Idk man, I think its more that they never showed that face to you

The US wasn't always fascist, unless you were Panama, Guatemala, the Phillipines, or Korea

The Republicans weren't always Klansmen, unless you were black

Politicians weren't always evil rapists, unless you were a woman

And so on

I am going to solve the "have young Republicans always been like this" discourse in one sentence: While it has long been possible to correctly identify their racism, either because you were politically educated or racially minoritized, they are now racist in a way that even white liberals can tell.

A group of far right assholes have showed up to protest at David Douglas high school after students allegedly pushed back at a formation of a turning point chapter. School is out & they are outnumbered by predominantly Black & Brown students roasting the fuck out of them.

Every political account that names itself after an extremely polarizing figure has the most centrist milquetoast takes and the most blood spitting revolutionaries are always called "kittycorner" or "onenighttacostand".

Stop saying she was tortured. You are the only one saying it. She was mistreated and abused. That does not meet the legal definition. Just stop spreading lies

Like it is totally tragic that they don't care what white liberals think of them anymore and that the balance of power is such that they are able to do even more of this shit consequence-free but they were always calling us monkeys and hanging nooses at school and getting away with it. that matters.

I dont think so. Pretty sure Peter is saying the substance was different between periods, and this person is saying it was the language and volume that was different.

I also disagree with Peter, I just don't think he found himself in the quiet group conversations that preceded online group chats.

No. Neither of us understand a cartoon, but I didn't ask a computer to explain it to me, and then loudly proclaim that it's the truth of things

Well.. I think we can all agree, Bernstein was wrong on this one

After Engels's death in 1895, Bernstein began to publicly articulate his revisionist views. In his most influential work, Evolutionary Socialism (1899), he rejected the Hegelian dialectical method and disputed the Marxist predictions of the inevitable collapse of capitalism, the disappearance of the middle class, and the increasing immiseration of the proletariat.

It's a siege movie, at his house. The driveway has a signpost saying "Casa Blanca." The camera shows it every 20 minutes, so everyone knows the movie is Casa Blanca

“Young Republicans weren’t this bad in the 00s”

Make me a sandwich, make me a sandwich, make me a sandwich

Over and over and over until they completely drove women out of spaces, and that’s like the low end.

Y’all are so god damn desperate not to learn and make connections. It’s pathetic.

Didnt MAGA beat up a bunch of Capitol cops?

Pretty sure I remember something about that

Mike Johnson: "They berated a Capitol police officer, screamed at him. He was merely standing his post. It shows, again, their disdain for law enforcement, the Democrats, screaming, assaulting officers."

You’ll notice that new developments in generative AI are always accompanied by new ways of depicting women without their consent—undermining their autonomy and harassing them—almost like it’s a pillar of the technology and its evolution

When I can't reply, it's literally the first thing I check. This is an artifact from Twitter.

There's no reason not to know about it while also being a shitflinger on the internet
