state executions are immoral But if we have them, no matter how heinous the criminal, we should treat loss of life as a horrific event we mourn Some death may be necessary in a just society (eg, self defense), but the moment we celebrate death, we are the same as the murderers we execute

Funny how some meat eaters will go on about “you cant call that milk! Thats nut juice!” And then turn around and say “i harvested a pig this weekend” as if they picked it right out of the ground Pick a lane, bud

I think its pretty obvious he knows hes going to get destroyed in the midterms, i think words and then actions are going to intensify

My only hope is that this backfires, and people realize the horrific practice of state executions

Everyone is freaking out about testing results for students. Has anyone looked into how the scores decline around the same time they stopped teaching to a test?

Or that it’s still 17% lower than pre war and that it costs far more to ship because you have to pay extra for the risk and that its been an environmental catastrophe

chris “chairman mao” pappas

Matt @acadianrunner.bsky.social · 04/10/2026
Pappas is a lousy Dem (because he’s basically a Sununu republican) which makes the attack ads against him even more funny

Matt @acadianrunner.bsky.social · 04/10/2026
But who cares? I feel the difference between most dems and the ones like mamdani and el sayed is they wouldnt take the bate and show how much meat they eat Id picture mamdani eating at a vegan restaurant and say “nope, BUT lets hang with our vegan neighbors” and el sayed would call out fake manhood

My point is, this may play better than you think

Matt @acadianrunner.bsky.social · 04/10/2026
People will rightfully mock this, but i will say… be a vegan for a little while and youll see how insecure people are (left & right wing), and how much they use “i love meat” to prop themselves up Not saying all meat eaters, but a much much higher percentage than youd think

What the fuck is the point of this? This had to be an opinion piece? Global warming is promising to be a humanity ending crisis and this is what your AI pushing billionaire ownership wants you to point out?

I really don’t understand how public school advocates with means and teacher unions havent been more litigious over vouchers. They should have been over charter schools. But it really feels like this is going to be the deathbed for public education

Always easier to picture the villains in history as the “other” I even have a hard time when people call MAGA nazis, as if there werent horrific hate crimes and mass violence in our own history. Makes it easy to say “nazi germany wouldnt happen here”… ok, but jim crow or Japanese interment could

Establishment are going to flood campaign with people who they hope steers the message to right of center topics… lots of “safe pick” and “unifier” language will be incoming

It isnt odd. It’s problematic, its anti democratic, its narcisim… but it isnt “odd”. Its quite on brand for him Whats “odd” are NYT contributors refusing to use direct and bold language to point it out

Its really sad to hear the voice that comforted me during covid (midnight gospel) saying batshit crazy stuff

He was vocal against the rise of fascist military forces in Europe, while also a nationalist at home … so i guess its how you define fascism.

Matt @acadianrunner.bsky.social · 27/09/2026
Churchill can be more than one thing. He can be a staunch anti fascist who saw the evils of Nazism before it became popular in England… He can also be a racist, eugenicist who promoted imperialism and fought immigration. Both of those are true.

Your point? That point makes it worse England and US famously turned away Jewish refugees, and treated ones that did escape with suspicion.

Knowing about a genocide and doing nothing about it is a tradition in the Western world

Also, the wording of this is weird. The FBI didnt really close it. The agents involved were removed for political reasons. This implies the agency just moved on.

Its been my biggest complaint about obamacare. Dems claim it provides insurance to millions more (true), but so many are on essentially catastrophic care plans. The problem is the system, not the customers
