I know the Atlantic has less than zero standards and in fact is happy to have a professional racist and liar on its columnist list but I dare to suggest that maybe there should be some consequences for so obviously making up shit and for sectarian and racist reasons?

This is from 4 years ago but I didn’t forget it since then. It’s very eye opening!

This is like trying to drill for oil through the ruins of Pompeii. Chaco canyon is one of the most significant native archeological sites in the United States. Absolutely disgusting to even propose it

Nihilistic violent extremism is a thing, but denotes a very specific phenomena coming out of very specific spaces. The San Diego guys are/were NOT affiliated with NVE in any consequential way. This was about as textbook a case of far-right accelerationsim as one can find.

surprise!

Each outrage, deception & scandal should be reported on. But the perpetual credulity – the “if this is true, then that means he lied” framing – is a stylistic choice adopted by the entire mainstream media which does half Trump’s work for him by framing each instance as deviation rather than pattern.

What I found in editing this essay by Eva Menasse about German moral panic is that no matter how many stories you've read about the absurd abuses of German memory culture, there are always more examples you haven't heard yet: www.equator.org/articles/ger...

Erfrischend klare Worte zu Gaza von Eva Menasse (2. Beitrag).

New in @equatormag.bsky.social: The novelist and journalist Eva Menasse – who has lived in Germany for the past 25 years – writes about the country’s escalating moral panic over antisemitism: www.equator.org/articles/ger...

“In Germany, the reality of Israel and Gaza, and even the ongoing wars in Iran and Lebanon, is less significant than German guilt, and the subsequent pride in memory culture, which is regarded as a kind of vaccination that will prevent Germans from ever again feeling such guilt.”

multiple things can be true at once: 1) there shouldn't be billionaires 2) since there ARE, it's interesting to see one spending money on being an ocean nerd in the name of science, instead of feeding us to machines and destroying democracy 3) valve's 30% cut of steam sales is too high

Of all of the things that Platner has done to make me suspicious of him, cranking his hog in a porta shitter isn't one of them. He was enlisted. That is baseline enlisted dude behavior. Jerking it in a porta shitter is, arguably, is the most normal thing I've heard of him doing.

it's for communists. get the fuck out

there’s some of this on the timeline this morning. “if you think Starmer is anti-trans then it’s not even worth pursuing a conversation” - you are being wilfully blind!

Israel bombed a kitchen that provided meals to the forcibly displaced Palestinians in Gaza, killing three and injuring others. The Palestinian Health Ministry in Gaza said Israel has killed at least 871 people since the so-called ceasefire began last October.

Any offense, no matter how minor, committed by someone that can fairly be described as an “attention-seeking crypto enthusiast” should be death penalty eligible 👍

The attack ads write themselves, man. “Donald Trump is using your tax dollars to pay off criminal pedophiles“ is just, like, a literally true statement

Yechiel Leiter, who is the Israeli ambassador to the United States, earlier today said that Bernie Sanders is not a Jew but instead a "a Communist, who may have Jewish pedigree". "That doesn't make him a Jew."

fundamentally unjust in their founding, always playing the victim, claiming underdog status despite their materially dominant position - sorry but they might be cooking with this one

the president loves stealing your money and giving it to pedophiles, folks. it’s like his favorite thing to do

Ok ok die ESC-Siegerin hat einen Bekannten und dieser Bekannte vertritt problematische Ansichten. Der Zweitplatzierte hat übrigens in einer Armee gekämpft, der Völkermord vorgeworfen wird.

Note how two decades of conceding to far-right demands vis-a-vis immigrants, Muslims and other targeted minorities has not produced the Utopia of Albion they promised was just around each subsequent mountain. Nor will this. And so if you want a simple answer as to how a society reaches The Camps,

This is how you legitimise and manufacture consent and legitimacy for the far-right. It is also how you inevitably create space for credulity-straining pieces shortly after initiation of mass-deportation programmes in which regular voters express shock at the extent and severity of said programme.

Das sind die gleichen Leute, die "Grüne und linke Spinner" in die Mikrophone brüllen, wenn sie über ihre politischen Gegner reden.

Sich tagtäglich zu wünschen, dass die eigene Regierung abtritt, scheitert, oder noch besser, das ganze, gewissenlose, korrupte Lobbygesockse im Knast landet, ist halt auch irgendwie demokratisches Endstadium.

slay sagen die kids heute oder

imo white collar crime in general deserves extremely harsh punishment. other crime, no, we know that stuff doesn't work anyway, but getting popped for public corruption (which this is) or financial crime SHOULD ruin your life.

If you're mad at this (and you should be): Tomorrow at 1pm 120 Schermerhorn in BK Rally to demand accountability from the absolute ghouls in our courts.

I don’t really care about the personal convictions of a man in a… button-up bomber jacket and a zipper shirt? What?

Black people do more prison time than this for weed

Written by the health "reporter" at the NYT who is constantly questioning every minute detail of youth gender care, seen here writing with praise about conservatives abusing testosterone.

Black and white TV is dying. Color TV struggles to be born. This is a time of Munsters.

Oh look, the stupidest thing you could possibly do

Well now I'm convinced

The global population is expected to keep growing until 2080, what has gotten into people

I assumed the word "million" was accidentally dropped after the subbed note that he was fined "$200" for this but, no, the fine was two hundred dollars. For late disclosures on tens of millions of dollars. A fine of Two. Hundred. Dollars.

Last week, I was removed from the Ontario Medical Association annual general meeting for wearing a watermelon pin. Medical institutions in Canada continue to perpetuate anti-Palestinian racism and censorship. But the real story is the Nakba and the genocide in Gaza. youtu.be/zutR_0dgLek?...

The people now lecturing Muslims with the ‘we may be actively harming you but you have to vote for us because the other guys are worse’ rap are the same ones who did it to black people and queers and unions and immigrants etc. etc. etc. but they think they’re the first ones to really mean it

OK it’s official I’m turning into the Joker

Caught in a barb wire fence, twisted sideways, pants ripped down to my ankles. Outsmarted again by gophers. Suddenly, I see dust billowing up from the horizon. It’s a convoy of rental cars! Hundreds of national reporters are on their way to ask me about gas prices and woke

"[T]axing the richest ... will ultimately require taxing their assets[.]"

She was deported without her toddler. Then ICE blamed her for his killing. 
ICE accused Wendy Hernandez Reyes of leaving her child with a violent uncle, but she says her son would still be alive if officers hadn’t detained and deported her.
