the default position in the media is that conservatives are real americans and anyone who disagrees is out of the mainstream
Here's a gift link to the New York Times' coverage of the initial Tea Party rallies in April 2009 which inspired the media to treat it like a massive movement.

Check out how tiny the crowds were:

Philly: 200
DC: "several hundred"
Boston: 500
Austin: 1,000
Houston: 2,000

The president of the United States posted a video of him defecating on the American people. Many in my profession normalized it. This is a big reason why we are where we are.

Bali starlings are making a wild comeback under new Indigenous-led protections: the iconic songbird’s survival rate has more than doubled, with breeding pairs now re-established in several villages, reversing decades of poaching and habitat loss.

The entire "free speech on campus" moral panic was manufactured to blackmail us into making space in intellectual life for bigots and charlatans who couldn't get there on their own merits. Its a DEI scheme for fascism. Congratulations to everyone who took it at face value.
“Following his lecture, Yarvin will debate the legendary British historian David Starkey on history and the future of conservatism.” Everything about this is so cursed. Masks off at the University of Oxford.

you don't beat fascism by having zero standards and letting fascism lite into the tent

"purity tests" "circular firing squad" "the left eat their own" are such bullshit phrases.

people disagree on politics! that's how it works.

deal with it instead of whining about marginalized people correctly pointing out that certain "compromises" only strengthens fascism

the media has made a huge deal about Neutrality and Not Editorializing and it all falls apart when you realize they are too afraid to publish a factual description of the video Trump posted

RFK is undoing human subjects protections so he can conduct placebo trials of vaccines. That means infecting people knowingly. I wonder who will “volunteer” for these trials? If history is any guide, a lot of incarcerated and other powerless people.
Dismantling the Institutional Review Board (IRB), that oversees all human subjects research, is bad. Really bad.
The entire HR department at the CDC is gone. Everyone at the IRB, which makes sure studies are conducted ethically and rigorously, and the ethics office, which oversee conflicts of interest for CDC leaders and advisory committee members, were also let go.

A year before “What’s Going On,” Curtis Mayfield’s 1970 release “Curtis” was an incendiary and insightful look into, indeed what was going on. “Move Up,” “If There’s A Hell Below We’re All Going to Go, “Miss Black America” and this one, among others. A must must must listen.

The generals said "sir are you sure you want to fly the diarrhea bomber over the AI city with the nonsense billboards" and I said [zesty] we've got to shit the hell out of 'em. And no one has more loose stool than me. And actually that was very smart. Making myself the diarrhea president was smart.

We don’t take volunteers (our work is based on very close relationships) but we’re always down to offer advice on where to plug in or how to start a project supporting your unhoused neighbors.

We even put together a collection of resources on starting a group:

If showing up in community today felt great, imagine how cool it would be to always be working on building new worlds & resisting fascism!

Wherever you are, there’s probably projects to plug into. If there isn’t, you can get together with some friends or even just by yourself & start doing things.
