My only thought is they had to keep the kids traumatized to keep them under control. Straight out of a horror movie.

AMAZING NEWS. Huge shoutout to the incredible attorneys at ACLU-DC, Amica, NIPNLG, CASA, and WLC litigating this case! www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

The trial officially started yesterday. "Han is also accused of...helping Yoon win the presidential election in 2022 by mobilizing church members in return for his backing of church projects... Church projects = luxurious palaces in Cheongpyeong paid for by financially destitute church families.

Having grown up in the same religious cult as Shinzo Abe’s assassin, Tetsuya Yamagami, this cuts deep. Parents are made to give everything to the filthy rich, ruling Moon family vs. their children's basic needs. TY to his mom: “You didn’t invest in your children...what on earth are you?” 💔💔💔

Social murder doesn't get any more literal than this.

It used to be fiction...

Mamdani in free trial mode for the new customer. Can’t always pick up the heavy emotional labor bill, but he knew how important this was 👏

My article for Seattle news publication @realchangenews.bsky.social on the Loch Kelden or Denny mansion. This 1907 home to the Denny family who founded Seattle was sold to the cult of my childhood, the Unification Church or “Moonies,” in 1973. www.realchangenews.org/news/2025/11...

Nope. Yup. Lilith Fair Queen is back to own all the misogynists. She heard the call and rose up like Dark Phoenix. You live in a church Where you sleep with voodoo dolls And you won’t give up the search For the ghosts in the halls

Couldn't make it through Mike Johnson's comments, which feel like the people trying to soothe the NXIVM victims, holding them down as they got branded with Keith Rainiere's initials near their genitals. Video of his gaslighting side by side with the victims speaking out is truly excruciating 🤮

I see what you did there Pod Save America 😂😂😂 #bubba www.crooked.com/podcast/did-...

The flood of Epstein receipts boils it down to if Republicans "want" to do the right thing. Seems only the ones who got screwed by this administration or experienced SA bc "empathy is made up" right? Flocking to Jesus in times like these only makes Jesus look bad. Haven't you learned that already?

When Jeffrey Epstein says someone's the worst person he knows... YOU DON'T LET THAT PERSON RUN THE GODDAMN COUNTRY!!

Got these ads in the mail just before last week’s Mamdani win & immediately picked up on the sus. The fear-mongering w/ dehumanizing language was giving one-dimensional, out-of-touch NIMBY. So I did a little digging. 🧵 1/2

Re: Nikki Glaser's controversial monologue on SNL Yes, she joked about trafficking & r*pe. But I feel like some dissenting reactions were also tone-deaf to the nuanced informative nature of them, that I picked up on at least. This was my comment to one such reaction video on TikTok:

Premieres tomorrow. Great timing, Hollywood! #FuckICE

“…a lawyer…accused the administration of trying to ‘leverage people’s hunger to gain partisan political advantage.’” Hi, I lived under the mercy of a far right, super rich cult leader & this resonates 1000%. They. Don’t. Care. (But are great at keeping your emotions engaged, til the 💩 hits the 🪭)

What we know, 12:10am [Now in 2 parts] —Prop 50 wins —VA Dems flip Gov, LG, AG —Dems flip ≈13 seats in VA House —Dems defend NJ-Gov + Assembly —Dems win NJ+VA trifectas —Mamdani wins —PA Dems win supreme court —ME vote-restricting measure loses —GA Dems flip 2 statewide offices —Krasner & Bragg win

All that and… My voting station was on New York Ave in Brooklyn. So I voted in New York, New York, New York for probably the city’s most significant mayoral election in my lifetime. You got this Zohran!! 🙌 #mamdani #zohranmamdani #nycelection #democraticsocialism

This is growing increasingly ridiculous and dangerous by the day. Please everyone, can we engage in the only action that ever works to overthrow authoritarian regimes? Sign up for the general strike where there will be millions on your side to support the cause ✊ generalstrikeus.com

Welp, I know the next book I'm going to read.

What kind of person in a position of ultimate power to release evidence of wide-scale child r*pe decides not to, despite the victims speaking out where one wrote a book about it before ending her life? #EpsteinFiles generalstrikeus.com

Alexa, give me a metaphor for the zeitgeist.

The Gestapo is now invading our city, predictably after one of the largest protests in human history hurt Twumpy's fee-fees. Stay alert and support your fellow NYers if you spot them.

Madagascar, Nepal, Peru, Morocco, Indonesia, the Philippines... Gen Z protests have been erupting all over the Global South against tyrannical governments, united and inspired by a common symbol 🏴‍☠️ One Piece is inspiring a global revolution!!

He's treating it like he owns the place because he doesn't intend to leave. Our labor IS the economy where the rich and powerful are nothing without it. Do the thing and join this organized effort: generalstrikeus.com

Criminal predators helping criminal predators. FYI, the founder of Olivet University, David Jang was a Unification Church or “Moonie” cult member.

Campaign to Free Hak Ja Han, Part 1 of 3 Hak Ja Han, survived wife of Unification Church or “Moonies” cult leader Sun Myung Moon, was arrested last month for political bribery among other exposed crimes 🧵 www.tiktok.com/@2dhose/vide... #moonies #hakjahanmoon #cults #ffwpu #exmoonie

Kurzgesagt prides itself on fact-based, credible sources & sentient artists in their educational videos. Case in point 👇 The band of unqualified, billionaire nepo hires in the White House + the problem of producing "whatever sells" over competence = an AI slop era. Policy needs to > technology/$$$

““They dragged little Greta [Thunberg] by her hair before our eyes, beat her, and forced her to kiss the Israeli flag. They did everything imaginable to her, as a warning to others,” the Turkish activist ErsinÇelik, a participant in the Sumud flotilla, told Anadolu news agency.”+

I loved that at the end of Hegseths speech, he walked off stage to total silence. Not a single person in that audience clapped or made a sound. I would hope that Hegseth was completely embarrassed, but you have to have self awareness for that.

On my way to get some groceries and passed by a focal point in the national zeitgeist.

The child r*ping, 34 count convicted felon is declaring war on another city. This is not a drill. It’s general strike time: generalstrikeus.com

We, as a society cannot let this era just pass. There must be consequences for this Nazi revival shit which I, for one, will be fighting to see happen. No due process for one = due process for their offender.

The Lord works in mysterious ways 🙏

"...after sixty years in and around politics...I’m old enough to have witnessed the great sleeping giant of America awaken before." Robert Reich cites the downfall of Joe McCarthy, the Vietnam war, and Richard Nixon, saying he's feeling that vibe again now. As always, I'm cautiously optimistic.
