insisting on calling every mass day of protest or one-day boycott a "general strike" is not the move. it's good to see people rallying around the cause, it matters, but if you want to be part of a large-scale labor action that shuts down the gears of capital, start by unionizing your workplace!!!

Prominent Harvard alumnus and donor Gerald Chan coordinated with child sex offender Jeffrey Epstein in 2016 to explore building a Boston-area extension of Tsinghua University, according to DOJ emails. Hugo C. Chiasson and Elise A. Spenner report. www.thecrimson.com/article/2026...

this pretty much broke me

This isn’t about convicting Don Lemon. It’s unlikely that will happen. It’s about intimidating journalists & making them censure themselves out of fear of consequences. It’s about eroding the free press because the administration can’t afford the criticism.

I truly love that of the 149 total seats available for the 7:10pm showing of the Melania documentary in my town, only seven tickets have been sold (six to viewers and one to a masturbator)

None of these chuds think state governments should be enforcing federal laws while they're picking up an oz in a dispensary.

The restraint shown here just further proves that each ICE killing is a choice

n... no?

The people of Minnesota did that. Not Schumer and Jeffries, not Walz and Frey, not the standard-bearers of decorum. The People.

Honestly, it's probably about the smartest thing they've done.

The people of Minnesota have executed one of the most impressive civil resistance campaigns I can remember: - Organized a city wide general strike - Maintained nonviolent discipline amidst violence - Mobilized 10,000s in subzero temps to protest and watch ICE - Flipped public opinion against ICE

Even the best of them A) like white nationalism and B) don't have empathy enough to imagine that Pretti, the woman he put himself in front of, and a hell of a lot of other people, should never have been attacked by them in the first place.

Oh, bullshit. Does anyone really doubt that if this happened the regime would be closing it the restaurant's name hoping to generate a tsunami of bomb threats.

I've been called a "feminazi" for 20 years, and so far, have not felt even the slightest urge to show my detractors by becoming the thing they accuse me of. The only reason that Bovino and company are acting like the Gestapo is they are cowardly bullies who always wanted this.

I kind of want to ask this toad if BLM would have been justified in mass murdering Cliven Bundy's ragtag group of cowboy losers. Should police have just wiped out ask those greying TEA Party protestors?

Feels like it should be a pretty big deal that a Trump supporter physically assaulted a Democratic congressman

For real, the discrepancy in funding between ICE and USPS will get brought up as shorthand for why this country fell.

Chuckling at the people in the U.S. who consistently shit on people who live in "red" states... Well according to others in the world, the entire US is now a "red" state. Not so easy to overthrow authoritarians, is it?

I didn't grow up in any sort of faith tradition, so forgive an ignorant question, but did Job go bankrupt or did his god burn his fields, decimate his herds, and kill his children?

This is not really where it's at, I get that, but this boat 500 years ago thing drives me up a wall because isn't that essentially their definition of heritage citizen?

One thing that everyone "knows" and is completely untrue is that women are better at multitasking. There have been multiple studies, some finding women are slightly better, some finding men are slightly better, but the one really consistent result is that everyone is very bad at multitasking.

There is something to be said about the broken souls and psychology of the people around Trump who are treating him like just a normal man with rational motivations. So many politicians, businessmen, and journalists are just too unwell themselves to see how miserable this whole thing is

This is essentially the premise of the book I'm working on

I saw this video of a Vietnam vet in the fur coat yelling at ICE and thought to myself, "this is missing something," before I realized, "Ah, of course, the Ether instrumental. It's so obvious."

And the children's troubador shall lead them

They should also be worried that motorists will start interpreting orders from ICE agents to move their cars as threats against their life by men with guns... and act accordingly

A Chrome extension like Honey but instead of showing you Coupons and Promo codes, it flags a boycotted Product, lists why it was boycotted, and recommends an alternative with a link.

I truly curious to know if there's been any sort of wink-wink-nudge-nudge communication from these guys' superiors about possible rewards if they get assaulted. How many of them think they're going to be some sort of gestapo martyr if they become the reason Trump gets to use the Insurrection act?

This is a conspiracy theory and no one needs to take it or me seriously but right now I do firmly believe that we sold our armed forces to what amounts to a ring of narco-authoritarians.

Really happy for the people for whom this new is exciting, but all I can fixate on is how the font for the phrase "The Movie", and only the font for the phrase "The Movie", looks like if Walt Disney's signature and The Simpsons opening credits got wild one weekend.

I'm dumb, I'm ignorant, I know nothing... BUT! It kind of looks maybe like we used the American military to do a cartel's dirty work in exchange for some oil investment opportunities and, maybe, joint custody of a Nobel Peace Prize

None of them have the final say because they don't run Venezuela. They've fallen back on coercing Venezuela with a naval blockade, which is exactly what they were doing before they kidnapped Maduro. We're back to square one.

It doesn't have to be more complicated than people who use violence to increase their comfort while impoverishing others are bad people and elevating them degrades us all.

Hilton is being powered by the deluge of alligator tears Christian bakers wept at the thought of having to use two little groomsmen toppers on one cake.

Bakers can't be forced to forgo their First Amendment rights to satisfy a gay couple. Similarly, hotels can't be forced to forgo their First Amendment rights to satisfy masked cowards.

Reminder of the origin of the term 'deadname'. The name a trans person gets forcibly buried under by the evil family who never deserved them.

While I take this point (minus the effects, they have to paint in the crowd in every game shot!), it is important to note that Canada has NEVER been able to pump out 23 episodes a season.

Also, what kind of person perks up like a dog expecting a treat at the sound of the victor telling us how great and virtuous they are?

Cool to live in a country wise finding document based all constraint on the executive office in "trust". Dumb, evil vibe-based governance.

The nice thing about impeachment is that it doesn't preclude choking on a sandwich. A true "why not both?" situation.

Is it me or is it strange just how much silence there's been, kind of from nearly everyone, about nearly every part of what's happening

Grok can't apologize. Grok can, when prompted, generate a word sequence that is statistically similar to the colloquial phrases we think of as "apologies," but Grok cannot actually apologize because Grok isn't sentient. But we all have a lot of trouble with this because we assume sentience IS speech

Beethoven is about a weapons manufacturer trying to kidnap a family's beloved pet so he can test a new type of bullet against the dog's skull.

this is one of the things that sucks most about the Internet at large. it is not for people who get off on mystery

We should ask why it’s so easy for terms and concepts like “Heritage American” and “Western Chauvinism” are met with earnest analysis and exploration while academic theory produced by Black scholars are summarily dismissed by people reading introductory texts if that.

Christians killing Christians is a wash. Muslims killing Christians means Muslims are putting big numbers up on the board. That's really it. That's as deep and complicated as these ghouls get.
