I'm starting to think when they say "anti zionist" some people just mean jews and the left is too stupid to figure it out. I don't know. It could just be me.

The far lefts response to platner has been essentially "boys will be boys."

It's almost funny that the same people who screeched that Ukraine is a nation of Nazis for years, are now literally defending an SS tattoo. Almost. The blatant cynicism then makes me want to vomit.

“The Department of Justice has removed a study showing that white supremacist and far-right violence “continues to outpace all other types of terrorism and domestic violent extremism” in the United States.” www.404media.co/doj-deletes-...

Let me suggest that if I have tanks invade my city, that if the courts declare me a second-class citizen, that if masked men abduct my neighbors, and I go to you, my rep, and say “help me fight my persecutors,” and you say “shush, talk about healthcare subsidies,” you, too, are my persecutor

Very Trumpian. If you don't look at it, it isn't there. If you didn't test for COVID, you didn't have any cases. Sure. Makes perfect sense.

1. Declare General Strike 2. Organize????????? 3. ??????????? 4. Victory

This is A+ trolling

Believing that anything in politics is permanent is half the problem here. A victory today needs to be defended forever after; that sucks and it's a lot of work, but if you take your eye off the ball for a second, guess what happens.

There aren’t any permanent long-term solutions in politics! We did find a permanent medium-term solution to fascism but I guess it expired recently

So this is just zog posting. We can call this antisemitic yes?

“I asked chat gpt”, “I asked grok” I asked the tarot cards how mercury retrograde affects the US-russia strategic disagreements regarding oil prices and nuclear submarine deployments

Off the rails.

The alternative to Pax Americana is arms proliferation and militarization in the face of actually existing imperialism

"How can we communicate with optimism about the future … when we're living in the here and now where American democracy is in peril? … And we're supposed to ignore it? Leave it to others to wrestle with …? No no no no no. … "That is tonight's Last Word on my last day at the Washington Post."

"Free Tibet" was a thing for so long that the Simpsons in the early 2000s was making jokes about liberals having it as a bumper sticker they forgot about

We are very far over the cliff here folks

You're telling me we were robbed of a Lincoln ziggurat where we could have ritually sacrificed slavers at the apex under a statue of the Great Emancipator?

Reporting on the Russian Wagner Group has come at a personal cost. I’ve been abducted, tortured, and targeted with death threats by their operatives & allies. Yet, I continue to speak out because the voices of the victims—the miners, the mothers, the children—deserve to be heard.

@safety.bsky.app could you please unban Mira of Kyiv @reshetz.bsky.social she is one of the least offensive people I can imagine. I would also argue that it is morally questionable to deplatform Ukrainians who through their presence keep us informed of this criminal war forced upon them.

#NAFO #Fellas #NAFOArticle5 #FreeMiraOfKyiv @jay.bsky.team #BlueCrew #NAFOBoost Our dear Mira, @reshetz.bsky.social , has been wrongfully suspended! Night after night, as terror rains down around her, she reports to us. Her bravery is unsurpassed! She needs our help! Please repost!

Elon tweeting that women are “built to be traded (or captured).” Trump saying that Epstein “stole” 14-year-old Virginia Giuffre from him. The far right isn’t just going to stop at the restoration of full 19th-century white supremacy; they want women to be property again too.

Meanwhile in Russia: state media outlet RIA Novosti:

As @eggerdc.bsky.social suggests here, it's notable that Trump seems more willing to risk making an obviously corrupt deal with the convicted sex trafficker Maxwell, than he is to release the files. What's in those files about Trump...must be something. www.thebulwark.com/p/why-trump-...

Starmer is thinking what we are thinking and what most of the world is thinking.

*Gotham City is so comically corrupt that traditional law enforcement is incapable of fulfilling its basic duties, forcing the honest police commissioner to work with a deranged vigilante because he can’t trust his own department* Communists: This, to me, is capitalist copaganda.

Racism Lore is pretty insane when you really dig into it. For example, the stereotype that black people are lazy comes from rednecks being unable to conceive of alternate reasons why the person you enslaved, tore away from her family, and raped would not want to work for you unless forced to do so.

House Speaker Mike Johnson panned a discharge petition from Reps. Thomas Massie and Ro Khanna designed to force the release of more files on Epstein. The Speaker also claimed that the legislative effort from the two lawmakers was not the reason he adjourned the House earlier than planned.

He’s guilty. You don’t fight this hard to keep something hidden unless it’s really really really bad. Everything they’re doing confirms that what’s in those files/videos/photos is ruinous and abhorrent.

While the Department of Justice is meeting in secret with Ghislaine Maxwell to coach her on testimony, it is hiding from us three discs containing court-authorized recordings of her phone calls. [Source: ABC News] That is the REAL evidence. And this is a cover-up.

That undecided number bah gawd

MAGA: Take a look at the slop that rightwing media has spent the last few days shoveling at you to distract from what we now know is a coverup to hide Trump's presence in the Epstein files. Charlie Kirk, Tim Pool, Jack Posobiec, LibsofTikTok with "BOMBSHELL" news about Obama and Clinton....

This is absolutely not unique to the left but there is something to the idea that a lot of politics these days are a cargo cult and people emulate the last time their ideology was successful without understanding why they did the things they did and why they were successful in the first place

The governing party of the United States is shutting down the federal government to cover-up evidence the president sexually abused children so he can continue trying to implement dictatorship. That's just a true statement about the world!

Trump's press conference today, in summary: DON'T TALK ABOUT EPSTEIN! ARREST ALL MY POLITICAL OPPONENTS! I'M NOT MAD! I'M NOT GUILTY! OBAMA!

I remember when all of the big antifascist accounts spent 3 months saying anyone concerned that the Russians might actually go for it was a hysterical lib stuck in Russiagate and then on Feb 24 they all turned into experts on combined arms warfare and military logistics

Maybe it’s just me, but I will say that I find the normal, Washington D.C. reportorial voice and attitude—worldly, knowing, ironic—off-putting when writing about a child rapist.

Criminal proceedings against a leader in the highest offices of state, for abuse of power or attempts to subvert the rule of law, should not be seen as a national embarrassment. But as an important point in the political development of any country. A moment where democracy prevails over its enemies.

But is the unacceptable Russian attack *really* unacceptable when everyone continues to accept it in the west

FEMA will no longer to door-to-door to assist you in a disaster, but ICE will go door-to-door to kidnap you and turn your life into a disaster. America has its priorities, y'all!
