...and there, the traditional Democrats are conserving oligarchy, while the modern republicans want to supercharge it...

A woman with a lot of courage!

Ok, även om det SKULLE kosta SN en miljon att redovisa sina lobby-möten, så skulle det vara en rimlig kostnad för att synliggöra och begränsa rika särintressens påverkan på demokratin...

Lefthandedness, autism, and lgbtq+ has basically nothing in common - except for one thing - deviation from the perceived norm. None of it is unnatural, none of it is caused by a disease - it is all simply aspects of diversity within our species.

A helpful hint for all friends in some American cities (and anyone who is under a military occupation): www.bannedinyourstate.com/p/how-to-fig...

...and absolutely no one should be surprised about that choice...

Je regrette des vous dire que c'est similaire en Suède :(

This means one thing above all - Saudi access to Pakistani nukes :(

Especially as the killer turns out to be a Trump-supporter...

Enligt konservatismen ska samhället förändra sig själv och politiken med det. Så när Albin Lee Meldau, som inte direkt är en känd aktivist, får hela Gröna Lund att skrika "Folkmord" - är det dags även för de konservativa att ta bladet från munnen och säga som det är.

Onion, I love you, but your satire hardly work anymore... And the below is NOT TRUE. Political violence ABSOLUTELY has a place in Trumps inner circle, as Mike Pence found out :(

Good to have an SC that does it's job!

The UK government has been found to PARTICIPATE in the genocide by providing the IDF with aerial recconnaisance. The UK government is not neutral in the question of the gravity of Israels warcrimes - the words they "decide" to use are meaningless when it contradicts the overwhelming evidence

Not just any scholars, the International Association of GENOCIDE Scholars!

If US and Russia had spent the 90s in broadbased disarmament, instead of the US looking for situations to flex its military muscles, we would have a very different world today...

This reminds me of the Tukachevsky show trials during Stalins purges. One of the witnesses (a cavalry officer) claimed that Tukachevsky's focus on tanks and mechanised warfare was tantamount to "wrecking" the red army. After which T stated: "I feel like I'm dreaming"...

I grew up in an Air Force family. My dad retired as a Lt. Col. It is infuriating to see Ashli Babbitt receive military funeral honors as the result of dying in an attempt to aid Trump's self-coup attempt. This is 1984-style revisionism. War is Peace, Freedom is Slavery. Insurrection is Patriotism.

Is he the most evil cabinet member? The most incompetent? No, but from willful ignorance and a loathing for enlightenment thinking and the scientific method, probably the most damaging for his field...

The propensity to project their own bad instincts on the opponent seem to be a common feature of the right that transcends national borders...

It seems to tick all the boxes. Are there any political scientists who does not think Trumpism is a fascist movement?

"Blue states will protect abortion rights, support organized labor, and protect individual rights. Red states will allow Christian theocracy, suppress wages, and criminalize free speech, and destroy healthcare." The federal structure is becoming less relevant.

"It’s hard to stay sane right now. There’s not a great blueprint for remaining calm while watching your country die and wondering if you're going to be involuntarily institutionalized... forcibly detransitioned. Or stripped of citizenship." Heres what to do: www.bannedinyourstate.com/p/how-to-fig...

If he goes through with these, and retains a majority after the midterms, he'll be a dictator.

Ni vet Whamaggedon? Har jag alright "överlevt". Men KAJs monster-hit och mello-succé "Bara bada bastu" har jag "lyckats" undvika fram tills nu. Vilket borde motsvara att inte höra "Last Christmas" mellan 1a december och julafton?

Shakespeare would be proud

We should have a progressive tax on assets. The more you have, the more you should contribute!

I think most western countries don’t have a housing crisis at all, they have an asset price crisis 😅 and too many people vote like they’re temporarily disgraced millionaires, rather than to tax wealth hoarders #comic #comics #webcomic

The dismantling of US Democracy and rise of fascism is so fast and extreme, it discourages visits by "non-aryan-looking" tourists (a larger proportion than MAGA expects) and travellers with a consciousness from democratic countries.

Remember: If we allow ourselves to fall into fatalism, or wallow in disappointment, or become resigned to what is rather than what should be, we will lose the long game. The greatest enemy of positive social change is cynicism about what can be changed.

So, she's saying Putin steamrolled in, said what we wanted, got the photo, and left... but Trump does not want to look bad, so we'll see what the official story will be... Did I get that right?

"Om alla skulle jobba mindre så blir alltså Sverige inte rikare, även om man som individ mår bättre" - Ja, varför ska en må bra, när en istället kan vara rik?!?! www.dn.se/sverige/fina...

...and all his enablers.

This would be a clear violation of privacy, and it would not be directed at those who are actually making this particular decision. On the other hand, it exposes hypocrisy among elected officials, and the Trump regime has since long crossed the line of what is decent behaviour in politics.

Vad kommer konsekvenserna bli för Kullgren när han medverkar i en extremist-podd där han låter solklara lögner och förtal stå oemotsagda? Troligtvis ingenting. Högern har en hög tröskel för vad en kan göra innan det blir konsekvenser för ministrar eller andra högdjur. www.etc.se/klimat-miljo...

Nu räcker det! Ulf Kristersson kan inte fortsätta vara tyst och hoppas att detta försvinner. Vår vice statsminister EBT har visat tacksamhet för pågående folkmord. Nu är vi mer än 45 tusen som kräver hennes avgång! Skriv på du också: www.mittskifte.org/petitions/av...

Universally lowered working hours and/or universally raised vacations is a third option

Starmer's Labour is no longer a party for the workers. Farage's various creations has never been, so the UK workers need to look elsewhere for true class representation!

Den gröna omställningen är nästa steg i den industriella revolutionen. Det har Kina fattat. Trumpregimens utför ett rent sabotage av den amerikanska ekonomin, som i Sverige speglas av tidölagets slopande av elbilsbonusen, olika vindkraftsprojekt, och kortsiktiga fossilbränslesubventioner.

Texas is testing their water supply to see if they can detect abortion meds. I shit you not. I love watching this woman’s content. Fiery on every level.

The slogan: "Power to the People!" The policy: UBI

Sounds like idiocracy in the making... Which additional steps before the EPA start recommend Gatorade to water crops?

Friedman's argument: 1) To Reduce Government Bureaucracy; 2) The Efficiency of Free Markets; 3) To End the Welfare Trap; 4) To Enable Charity Work; 5) Justice & Equality: medium.com/basic-income...

Aldrig mer kärnvapen! Jag och bästa @kerstinbergea.bsky.social, ordförande Svenska Freds, skriver i Lokaltidningen Växjö.

This is the problem with extreme inequality - not any "jealousy" from "the poor", but that our democratic system where all votes are equal seize to function.

Tack Max Gustafsson för denna. När Koncerncheferna tjänar 71 ggr mer än medianen, då är det dags för reformer för större jämlikhet och en mer rättvis fördelning av resurserna.

This is such a story for our times, truly. This is how misinformation gets accepted as fact. @robwdavis.bsky.social

We're truly coming to a historical fork in the road, like @scottsantens.com says...

KDs medlemmar. Finns det några kvar bland er som fortfarande tror på fred och medmänsklighet? Då är det nog dags att lämna partiet...

The US is a one-party state - with two parties. In red states, the "real" election is the primary (internal GOP election of candidates), and it is the same in blue states. This means, it is the party members, and not the public, who in reality chooses the representatives.

This may never happen again. Disarmament now!
