I will never forgive the ayahuaca aunties for calling COVID restrictions and vaccine mandates “1984” and “Soviet Russia” then voting for a guy who names the Institute of Peace after himself in the middle of explaining his war crimes

it finally happened -- a good student of mine vanished from class about six weeks ago. this student reappeared today and explained that they had been in ICE detention in another state during that time. ICE needs to end. ICE needs to end. ICE needs to end.

I keep making this point. There is no difference between modern anti trans arguments and the positions Nazis held, except the language they were expressed in.

If JK Rowling herself doesn't separate her art from her transphobia, and has said she sees every Harry Potter fan as a fan of her transphobia, and uses every dollar she makes to fund transphobia, I need people to stop insisting they "separate art from artist" because it's beyond disingenuous atp

Nick Fuentes has been working overtime to sanitize his image and present himself as a uniter of the left and right. Very clearly using language often associated with the left. This is part of a larger effort by the anti-Zionist antisemitic far right to recruit people on the left.

In this Ohio town, it was tradition: Latin mass, biscuits and gravy at Bob Evans, and then down to the old marina to shoot a bunch of fishermen and claim they were running drugs. But now the woke mob wants to take all that away.

Opinion | I know Trump and Hegseth's murders of Venezuelan fishermen are illegal. But if I don't allow them to do it, I'll be primaried by someone who also allows them to do it—but who lacks my chummy relationship with the DC press corps.

I expect people who have used their industry status to hurt other people to go the fuck away Yet it seems to be a constant cycle of "hasn't the person who hurt people suffered enough? what more do you want?" I want them to show actual fucking remorse, not fulfil a checklist of duties they made up.

If Trump and the Republicans invade Venezuela, it means America has invaded Venezuela. How did we feel about those Germans that didn’t want Hitler to invade Poland? Remember them? No— as the world saw it, it was Germany that invaded Poland, and it will be America that invades Venezuela.

Oooh. More "Gen X is fucked up because they had the most lead in their environment" bullshit. Or, it might just be we were raised in the fucking 80s on such things as "Greed is Good" and that warped a lot of perceptions. Not to mention that the 80s were when Trump was set up as an Idol of Success.

the nazis and pro-nazi media blamed all the ills of german society on jewish people. it was how they primed the pump before the holocaust. if u dehumanize people and say they cause all the problems, it becomes easy to exterminate them. the right is doing the same thing to immigrants.

Acquaint yourself with the major antisemitic conspiracy theories. Don't automatically discount it when left Jews tell you that you've done a dogwhistle, even if you didn't intend it. These are trencherous waters. Oppose genocide, *and.* Do not do the Nazis' work for them.

One time I genuinely heard someone say that people were less homophobic in the 2000s and I was like "we had to invent an entire separate word to describe straight men who gave a shit about their appearance to let people know they weren't gay." Not to mention all the, you know, actual hate crimes.

One of the strangest aspects of aging that they don't warn you about is watching as history gets rewritten right in front of your face and people 20 years younger than you confidently tell you about something you lived through and get it completely wrong.
