I’m not saying anything particularly smart or new here: A press that runs on sensationalism is just a rolled out red carpet waiting for any fascist weirdo who prints money for “both sides” by saying and doing crazy things all day.
there's no way to explain our politics without the media being overwhelmingly complicit
Now only did White House pool reporters not stick up for their colleague who Trump repeatedly called “stupid” but you can hear them thanking Trump a few minutes later after he ended the Q&A. Sad stuff.

I think we can safely say that the Leavitt's brother called ICE on his ex, the mother of his child, and I have to say: I have no desire to respect, find common ground or share the country with these monsters.

I seriously doubt our current Democratic leadership will have the spines to do this. Things are going to have to change. There are going to be lots of advisers and financiers telling them to move on - but if we do that, the United States is finished.
We're gonna need a truth and reconciliation commission and Nuremberg style trials to reckon with all of this evil, and any Dem candidate for office who shies away from a full reckoning in the name of "moving forward as a nation" can get well and truly fucked
I feel much safer today knowing that we deported a Babson College student back to a country where she hasn't lived since childhood.

Alan Moore, the author of Watchmen, on superheroes
!["Heroes,
" Moore says, "are dangerous." And the
superhero narrative in particular is a fascist "power fantasy," a "white-supremacist dream of a master race," one that now, with the explosive success of the MCU and its multimedia sprawl, has saturated the culture so completely as to have trickled into the ground water, and polluted even our political storytelling, such that - as he explained on the How To Academy podcast — "the fantastic [and] unbelievable threat" that we've come to expect in our shows, movies, games, comics, novels — it'll get absorbed, as an effectively simple storytelling device, by the nightly news, and the political commentariat, so that it manifests in daily life as "the underground Democrat paedo demons that were suggested by Anon, and the equally- unbelievable superhero savior that is working behind the scenes to rescue us all will be 'The
Donald,' who's even got a superhero name."](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:f4d76fjna5nxqsy2fu6cgmp3/bafkreifkgk66a3joonboyqqaxncsmbotyr5dqoqeho3darggclovnfp4ky@jpeg)

I've shared on here before, why more cops do not and cannot reduce the murder rate in US cities.
I've shared that criminal justice reformers have known what does work, and has worked in dozens of US cities. It's now driving record low homicide in Chicago and Baltimore♥️🕊️
