time comes, some people are just there to get knocked out” is some scorsese shit

"we need to look forward, not backward" remains undefeated as the preferred strat that never seems to work

These people are nuts. NCAR developed the GPS dropsonde, which revolutionized the understanding of TC structure, improved forecasts, and validated remote sensing platforms, as documented in over 400 peer-reviewed publications in the last 25 years. And that’s just one of NCAR’s countless advances.

Ronald Regan never, ever used the presidency to be “a symbol of common humanity.” He personally killed nearly a generation of gay people with his callousness during the AIDS crisis, he destroyed the airline unions, he pioneered the economic structure that led to the modern oligarchy. He was evil.

“god helps those who help themselves” So god’s lazy and picking the easy wins

[Cenobite slowly turning to face Fetterman] We have such sights to sh-oh my god what the fuck

I long ago discovered that anything written about sex work by non-sex workers is worse than garbage and may be safely disregarded. this article is a perfect example

Woke 2 will be militant because Woke 1 still allowed for the idea that in this country certain differences of opinion must be tolerated however vile. Not anymore, suckers

I am fine and can be normal about this

I hate trump on immigration but I love him on boarder security. I am the average American and I have never thought any of my opinions through.

115 Democrats just voted to codify the first federal trans segregation law.

15 years sober today. I’m very grateful for everyone who has helped me get here, in big and small ways. Not everyone needs sobriety but man, I sure did. Life is so much better, even when things are hard, as they inevitably are sometimes. And the good times are more joyful. Thank you!

People keep wondering why they're going after Venezuela. It's because they want to do regime change and control its oil, then use a big tract of land there to keep a tax free "network state" that looks like Dubai but operates like Rhodesia. They are saying this out loud! Believe them!

fallon is like the worst human being breathing that isn't a billionaire or directly involved in the trump administration or actual genocide right now, a loogie hawked onto the sidewalk given a grasping, snivelling will to paw whining at the cuffs of power. he makes jay leno look like a colossus

why are there so many people who are not embarrassed to go on television and proudly announce to the world "i'm stupid"

Walking around downtown screaming MERRY CHRISTMAS at random people. They either say it back verbatim or we’ve got a problem. Keep the real spirit of Christmas alive you assholes.

a bunch of white Americans argued that you shouldn’t wash your rice because it “washes off the vitamins” and my response to that is, what if you ate more vegetables and/or took a multivitamin so you didn’t have to eat gummy mushy rice?
