"Comedy 'deflates the strongman’s image as invincible'.... And an authoritarian regime...depends on that image: it leaves the other pillars of society – big companies, law firms, universities – too scared to oppose it." @anatosaurus.bsky.social in @theguardian.com

"The future is made of the decisions that we take together." @anatosaurus.bsky.social speaking with @andreapitzer.bsky.social

“It's not the job of a good message to say what's popular. It's the job of a good message to make popular what we need said, because we have an agenda we need to enact, and because that's how we win.” @anatosaurus.bsky.social with @andreapitzer.bsky.social

I got a chance to talk with the splendid @anatosaurus.bsky.social, who laid out out why the message of moderation from reactionary centrists is lethal and explained how to build a better country by reframing our public conversations.

@anatosaurus.bsky.social on @themaybe.org with @alixdunn.com

Tech execs are promising us a shiny future with AI - it'll make art, revolutionize work, and even cure cancer. It's a sharp contrast to our current reality, with AI threatening human artists, devaluing labor around the world, and polluting people's lungs next to gas turbine-powered data centers.

✊🏾 It’s #BraveOfUS to strike, march, and protest this regime’s abductions of our loved ones. 💼 It’s #BraveOfUS to move to a new place to create a better life for our families. ❤️ It’s #BraveOfUS to show up for our friends and neighbors who are immigrants.

It's brave of us to make a way out of no way at all. #BraveofUS Watch the latest episode of The Raid with @johncarlosfrey.bsky.social and @anatosaurus.bsky.social

“The notion that standing up to this regime, whether you were born in the US or very much outside of it, is courageous,” @anatosaurus.bsky.social told The LA Local. “The idea is, we are gathering in Los Angeles to ridicule the ruler — to show, not tell — that we are brave.” #BraveOfUS

The pattern of authoritarians using war for their own ends appears throughout history. War is used to redirect attention away from domestic scandals, political losses, and unpopular policies. It often creates an atmosphere where expanding state power can be framed as national defense

"From Epstein to ICE to the war on Iran, this regime commits crimes agains humanity...this regime is determined to destroy the lives of children, families and anyone who stands up for our freedoms." @anatosaurus.bsky.social @mikepod.bsky.social

Great to see folks increasingly use "Epstein Class" as moniker. More potent and accurate still would be "Epstein Regime" as it's not merely a cohort but rather tied to the folks in political power and determined to rule over us.

"This is a regime of the bullies, by the bribes, for the billionaires that's hellbent on destroying us - and as I like to call them, they are a MAGA Murder Regime." @anatosaurus.bsky.social with @gregsargent.bsky.social on The Daily Blast @newrepublic.com

Media challenge: Stop using the word "immigration" in phrases about abduction, assault, murder, and so on. Immigration means the movement of people into a country for purposes of residency. What's being "enforced" here is terror & crimes against humanity.

“What I try to do is remember that the ultimate aim of an authoritarian movement is to erode our will to resist...Because as long as we’re still resisting, refusing and ridiculing them - all of which are essential - it’s costly for them.” @anatosaurus.bsky.social on Beacon Podcast

Abolish ICE. There’s no reforming it. There’s no compromise. There’s only one way to rein in ICE’s terror campaign. Abolish it.

"End the abductions, end the murders, close the camps and bring them home." @anatosaurus.bsky.social with @mikepod.bsky.social
