People in the US have taken to the streets after the ICE shootings in Minnesota. They're willing to fight. Put themselves out there. Not us. We've lost that. In the past 11 years, if I've seen even 300 people where i live, out to save something, it's been an aberration.

My whole life, advocating war has been fed to me as “the adult position,” akin to drinking your coffee black or reading the business section of the newspaper. Let’s be very clear — war is the childish nonsense of impulsive destructive idiots playing baby-brained video games with real human lives.

Breaking News: Speaker Mike Johnson said he would shut down the House until September to block a vote on calling for the release of the Jeffrey Epstein files.

🧵 I’ve talked a lot about disordered discourse, conspiracies, polarisation, denialism. But maybe the better question is: why does this keep happening? Why does our shared reality keep fracturing? What are the drivers I talk about as a dimension of disordered discourse?

this antivax stuff is genuinely bewildering. like what do you mean you don’t know if vaccines are safe? why exactly do you think child mortality rates have plummeted since the beginning of the 20th century? why is it that you are not worried about getting polio or smallpox anymore?

Anyone out there actively declaring that societal collapse is inevitable and unstoppable is without a single doubt helping the accelerationist destruction of racist fascists. Helplessness, futility and panic help authoritarians. Organised, active resistance hinders them.
