Fascists are "efficient" because they're fascists. They treat their opponents as the enemy, up to and including killing them. People who express any admiration for them or their methods need to slap themselves in the face repeatedly.

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.

I’m currently at the hospital with my 90yo grandmother and can hear the drone as clearly as I can hear her. We don’t even talk about it. It’s like talking about clouds. There’s a sense that it’s pointless to talk about it. Israel feels beyond human agency, because nothing ever stops them.

Yes. This.
The truth is that there are many good people in good institutions regretfully making the choice to sacrifice trans people because they fear for their own survival and their institution's survival...

...and it is incumbent on us to show them that their choice is not without consequence.

Um, Tom Stoppard very much did "talk down" to members of his audience who were leftists and it made him a shitty writer. See "The Real Thing". Also his women characters are a mess. See also "The Real Thing." We really have to stop lionizing these guys, even when, maybe especially when, they die.

I just donated to a soup kitchen, unaware of their religious affiliations. Now I’m nervous to find out that they might be horrible. Makes me realize I should probably vet a few local charities because the landscape is different out west.

Thousands of landlords who rent to some of Boston’s poorest households through the federal government’s Section 8 voucher program will see rent payments temporarily slashed this month due to funding delays in the aftermath of the government shutdown.
Following government shutdown, Boston says it’s out of money to pay Section 8 landlords - The Boston Globe
The Boston Housing Authority sent a letter to some 6,000 Section 8 landlords that it has yet to receive a significant chunk of funding.

Um.

Together with the whole disobeying court orders to not to traffic people and the extrajudicial boat incerations, the Reich stuff is getting extremely literal.
President Trump unleashed a xenophobic tirade against Somali immigrants on Tuesday during a publicly broadcast cabinet meeting, calling them “garbage” he does not want in the U.S. as he sought to refocus public attention on his anti-immigration rhetoric.

Yeah - the white veneer over country music makes it almost inseparable from Christian nationalism at this point. Hard nut to crack, no matter the bona fides in your back pocket 🫣

Disappointed to see this. 160 union workers are fighting for a fair contract at Individualized Shirts, a US factory that makes high-end men's button-ups. The managers there have rejected the union's request for fair wages and health insurance. The union is asking for support 🧵

Gaslighting of the first order.
Hillary Clinton blames TikTok and “totally made up” videos for young people’s views on Israel and Palestine.

She says social media influenced “not just the usual suspects” but also “young Jewish Americans who don’t know the history and don’t understand.”

We won a court order stopping the federal government from playing politics with our health care system and defunding Planned Parenthood.

We'll continue our lawsuit to defend New Yorkers' health care and reproductive freedom from unconstitutional attacks.

As worthy as many organizations are, if you want your money to have a real bang for its buck on this Giving Tuesday, there are poor people struggling just to stay housed and fed all around you. Help them first.

"Allen has been the subject of investigations in respect of these allegations but has never been charged."

Allen, like Roman Polanski, has ended up on the Mediterranean, because nowhere is friendlier to alleged child predators than Cannes.

Hegseth is very transparently blaming a Navy admiral for his own decision. Let this be a lesson for every other military officer: The Trump administration will issue unlawful orders, then blame you for following them.
