I so badly wish I could force every single awful MAGA ass hat to watch this clockwork orange style. Part 1 of 3

I cannot tell you how much doubt was consistently directed at the Gaza Health Ministry’s casualty numbers and how much pressure was put on news organizations to couch those numbers as unreliable. Biden himself said they were fabricated! www.haaretz.com/israel-news/...

Let the history books show that when fascism took hold in America, all of traditional journalism stood tall, and with one voice bravely proclaimed, “appear to contradict”

I really think the NYT will consider itself to have done a good job one we get to “President Trump, some critics say the ethnic cleansing and the camps are morally bad. What’s your response?”

Dear god, if I hear how this event was a "political Rorschach test" one more goddamn fucking time... No. It was a murder. Some number of people either refuse to see that or see it and like it. That isn't a fucking Rorschach test.

This seems right

You see, it was his past trauma that made him film himself murdering a woman and calling her dead body a “fuckin bitch.” He was afraid!

I know I’m screaming into the void but anyone who does anything other than completely condemn this vile, misogynist hate crime murder doesn’t deserve to be in our society.

I ran out of my rainbow pride stick tape and had to finish with black tape and accidentally depicted America under Trump 2.0

NYT: "The photons in the video appear to be configured in such a way as to suggest the possibility that the light was reflecting from the subjects into the camera lens in a manner that would be consistent with a story that would appear to possibly conflict with what the Trump administration said."

I don’t even know who the lies are for anymore

Just heard someone on the news say oil was in the “subtext” of the press conference. Even when Trump just says “it’s about the oil” somehow it’s still too far for the media to just say “it’s about the oil.”

Maybe JD Vance should apologize for being white, actually

This is just beautiful. Have a good thing and watch this, you deserve it. youtu.be/KIxAKyioXng?...

God this is such a fucking bummer. The thing they think DEI is is actually what they are. Bari Weiss's talents are: getting rich people to give her money, and cosplaying as a "journalist" by using centrism and faux objectivity language to obscure her persistent bias and sizable incompetence.

YES. We have literally ALL been chanting this, nonstop, IN UNISON, since fucking 2016.

Where are the stories about the man? Is he also getting death threats? Are people questioning his ethics re the need to make a living?

TODAY ON OA (12/19) -how eugenicists, "progressives", and the Klan teamed up to base the American visa system in old-timey racism -how Trump is bringing back 1920s-style "national origins"-based immigration by executive order -a British deli tries to trademark the concept of vegetables

Today's episode of Opening Arguments with Christopher Blackwell is our 2nd interview with an incarcerated author in as many months. I am so proud to be part of a show that is committed to sharing the human voices of those harmed by our most inhumane law & policy directory.libsyn.com/episode/inde...

Big thanks to @seriouspod.bsky.social for having me on to talk about Trump's threats to nonprofits — and a bunch of other, uh, fun stuff.

@openargs.bsky.social Just listened to Matt’s Thanksgiving episode. It was fantastic and uplifting. Thank you!

This week's conversation with author, jorunalist, & convicted murderer John J. Lennon calling in from Sing Sing is one of the most interesting we've ever had. John's new book has so much to say about the true crime industrial complex, and what it is doing to us all www.amazon.com/Tragedy-True...

ngl It would be pretty funny if Bill Clinton turned out to be a total boy scout in this and that KEN STARR was the guilty one.

I don’t know that I believe Schumer engineered the vote, but I guess either he did and those senators took the fall essentially, or he didn’t and that means he couldn’t control his side. Either way, he needs to be fucking gone yesterday. He can go live with the goddamn Baileys

Schumer needs to be gone. There is no world in which this vote makes sense. Either you should never have shut the government down, or you stick to your guns until getting something. Why the fuck do you hold out for a month to ultimately get fucking nothing? This is why people view dems as spineless.

I can’t believe the first thing I thought was “he’s not even doing it right.” What a stupid, stupid world full of idiot fascists ruining our lives. Can we just not

This is so fucking pathetic

This is how mainstream media framing consistently helps the racists. What is the “criticism” NPR is referring to? You’d think Bad Bunny did something wrong that might have invited criticism. The “criticism” is just… racism. Racism is the word you’re looking for.

Fucking abolish ICE. And prosecute them.

Wow. Just wow.

Are you fuckin happy now, FIRE and you other fake ass free speech warriors? This single event was more verified firings over speech than you featured on your dumb ass website in 20 years. Because of the regime you enabled with your bull shit. www.nytimes.com/2025/09/26/u...

Oh this is how we’re doing science now? Ok cool “Thomas Smith to link brain worms to being a pathological lying animal murdering sack of useless nepo baby dogshit in a suit.” I guess I just did a science, make me health secretary.

Netanyahu: ‘These So-Called Genocide Experts Have Probably Never Committed A Genocide In Their Lives’

You cry censorship now that someone was taken off air by government pressure for saying something extremely minor and basically true but WHERE WERE YOU when these other people faced social consequences not from the government for saying disgustingly false racist and/or sexist things? Hypocrite.

They’ve designated antifa as a terrorist organization. In response I’m going to double my monthly donation. WHO’S WITH ME?

The strategy sure seems to be “If we just give the fascists the authoritarian nightmare state that they want, then they’ll leave us alone.”

I've always been someone who is very bothered by when things don't make sense. Falsehoods and lying and irrationality are just extremely hard to deal with. I'm sure that's a lot of you but it isn't everyone. Does it feel like this era is almost being engineered to kill us? Is that by design?

Well the evidence as they've presented it would strongly indicate that he killed Kirk because of Kirk's anti-LGBT views. I didn't think the memes on the casings were compatible with that theory, but it reads like those were completely unrelated and just something he was doing on a separate occasion.

This person is not well. Holy shit.

Hi can anyone help I’m just trying to figure which side is more responsible for the fatal shooting of Charlie Kirk by a 22yo, is it the one that wants gun control? or the one that worships guns as their religion and is responsible for them being easier to get than health insurance… no idea need help

They absolutely never cared about free speech. It isn’t actually bad to want to fire people for their despicable views. The real issue is that for a brief moment, racism, sexism and homophobia were beyond the pale. Now you get fired for not crying hard enough for a racist sexist homophobe who died

We need to have an honest conversation about the violence happening on BOTH sides of the far right

This was before we knew who did it and it sure was exactly correct

Hey. I know there’s no point in even saying it. I know. I’m going to say it anyway. I can’t help it. I’m actually going to yell it. REMEMBER WHEN THEY PRETENDED TO CARE ABOUT FREE SPEECH AND PEOPLE NOT GETTING FIRED FOR EXPRESSING THEMSELVES. They never cared and some of us knew it.

Ok just to get this super clear… HE WASNT KILLED FOR HIS OPINIONS IT WAS NOT A LEFTIST WHO DID IT IT WAS A 4CHAN TYPE SHITPOSTER WHITE 22YO MORMON DUDE WHO BY EVERY INDICATOR WAS RIGHTWING OR NIHILIST

Left media personalities are getting fired, not even for cheering Kirk’s death but for just being mildly critical of him. Right wing media personalities are talking openly about killing people on the left. This asymmetry needs to end.

I am a huge fan of Ezra so I read this and tried to give it a fair hearing. But I largely just don't get what the point of it is. I guess I would say this: If Charlie Kirk was practicing politics the "right way," what does Ezra even think is "the wrong way?"
