Sorry y'all who think you're somehow living your anti-capitalist dream life by pirating media - you're actually just a piece of shit. Even worse, you're a capitalist piece of shit exploiting the labor of others.

Mamdani didn't normalize Trump. He turned Trump into a poodle. It was one of the most antifascist moments I've seen this year.

Excellent.

Megyn Kelly Anxiously Waits For Everyone Else To Start Condoning Pedophilia Too

This gives me a warm feeling in that chest muscle that Musk and Trump don't have.

IF you are going share something about RFK Jr., this is the story to share. I don't really give a shit who the man fucks. He is killing us. His "work" results in death and suffering among children. He is the worst human ghoul. He has betrayed the country and his own family. #MedSky

If the government asks for a list of Jews in your organization, you have an absolute ethical obligation to refuse that request, regardless of who is asking or what they say it's for. They have no right to ask and you have no right to comply. www.nytimes.com/2025/11/21/u...

What RFK Jr. doesn’t want you to know is that in 2019, his anti-vax nonsense caused a measles outbreak in Samoa that infected 5700 and killed 83 people, most of them children.

The part where they threatened to break a judge’s car windows should be a bigger story … they feel comfortable treating judges this way, which means they are being told that they can do literally anything to nearly everyone

Every iceberg breaks up eventually. But the pieces floating away are all still ice. TLDR MTG is still a horrible human being.

we gotta keep hammering over and over again just how fucking unpopular this guy is with every institution and every person in a position of power people hate him and people will hate you for capitulating to him

This is brutal. The useful lesson of this Administration -- it's often faster to destroy something by empowering insecure incompetents than through active interference. Corrosion is more effective and widespread than interference.

Compare to Democracy Docket's coverage on its from page. This is why we need to support independent media.

NYT isn’t worth reading because they are in the bag for Trump

The New York Times' story about Trump calling for the execution of members of Congress ran on Page 16 today, with an itty-bitty promo on the front about halfway down the page. No wonder Trump thinks he can get away with anything.

America 2025.

Just to review, in the last week the President of the United States: - Refused to condemn the rise of Neo-Nazis in his party - Tried to block the release of further evidence he sexually abused children - Encouraged the execution of Congressional Democrats Those are just factual statements.

unclear to me why i haven't seen a single elected calling for impeachment today 🤷

This is perfect. A Fox 52 episode podcast about the life of Jesus, apparently built on subterfuge, theft and lies. Many or most of the actors billed as participating had their voices repurposed from other work and didn't even know they were part of it. ew.com/celebrities-...

Nydia Velázquez is always a champion of democracy even when its hard. She was the only elected in her part of Brooklyn to challenge the corrupt Vito Lopez Democratic Machine. Her legacy is alive in AOC, Mamdani & more and by announcing this now she gives folks time to run a fair primary. Respect!

Nobody asked, but: I think the biggest pitfall of sci-fi/fantasy storytelling, especially for worldbuilders, in the infodump. You're (rightfully) just so proud of all the work you put into creating a cohesive setting that you just wanna PUKE it all over readers/watchers on page one. (thread)

“It’s now clear that potent opposition to the dictatorship requires concerted efforts by actors across the country, both in and out of government, all directed at bringing every abuse of the regime and its dictator to the attention of a public that is already alarmed.” Yes. Everything everywhere

In other words, Judge Oldham has a sock puppet account on Bluesky, and Judge Oldham definitely searches for his name on Bluesky, which means that Judge Oldham will see your posts about him on Bluesky. So definitely don't call Judge Oldham a Trumpian hack judge on Bluesky.
