Hey good point, it *is* immediately disqualifying if someone culturally associates with the racist losers flag.

Glad we had this talk.

The Confederate flag is a pretty good comparison to the Totenkopf, because a lot of people don’t fully understand the horror behind it. But, it’s widely accepted in parts of the U.S. as a symbol of cultural heritage.

3. If no, would I honestly just be saving time if I have to bulk transcribe documents myself?

Legitimate question for #rlanguage or #python people, and I asked similar on the Other Place:

1. Are there ways to implement OCR on docs written in cursive without having to train a complicated ML model?

2. If the answer is yes, could you point me to instructions?

The people he hurt will never forget, but the people he's trying to impress will always pick the genuine fascist over the plastic imitator.

And Republicans will make up some transphobic shit to smear on him ANYWAY.

Someone coined the hashtag #StrangeDeathofToryEngland on Twitter today and I just want to say that if anyone’s writing something in Dangerfieldian style, I’m all the way in.

I have been reading entirely too much about the Klan of late. Don’t AMA.

My new favorite Klan stories, beyond them getting their asses beat by the Lumbee:

(1) The 1923 Perth Amboy riot and getting their shit kicked in there.

(2) An interviewer going full Worldstar on David Duke’s past in a PBS interview with him in the 70s.

Oh, no, I am saying it. If Ezra's whole schtick is going to be "compromise on key issues for our base because Republicans find it icky" but his pet ones, I'm absolutely for rejecting his vote.

Toby Buckle @polphilpod.bsky.social · Sep 24

no one is saying we'd reject ezra's vote

we're saying those who make excuses for the enemy shouldn't lead the fight against them

This kind of thinking is so primitive. People’s problems with Klein isn’t remotely about where he falls on a right-left arrow or on the political compass or whatever. Bill Kristol is legitimately still to the right of people like Klein who get bashed for being sellouts, but Kristol has principles

Don’t get me wrong, it continues to be very scary that the Trump administration keeps desperately trying to create Reichstag fires and Horst Wessel Power Hours, it’s just also very noticeable that they somehow keep failing to stick the landing.

Faine Greenwood @faineg.bsky.social · Sep 24

which means you just petulantly keep starting Reichstag fires while looking back at the audience for approval with moist, increasingly desperate eyes

Faine Greenwood @faineg.bsky.social · Sep 24

Imagine if you started a Reichstag fire, but nobody came

Waiting for the first true patriot judge who simply says "if the federal government wants to play this game, I will presume it cannot have a case ever" and defaults the government on every case before them.
