The problem is that the child porn website is owned by the richest man in the world, who no one wants to pick a fight with, and even less so now that he's aligned with the president of the U.S., himself a maniacal sex criminal. Nothing gets fixed without breaking the political power of big money
I am once again reminding you all that the UK government introduced an Online Safety Act that is effectively a porn ban on most adult porn websites, but is dithering over banning a website that is actually creating child porn.

Don't get all hysterical, you hyperbolic baby: the meteoroid isn't a meteorite yet. We're still in that liminal space between a meteor in the atmosphere and a Tunguska blast over New York City. Nothing to worry about.

under fascism everything is simple, unless the state seems to do something wrong. Then it is very complicated and the people simply don't understand

It is an article of faith among Dem consultants that they can never sway public opinion, they can only follow it.

"weird" was so effective that it actually raised the prospect of victory, terrifying the Dem consultant class that only knows how to grift off of losing
This isn't just a casual observation. Fascism scholars have long made this point. It's why calling them "weird" was a more effective strategy than talking about the prices of eggs. Fascism is an aesthetic political movement - you need to make people feel embarassed and horrified by it.
one of the most effective weapons we have against fascism is mockery, especially when its really funny

Some of this is grifting, but a bunch of it is pure fascist resentment: if I like or approve of something, this implies a liberal/judeo-bolshevik conspiracy to suppress it. The existence of such a conspiracy requires no evidence, it simply must be.
I thought this was a joke but it’s an actual post from the White House: “we are ending the war on protein”

How about ending the war on the health of this country?

If you ever talk to a right wing person about an issue that is relatively new, watch their eye movement. You can see them grow increasingly uncomfortable when they realize nobody has told them how to think about what you are telling them.

This attack is tragic, terrifying, and laden with historical context.

The hubris and lack of even the slightest hint of contrition. Every person involved in this needs to face a tribunal.

in Trump's first term I used the phrase "double wrong" to describe a lot of his actions. that is: doing the wrong thing, but also doing it poorly. at the time it usually just applied to him but now it seems the entire right-wing ecosystem is constant double-wrongness.

This kinda imperial hubris is just fascinating. It's obvs not true (the Taliban are back in power, the communists still run Vietnam, etc) but more than that I find it baffling to want it to be true. The status "citizen of a country that does war crimes with impunity" is imo a bizarre thing to crave.

Dring a time when experts and trans folks both are issuing warnings about trans genocide, and queer folks in general are ever more under attack, this is acutely dangerous.

If a kid isn't telling their parents something so basic, it's because they've made a risk assessment about it.

For the record, that's all the far right *is*. They want the vibe of unpainted Greco-Roman marble statues, they don't want the centuries of philosophy or its implications. They simply want to steal the valour of the erudite.
For all their talk of Western civilization they seem oblivious or even contemptuous of core Western texts.

so much of the rot at the core of america is based on parents having the power. parents need to have power stolen from them - the power to homeschool without oversight, the power to force kids onto the street, the power to think a dead kid is better than an autistic one
