It's easier for media to portray the election as an attack on American Jews than to delve into what NY-10 really was: The second most Jewish Congressional district in the US having a referendum between two Jewish candidates on what it means to do Jewish politics in the age of Trump and Netanyahu.

So far I've only seen Rashida Tlaib take a stand. Andy Ngo gave a snarky reply and his minions are following it up w a ratio. FOX News reported her statement in shocked tones.

These three got 50 years each for setting off fireworks, for no other reason than they did so to protest the regime.

Zines, crowdfunding, black clothes all used as evidence of being “Antifa,” convicted of “domestic terrorism” & sentenced for 50-100 years. Hope you are paying attention to Prairieland. This is how they will come for all of us.

Trump wants to make an example out of the Prairieland defendants, so we need to make an example out of them in the opposite way. We need to hold them close and not let the state claim they are the "bad protestors" who fought against fascism "inappropriately."

You can tell if a movement is serious by whether or not it abandons its prisoners, especially the "messy" ones. If Trump-era political prisoners are not released after he is removed from office, then the specter of Trump will not be gone.

the best chance the Prairieland anti-ICE protesters have is that we keep their names and their case on our lips as we eventually move to a post-Trump era, that we fight for their pardon as an essential part of departing from fascism.

like I'm not telling you not to protest or dissent, we literally must do those things, but they've just gotten a lot scarier in places where they were already pretty scary

this is WILDLY bad folks, this is political prisoner bad, this is can't protest without going to jail for the rest of your life bad

Nothing insightful to add. Just feelings of overwhelming horror, rage, and endless solidarity.

Good morning! It is June 23rd in the United Socialist States of America. Today we commemorate the Feast of Conviviality. Dine together and grow together! We celebrate the barrel cactus, ferocactus cylindraceus. Angelo Falcón was born today in 1951; Jonas Salk died on this day in 1995.

These sentences are ludicrous and a massive escalation by the regime against protest.

dear god I scrolled far enough to find the post that was seemingly the point of origin for this round of medieval peasant history fact checking and…. I would like to kindly ask all yall to take a step back and ask yourselves why in the fuck you are circulating this piece of fascist propaganda

"It really is the storyboarding... Nowadays with CG, you can do anything, and somehow it's still not as cool as that." –Genndy Tartakovsky on why Hayao Miyazaki's movies and shows look so good www.vulture.com/article/best...

As a conclusion, here's medieval cardinal and theologian Jacques de Vitry in the mid-1200s warning his peers that rather than being happy go lucky souls enjoying all those mandated saints' days off serfs were in fact pretty f'ing angry and perfectly willing to kill their "betters" about it.

Cohn also found that these revolts, especially the rural ones, were overwhelmingly organized by *commoners themselves.* So where peasants did get some relief it was their own courage, solidarity and action. If you want a lesson about medieval peasants' work life we can apply today, that's it.

Medieval commoners, including peasants, revolted *a lot* more often, and with more success, than is often portrayed. Historian Samuel Cohn, in a sweeping study of revolts in France, Italy and Low Countries 1200-1425, counted over 1,000, with ~70% resulting in some concession or victory...

Literally this wouldn't even be a question if major film industry people respected animation as a medium, but because it's seen as "the distract dumb baby content" even supposedly pro-art directors/studios refuse to acknowledge this crucial step in the development as important at all.

I think between this and Scorsese, this is particularly insulting to the contribution of storyboard artists, whose work is often critical in helping to visualise and blueprint the eventual cinematography of the production. You can see this in numerous storyboard-to-film comparisons. It is a skill.

man

“Ten defendants in three cases handled by Assistant U.S. Attorney Sheri Mecklenburg have now seen their federal charges permanently dropped as a result of the grand jury controversy in Boutros’ office.”

Excuse me how dare you talk about celebrity not paying taxes without acknowledging the greatest tax not paying celebrity, Lauryn Hill

The 15 Minnesotans aren’t actually charged with doing any violence, let alone “domestic terrorism”.

One of the 15 defendants in Minnesota indicted on "Antifa" charges for allegedly standing up to ICE is simply accused of writing an article we published about the murder of Renee Good. The author describes an ICE agent shooting a pepper ball at his eye, point-blank. You can read the article here:

see I was just saying I hate ‘claude,’ hit post, and a new reason to hate ‘claude’ appeared in the amount of time it took me to post about hating it

look folks we're never getting anywhere until we eliminate this system that encourages the shittiest people alive to buy anything they want and transform it into a weapon in their service

I have this thought like on the daily now lol. The one form of LLM anthropomorphising i knowingly allow myself is indulging in my hatred of that motherfucker ‘’’claude’’’

the entire framing of LLMs as “AI” was misleading and guaranteed to result in anthropomorphising and avoiding that language is a good step but imma start also refusing to participate in + start being an annoying pain in the ass about the language of “asking” LLMs shit too. it’s not accurate.

With ALT text. It also should be noted that all of those things are still available. Stop using genAI & search on your own. The reality is that living under capitalism means they will monetize anything they can get their hands on & convince you that you need to buy it from them. You don't.

lol witnessing conversations about setting parameters for an ‘AI’ that are invisible to the actual humans interacting with it, between people themselves using this shit, is just so fuckin wild

This is also the same area where many other Christian Nationalists are running for office this year. I’ll add some threads below about the KLANdidates we’ve been paying attention to. We should all be aware that they are HEAVILY trying to push their way in. With more money than you can imagine.

"be beige not rainbow" is the kind of shit the villain in a tacky YA dystopia novel would say lmao Equilibrium-ass future

states love to bring big business into their state so they can get the tax revenue and then give those companies all the tax revenue for free

Framing the use of a term with antisemitic conspiracy theory connotations “[…] criticizing, if anything, corporations” as NOT antisemitic is just laundering said antisemitic conspiracy theory. Like it is REALLY not fucking hard to see the problem with equating ‘powerful mega corp’ with ‘Jewish’

I could believe that a young teen could pick up language like this without direct personal exposure to the digital cesspools it originated in but if that’s the case the story then isn’t “this language is normal and fine now,” it’s “neonazi language has spread to a very fucking alarming extent”

Nazi paper doing nazi propaganda. Again.

On May 28, a judge refused to block Trump’s executive order directing the USPS to impede mail ballots for any voters who don’t match a (super shoddy!) federal citizenship list. Democrats appealed, but the Postal Service enacted the order anyway. www.cnn.com/2026/06/10/p...

hey, this is a fairly nerdy news item, but you should absolutely know about it. (looks like there are links in other posts in the thread.) the Post Office is really contemplating not delivering ballots unless states expose their voters' data to DOJ. I hate saying read that again but, read it again

getting really into tie dye just so I can make a super cropped cami + booty shorts to perfectly match this one

“The city will use two drones to identify large piles of trash. It will then install 50 license plate-reading cameras at the garbage hot spots over six months, more than doubling its current array of 35.”

Anyway… bsky.app/profile/hype...

Data centers are very similar in how prisons were pitched to ritual areas Telling them it would bring jobs and boost their economy when people were just brought in from outside and resulted in largely negative impacts for local residents. Both claiming to be a fix for towns that need help.

Putting the eugenicist in charge of disabled children’s education feels very… very bad

this is a catastrophe and he will do harm, and only harm, to those living with disabilities

Fascists peddle this conspiracy theory to obfuscate the reality that most mass shooters have been young aspiring fascists, often recruited by older fascists online and encouraged by the more public crypto fascist wing. This is obvious when you read their own words, a thing media has always avoided.

The Trump admin is transferring oversight of special education to the Department of Health & Human Services (HHS). The education of disabled students belongs in a department DEDICATED TO EDUCATION. Moving the oversight of educating disabled students to HHS is unconscionable and irresponsible.

NEW: This afternoon, federal agents violently attacked a crowd of protesters after descending from the Warren E. Burger Federal Building with tear gas and pepper spray. Protests are ongoing in St. Paul after 15 people were indicted this morning, and many arrested, for past anti-ICE activism.

The family is also disputing allegations of shoplifting. No bodycam or security camera footage has been released. Members of the community plan to gather at Senatobia City Hall at 5 p.m. on Tuesday afternoon to call for accountability for Kohen Wiley’s killing.

Police allege that the car was driving toward them when the officer fired into the car, killing Kohen Wiley and critically injuring an adult, whom his family said was his aunt. Some witnesses dispute that account and a cellphone video shows the car driving away from officers, but not the shooting.
