late stage american capitalism is wild

bari weiss is proof you can do whatever you want in america if you’re an unapologetic bigot, racist and liar. as @olufemiotaiwo.bsky.social keeps telling us, democracies need to establish costs for being a lying liar.

the enduring question of the sharm el sheikh summit is what gianni infantino was doing there

israel will never free palestine. palestinians will free themselves.

i would like to interview @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social about how he prepared to navigate the inevitable tsunami of bigotry when he decided to run for mayor.

solitary confinement and no one not even george santos deserves it

ICE is now stealing children from school

around two years ago i made the point that genAI technologies were a fascist project designed to undermine facts, truth and history and so here is some slop machine humiliating a hero of the american civil rights movement

it’s frankly wild to write this essay without unpacking the hilarious oversubsidization of cars in america but shoutout to @thewaroncars.bsky.social tho www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

meritokracy amirite www.telegraph.co.uk/us/news/2025...

hello friends in my phone - this is an alt i created because my original bsky account in my real name got too big and since we live in fascist times i need to keep myself safe. still glad to be here with you all.

*taps sign* genAI is a fascist project, stay safe out there

nothing to see here just the little pig man @jd-vance-1.bsky.social being an opem bigot.

for me the greatest broken promise of america is the myth that this is a nation that grew great on the basis of struggle and science and learning and knowledge but nope it's just a bunch of rich white men who want to do eugenics.

the rule of law was such an adorable idea we would try that again

we don't need to let these utter clowns lord over us

i believe there is exactly one Black woman CEO of a fortune 500 company today in 2025.

this includes the vice president

i am always curious about the choice of people to film scenes like this, instead of helping her

jd vance is doing this sketch.

"drop off the grid" = have been disappeared by the state

"Democrats don't have a problem with Arabs and Muslims" versus "a Democratic senator from New York State immediately called the Muslim who won a mayoral primary a jihadist during a drunken rant on a radio show"

Cass Sunstein should be more worried about the war criminal he’s married to (that would be Samantha Power)

Charlie Kirk was a bigot, a fascist, a cartoon racist. Defending and honoring him means you agree with him, or you can’t read. This is my only comment.

Ben Smith is a fraud and helping midwife America’s descent into fascism.

I see @karenattiah.bsky.social was fired for quoting Charlie Kirk’s own hateful words, which is a good metric of where America is as a society.

the israelis just out there doing whatever they please but bombing qatar with us approval is the cherry on the impunity cake 10/10 no notes

This is embarrassing for a country that pretends to be free

one critical pathway out of fascism is by imposing social costs on lying again.

there are so many stupid, illegal things in this one article www.washingtonpost.com/national-sec...

the eugenicists of the trump regime have decided in the war between children and cancer they choose cancer

BLUESKY IS A HOUSE OF LEARNED DOCTORS

only brown, black and yellow americans need to show gratitude, of course

i lived in the uk in the weird afterglow of new labour and when i mentioned to some of their members that their PM is in fact a war criminal they tried to assure me that he is a brilliant political visionary instead of a con man getting rich off the suffering of the world's most vulnerable people.

america is a country that hates children and is indifferent to their suffering and trauma.

do americans not understand that the constitutional era is over?

sorry tom, gaza is not the "world's famine". most of the world is in fact outraged at what israel is doing to gaza. this is israel's famine, with full-throated support of a select handful of western countries.

this is up there with @nedraggett.bsky.social's skydiving christian baby (real ones know)

a journalist's job is not to report that one side says it's not raining and the other side says it's not, it's to look outside and see if it's raining american media is failing this test.

my explanation for why fascism upends economies is largely because markets needs facts to function properly and per the formula the american fascists are doing their best to destroy truth. it is also why i keep saying generative ai is a fascist project to distort knowledge and learning.

save the bees 🐝 save the trees 🌳 save the whales 🐳 save the snails 🐌

i am compiling examples of how the american media enabled fascism and it will include things like NPR calling racist AI slop an "ironic viral joke" someone around here said we should call it while delusion instead of white supremacy and that checks out

what is "alleged" about it, it was captured on video and went viral

palestine is the crucible of free speech in the west because it is a mirror for their own crimes, and they don't like it

you in fact do not need to pay attention to anyone who thinks puff daddy and not biggie smalls was the talent

this is the episode from the thick of it where the team at the ministry discovers people in their very important focus groups are actors, but dumber

a Very Smart White Guy told me breezily when trump was elected that the big money on the left would realign itself within six months to fight back and LOL.
