These "kids" include a Vermont state senator, an aide to a New York Assemblyperson, and the general counsel for the New York Young Republicans. As Politico notes: "Many of the chat members already work inside government or party politics, and one serves as a state senator."

This is the result of a lot of people pretending racism is one of the greatest taboos in our culture while failing to address racism substantively. People are appalled by the idea of being called racist while being totally committed to upholding racism throughout society.

Every time a Democrat gets caught on tape saying like “Some Trump voters are racist” we have a national scandal and JD Vance demands an entirely new kind of apology and meanwhile every Republican group chat is like “Good morning fellow SS members. Who’s ready to respect Hitler today?”

I think the idea of "cancel culture" persists mainly because it conveniently is some outside force acting on someone rather than them torching their reputation all on their own

the entire conservative project these days is built off of making it illegal to dislike them or say rude things about them even in private

it is not enough to be in charge, or even feared, they must be adored

I believe that the far left is preying on the desperation of trans people in the search of cannon fodder for their revolutionary fantasies and it is hurting people. We cannot afford to eschew electoralism, nor can we take peace for granted.

What is with your constant punching left recently? "The left" and especially trans leftists have literally zero power. Do you not think that this energy is best used elsewhere?

Transsexualism as we conceive of it in America is bourgeois, the product of a society that venerates the freedom of an individual to choose. There is no designer vagina under communism, I'm sorry.

Transsexuals are systematically among the poorest, least employed, most mistreated on the job, most pushed into underground economy populations there is. The irony of this next to that reality is just so stunning that I can only conceive of this tweet as an intentional psychic attack.

"Transsexuality is bourgeois" reflects the common belief that medicine, technology, and any improvements to quality of life are owed to capitalism. The reality is that capitalism holds these improvements hostage for the sake of wealth.

Between this, Musk’s MechaHitler making porn, & payment processors punishing sex workers/artists that make adult material, I hope it’s more obvious than ever what the wealthy who believe they rule over us think.

“We can do whatever we want, including plagiarized porn, and the marginalized cannot.”

ICE is randomly targeting peaceful protesters because the point is to terrorize the public into accepting martial law.

Indiscriminate attacks send the message that there’s nothing you can do to stay safe.

The regime wants you to cower at home and cede the streets of your city to their control.

Yes your taxes should support disabled people.

They should support homeless people.

They should support those living in poverty, children and the elderly.

This is literally the purpose of taxes, and I would far rather support those who need it than continue to enrich the elite.

To be clear:

LA County has declared a state of emergency BECAUSE OF the federal government.

The Feds, LA County is (correctly) saying, have CAUSED the emergency.

This is a striking political moment of internal collapse. Local govts feeling compelled to protect their ppl from … their own govt.

Los Angeles County officials voted on Tuesday to declare a state of emergency over ongoing federal immigration raids.

Don’t listen to the BMI chart, it’s a bunch of crap. Your healthiest weight is what you feel healthiest. Im at the “proper” weight of 110 and I feel extremely lethargic, was happier and healthier at 140.
