It's important that we keep noting that literally no one is saying this.

This is a white supremacist rally. Anyone who attends something like this or still supports the leader of this movement should be unwelcome in your home and shunned from civil society. Period. We’re way past the point where this crap should be tolerated from anyone. Cast them out.
Trump: "Ilhan Omar, whatever the hell her name is. With her little turban. I love her. She comes in, does nothing but bitch ... we ought to get her the hell out ... she's here illegally."
The crowd in Pennsylvania then starts chanting "send her back!"

"Every disturbing news report about a wrongful deportation or military-style raid of an apartment building should come as a reminder that the US government is using its prosecutorial discretion—it is *choosing*—to normalize casual cruelty and overt racism."

In the first Trump administration, cruelty was the point. Now, it is the norm.

a key part of the Trump 2.0 agenda has been a series of lopsided, precedent-ignoring Supreme Court rulings that basically make it largely impossible for regulators to do their jobs, but somehow journalists at key institutions don't think that's IMPORTANT FUCKING CONTEXT

The core conceit is that the rebels have won, but there was never a coherent or shared vision of what would replace the ancien regime; it rapidly breaks into warlordism and competing visions of the future.
Turning and twisting thoughts over and around my mind, trying to bring the Sea of Grass - my fantasy setting of a post-revolution, post-imperial land trying to answer the "Are we free? What comes next?" questions. I swear, nearly every decision I make I second guess a dozen times.

what you should do: repost art; write alt-text as much as you can; encourage others to do the same
what you shouldn't do: engage in harassment campaigns against people who don't write alt-text or repost art, either when they forget or ever. folks who use alt text never asked for this.

MORPHEUS: They're coming for you, Neo. I can guide you, but you must do exactly as I say. Take the elevator to the lobby and go to the CVS across the street. Purchase 5 Steam gift cards at $200 each. Scratch off the protective coating on the back and tell me the fifteen digit redemption codes. Hurry
