Imo, this is tied to the quote about how conservatism relies on 1. ingroups are protected by law, but not bound by it and 2. Outgroups are bound by laws, but not protected by them Part of their protection is making sure you're never allowed to be away from them. You aren't allowed to be free

This is the energy 👏🏾

I went on PBS Newshour to discuss what's been happening to the trans community under the Trump administration. youtu.be/6Rhy-wcgCsM?...

Now, remind me again that non-Americans should mind their own business.

Love to see it

If you actually expect laws and courts to deliver "justice", you have been watching WAAAAAAAY too much copaganda on TV.

Crockett on MTG resigning: "Honestly, I was like, you got to be kidding. You're on the other side of the president for one week and you can't take the heat? Imagine what it is to sit in my shoes."

If the airplane is going to stuff be into a sardine can I'm going to dress comfortable.

If you’re a journalist who’s still on Twitter, from now on in your writing you have to replace “the American people want” with “troll bots in Eastern Europe demand” Being there makes your judgment suspect. I don’t care how savvy you think you are, you’re marinating in a disinformation campaign.

The Republican Party is a Nazi party, exhibit whatever out of infinity.

Again I have never had to work so hard to opt out of a technology that doesn't benefit me Sus.

For more than two decades, scientists have studied whether vaccines cause autism. The answer has been consistent: there’s no evidence they do. I compiled a list of 14 studies, covering more than 10 million children, that find no link between vaccines and autism.

If you use GMail, AI (Gemini) was turned on yesterday by default and now scans all of your content for machine learning. To turn off, go to Settings>General and scroll down. Uncheck the box for "Smart features." There's other "Smart" add-ons as well, but that's the one that reads your content.

Nobody wants this shit. Nobody. The hostile reaction has been so pronounced, in fact, that it feels like a company announcing it would never force AI into its products would carve out a pretty good chunk of the market.

If you're a youtuber reading out an entire article for a video without ever linking to the piece or mentioning the writer or the outlet, you are fucking scum.

You showed dick pics of Hunter Biden on the floor of the US House Of Representatives. Fuck off with your apology tour.

Remember the recent middle-of-the-night apartment building raid where children were dragged outside naked & zip-tied in the street while black & Latino residents were _sorted by race_ and piled into separate vans while their apartments were ransacked & robbed? That raid? So it resulted in 0 arrests.

petro is so beast

The soft pedaling language being used to describe the men in the Epstein files is enraging. They didn’t “have sex with underage girls”. They raped them. Sex implies consent. The survivors deserve better than this. Use the correct language. Say what these men did.

Hey so “underage girls” are…children. The word you’re looking for is children. They’re not like, women-in-waiting or women-lite or whatever. They’re children. I think some of you are very uncomfortable with what that means for you but it is still true.

Wasn’t expecting the Epstein scandal to blow up the New York Times but sure, why not

BIG NEWS: Congresswoman-elect Adelita Grijalva will finally be sworn in as a member of Congress tomorrow. She is likely to be the 218th vote on the Epstein discharge petition, which would force a full vote to release the Epstein files in their entirety.

Every technology problem is three social problems in a trench coat

New event coming up! this time at a friendly gun range where people have a chance to get some hands on experience.

OPINION by @zeeshanaleem.bsky.social: “Trump has observed that enough Democrats will crack under enough pressure.” READ MORE: www.msnbc.com/opinion/msnb...

In response to this claim that the "strategy didn't work." The people were on our side. We were building momentum to help save our democracy. We could have won - the premium increase notices were just starting. And giving in now will embolden him. Things will likely get worse.

anyway if dems think I'm gonna forget this shit in 5 months, they're wrong. if they think I'm gonna forget it in 5 years, they're wrong. they have fully convinced me that purging the party of these inept losers in the senate is more important than retaking the senate in the next election cycle

I'll get back to "party unity" as soon as the Senate Minority Leader tells us if he voted for the Democratic party nominee for mayor of his city. I'm tired of party unity only ever running one way.

Nothing compares to the suffering of a senator whose flight back from Napa was just canceled.

no money for politicians

Anyway a great way to radicalize people is for them to realize that you just abandoned their chance at being able to access and afford health care because you didn’t like waiting in line at the airport.

it's all fun and games until someone threatens our moderate senators' precious vacation travel

This deal to reopen the government is fucking disgraceful. Tens of millions will lose their healthcare. Trump will be emboldened. This is exactly what’s wrong with Democratic Party leadership and why we need more people in Congress who will actually hold the line.

My family has been without half our income for 40 days. It has been.. very hard. We are willing to feel that pain so people can have health care next year, or to undo these illegal recissions. We are not willing to have been put through this for NOTHING.

Unfortunately still true bsky.app/profile/adam...

dems: people are not getting paid. snap is cut. soldiers have to go to food banks. a sacrifice to ensure healthcare. (rich people have flights canceled) dems: op never mind we cave on everything. sorry masters we will be good.

all the polling the republicans where responsible for the shut own. all the effort to make this about healthcare, fighting trump all the starving people who had snap cut. all the unpaid workers. all a waste and now its so easy to show that suffering was the dems fault. good job @schumer.senate.gov

This is not a deal — it's an empty promise. Trump and his Republican Congress are making healthcare more expensive for the middle class and ending it for working families. Time for Democrats to stand tall for affordable healthcare. www.politico.com/news/2025/11...

Remember when they said the reason they caved in March was so they could get a better deal in September lmao

yeah the success of Tuesday freaked out the dems who want fascism and thought they where done. they have to make sure they kick there base down and keep losing like the good little fake opposition they are,

i think this is key. taking the deal would amount to taking the blame. it would turn a clear political victory into an unambiguous defeat.

I saw the Washington Post editorial on redistricting today and this is my official response.

Hundreds of thousands of people, dead because of a decision made by the world's richest man

I have to imagine far-right Catholics are really struggling with the fact that they can now hear this stuff in English directly from the pope.

Zohran Mamdani says on NY1 he didn't get a congratulatory call from either Andrew Cuomo or Eric Adams last night. He says he got a congratulatory call from Curtis Sliwa, though.

There was no need to make any corrupt deals with the Conservative Party. Democrats really need to run on their values and trust voters. open.substack.com/pub/rachbarn...

I'm happy that Mamdani won. But I won't let that get in the way of my celebrating Cuomo losing.
