Exactly 80 years ago tomorrow (Nov. 30, 1945), German submarine commander Heinz-Wilhelm Eck and two of his former subordinates on the U-852 were shot by Allies in Hamburg for killing the survivors of a ship they had sunk. Pete Hagueseth should be very worried. www.executedtoday.com/2009/11/30/1...

“Cancellation limbo”: when you’re definitely not cancelled but not as celebrated as you used to be. This is one reason why “cancel culture” discourse is so tiresome: a lot of people are using it to mean “my life was affected in some negative way by my actions”

I went to an "ojos" training tonight hosted by New Orleans DSA and Union Migrante and thought I'd pass on new things I learned:

1. Low/old info ICE sighting posts are wreaking havoc on immigrant communities. Basically, incomplete or old info is actively harmful (even if ppl have good intentions)

Exclusive: Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth gave an order to “kill everybody” in the first strike on suspected drug boats in the Caribbean. After two men survived, the mission commander ordered a second strike to comply with Hegseth’s instructions, according to two sources.

Trump makes the outrageous claim that “most” immigrants, which include over 25 million U.S. citizens, “are on welfare, from failed nations, or from prisons, mental institutions, gangs, or drug cartels.”

As insulting as the “deplorables” comment, and on Thanksgiving day no less.

The printers have subscription fees like do you know how crazy that is? You can bring that thing in your house, plug it up with the ink and toner YOU bought and a little pop up will be like “yeah so the monthly or annual?”

Capitalism broke itself
I’ve not heard of a Black Friday deal worth leaving the house for since the 2010s. We all got flat screens. There’s no new consoles. The printers got subscription fees. The phones aren’t going down. Couldn’t tell you what ppl are buying but junk they don’t need

National Guard aren’t ICE or Border Patrol. They didn’t sign up looking to harass and repress people. They’re volunteers, part time, in case of emergency. They didn’t ask for this.

West Virginia National Guard shouldn’t have been deployed in Washington DC.

Victims of the shooter and the president.

Let's not confuse the people giving the stupid orders with the people who have to deal with following them, who are often good and decent people.

There you go. Odd that he's not even planning to exploit it. I wonder if the family said he's not welcome.
Holy shit! Trump has no decency or compassion.

A reporter asked if he planned to attend the funeral of Sarah Beckstrom, the National Guard member who just died.

Instead of offering condolences, he said he would “consider it” and pivoted to bragging about his margin of victory in West Virginia.

Pretty curious about the terms of the deployment. Any extra pay, what kind of death benefits from dying in a pointless deployment creating an environment or further resentment and oppression. Expect the administration will further try to skip put of what is owed to the families of the soldiers
