The media moguls that now serve Trump have been doing this for years. Pushing back against the demonization of the working class for doing the jobs offered to us is one of the more important battles in the propaganda war with the Parasites. What you hate is what you are doing to us.

Watching JD Vance get shut down by Stephanopoulos for gish galloping was very satisfying, his plea of "wait, no" before being cut off makes him look very weak to maga. There is no chance a weasel like that can pull off taking over for Trump.

And it’s already backfiring because why would they be so desperate to speed everything up if their weren’t utterly terrified of losing their tenuous grasp of their barely understood power? This is a regime in a rapid death spiral.

Thinking about how much of this could have been prevented if our tax policy didn't punish small businesses so much. Big corps need to pay payroll tax because they have billions to spend on tax avoidance, but small business owners have to foot their own taxes plus double their workers taxes.

He got the crazy eyes

PDX, the regime is tweaking out over the fact that they can't get us to riot. They are frantic to get us to do something to justify their extremism. Do not give them what they want. They want to manufacture a war. Don't let them. We have to power to deprive them. So deprive them.

I'm telling y'all, the greatest gift we can give this nation right now is self-control. Deny the regime a victory here. We must regulate and realize our power comes from staying calm and focused: refusing to let them manipulate our emotions and incite violence. Calm, focused, regulated. We got this.

The breaking things is THE POINT. Break it —> suck all value from it and distribute to corrupt pals —> suffering, confused people are easier to control —> Break more things. Repeat. They said they wanted government run like a business. This one is a PE firm.

Portland, Oregon. The request by Occupy Democrats was to share this video far and wide. So l'm doing that. This escalation is illegal. We must exercise our right to peacefully protest the illegal actions of the govt. I look forward to the day of justice for all of these fuckers.

I don't think anyone under 16 should be allowed recreational technology. I loved video games as a kid but I really don't think the constant dopaminergic conditioning wasn't in some way harmful. We can have an educational game loophole though.

It's not, that's the design. Instability provokes civil unrest the regime can use to justify escalation. Do no violence.

I wouldnt give them six months before they force the military to mutiny, literally the ONLY source of power this regime hasnt squandered yet is the backing of moneyed powers who want a piece of the fascism. And their dogs in Congress, of course.

In case anyone is worried about the fascist takeover, the surest way to get serious men who have important jobs to do to hate you is to waste their time bloviating about how strong you are. This regime ruined their already tenuous control over the military today.

confident that if they could, cats would smoke cigarettes

"And they know that Eric Adams' record is Andrew Cuomo's agenda" Mamdani is SO good at political communication. He's gonna do great things for the most corrupt city in the country.

If the wealthy wanted absolute power maybe basing all of it on our compliance and productivity was a very stupid thing to do lmao

Those two at the end easily could've grabbed him if they wanted to. Either they were scared of getting hurt or, I think more likely, they're starting to worry about backlash from overly violent tactics.

Please hear this: nonviolent resistance is powerfully subversive. The regime is DESPERATE for us to either 1. commit violence, or 2. cower and obey. Either will suit their ends. So we give them neither. We subvert their paradigm and engage in nonviolent, disruptive resistance strategies.

This is so important, violent resistance advances the fascist agenda. Do no violence, but resist.

He's getting worse. He's escalating, he will burn this country down before he allows the Epstein files to come out. Shit's gonna get worse, but we can't stop pushing.

I've been wondering lately what a civil war would even look like today. We're not all grabbing muskets and forming battle lines, more likely it would be escalating right wing terrorism in blue states until people become radicalized enough to do it back. Not a war on terrorism, a war of terrorism.

This is big "my mom says I'm cool" energy

Just spoke to someone off the record, diplomats and leaders are clear that Trump entered a new phase where he doesn’t just hints that he is pro Russia, now he physically aids Russia.

This is why I think Obama's perspective on being respectful to Kirk is not effective. We've indulged caucasity for the sake of civility too long, playing his words and stating how psychotic the belief system is was working. They're not going to stop escalating no matter what anyone does.

Well...I mean, if it turns out they're toothless, that's great. But if they do start to black-bag peaceful protesters, then that is what will inspire the masses to rise up, so it's worth it. It took firing Jimmy Kimmel for right-wing "free speech warriors" to say anything about this regime.

It would dishonor my grandpas who fought in WWII if I were not anti-fascist too. Nuts to the regime!

Nick (derogatory) makes a post about how great it is that Obama is polite to Kirk, then is rude to me for stating why I don't think that's the best way to handle it, then blocks me for pointing out he was being rude. Is it like a rule that if you have over 10k followers you become an asshole?

If Jimmie Kimmel isn't safe, none of us are safe. Wake up. Join your local movement to oppose this un-American regime.

This is definitely one of the funniest things I've ever seen, a huge muscular man celebrating beating up a little girl is too funny to top m.youtube.com/watch?v=EQpW...

I think we have to push back a little harder than just getting the last word in in an argument with a dead man. The pretense of manners did not preclude him from being a psychotic piece of shit, he knew he was lying. He lied on purpose to hurt people, let us be clear about his legacy.

A site is up doxxing + threatening folks who didn't "mourn" Charlie Kirk's demise. Please email [email protected] + go to Squarespace's website and contact support and demand the hosts take down the website. It's a huge liability for them and a very real safety risk for many creators.

Disinformation: a play in 3 acts

The shooter wasn't a groyper, I'm seeing that everywhere and it seems like a complete fabrication to me. Don't spread misinformation just because you want it to be true. It makes you look just like the people saying he was a radical leftist, which is also clearly not true.

Okay I don't know if I'd go that far. He did deserve what he got, the problem is that violence empowers fascists in their rise to power. At this stage in our fight it's counterproductive, and if it does become necessary that battle will be harder for having given them reason to prepare.

why is literally everyone using chatgpt for the most mundane shit 😭 pls just think

Give me sugar. In water.

bvhgn My cat wrote that, I figure it would be disrespectful not to post it.

The thing that never occurred to me before about so-called developing nations is, they're kind of wonderful for the ones at the top. Only sociopathic, fascist scum could ever even bring that thought into focus. It's probably part of why people don't see what's going on. Literally can't *see* it.

Looking more like the People's Republic of America every day.

Sing loudly: If you’re proud of what you’re doing, show your face (clap,clap) If you’re proud of what you’re doing, show your face (clap,clap) We all know what you are doing, that’s the reason we are booing. If you’re proud of what you’re doing, show your face (clap,clap)

@schumer.senate.gov and @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social : Quit your jobs. Resign. Now. You are not equipped for this moment. You have failed us every day since Jan 20. Step aside and let progressives with courage take your place and fight for democracy.

Even if we accept the argument that wind isn't carbon neutral or that it's a wasteful power method, how is it not more wasteful to shut down a wind farm that already has most of the materials in place? The best part of this administration is republicans proving they are nothing but hypocrites.

Against stupidity, the gods themselves contend in vain.

This was both an interesting discussion and a really frustrating thread. If someone tells you something obvious or that you already know just say "cool." Or be rude. Or ignore them. Who the fuck cares.

This is honestly some of the best advice I've ever gotten.

jojos and dragonball are so similar because the creators both knew that the best way to write good fiction is to constantly write yourself into corners you have to bullshit your way out of

If republicans were so confident in their Austrian economics beliefs you'd think they'd want to see Mamdani win and tank the economy with price controls so they can say "SEE! Socialism doesn't work!"

Anyone else notice this administration's only solution to problems seems to be "give us money"? Taking a cut of sales isn't going to do anything but make their GPU black market more lucrative. Evil aside, Trump is genuinely a fucking idiot who has absolutely no idea how ANYTHING works.

With A Rose That Bloomed By Louisa May Alcott In the long silence of the night, Nature’s benignant power Woke aspirations for the light, Within the folded flower. Its presence and the gracious day Made summer in the room, But woman’s eyes shed tender dew On the little rose in bloom.

Real heroes wear smiles.
