So, it turns out we're treating fascism just like we've been treating climate change:

– ignore warnings of experts
– buy into bullshit "alternative explanations"
- read "don't worry" media op-eds
– deny it will really be that bad
– start seeing major evidence
– hope somebody does something

Mueller, She Wrote @muellershewrote.com · Jun 22

We’ve bombed Iran. And dismantled our joint terrorism task force. And sent a third of the FBI to help ICE. And gutted the National Security Council. And a drunk guy is in charge at the pentagon. And our intelligence allies probably won’t share intel with us. Because people couldn’t vote for a woman.

“The best way to honor our parents' memory is to do something, whether big or small, to make our community just a little better for someone else."

Beautiful statement from Sophie and Colin Hortman.

This is an important observation. An authoritarian regime may be pushed from power, but the scars and stains it leaves behind last decades. Spain and Chile still live under the shadow of Franco and Pinochet and there are countless other examples.

🚨🚨"It is hard to predict how this will end, other than badly. It will take years to rebuild America’s constitutional checks and balances, institutions, and international standing, but possibly decades to restore political trust." Excellent by @alexhh.bsky.social on the #LA military deployment:

Everything that’s happened over the past six months has been a response to an imaginary crisis. There is no immigrant invasion. No trade crisis. No scientific or governance crisis. Just people completely high off their own supply trying to fundamentally reorder society. None of this had to happen.

Here are some texts I got from an immigration lawyer friend of mine. Shared with permission. Some of the bleakest shit I’ve ever heard.

Text reading: I had to come down to Los Angeles for Work and ended up trying to help with the raid last night. As a Bernie usefully. Waited by the entrance for detainees
We were repeatedly denied access of any kind, and eventually LAPD force removed attorneys ice. Also tear gassed a baby under age two. Today they told us to come back at eight to see the clients, but they ever refused entry to us as well as politicians, including Jimmy, Gomez, and right now. They’re releasing some kind of gas, so the Attorneys can’t breathe

Text reading: Post it so everyone knows. When we were trying to chant their rights ice honked so no one could hear.

A teacher breaks down after ICE causes multiple schools to lockdown during graduation ceremonies and parents to flee for their lives.

Only the soulless aren’t hurting from what is happening in our country. This is affecting all of us.
