still not quite over the fact that i watched 15 year olds get sued for millions of dollars for downloading twelve songs and now we all have to accept AI slop because every tech company in the known universe decided that IP laws don't exist now that they're inconvenient for them

Evie Lupine is On Fire today--- Because fascists are prudes.

“It is very queer that the unhappiness of the world is so often brought on by small men.” Erich Maria Remarque, author of ‘All Quiet on the Western Front’

Do you remember how the third reich handed the "problem" of disabled people? You do understand these alien lizard people in "The Administration" are worse--- You did not read 'Pr0jEkkkt 25" now it is reading you.

You like maps? Right? "Mapping Epstein's CIA and Mossad Connections" - @epochphilosophy.com

Don't you DARE have an abortion. You need to provide us that baby to sacrifice to our Hate -god.

Today’s post looks at how the non-affordability of art affected underclass representation in American history, and erased the central role of “brown” and mixed-ethnic peoples in the story of what would become the USA. #americanhistory beforewewerewhite.substack.com/p/paint-me-a...

Feeling overwhelmed with all of this. LISTEN. Another Louisiana resident (Marshawn is the only name we have) testifies against the state’s racial gerrymander, speaking truth to power up and down the hearing room and predicts how this story will end. Speak your truth, fight and believe.

“Speaker of the TN House Cameron Sexton just removed me and every Democrat — and therefore every Black elected official in the state legislature from any committee we served on," Rep. Pearson said. Fascist reprisals for protesting.

osu is odious.

A reminder about the authoritarian playbook: —First, sow chaos (e.g., rampant disease) —Then, claim only *you* can restore order —Blame oppressed & minorities for the chaos —Take over by coup (slow-motion coup harder to prevent) —Oppress *everyone* —Stay in power by force

Rapists are gonna rape children. Trump is a repeat rapist and Melania is a vile groomer. Sue me.

I was thinking of this effect last night: They offer the working class the "shiny thing" that is actively killing the poor. They sell them stock in it to make them complicit. They drive up inflation to turn the working class into the working poor. Then they privatize the thing you thought you owned

I wish I didn’t know as much about the end of Reconstruction as I do. If you understood what is being unleashed now, how it will touch every aspect of our civic life, and how difficult it will be to undo it, you wouldn’t be able to think about anything else.

It is almost as though neo-liberals got marching orders from oligarchs & so slit their own throats...

This is only 'outrageous' if you did not know they were fascists. This is only shocking if you ever took them to be humans and not nazi scum.

Residents in Fayette County, Georgia noticed their water pressure was unusually low. Turns out that a data center 20 miles away had been drawing 30 million gallons of water in secret through connections the county didn't know existed. Is it any wonder why so many are opposed to data centers?

Historian of abolition here, history tells us how we got here, to put it succinctly “John Brown was hanged for treason and Robert E. Lee was not.”

Centrists are the intellectual descendants of the people who felt it was important to avoid angering and pressuring Confederates

This is the University of Central Florida. So many people really have no idea how much kids hate this shit.

"[T]o keep his base happy, he needs to make their lives better; but to make their lives better, he'll have to make oligarchs angry.... Oligarchs' pleasure causes our suffering, so alleviating our suffering will reduce their pleasure." @doctorow.pluralistic.net

A lot has happened, but not much has changed.

I'll just note that critical race theory predicts quite a lot about the current racial retrenchment and for being *correct* it was pilloried in the press and by some academics.

Throw this foetid cunt to the dogs.

oh my Even an atheist like myself would know these people are into some deeeep heresy; some bone in, grade-A, prime filet of blasphemy.

Hi There! Gen-X here; you know, the invisible generation.. Just wanted to mention: We remember 1988, We Have Always Known, AND We Warned You.

People tend to think in absolutes without realizing how small a dip it takes to make businesses panic. I keep saying this but if everyone reduced their Amazon spending by just 20%, they would be freaking out.

Again, a very easy way for the Paper of Record to stop finding itself subject to what its editors & writers believe is unfair & constant criticism here on Bluesky Dot Social & elsewhere would be for them to Stop. Acting. In. Ways. That. <Completely>. Confirm. the merits of all the constant criticism

so powerful.

Let this embolden your heart Let this prove to you that we shall prevail against tyranny. And in the future--- believe mothefucking Black People when they tell you what is real.

This has happened because you--- the person reading this, Did not believe Black People.

Remember ~"Let people enjoy things."~ Talk about "capitalist infiltration of honest cultural analysis." Talk about a "thought-terminating cliché" I'm glad we stopped with that bullshit.

Drawing and listening to this. I can be such a prog girlie.

"American journalists need to acknowledge that we are in a fight for our very survival, and we’re never going to win if we keep shooting ourselves in the foot."

The human skin is peeling off their reptile bodies.

Get the fuck away from Chrome if you can www.thatprivacyguy.com/blog/chrome-...

I'm privately of the opinion that the "ballroom" is where rethugs are building & storing their alien mining equipment, to strip mine the earth and send it bit by bit back their lizard people planet. It's not "maralago face"-- it's their human skin-suits breaking down.

This single sentence starkly illuminates the epistemological error of the Judeo-Xian religions, and makes it as clear blood diamonds how they led directly to capitalism.

“You should support the MET gala, it’s a fundraiser for the arts!” Please sit with the economic reality of WHY the arts need a fundraiser in the first place. If Jeff Bezos gave a fuck about the arts, he could save them tomorrow. He’s too busy getting Amazon’s labor union leader arrested though.

Which is the backwards country now, United States?

Now THIS is quite a quote. Right on the bullseye 🎯 "Conservatism is the rejection of empathy for others. Once an issue affects them personally, they adopt the progressive position." --Unknown

Just a Reminder 😡😤
