It is that the power exists at all, to speak on behalf of a god that does not exist. To impose a mythology on a Human Being without consent, teaching them that this mythology is reality.
That's what I am angry about.
The existence of this power is in itself an abuse.

This was my first pinned post here and one of the first posts I was kind of happy about. Right when I started actually using this place.

When the six Democrats said military officers ”can refuse illegal orders”, they were correct—indeed they went no further than the Department of Defense’s own guidance, writes @davidallengreen.bsky.social.
When is an order an ‘unlawful command’?
And why has Trump reacted so furiously to six members of Congress correctly stating the law?

He's clocked the fact that he may be charged with murder, or similar, in 3 years time, unless Trump issues him a pardon. He'd better not fall out with Trump in the meantime. So he really is Trump's bitch now, even if he wasn't before.

🧵This 58-year-old nurse from Maryland is seen being violently dragged along the ground by officials in Ghana.
Trump deported her there.
This abhorrent & disgusting abuse of a woman who saved American lives and cared for injured and ill Americans for 30 years.
All the details below are worse.

Actually, leftover scumbags from the NIXON administration.
Cheney, Rumsfeld, Roger Ailes, Roger Stone, Kissinger, all should have died in prison at a bare minimum. The George W Bush administration would never have even happened if we didn't let this nest of fascist ratfuckers fester.

The main reason we're in this situation is a bunch of war criminal shitbags from the Reagan administration paved the way for fascism.
And the best thing you can do is ask the grunts not to follow illegal orders. What about your part of the bargain?

I know a lot of footage and commentary is swirling about today but it’s important to convey that the people who gathered outside that ICE garage in lower Manhattan were *so* ten toes down focused.
This person who gets maced and just calmly flips the bird & keeps going is *quintessential.*

They're not hiding it, folks—straight up neo-Nazi advertising, from the font to the language to the 11 stars for the Confederacy. Then you have the DHS openly using white nationalist language of "remigrate", which means ethnic cleansing.
This is who MAGA is now.
