It is incredible how far-right conservatives laud free markets but then, in effect, argue against the supposed correction behavior within free markets—consumer choice punishing bad corporate behavior—when it negative impacts corporate profit.
PeterThe New York Times wouldn't let me write about the Age of Diarrhea so I had to do it myself.
The super rich across nationalities are allied with each other and fund far-right political operations. Whereas the generation that defeated in Europe and Japan are fading away along with the memory of that war.
Samwhat’s going on with the world man. why is the far right resurgent everywhere? it’s easy to blame whatever policy boogeyman (neoliberalism, housing shortage, immigration, etc etc) but I think it has to be something deeper. maybe lived memory is dying out of how evil fascism is
Republican governance is nothing but a constant smash-and-grab. Sadly, no matter how aggressive future federal and state administrations may wish to be, there will never be enough time or resources to investigate and prosecute all the crimes of this era. We'll just have to make a few examples.

Our leaders must see their job as placing themselves between us, the people, and this administration. Far too often, our leaders will sacrifice me or you to try to protect themselves. In this moment, at this time, we do not need cowards. We need protectors.
Andi the butch abolitionist (she/he/they)“you have to let them hurt you, otherwise they’ll hurt me” vs. “if they try to hurt you, they will have to hurt me too, cus i’m putting my body in between you & them” guess which one is solidarity guess which one is obeying in advance
It fits with his other longstanding concept: eugenics. He's in documentaries going back 20-30 years talking about "good genes" and "brainpower" as pillars of success.
James DownieI think a lot of people – including, it seems, RFK himself – forget that "vaccines cause autism" is one of the few views Trump has long held, regardless of political expedience. And it would be deeply funny if RFK loses his job because he can't find the proof he insisted was in plain sight.
really something to see tech YouTuber types calmly discussing the latest Tesla or SpaceX business news without once mentioning Elon’s 50 Day of the Rope posts per day or his murdering 700,000+ people
Sunder Katwala (sundersays)X owner Elon Musk indicates he would prioritise political violence (assassination of pro-migration politicians is the common sense meaning) over violence against "invaders" (refugees, asylum seekers, maybe ethnic minorities generally) while endorsing call for violence (killing) against both groups
Great googly-moogly. Wars/terrorism even? Republicans +1 on corruption? Like, better at carrying it out? I need to see the crosstabs on this one but if this is really where things are at, it just underscores @volts.wtf's point that the media environment is terminally toxic for Democrats.

By the way, if you are in need of a Brentwood-area lawyer, don't hire David Diamond. He's a piece of shit.
Matt OrtegaStephen Miller said just the other day that all asylum claims are "fake." A couple deported from the U.S. to Guatemala were gagged, bound, and shot dead. Their 14-month old found crying next to their mother's body. People like Miller don't care though because this is the point: ethnic cleansing.
