Happening now in Broadview—outside Chicago:
A procession of Illinois Handmaid’s, with the Illinois Democratic Women of Cook County, walks in procession to the ICE detention facility.
“Even though we are silent, we are powerful,” an organizer told the group before starting.

It’s hard to believe but there was a cartoon about an immigrant mouse and it was seen as totally fine and not controversial and not woke because it was an aspirational and nice thing about America that people could come here and find a better life

My perhaps controversial assessment is that when you share the propaganda of your enemies to call it out or to mock it… you’re still spreading their propaganda and maybe doing exactly what they hope you’ll do.

It’s truly maddening to witness Red America so enthusiastically applaud the true onset of authoritarianism, especially having spent the last 20 years watching the fringe right freak out about fictional camps and nonexistent train cars with chains.
NEW: ICE is planning to build a shadow deportation network in Texas. A proposal outlines a 24/7 transport operation run by armed contractors—turning Texas into the logistical backbone of an industrialized deportation machine.

The Bachman stuff was where King let himself go for grim endings (ditto his novellas), and it is disorienting to realize in 2025 that the core ideas of two Bachman books aren’t just relevant today but feel like pitches for Hulu reality shows

When one expresses a set of opinions in a group chat, peppers their office in statements of those opinions, and goes to conventions to hang out with people who share those opinions, then those are probably their opinions.

I agree with much of what Alex has to say, but I do think it’s important to remember that these shows are not produced in short enough order to respond to the pace of events in the news today.
We're three entries in to the DCU, and if James Gunn wants to toss discussions of Nazis, war in the Middle East, and MRAs into his work... Well, he needs to start actually saying something about them: comicbookclublive.com/2025/10/03/j...
James Gunn Is Writing About Nazis, War In The Middle East, And MRAs... So Why Is He Avoiding Saying Anything Significant About Them? | Comic Book Club
In Peacemaker, Superman, and Creature Commandos, James Gunn has touched on societal issues, but hasn't delved into them in any significant way.

I know there's a corporate line to think about, but if James Gunn is going to write about countries invading Middle Eastern-looking countries in his movies and then Nazi dimensions in his TV shows, he needs to own up to them not being entirely divorced from reality variety.com/2025/film/ne...
![To go back to my earlier question, you obviously wrote this show not knowing what the outcome of the presidential election was going to be. But how has it been for you, knowing that this twist was coming, and watching the real world edge closer to Earth X more than anybody would have anticipated?
[Long pause] I think I don’t know how to answer the question. Obviously, there are many things in the world I’m not happy with. I’m not so narcissistic as to think of the world in relationship to my TV show. I mean, there’s weird things with this show. There were weird things with “Superman.” Absolutely 100% of that movie was written and done before anything ever happened between Israel and Palestine, and everyone continues to refuse to believe that that’s not what it’s about. It’s not. It just isn’t. You can take whatever you want from that, to mean what you want, but I didn’t write it to be a stand in for Israel and Palestine.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:opm7kjzippurg433jh7rt4ax/bafkreif5cnq3umhqqcxnybqfxtdert3hqsz7fkk2b6igzva536q3he2jji@jpeg)
