Can we admit now that the center is powerless against fascism, and that a new course must be charted?

"When authoritarian leaders destroy the symbols of democracy, they are preparing to destroy its substance. Their goal is to raise doubts about who this country belongs to, and make us believe that it doesn’t belong to us."
Authoritarians don’t get the last word
That's why we are fighting back on every front.

Reality check:
This is authoritarianism.
It’s not “almost” or “on the pathway to” authoritarianism.
We are SQUARELY in it.
Elections are NOT a solution for authoritarianism.
All one has to do is learn history.
It’s NOT a secret but the politicians are making it one.
WE are the only solution.

Thei wante us talkinge alone on our phones to a demon thei created, and not goinge places and being wyth each othir yn art and joy and communitye. Thei want cinemas to shut downe, and Broadway to go darke. Thei want wryteres to stop makinge a living. Thei want to sell us hell and have us pay for it.

Trump's FCC just scrapped a Biden-era cap on the maximum price of prison phone calls between inmates and their families.

Telecom and private prison companies — which donated to Trump's campaign — lobbied for the rollback.

This regime's cruelty and corruption knows no bounds.

Remember the DOGE fiasco, EFFICIENCY?
Now there is no more automatic renewal of vetted work permits. All work permits will require new submissions for every employee taking close to a year or more to approve. In the interim they will be fired because they have no permit.
Business & farms, good luck.

The UAW made history last year by organizing a Southern auto plant for the first time since the 1940s.

They might do so again, after authorizing a strike at the VW plant.

It takes enormous courage to fight for your rights on the job in a hostile environment. Solidarity.

A poll from the journal Nature found that 75% of researchers in the U.S. are considering leaving the country. That includes a man who’s been dubbed the "Mozart of Math." (This PBS story on the scientific brain drain is heartbreaking & ominous for medicine, imo.) www.youtube.com/watch?v=yLvO...
