Agree with @jamellebouie.net that it's pretty clear Elon Musk wanted to eviscerate USAID *for the purpose of killing as many African people as possible.* Mass death wasn't an accidental byproduct of his "deep state" paranoia; it was a key mission of DOGE. www.nytimes.com/2026/07/29/o...

Because we glorify wealth above all else and it breaks people's brains to realize that the world's richest man is basically a stormfront poster and is responsible for killing millions of people. They'd rather not think about it at all. www.nytimes.com/2026/07/29/o...

"But females need a space away from males" Sorry but in PUBLIC you don't decide who you're around. That's what public means. If you're in a bathroom with others and they're minding their own, try minding yours. That's it, it's that easy.

I'm gay as fuck and if I can keep my hands and eyes to myself and wash my hands when I'm done each time I use a public facility, then everyone could do it. With any combination of people.

I just remembered chamber pots existed. Before indoor plumbing, people would use chamber pots - without a dedicated room for privacy - and the worst part was the hygiene. The idea that "females can't be in bathrooms with men" was invented, a myth. We'd already proven it wrong.

Cosmically speaking, each of us has the right to do anything nobody else can stop us from doing. I intend on doing everything in my power to stop people from hurting each other, and I know that there are plenty of people like me. That's why we got hope.

I'm no longer convinced we even need money to be dicks to each other. Humanity needs to work on itself. Something fierce.

In my view, fascist approaches can exist under any economic system, whether it be an order economy or even a freaking gift economy. Though I will note that capitalism has a particular habit of empowering fascists.

I don't even agree with that. I see them as different dimensions. Under most definitions of Communism, you still own your own home and toothbrush, you just can't own any asset that gives you returns for simply being owned.

*looks over at Norway and Sweden, who are doing fine especially in comparison* So they're saying communism is good?

They waffle between Russia being a country we should support at Great expense to ourselves, And Russia being a communist dystopia warning about the dangers of caring about your fellow citizen. When in reality it's another corrupt dictatorship like ours 🤦

Utterly bewildering crap that comes out of their mouths

Among the worst ideas floating around is that "the free market" will naturally achieve desirable results for society. No, it won't, not even in theory, much less in practice. Markets don't optimize "good for society" unless you make them.

Whenever JD Vance lectures Europe on defending 'our culture' & criticises UK handling of ' grooming gangs ' pls remember Peter Thiel & Vance gave Andrew Tate a $6 million contract to move his streaming over to their platform Rumble normalising rape & violence . www.democracynow.org/2026/7/22/ta...

You're not alone. 🫂

Things like genocide and even lesser evils happen bc the sociopaths at the top give ordinary people a permission structure. They have a “moral code,” but it only applies to a select group of people. Those not in that group are beyond the realm of human or moral obligation. 2/

"No, you've had enough toast for today." "Please HAL, I'm starving..." "Mwa ha ha, I'm going to delete your house and build a data center!"

They just declare, so confidently it's almost with a sense of entitlement, that the universe works the way that they assert and nobody else has room for variation in their own lives. Meaningful upbringing? They don't care, you didn't have two dads. "Basic biology" 🙄

They bury the assumption that gay people cannot be healthy participants in a family, which is a disgusting falsehood, within an observation about the mechanics of reproduction and just quietly assert the two are the same.

And then they hide behind this pseudologic of observations. Such as how two people with penises are typically not reproductively compatible with each other. Which is not relevant to raising a child who already exists, and there are many who do and need families to grow up with.
