These people just wanted white supremacy without all that "personal economic impact" they're feeling. There are people who voted for this fascist scumbag THREE times -- as far as I'm concerned, they're terrible people and should spend the rest of their lives making up for the harm they've done.
A woman that i know who voted for Trump is now making panicked anti-Trump posts.

Refugees learned which half they were in from a number stamped on the back of their ration card.

The presidency once served as a reminder of our common humanity. Ronald Reagan described its purpose as building "a nation composed of good and decent people."

I keep saying this but no one is connecting the dots. The war is to satisfy legal preconditions for mass removal *domestically* of Latinos (i.e., suddenly a lot of people are going to be “Venezuelan” for purposes of removal). This is 100% Stephen Miller…oil claim is to make grandpa go along
There is no national security logic that would impel the US to want to do regime change in Venezuela. It's simply not that important. I'm not even sure wag the dog is the right metaphor for what's happening here. Seems like an insane misallocation of US national security assets and attention.
Trump: "Venezuela is completely surrounded by the largest Armada ever assembled ... It will only get bigger, and the shock to them will be like nothing they have ever seen before — Until such time as they return to the USA all of the Oil, Land, and other Assets that they previously stole from us."

This is 100% right IMO. The trump pedo regime is is now wanting war with Venezuela as a 2 for 1: continue their Nazi ethnic cleansing plan, and distract from the Epstein files

It's always the most obsessed anti trans people who get caught with CSAM.
1. In Alaska, the right wing govt handpicked doctors to the Medical Board to ban trans youth care.
A month after after, one anti-trans doctor was arrested for child porn.
The day after he was bailed out, his home burned down, with reports suggesting he was found deceased.

Important thread. I would also just note that it underscores how incredibly vital Bluesky is. It may be the smallest major platform, but it's the only one that hasn't been corrupted by fascists. It's crucial that it be protected.
There’s a specific mechanism in authoritarian movements that we’re seeing play out in real-time across American media and tech. It’s a simple rule: "If we cannot co-opt it, we must destroy it."
It is the logic of "scorched earth." It's the logic of the Nero Decree and it's happening right now. 🧵
