If your enemy can’t see why they are the enemy, let them dig their own grave. Our duty is not to save them, but to outlast them and build what comes after.

The Battlefield Aimergate bullshit radicalized me.

I watched these idiots get the game they've been begging for, and they immediately start crashing out the moment a tgirl is better than them. Fuck every single fascist LARPdork in gaming. I want them all to understand they're unwelcome.

oof sorry, unfollowing now. I was thrilled to learn that she was also a crab but I had no idea she was climbing up the side of the bucket

Jubilee is basically just commodified outrage porn. There is no "engagement" to be had with a fascist besides the phrase "fuck you." When we start treating it like a battle, like the way they have been for 10 years, we'll start winning elections again.

We don't engage with them. We don't give them a 20 minute long deboonking episode on Jubilee. The extent of conversations with these people should start with "fuck" and end with "you."

We don't. We mourn the people who fell to the Dark Side and press on. We form a new deal left coalition and tell every single fascist in this country to eat shit.

I've watched members of my own family become steadily more racist and more comfortable expressing their racism over the last nine years, and I just don't know what to do about it. How do we come back from this? How do we put this genie back in the bottle?

LETS DEBATE.

What people need to understand about that Jubilee video is that we have a moment to meet. You gotta think of it like a nation under invasion. You don't want to be a fighter, but these people will not give you a choice. If we don't fight these bastards we will lose everything.

What happened

Gwen ☕ @gwenblue.bsky.social · Jul 22

I'm not sure how religious I am these days, but the only reason I don't identify as an atheist at the moment, is cause the way I've watched my Christian family throw away all their principles for a man who has none, wrapped in religious colors - it isn't that fucking far off from the Antichrist.

I don't dislike liberalism. I dislike spineless liberals.

At that point I'm going full commie and writing off as liberalism as a good idea on paper but incapable of being done in practice. My heart won't be able to take it.

If we really find a way to fumble it again after everything this man is done I'm officially calling it. It wouldn't be one or the other. It wouldn't be just "oh the electorate is dumb" or "oh the Dems are useless." It's both, the electorate is dumb and the Dems are useless.

I really want to believe the Epstein thing is "it," but I watched these people vote to cut off their own goddamn Medicaid. At a certain point it is tantamount to dementia and impossible to predict the next step. I'm only gonna celebrate if we get a blue wave, but I'm not planning around it.

A 16 year old trans girl attempted suicide on a bridge. Fortunately, concerned friends manage to save her by contacting emergency services who stopped her from jumping.

Users on X spent the following days making memes mocking her and hoping she killed herself.

Alt text: A tweet by user @sweetlotusfish shows a photo of a wide river with a modern cable-stayed bridge spanning across it under a partly cloudy sky. The photo is taken from another bridge, with the metal railing visible in the foreground. The tweet text says "bridges really do make for pretty views." A follow-up reply from the same user simply says "im really sorry."

"Well not everybody in a red state is bla bla bla" yeah I would know dude. But I literally don't know what else to do. I literally have no clue how it will get through to these people.

Some people are so dumb or far up their own ass I can't even attribute malice to it.

Trump isn't just cruel. He's also an idiot. A combination that serves as the best "tech" to garner a wide fanbase in the internet era. Attract cruel people and idiots alike and you are impossible to algorithmically shut down. The more Dems overcomplicate it the worse we will perform.

He throws around a bunch of fancy terminology and elaborate argumentation about tariffs but can't interface with actual economic data that disagrees with his preconceived notion of what he WANTS the data to look like.
