Good article on Meta taking millions from Tucker to promote debunked conspiracies. Knowledge Fight has some great episodes on Tucker interviewing Nick Fuentes, Alex Jones, and Milo Yiannopoulos, all of whom are seeking audiences further to the extreme/Nazi (especially anti-Semitic) Right than ever.

Crystal Wilsey might make big bucks off her racist threats against a Somali couple. She's got a Givesendgo fundraiser and that site is, I guess, notorious as a "free speech" hub for white nationalists, neoNazis, and all manner of racists to fundraise openly on. Her current fundraiser has 126k.

Iganza Bissassa lays into the Quincy Institute video on Ukraine, where they blame anyone who supports Ukraine's resistance for the mass death of Ukrainians. Daniel Bessner's close twitter bud "Gal Debored" is Courtney Rawlings of the Quincy Institute here. Surprisingly shallow arguments from her.

I listen to a lot of podcasts and while I generally find the hosts to be good people I constantly get snagged on the anti-boomer and anti-genx quips that are baked into the medium for a lot of popular ones. They are very often snyde remarks about not getting specific basic tech, or niche memes. 1/

It's also funny that my friends and I were playing Games Workshop titles 40, not 20 years ago.

Worth noting when "mere liberal" groups march for working class /immigrant issues: "Around 200 union and community members from groups such as Indivisible Twin Cities, Minnesota 50501, Women’s March, and the Minnesota AFL-CIO, marched ..." Sometimes dismissing as "shitlib" isn't the whole story?

Gillian Anderson admits in 1998 her British accent is put on: "i hung on to it even a trace of it into my college years and then finally just said you know this is, i'm being false here this isn't the truth anymore and so i i let go of it." I know: she lived in England, bidialectal, blah blah FAKE

It's emblematic of how stifled and ineffectual the current mainstream left is that both one of its biggest philosophy guys and it main organizations are still relying on the ANSWER Coalition, those tankie/campists who popped up during the 1991 Gulf War, to put on their rallies and actions.

I always read this scene from Dalton Trumbo's Spartacus as cross ethnic solidarity against the ruling class. Drunk patricians pit Spartacus against Draba. Draba wins. The patricians give the thumbs down to kill him. Draba instead throws his trident at the patricians and scales the wall to kill them

In Lebanon. Can hear the Israeli drone constantly now. I’ve only been back for a day but folks here deal with it 24/7, for months. It’s psychological torture. You can even see it, just flying around. The Israelis want to let everyone know that they can kill whoever they want whenever they want.

This is from the highest podium in the world a call for genocide of Somali people in the US.
Like are we still at the denial stage of “they don’t really mean that” or “they can’t do that”? Direct from the Fascist’s Leader, direct from the government and state.
Trump, continued: "What the Somalian people have done to Minnesota is not even believable. It’s not even believable. And a lot of it starts with the governor. A lot of it starts with Barack HUSSEIN Obama, because that’s when people started coming in... They want to kiss our country good night."

Working class historian and organizer Tom Wetzel with a quick and damning definition of "anarcho-capitalism." Wetzel's recent book "Overcoming Capitalism" is a great overview of approaches to and examples of resisting exploitation and building working class movements.

A 4 part thread shows how YIMBYs who believe they are progressives sometimes support weird reactionary politics. I think a lot of it is not knowing about the history or politics of a place, but also a lack of intersectional class solidarity. Single issue liberals have pretty big blind spots.
Popular NYC YIMBY Sam Deutsch cheers the tech oligarch funded overthrow of Dean Preston and other progressive SF Supervisors. He calls him "unhinged" but Preston has roots in SF anti-eviction, tenant rights, and social housing movements. Gary Tan & Elon Musk funded GrowSFs anti-progressive campaign.

I'm sorry, but the poster who mentioned water did not even attempt to downplay other harms of AI. This happened entirely in Rev Howard Arson's high profile influencer head. And Arson's language is so unclear, as are the replies, I have to think it's a circle jerk.
