I really think that some of these progressives and moderates are trying to find a safe space in being controlled opposition. Like how it works in Orbans Hungary or pre-Navalny Russia.

It’s just taunting at this point.

Weird calling what we can see with our own eyes extremist. Guess that’s how hasbara works.

When someone says milks I think of those tiny little milk cartons they used to give out in school. But then I realized if my wife said that now, do we mean almond, soy and/or oat.

This has given me an existential crisis.

I can’t only stand a bit of Jo Jo’s at a time because they’re so stupid.

Every bullshit “indicator” they were using, the US and most of the hegemons have them demonstrably worse.

Weird what happens when you look long instead of the capitalists dragging you to only look quarter to quarter.

Also though, when you see enough of this shit, it can get you activated with no real place to put it.

You were right of course, they didn’t mass arrest or shoot but they picked off a few, like that middle-aged ww that was dressed like a dick they dog piled.

Racism will override any and all class consciousness. It’s pathological.

lol, I know exactly what you mean, but I usually save those for reading people for filth. You must be a practiced orator.

YES, staccato and percussive.

And we conjugate them differently. Like Black fuck is an irregular verb.

The diction and elocution of WASP cussing is amusing to me.

They say. Every. Letter.

Weaponized decorum. Means testing. Procedural racism. The proper way to maintain the social stratum.

Seriously, if there was a single word for the “for the people”

I sense this might liberal brain rot, as righting populism based on xenophobia isn’t the only populism.

There has to be a long German word for “being tired of everyone else’s surprise” after everything ICE has been doing that has been previously reserved for mouth Black, Indigenous, Hispanic and pro-Palestinian folks.

Did they do that to white women when Roe fell during the Biden admin?

AI must be eating those reference sites folks click on for breakfast. Sites like Stack Overflow, AllRecipes.com, Urban Dictionary have to had their visits plummet.
