It was useful in Russia to see how many of Umberto Eco's "features of fascism" were happening under Putin. I never thought I'd be applying it to the USA, but instead of calling Trump names, go down the list and try it yourself.

#TPS ends today for our Afghan friends & allies. That means, if that was the only status they have, they are no longer authorized to work here. It means they can be removed from the country by ICE. It means we have betrayed them. #SomethingAboutMary #AfghanEvac

Okay, about REBEL MOON: NEMESIS. I heard some chatter about Rebel Moon before watching the film, but tried to avoid a lot of it. I like a lot of Zack Snyder's films and love some of them, so I wanted to see it without expectations. My family sat down to watch it together. 1/

It's ridiculous this was even necessary. The Annals of Internal Medicine has rejected HHS Secretary RFK Jr's demand to retract the Danish vaccine study of 1.2 million children, finding 'no evidence of scientific misconduct.' (1/2) reuters.com/business/healt…"

American soldiers roll out a red carpet for Putin and a month later he starts flying drones into NATO. Appease dictator nations and this is what you get.

It’s September 2025. The president has declared a national emergency to deport migrants and order extrajudicial killings; he imposes taxes and deploys troops by emergency decree; the Supreme Court greenlights his usurpations via its emergency docket. Perhaps it’s time for

buddy you can’t complain about the left comparing you to Nazis and post “THIS WILL BE OUR REICHSTAG FIRE” at the same time lmao *YOU* are comparing *YOURSELF* to Nazis!!! The call is coming from inside the house!!!

CNN’s David Axelrod: “We can go one of two ways in this country. We can, embrace this notion that somehow we're at war and where there'll be more killing and more violence. Or we can learn from this moment. I — you mentioned history. I was a kid when, we went through a period of

Just days ago, a prominent rightwing influencer called for a Black Democratic mayor to be executed, but sure, tell me more about how it's 'the left' that is responsible for violent rhetoric in the US. Sheesh.

I remember that morning, was in Port-au-Prince. Ran to the cafeteria where the TV was on in time to see the last plane hit. Sent everyone home.Remember our NATO allies responding so strongly, the ONLY time Article 5 was declared was in defense of the U.S. Never forget our allies.

“…there is a darkness reaching like rust into everything around us. We let it grow, and now it's here. It's here and it's not visiting anymore. It wants to stay. The Empire is a disease that thrives in darkness; it is never more alive than when we sleep.”

Gavin Newsom: “People are scared to death of this guy. It’s the appaling silence, it’s the complicity. It makes me sick. Is it worth it to you? To watch this 249 years just vanish in real time? We’re losing our moral authority by the hour as he continues to exercise his formal

Obama: “What if I sent the National Guard into Texas and said I don’t care what Governor Abbott says, and just kind of took over?” If he did that, Fox News would’ve run a 96-hour meltdown titled “OBAMA’S COUP.” But when Trump does it? Silence.

A little bit of history worth knowing. If it’s history, they are trying to wipe it out, to make room for the absurd tales of eternal innocence that bring fascism and bloodshed closer.

Pope Leo XIV responding to the US bishops’ statement on the detention and deportation of migrants:  “No one has said that the United States should have open borders. I think every country has a right to determine who and how and when people enter. But when people are living good

My dad witnessed armed men in masks and fatigues pull people out of vehicles and shoot civilians without caring about bystanders. He also fought against those people. They were the Khmer Rouge

When Ian Austin, an Army veteran, was arrested for protesting ICE in Minneapolis, he says he was detained and shackled for hours. “We're turning into something that I can't even begin to respect, and something that I literally went to war—or they told me I went to war—to fight

Consider how much of our culture war is waged in the name of protecting “the children.” Books are banned, boats blown of out the water, moral panics inflamed. But consider as well, what is happening in real-time, in our name, in our country, to actual children.
