Paul Verhoeven undefeated in creating a movie that flies right over the heads of the people it’s making fun of
Rightwing influencers are so bad at interpreting source material that they can only do it correctly by accident, when they're trying to make a joke

Lmfao what an awesome proposal. One reason you need a 90% income tax rate at this level is these guys are too stupid to have the amount of power they do. Like giving a glock to a 4 year old

Let’s be clear: the UK is weighing a ban on X for deepfake sexual abuse.

Musk’s opposition has nothing to do with defending speech.

It’s about defending sexual abuse and attempting to avoid culpability for his role in not only allowing, but *monetizing* it.

If calling a state secret police agent a murderer for committing murder will lead to more murder by the state secret police, it sure seems like the problem is with the secret police
Homan: "We gotta stop the hateful rhetoric. Saying this officer is a murderer is dangerous. It's just ridiculous. It's gonna infuriate people more which means there's gonna be more incidents like this."

“Banning X for being the CSAM and Sexual Harassment generator is a slippery slope for censorship online from governments”

I’m sorry, did I hallucinate the part where America just decided TikTok wasn’t allowed to exist anymore?

the whole "London is like Mad Max" thing is a great example of utterly pervasive right-wing propaganda social media has allowed to just seep into peoples' brains
I wonder what Londoners know that the rest of the country don’t?

If you're not willing to arrest the killer, don't arrest the demonstrators.
Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey says 29 people were arrested in downtown last night during a noise demonstration at a hotel reportedly housing ICE agents: "For those that are taking the bait and causing property damage or otherwise, there are consequences. We're holding the line here all the way."

The Epstein Files Transparency Act is a law, passed by Congress on November 19 with an overwhelming vote. Complying with it was not optional. The Department of Justice did not comply.

I want to make sure this is very clear.

If the Republican Party was an institution suited to hold power in a religiously and culturally pluralistic democracy, it would not allow (let alone encourage) its rising youth to gleefully Hitler post.

FWIW, they have now deleted that post with no apology or explanation.

remarkable how yet again, Donald Trump has found a way to betray *everyone* who is foolish enough to trust him.
We are not getting the outcome that Rubio promised or that he promised himself. We are getting the worst possible outcome for everyone except perhaps 4 members of the PSUV ruling clique and a handful of Trump cronies.
