@nitafarahany.bsky.social heard you on podcast with @djrothkopf.bsky.social - Fascinating, yet existential. Sounds like Surveillance Capitalism 2.0 - Now following. Good luck with your book!

There’s nothing like Andrea Bocelli singing, “Do you see what I see?” During his Christmas special.

I don’t know if I just figured this out, but I did figure out, that Maga = “Revenge of the Nerds” but instead of revenge of the nerds, the scientists, this is revenge of the nothing’s. They are angry that they have been left behind and the only pleasure they can get is through revenge & damage.

This is probably the most heartfelt podcast I’ve ever heard w/ @daniellemoodie.bsky.social and @jysexton.bsky.social - A much needed therapy session of human connection, trying to make sense & create space for the sad & confusing national degradation we currently feel: 🙏👇 youtube.com/watch?v=miqw...

From now on, if I meet a maga, I’m going to literally tell them to “eat a bag of dicks” - I have zero tolerance for domestic terrorists. As Rage Against the Machine says, “there be no shelter here! (the frontline is everywhere)” youtu.be/-s3Y3WMGuYc?...

Great show from Chauncey DeVega (where is he on Bluesky? 🤷‍♂️) with guest, @normansolomon.bsky.social - nourishment and knowledge for the soul against American empire and fascism. Please listen and share: 👇 podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/t...

I’ve been listening to @petedominick.bsky.social since the beginning of time, & I don’t think I’ve ever heard him sound this fierce-liberal. I think he’s at the end of his rope with the ridiculousness of the Trump side: youtube.com/watch?v=pP-o...

Let me describe the narcissist. People are scared of narcissists, but we realize they’re just babies, so we say don’t be afraid of a baby…but then give that baby a handgun. 😳 Now what if that narc baby is in the White House, affecting worldwide markets w/ tariffs and holds nukes. 😱

Hungary shows us the endgame of autocratic populism: poverty and corruption www.theatlantic.com/magazine/arc...

This particular episode of @gaslitnation.bsky.social with host, @andreachalupa.bsky.social is so important! @drlisacorrigan.bsky.social explains the past & present state of our Democracy & the very real chances of us entering a Great Depression. This is a MUST LISTEN 👇 youtube.com/watch?v=67jI...

I thought this episode of Democracy-ish was well put together and highly important in particular with @daniellemoodie.bsky.social and @wajali.bsky.social so I hope you will join me in giving this a listen 🙏 youtube.com/live/AdpfsjI...

The eventual fate of the GOP

New data on the reaction to Gavin Newsom’s new podcast: Full Story: bit.ly/3FwfuJz

The U.S. has been suffering from a bad--potentially fatal--case of "it can't happen here." And now that we know it can, there are still plenty of folks whose eyes have yet to open to just how dangerous this situation is.

Knowingly or useful-idiotically, Schumer is complicit.

Latest from @sarahkendzior.bsky.social with @wajali.bsky.social who reminds us that our representation on the Democrat side (& MSNBC) has been “no bueno” too, and that we need to come together as united Americans to help resist our current Authoritarian “tech bro” rule. 👇 youtube.com/watch?v=_wTR...

A conversation between @petedominick.bsky.social and @djrothkopf.bsky.social is always a refreshing voice of reason in a crazy world. 👇https://youtube.com/watch?v=e4JGNPSe4e4

@gilduran.com explains Trump’s recently announced Jonestown-cult-like tech “Freedom Cities” with Host @andreachalupa.bsky.social on #GaslitNation 👇 youtube.com/watch?v=Jiju...

Say the word “women” everyday! Women will fight. Women will lead the way. Women will not go away. Women are our future. Women will not stand for this! Women are taking power back.

Truth is the enemy of injustice. The only reason leaders or a movement actively oppose truth—whether in the form of words, ideas, free speech, history, or education—it is because they seek to promote and institutionalize injustice—whether in economic, political, or social form.

Anti science. Anti history. Anti math (anti economic and statistical truth). Anti civics. Anti fact. Anti education. As much as it is pro greed or pro power or pro racism or pro misogyny or pro Russia, this administration is the most openly pro ignorance, anti knowledge in our history.

@mariaressa.bsky.social on @weeklyshowpodcast.bsky.social is a gem/hero. As a journalist in the Philippines, she was a “first to deal” w/ Facebook misinfo & authoritarian dictator, Duterte who said, “Shoot & kill drug addicts…these 👉 journalists are drug addicts!” Get it? youtube.com/watch?v=jsHo...

When Trump gets backed into a corner, his narcissistic survival defense mechanism kicks-in. He sprays like a skunk or he inks like an octopus. He pulls the rip cord of maximizing “unreality” to confuse the masses: “They’re eating the cats they’re eating the dogs!” or “You’re causing WW3!!!”

God spoke to me. He said Trump is a piece of shit.

DOGE recommended firing workers at: -FDA, which oversees Neuralink -FAA, which oversees SpaceX -USAID, which probed Starlink -CFPB, which oversees Tesla's financing arm and a potential payment platform on X. "Conflict of interest" is a severe understatement.

A lot of people are going to die from this

Here’s performance of “Mississippi Goddam!” by Nina Simone, as referenced in @daniellemoodie.bsky.social Podcast below. 👇 Lyrics at 3:15 - “My country is full of lies, we’re all gonna die, and die like flies. I don’t trust nobody anymore, they keep on saying go slow.” youtu.be/LJ25-U3jNWM?...

Remember the quote: “It happens slowly until it happens fast.” We’re in the fast part now.

For the record, the world is round, vaccines are safe and effective, climate change is real, and they are not eating the cats, they are not eating the dogs!

You know how we hear a song, and it brings back happy feelings of a road trip, a first love, or a day at the beach? Yeah, Trump & Elon don’t have those feelings.

By any reasonable metric, the administration’s signature initiatives, from DOGE to the immigration crackdown to making progress reducing the deficit, have been disastrous failures and show no signs of better results in the foreseeable future.

He will go down as one of history’s great villains.

NEW. Anne Applebaum. “That you take control of state institutions and make them work for you personally...every illiberal leader does...But [what's happening in the US] is more radical than anything any [contemporary] European far-right party has done.” youtu.be/WsBKxgOFSLg?...

Good time to follow Julia Davis

World’s richest man starves hundreds of thousands of poor children, while being a deadbeat dad to his own. newrepublic.com/article/1919...

Republicans and Musk are gloating over firing federal employees. Well, about 20,000 people are losing their jobs. They rely on those jobs for income. They have bills to pay and families. They are now unemployed. How do you think this will impact the local and national economy? MAGA.

Words fail to express the extent of my loathing for this hair-plugged, limp-dicked, Putin-fluffing, Hitler-heiling incarnation of evil at its most banal. I hope I outlive him so I can go outside and dance when he is gone.

If you are lonely and scared, then you should join us on Monday and Thursday nights at 8 PM for our happy hour hangout we have a great conversation and always lots of laughs. Patreon.com/petedominick

Anyone who watched knew @katiephang.bsky.social was one of the very best and smartest anchors and commentators to be found anywhere on TV. Her show will be missed but I will follow her closely wherever she is.

@joyannreid.bsky.social We love you! 💜

All the folks who exited NBC today. Seen together, hoo boy. Message received.

I love @petedominick.bsky.social, but skip ahead to 30min, for a quick Euro-perspective, then my favorite dude: @djrothkopf.bsky.social - He gives such a simple & coherent rundown on where we are at this moment. This gets a MUST LISTEN 👇 youtube.com/watch?v=Pof-...

This is what I said to my kid: “Last night I dreamed you were smart, then I woke-up disappointed.”

The South has taken over. Where is Lincoln and the Union Army?

I think @katherinestewart.bsky.social says something very profound on #PrevailPodcast w/ @gregolear.bsky.social - “There’s No Accountability (red) on one side vs Purity Politics (blue) on the other” and that Democrats need to come together b/c we’re 80% friends. 👇 podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/p...

“Let Them Fight, We Unite” is the slogan from @wajali.bsky.social on today’s episode of Democracy-ish with @daniellemoodie.bsky.social 👇 (also go to indivisible.org) Great show! 👏 youtube.com/live/vyLTZrN...
