Political and economic systems collapse. It's inevitable. It may be imminent. We can deny it, resist it, or embrace it. To make the best of it, we need to start adapting now.
Pinned
Our political and economic institutions are collapsing.
It does not need to be a disaster.
I'm here to gather and share ideas on how to navigate this change.

Footage taken moments before a struggle shows that the man was filming, holding a phone in his right hand, backing up. His left hand is up, visible, palm facing out, as he backs away from the area. An agent uses his right hand, on the torso of the victim, pushing him back, while the man complies.

With the growing lawlessness and violence of the USA, many accounts here say that we need to buy guns to resist tyranny. Here are my questions for anyone thinking of taking this path:

Where is the Satanic Panic when you need it?
I was a sensitive kid. I loved cats. I had OCD, undiagnosed.
When I was 9, a fraternity brother tortured a cat to death in my hometown. The details even now are beyond imagination. archive.is/xdmUL
I was traumatized for years from reading the news story.
The torturer? Now the head of the NRA.

ICE has never been about immigration enforcement.
It's a weapon used to brutalize Americans and stoke enough fear so that Trump can rig the elections and usher in dictatorship.

There is video circulating on social media of a group of ICE agents beating a man near 26th and Nicollet in south Minneapolis, then one of the ICE agents shoots the man while he's on the ground numerous times. A witness can be heard yelling that the victim is dead.

📌The thing about Jack Smith's testimony today is that it is easily corroborated because we all watched the attack on TV, including the guy behind it, who did nothing about it for three hours.

There was a similar flowering of Black American public intellectuals culminating in the 2016-2024 period, and I'd argue the anti-Woke backlash was in many ways a reaction to the threat this posed to the outclassed white punditocracy, for whom meritocracy and DEI hire was a way to disqualify them.
Just finished this right after having read @hofrench.bsky.social's Second Emancipation, and it convinced me that the African & African diaspora anti-colonial thinkers of the 1940-1975 period constituted one of the great intellectual movements in the history of humankind.
Second Enlightenment level.

We think of the postwar world order as having been built by the US. But as Getachew makes clear, that world order was completed by the intellectual giants of the African, pan-African and African diaspora liberation movements.
It is no coincidence Trump & Miller are targeting its fundamental tenet.

Y'all. Stop calling people in red states stupid. Stop saying we deserve what we're getting or that we get what we voted for.

Northern GOP literally handed the region over to Redeemer Apartheid in return for a free hand imposing a Gilded Age corporate agenda nationally
While it's convienent to point to white Southern vigilantes to explain the defeat of Reconstruction, as Proctor notes, it was white Northerners & federal officials who abandoned the rule of law & helped initiate a *nationwide* regime of racial repression.
In the same way that the media and elites in 2016 and 2024 acquiesced to Trump's election and re-election, it was white moderates, especially in the Republican Party, who doomed the South to Jim Crow after decades of insurgent violence and conservative legislative disfranchisement

Trump did not destroy the USA alone. Not even his basket of deplorables (bigots) were enough. The destruction of our country relied on generations of grifters being elevated as leaders. We had lost all sense before Trump showed up. He lied, robbed, and killed, and Americans responded "what's new?"
