insulting people by saying they never learned how to achieve financial stability is literally just right wing bullshit. the ability to make a stable living in a capitalist system has nothing to do with personal goodness.

This is not wrong.

Authoritarians establish rules to control *other* ppl and feel no obligation to live by those rules themselves. That's a feature, not a bug.

aww, I’m not on the AI haters blocklist, I guess I’ve not been openly negative about it enough

They never will. Thats part of the grift. The history of that party is them "opposing" Rs, making big shows of it but believing in many of the same things. They dont want the social consequences of being aligned w/ unpopular politicians/celebs/ppl while still maintaining connections and power.

Many Black people who continue to defend mainstream Democrats have linked their own Blackness with Black politicians. Their Black pride is not intrinsic, but depends on the Black Excellence narrative. 99% of politicians are our class enemies. That includes ALL presidents (including the Black one).

Even when you think you got it - you don't.

Fascists cant be shamed. They arent committed to rules & institutions. When they overturn them there is no cognitive dissonance. A political strategy aimed at calling them out wont stop them, because the problem is not that they're inconsistent.

A reminder during #NationalLibraryWeek, libraries are our best and last defense against the fascist monopoly on knowledge and information

“Over on Twitter, they’re” shhhhh. Shhh. Shh.

We won more BEFORE we put all our eggs into voting. Voting has handed us nothing but L after L.

The economy is bad and has been for decades. You don't have to listen to online vibeconomists pretending it's good. They don't matter and most are lying for attention/money. Just do what you can for your friends and community and disregard what financially comfortable internet pundits say about it.

The fact that there have now been TWO games that have come out THIS YEAR featuring tiny, very blond, barefoot little girls in short dresses and/or nightgowns is actually so disturbing to me. It's even more disturbing that so many people don't see anything weird about it at all.

like all the other white supremacy steamrolling over everybody and everything, saying snarky things online is not stopping palantir. pointing out how it's bad and needs to be stopped is not stopping it. telling everybody "this should scare you" isn't stopping it. it will continue.

The United State: A Brief History

Depression isn’t being “sad.” Anxiety isn’t being “nervous.”

Extremely normal and fine for a company to put this in a public statement

Its always like this when WWE is bad. Forums were full of this in the '00s when ROH got started and when TNA was actually good. They never going to give up the fed.

The answer is that the problem is the system

I'm never reading your fucking Substack, so there's that.

You know when a “new technology” is dogshit because rich people keeeeeep telling us that we need to get on board with it or get left behind. We’ve already been left behind. You’re rich. We aren’t. Eat a bag of artificial dicks.

A VCR never sold my private info to a nazi

They dont get enough criticism period.

Black people, you’re overqualified and underpaid. Have some fun whenever you can

"If I didnt do it, someone else will..." ...among other false equivalences will follow.

Dont forget that he doubled down when presented w/ the fact that he was doing so.

I feel this. I went to charter schools 4-8th and they did a whole lot to make them schools feel somewhat like jail. I remember going to a new school in 9th and was perplexed they DIDNT have metal detectors.

There is a reason the police get more money than school teachers, librarians and nurses, and every other show is about cops 'protecting us from the bads.' The average US citizen is not going to give up the ability to weaponize terror against people they don't like. Ever.

I wish I could draw 😭

Reskeet this if you hate Ne-Yo

I watched some episodes on tapes that I would get from the flea market as a kid in the 90's. All the negativity around it ALWAYS baffled me until I began to pay attention to who was speaking it. I havent seen them posts so im glad I already got them folks on a list so I dont.

Anyone demanding to know what you are specifically doing to organize, fight fascism, fuck even feed the homeless is probably a cop. Don't post your revolutionary to-do list on easily surveillable constantly monitored social media.

"People who were mortally afraid for their own skins and at a decisive moment failed to give support to the heroes who struck blows at the autocracy…yearned for the rebirth of a party that would pull the chestnuts out of the fire for them." "A Retrograde Trend", Lenin, 1899

ANYWAY, there’s no way out of all of this that does not include—at MINIMUM—a general strike. The best time for it was 2020 - 2021 when they were still recognizing the pandemic and offering assistance. But that would have meant having solidarity with disabled people. So. The second-best time is now.

lotta people trying real hard to dictate how we should fight back when "fighting back" in this country inevitably means "throw another pile of Black bodies at the problem and hope it stops" I fuckin' see you

These awful ppl didnt need reasons to lay folk off and they are going to be doing it even more aggresively now. Them lines are gonna go down and they are going to take it out on US (meaning black/brown folk).

People think prices are high now? Wait til this summer. The oil that was sent from before the war is still not here yet. The immediate $2 - $4 increase per gal we have seen is the flash from the explosion. The shockwave is coming. It will hit petro-reliant nations hard in every sector.

"You can't do that." Since when has that stopped any arrogant jackass from doing a goddamned thing?

"Why don't Americans ________?" For the same reason the Russians don't. Or people from any other country where a corrupt government routinely murders citizens.

Niggas: please take one and pass it around for when them people tryna get in your mentions sideways

I read this and thought it was a late april fools bit. If Copilot is "for ENTERTAINMENT purposes only" then why is it being shoved in everygoddamnedthing? Why is it needed in something like Notepad?

The audacity of these two trying to switch up knowing good damn well they voted for Trump three fucking times.

I have no idea why but today has felt like a Sunday to me.

Kanye has multiple rape accusers, everyone who worked at Yeezy said he was sexually harassing employees all day, and he proudly went to Diddy’s trial to support him. Yet everyone just embraced him when he came back to music like nothing happened. Please never utter the words cancel culture again.

"I DON'T BELIEVE IN HANDOUTS" That's not something you actually think, that's something rich people told you to make you think working yourself to death was your idea

This is called playing in ppl faces. Hes thoroughly aware that a double standard exists and understands that he benefits from it, as he did in this VERY circumstance. He is also aware that if this conduct wasnt tolerable then he would have been tossed out of NCAA a long ass time ago. Geno a bitch.

One day, "It" will happen, by which I mean sudden and unexpected news that you want to celebrate. In such cases, you will want the right outfit. 🧵

Anyways.
