How to Join ICE theonion.com/how-to-join-...

I'm skeptical of how much the "posted dumb stuff on reddit years ago" will end up mattering to people. Who hasn't!

This post (admittedly one I'm struggling to find on twitter) is racist and I condemn it But let's not pretend Ben Badejo isn't a piece of shit, a conservative, trump loving, anti Arab bigot who won't condemn Israeli terrorism in the west bank

I think my big issue with the California Forever plan is that its intrinsically a bit suburban in mindset. Its a top down plan of a community made to be perfect from the onset and to stay in a somewhat fixed state. to me this is at leads somewhat antithetical to what makes a good city good

The faces of the young Republicans are not great. (It's ok to make fun of them)

One of the craziest stories I've seen in a long time. If you think Trump and his administration are extreme and depraved, just wait until you learn about the young guns who are positioning themselves to take over the reigns in the next few decades www.politico.com/news/2025/10...

I am reminded of earlier this year, a few Milwaukee craft breweries were featured in a news story on how Tariffs would hurt the beer industry, and all these smug liberal accounts came out to say "hurr durr you got what you voted for" but like...its Milwaukee, they probably voted Harris

You don't have to judge Columbus by the standards of today. His tenure as governor of Hispaniola was so horrific that he was dragged back to Spain in chains to answer for his many crimes. Plus he never set foot on any land that would ever be a part of the United States of America.

Mfw the girl boss is fascist, but still a girl boss -_-

We have armed secret police kidnapping people off the street based on the color of their skin. When we win: we will haul them before a Senate committee. The masks will come off. There will be consequences.

Centrist democrats would rather a Republican win than a progressive. Fundamentally I think a lot of Dems are conservatives who would prefer the working class suffer than risk losing capital

This isn't necessarily true. Mills could theoretically be more popular with traditional democratic voters but more unpopular with moderates, while platner could be the opposite. In which case he could lose the primary while being the best bet for the general

If Democrats want to win, we need to hone in on this message. Republicans want to protect the home value of aging boomers at the expense of genZ and millennials paying high rents and struggling to buy houses. They don't want seniors to downsize, they don't want local stores to thrive.

There are no words to express how much contempt I hold for republicans Like I know, winning long term means reaching out to them and their communities in earnest to promote our ideas But goddamn, Republicans are borderline irredeemable right now. They have been for years and it keeps getting worse

And there it is. The entire attack on Netflix is just a grift for far right influencers to promote a religious streaming site.

One thing that comes through awfully clearly in these ICE videos is how many of these goons gravitated toward the job because being able to assault people with impunity is a big thrill for them.

The YIMBY approach to urbanism is to return it to urban environments Cities and towns grew and developed mostly organically for thousands of years, planning usually limited to rough grids and administrative buildings. Cities are living beings and need to have that freedom to thrive

a heartwarming story of how being an unethical and talentless hack is no barrier to success when you are willing to endlessly flatter the wretched views of rich dipshits

A big issue IMHO with Ezra Kleins thoughts lately is that it's rooted in pre social media ubiquity, maybe even more 24 hour news cycle, thinking. When your coverage and knowledge was local, you could have the politicians who broke from locally unpopular party points. Now all fights are national

The Milwaukee DSA is frustrating because broadly they focus on just two issues: Palestinian solidarity and turning WE energies into a public utility These are both great things, but one doesn't impact the city much, and the other is a big long term goal. Where's the mutual aid, for instance?

ABC removed staff e-mails after suspending Jimmy Kimmel:

"On the last episode of his show before he was killed," Kirk told "his audience, falsely, that “one in 22 Black men will be a murderer in their lifetime” and that “by age of 23, half of all Black males have been arrested and not enough of them have been arrested.”

Charlie Kirks legacy will be one of turning up the heat, dishonesty, & divisiveness of right wing rhetoric, which is likely what he fell victim to today. Political violence is abhorrent, but between this and the Minnesota murders, its the end result of this kind of rhetoric. RIP

The MSNBC commentator saying that most political violence has historically come from the left just once again showed how we suffer from failing to learn history. Lynching, pogroms, race riots, the political violence that ended Reconstruction, and against the Civil Rights Movement. Come on.

We have a bit of a natural experiment here. Compare the tone, quantity and duration of Charlie Kirk coverage with that of the two Dem lawmakers gunned down in their homes in Minnesota 6 months ago. May be revealing.

It is my goal to live the kind of life where people don't want to shoot me.

be very careful about what you post online

The President of the United States just essentially declared a war on Chicago because — wait for it! — Black and Brown people live here. This is not normal. This is not okay. And we are going to fucking fight back.

Being done by the UKs liberal party This is why we need to shut down people like newson before they get nominated for president

The stuff they wanna build is crap. I agree we shouldn't cede it to the right, but silicon valley isn't interested in building housing or trains or grocery stores or such

for all the toxicity thrown at leftists for being divisive, there is nobody more divisive than a centrist dem. the sort who cut out anyone who asks if the party can do better on some issues.

Khivers have an anti Arab bias

Liberals getting excited about Gavin Newsome feels like a person who keeps settling for shitty boyfriends. Like girl, you can do better for yourself - stop thinking you can’t do better. There is a guy out there for you. Look, your bestie New York City found a great guy and she’s had so many bad exs.

I could never trust a "liberal" who only cares about Gaza or civil rights in the context of a gotcha to leftists, who they falsely blame for losing 2024 Because they dont actually give a shit about these issues. There isnt a group or cause they wouldnt throw under the bus to win

this is a big reason why its important to not cede any moral ground on trans rights. When you cede ground, whether its sports or bathrooms or anything else that feels minor to you, these are the people you are enabling.

Imelda Padilla is great at not answering questions

even if he *had* been resisting, this level of force is unacceptable that we normalize violence against people after they've been detained is crazy to me

this my only issue with the show actually. Bobby is supposed to be 21, but doesnt act like a younger gen Z person. not do connie, chang, or joseph. they act like how mid 20s people acted a decade ago In fact, their storylines all work better if you just pretend they are late 20s zillennials instead

centrist dems hate anyone who doesnt bow down to worship the democratic party. they hate anyone who wants us to do better. they hate anyone who has actual views and morals that deviate from their own. Howe dumb do you need to be to equate Nina turner to Tulsi gabbard

Know your rights, Chicago. Ask for a warrant. Record the goons from a safe distance. We don’t want or need them here.

The placement of these two posts on my discover feed are perfect

If this platform is banning people for being mean to bastards like JK Rowling, may the black mold take her, then it's no better than Twitter. And the whole point is that this is supposed to be better than Twitter

RT if you also wish ill upon JK Rowling.

the entire party and establishment seems to be rallying around Newsom, a politician with low nationwide favorability. Reminds me a lot of the years leading up to 2016

some of these are ok, but a lot of this is basically suggesting dems not discuss issues at a deeper level at all

Safety first! I don't want anyone getting food poisoning so if you must throw someone a sandwich be sure that it's still frozen.

IMHO this is bad enough to consider impeaching the mayor
