It’s really telling how back in 2016, JonTron was pro-gamergate and also promoted white genocide conspiracy theories alongside people like Sargon and Richard Spencer and somehow he hardly faced any real consequences for his actions.

"allyship"

context: in a thread reporting the trump régime's executive order to remove all federal sa/rape protections from *trans and intersex* prisoners, this "ally" decided her first contribution would be along the lines of "women are next"

when called on it she then wrote this vileness

Fuck you of you think trans rights should be sacrificed "for the good of democracy".

The anti democracy machine is the anti-trans machine. Get that through your skulls.

my favorite Hallmark movies are the ones where the premise is deranged from start to finish and you can tell the actors are doing their doggone best to ignore that and power their way through
i have watched about a dozen hallmark movies with the sound off and captions on (while listening to music) and i think there is really something wrong with me

I really need more people who are active on social media to understand this general principle on an intrinsic, bone-deep level - most people are far less informed than you. It comes up in many, many forms. And it’s too widespread to assign blame to those individuals for it.
More proof of what @prisonculture.bsky.social says that most people in this country have no idea what's going on:

Yesterday two different clients told me they wanted to take their cases to the Supreme Court because they knew there was still a liberal majority.

It’s not over until it’s over.

Even if & when there’s nothing left of hope but smoldering ashes, you can still try to sweep them up neatly and start building again.

The other day, I heard someone use the phrase "the fatalism celebration" and that really captured the "the world is fucked, so fuck the world" spirit of some doomers.

I've said this before, but there are two kinds of people in the world.

- People who have suffered or been traumatized by something, and think it's unfair unless everyone else also suffers
- People who have suffered or been traumatized by something and don't want anyone else to experience that.

"All is lost" narratives are popular because people generally do not want to take action. Taking action is tiring so if all is lost, you are off the hook. Nothing is more seductive than not having to do anything.

What kind of brain worms do you have to compare a tweet about “allowing” private industry to build small cars with Chairman Mao? What connection do they even think they’re making? It’s not just conservatives getting dumber by the day.

"Communities are trying to fight back. Rapid responder groups have followed ICE by foot, bike and car, sounding danger with whistles, shouting and honking horns. Parent and community groups are working ... to protect students and families as they travel to school."
Chicago’s Operation Midway Blitz has led to a surge in ICE raids. Families are hiding for days, missing work and losing income. Wage theft complaints are up as workers face fear and exploitation.
