Ruminating on this & remembering 2024 and how I figured when it came to Gaza Democrats probably wouln't be *worse* than Republicans under Trump and mmmaybe with enough pressure could be at least a little better but, like, why on earth should I fall for that again

No Epstein files bucket. No abolish ICE bucket either. You could be forgiven for thinking this is a dead party

ICE is seriously going to be Gaza all over again for Democrats isn’t it. They’re going to try it again, insisting if they just don’t talk about it then it’s not actually an issue that matters to millions of voters.

There is no "actually to remove Trump from office the solution is not to talk about Trump being removed from office." That is not a thing. You want to remove him you push to remove him. Same for Abolishing ICE, passing universal health care, whatever. Push for the thing and don't censor yourself.

I never quite understand why some people think that doomerism is some demonstration of their lefty bona fides rather than just an expression of nihilism, an excuse for political inaction, or ignorance of how politics works.

There's a certain kind of person who can't imagine a space of contestation between "full democracy" and "full dictatorship," and who as a result imagines that anyone denying that we're in a full dictatorship is claiming that we're in a full democracy. This is a failure of imagination.

If you believe that there will be election interference, vote suppression, and other malfeasance in some jurisdictions, say that. If you believe that such malfeasance could tip control of Congress, say that. Because saying "there's not going to be elections" ISN'T saying that.

the way to tell whether a person is credible is by *listening to what they say* and checking it against verifiable facts. The idea that you can bypass this with some value-neutral procedure is asinine if you think about it for two seconds and also the guiding ideology of 99% of American elites.

If AIM counts as posting, then AIM beat LiveJournal to my brain by at least a year. (I met my husband on AIM when we were seniors in high school, because we are arguably the *most* Millennial. Didn't get into LJ until a week or so after graduation. 🙃)

It was LiveJournal. Of course it was LiveJournal. Then, O God, there was an intense period of posting on the IndieBride forums circa 2005 but, in my defense, I was planning a wedding.

More or less you could describe everything for the last year like: “A thing happened that makes our regime look awful. Let’s lie about it.” The media: “Administration officials had this to say”

I am actively looking for leaders who will support pursuing justice, relentlessly, against the thieves, murderers, and torturers. Those who give the orders. Those who follow them. Those who protect them by lying in law and media.

Cripes a’mighty people, Steven Miller is not staging a militarized ethnic cleansing and sending the border cops to murder people in the street to distract from the Epstein files. He’s doing it because he and Trump (and Vance and Homan and Noem etc) really really want to.

Renee Good could have been Charles Manson and ICE still shouldn't have murdered her. Pretending her "ties" to anything are worthy of investigation privileges the Trump regime's lie that there might be a reason why it was OK to shoot her.
