But, whether one is relating to authoritarian parents, teachers, and managers or whether one has experience with a military chain of command, authoritarians always intensely hate pushback.
Yes, it is also a trait associated with certain neurotypes, mine included. That doesn’t excuse anything.

Every US military officer swears an oath when commissioned.
That oath is to NOT to obey all orders.
It is to preserve, protect & defend the Constitution against all enemies foreign & domestic.
Their 1st obligation is to obey the law & the law prohibits the deliberate killing of unarmed citizens.

every neoliberal policy analyst wants to "trim the fat" of society until the lean times come. community level resilience, redundancies, etc are good actually
When power went out across all of Puerto Rico on 16 April, a lot of the lights in the town of Adjuntas stayed on. A combination of experimental microgrids, solar panels, and storage kept power on for many businesses and residents.

Could Microgrids Be Puerto Rico's Answer to Endless Blackouts?
Meanwhile, feds redirect $365 million away from solar toward grid fixes

The thread covers some of this but not enough.
What it misses is that Jeffries is busy coming up with slogans while he is telling his members not to take action.
The problem is the lack of action. And keeping busy with slogans now is an error.

The problem with that slogan right now, however, is that it reads as tone deaf while everything is collapsing around us and those in charge are looting, cheating, and destroying everything. I'm no political strategist, but it feels like messaging should reflect that first.

27 hours to keep a genocide survivor housed ‼️
Ahmed is an art therapist specialized in treating trauma in Palestinian children. And you’ve kept him housed for a YEAR while he waits for his student visa—stateless without rights in Egypt, this, too, is lifesaving.

Worth noting that "I don't care, I'll keep stealing from them", is this asshole's reaction to authors discussing poverty and burnout due to relentless theft of their IP, which often takes them months of work to produce and may translate to pennies' income per day of labor.
Hell's too good.

For your blocking consideration, asshole "protech leftist" @dylanschenker.com, who apparently doesn't understand the difference between "free" and "stolen goods", and who, being a PhD student, also happens not to be aware of the existence of libraries, sales, or "stuff your ereader" promotions.

This is identical to Russia invading Ukraine. Illegally invading a country for their resources and likely killing thousands—if not more—is immoral and should not be supported by anyone with any shred of moral conscience.

-Sen Kelly has flown nearly 40 *combat missions* as a pilot.
-He's done 375+ carrier landings (Jeesh!)
-He's been in space as astronaut.
-He's flown 50+ different kinds of aircraft
And Hegseth and Trump are picking fight about valor with him?
