people who are just now realizing chomsky is bad

I do not debate sexual assault allegations with strangers on the internet; I block. Take your devil’s advocate bullshit back to hell where it belongs. As for me and my house, we shall believe survivors.

I'm glad to see some reporting on the risk to autistic individuals if they encounter a bunch of violent assholes who try to escalate every situation.

Of course there are academics in the Epstein files Academia is not a natural space for radical politics, knowledge and emancipation as many pretend it is, buoyed by reactionary moral panics It is primarily built on conservatism, hierarchies and thirst for power so this should not be surprising

War crimes do not justify war crimes. Especially not if it’s unrelated actions from decades ago, by different people from different regimes, used to justify atrocities today. Nobody is forcing Russia to commit horrible crimes just because someone else did, does, or might do something bad too. 4/5

the culture war has assigned these scandals to opposing political teams but the epstein files and russiagate are the same story

I haven't done the math, but I suspect there's close to 100% correlation between Syria apologists and Trump-pilled brain rot influencers.

Looking forward to more hot takes on who the bad guys in the invasion of Ukraine are from Noam Chomsky, the guy who apparently felt Jeffrey Epstein was the real victim of Me Too.

disturbingly plausible

Forget giving copies of the Constitution to Congresscritters. Need to send them all copies of Merriam-Webster's Dictionary

"MBAs loathe employees. Any employees. They despise you. AI promises the one thing MBAs want more than anything — firing people — so they’re all-in. That it doesn’t work does not matter." pivot-to-ai.com/2026/01/29/t...

Crazy how the guy who made his career stealing from Satoshi Kon loves using AI, who could have seen this coming

Russia's at 1.2 million casualties, and then there's this: "After seizing the initiative in 2024, Russian forces have advanced at an average rate of between 15 and 70 meters per day in their most prominent offensives, slower than almost any major offensive campaign in any war in the last century."

Backstabbing rats 👊🇺🇸🔥

To avoid the possibility Holocaust remembrance might lead to empathy for migrants, Trump's antisemitism envoy claims Anne Frank "was in Amsterdam legally." In reality, Margot Frank received a summons to go to a labor camp on July 5, 1942. After ignoring this call, they were in Amsterdam illegally.

I keep coming back to watch this video every few days. I think it's becoming a pillar of my mental health.

They were willing to accept the fascism laundering if it meant that they could still consider themselves good people without actually *being* good people. And if the cost of that was ignoring, then denying, and ultimately enabling the rise of fascism... so be it. They felt it was worth it.

Treat the US government and ICE claims like you'd treat a Russian government claim after they've shot down an airliner or bombed a hospital. America 2026.

It is impossible not to hate the majority of American voters, who in their sloth gave up everything because they did not know or care that they had it.

Idk who needs to hear this but ACAB includes ancient aliens

god, will you leave my goddamn country alone for one fucking day

Bro I can't wait until somebody strings Kegseth up on a streetlight, i will bake cookies for the occasion

Fun fact the parental alienation theory transphobes like to cite was made up by a guy to legally justify his sexual abuse of his children.

"Parent's rights" one of the most insidious ideas out there, parents don't have rights they have responsibilities. Children are people not property.

There are questions about WWII that are worth litigating like "Did blitzkrieg meaningfully exist?" Unfortunately we're stuck in "The Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact doesn't count" and "What the fuck is a Pacific War?"

i've modified the Pomodoro method so I work for 5 minutes and then scream into an abyss for 25 minutes, i'm not getting anything done but at least my coworkers refuse to talk to me

and yes, if you are an American who claims to be anti-Trump and pro-international solidarity, but whine about the prospect of being mildly inconvenienced: you're a child. grow up.

Time to whip out The Quote once again

One of the greatest political memes I’ve ever seen. Shamelessly stolen from elsewhere

- become leader of a declining superpower - promise major changes - dumb policies make the economy worse - allies start to leave the empire - be donald trump - pic unrelated

If you are unwilling to acknowledge the dangerous insanity of Donald Trump you are part of the problem.

90 day suspension of US tourist visas and this is all over

This is 100% correct and the EU should do it immediately. The USA will break if a bunch of entitled Americans suddenly can’t book get-aways in Paris.

I do not think the strategy of "keep your head down, it'll be fine" is going to work out for anyone

Multi-layered “look what you made me do” lie. Because Norway didn’t give a him prize (it doesn’t decide winners) for ending wars (he didn’t end) the US won’t be peaceful anymore (bombing multiple countries) and will take Greenland (part of Denmark, not Norway) to stop Russia (it’d help Russia).

Australians are deciding USA is not a place to visit… oddly they still are going to Canada. Almost like there is something specific about the US.. #ThePoint thepoint.com.au/off-the-char...

Why on earth would you trade and invest in something like a foundry, that takes a decade to break even, when bam 3 years later a senile pedophile comes in and fucks everything up? You're gonna invest elsewhere, in places that prove they can be trusted for at least the next decade.

eat shit

Holy hell, what an obituary

#StreetArt in #Paris by #TheEndOfAnimals

It’s insane how all of our history classes were like “appeasement did not work for Hitler and the Nazis it only encouraged them to go further” and literally every power structure in the US is like “but maybe appeasement will work for us”
