I literally spent 10 min translating Lula’s speech about Palestine to English. I just need every single one of my gringo friends to listen to this man in order to maybe restore their faith in politics. This right here is a politician. This is why we voted for him. And personally, I’ll do it again.

Fight the right wing billionaire that's a whiny baby by taking away his money.

Once again, folks, when we push back they back down.

These people are morons

Until today, I had never heard of this man. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Raoul_W... This is a man who, after hearing his story on the Behind the Bastards episode here, youtu.be/jJPkLLwrzu8?... I feel was born 100% pure balls. He used little more than pure charisma and bluff to save so many Jews (1/2)

TikTok will be co-owned by China and Trump allies, Paramount was sold to a pro-Trump billionaire who's also set to buy Warner Bros, X is owned by an apartheid-bred fascist, WaPo and Meta are owned by Trump-cowering billionaires, and Murdoch owns the Fox empire. Here's why media has a liberal bias.

This shit makes me so mad because people don't understand how much power we have over these companies and the only thing we need to do is not give them money. The only thing we need to do is to not do anything. It's the easiest shit! *wearily* collective action does work, it really does

I’m watching Judgment at Nuremberg, a film I haven’t seen before, oddly enough. Richard Widmark already moved me near to tears with his opening statement. I’m sure this will be an emotional roller coaster like watching Schindler’s List was.

For a few years, and I imagine it's still floating around, I saw people pass along this absurd image claiming Jews just kinda went into the Holocaust like sheep. At every case I've not held back and called out sharers for being morons. Check out the testimony of the Eichmann trial. We fought back.

God, the motherfucker is even branding this immigration "gold card" as the "Trump gold card" like this is his country and nobody else's.

The biggest weenies ever to take public office.

Recent emmy-winning Andor writer Dan Gilroy just penned a column about the current Trumpian assault on free speech: deadline.com/2025/09/ando...

BAHAHAHAHAHAHA I’m a layman and I know this kinda shit. How did these people ever pass the bar?

It is not exaggeration to point out that this is something that was done early in Hitler’s regime. Silencing dissidents is key to the power grab.

There is an evolving through line from this Reichstag Fire moment to Night of the Long Knives to Kristallnacht. It can happen here, and it may well be on its way.

Gotta keep at it

In less desolate news, Freyja and I just got home from seeing @dragonforce.com and @powerwolfmetal.bsky.social tonight! What incredible sets by both bands! And Seeing Powerwolf's singer get his robe caught on the mic stand was hilarious. Thanks for a great time, all!

Let's do this, people. It works.

We should absolutely be mad at ABC and Disney. But it’s important that part of what factors into the Kimmel thing is that the owners of Nexstar and Sinclair, which control an absurd amount of local stations nationwide, are extremely hard right conservatives who pushed to cancel Kimmel thru refusal.

Of course we were right. We took him seriously, so many did not. Always believe a fascist when he tells you who he is.

About every local network affiliate across the board is part of a package of stations owned by a conservative. Our TV speech has been hanging by a thread for decades as these guys built their portfolios. And now they’ll do whatever their god wants.

If US Congress doesn't hold removal hearings for FCC director Carr, they'll continue to prove to be feckless. Kimmel's speech is protected. ABC chickened out when Carr threatened them over political speech, which is a direct violation of the first amendment. As for ABC, piracy is civil disobedience.

Trans rights are not the rights of a tiny minority, trans rights are everyone’s rights to self-determination, control of our bodies, and a society where opportunity and aesthetics are not restricted by sex assigned at birth You should support and defend trans people because trans people are people

This is a fantastic thread and I need every single centrist opinion writer and Dem leadership member to read it (I know they won’t, but they need to)

Absolutely do not sign up for any protests.

One of these rich dudes invested in a food company with all proceeds going to kids in need. The other started Sundance Institute, boosting the lives of countless artists. Hey modern rich dudes, don't be a typical greedy AI crypto-prick, be like these two.

Really surprising that there’s just nothing to be had here, at least based on the info available. We should presumably learn more during trial, but don’t count on it.

RIP to an absolute legend. Do yourself a favor and watch an under the radar film of his from 1992 called Sneakers; its tech is dated obviously, but it’s got a stellar cast including Sidney Poitier, River Phoenix, and Donal Logue in his first role.

Ok fellow Michiganders, it’s happening here. Whitmer would likely never sign such a measure, but its existence is enough of a problem. Flood them with calls. All of them.

Everybody gamely says “Vance hosted Kirk’s podcast” instead of “the regime officially turned the major channel into state-controlled media just as it began its violent crackdown on any opposition or dissident messages.”

Sure is noteworthy that apparently AOC is the only Dem who is pushing back against the accusations of violence from the right, or making any kind of note that the Kirk shooter is a righty. Democrats are going to let us all burn and wonder why it happened. THE. RIGHT. MAKES. THEIR. OWN. FACTS.

Championing the legacy of “free speech” by trying to destroy anyone who doesn’t agree with him

They’re treating the murder of Charlie Kirk like the 9/11 terror attacks, as an excuse to go to war. But this time they’re going to war against the US.

The free speech activist who built a list of professors he worked to get fired for their speech must be celebrated for his support of free speech, and anyone who quotes his speech accurately in context will be fired and/or face state punishment by the champions of free speech, do I have that right?

losing my mind at this dispatch from the college roommates group chat

Matthew Dowd was fired from MSNBC for saying Charlie Kirk was "divisive". Brian Kilmeade called for the execution of unhoused people with mental illness through involuntary lethal injection. And kept his job

Whereas Michigan's largest non-university hospital system, @corewellhealth.bsky.social opted to bow down to fascism and hatred and complied in advance.

it's absolutely critical to understand in this moment that people aren't largely reacting to who Charlie Kirk was as a person, but who they knew him as because of what tiny pieces of him got clipped out and stuck in their newsfeeds.

Reactions like this are why I wrote my article. I presented his comments IN CONTEXT, and provided tons of receipts. Charlie Kirk was not a civil person. www.erininthemorning.com/p/we-must-no...

Dang, this is where it's really at.

A reminder in the wake of people civilizing Charlie Kirk, a man who wanted to kill trans people, among others. Trans women are women. Trans men are men. Trans rights are human rights. Charlie Kirk and his ilk are wrong and deserve no sympathy.

This man will not be fired for calling for the murder of American citizens, yet multiple journalists/reporters/teachers lost their job for accurately reporting things Charlie Kirk actually said and stood for. But it’s the “violent left” that’s the problem

Extremist murders by ideology, 2013 to 2022. www.pbump.net/o/reassessin...

gex is right

The Nation pulls NO punches, from @espiers.bsky.social "There's no requirement to take part in this whitewashing campaign. Refusing to join in doesn’t make anyone a bad person. It’s a choice to write an obituary that begins “Joseph Goebbels was a gifted marketer and loving father to six children.”

WSJ writers giving themselves whiplash the instant it comes out it was a Fuentes boy mad at Kirk for not being Far Right enough instead of the Luigi Trangione they had hoped for

any outlet that reported the “pro-trans ideology on bullet casings” thing owes the public an apology and an explanation if you are serious about turning down the temperature, start by showing some shame and regret for your role in turning it up in the first place by allowing yourself to be played

So yeah. As if she couldn’t get any worse.

From me, a list of Trump supporters who killed, or tried to kill, Democrats and opponents of Trump in recent years (since the right are now claiming all the political violence is from the left!) Receipts: zeteo.com/p/charlie-ki...
