Don't disagree And i have long held the belief that certain demographics actually support climate change acceleration because environmental racism hurt some people more than others. The discrimination is a selling point to them

I agree strongly with this -- in that difficult moment, the possibility of collective effort was conceivable. Not everybody felt it, but many did. I think the political class did not like this one bit.

"Brazilian democracy has many flaws, and far-right sectors remain very much active. Yet Bolsonaro’s fate — and with it, the fate of democracy — was shaped by...a practical reversal of the U.S. model..." Cristina Buarque de Hollanda for @sunsentinel.bsky.social www.sun-sentinel.com/2026/07/09/l...

After supporters rioted and trashed government buildings in the U.S. and Brazil, Donald Trump returned to power, but Jair Bolsonaro went to jail. The two countries’ institutions explain why.

Increasingly my reaction to these videos of unhinged people violently assaulting driverless cars and other tech abominations is "hang on, let's hear him out"

I understand the outrage at seeing these types still getting roles but... Jonathan Majors sole role is for a failing propaganda outlet and Armie Hammer starred in an Uwe Boll turd... At some point, you gotta cut your loses or do p r n. This is worse than dishonorable discharge, this is degradation.

There's absolutely nothing, and I do mean NOTHING you can say to the people claiming Nithya Raman somehow stole the election from Temu Tr*mp, because those people don't like democracy and want to destroy it. They believe a has-been loser piglet like Spencer Pratt should, but not Raman or Bass.

That's the optimistic scenario, with AI becoming competent at flying. The realistic scenario looks like 1950s aviation.

In Chilean Spanish, "Mensa" is the word we'd use for a fool, an utter, clumsy derp. Inflected for the female gender, but still applicable.

The Nazivnamed themselves national SOCIALIST as a way of co-opting Buzz words from comunist/socialist movements in order to fight those movements and ideals. "Saying something people want to hear to bring them Into Fascism" is Literaly the first thing nazis do.

Aren't US tankies, in the end, another expression of that very American, (very Calvinist) binary way of seeing the World. A binarism that plagues MAGAgop and Democrats the same? Of seeing societies, any society, within a bipolar spectrum of ideology?

Alberto Cox @albertocox.bsky.social · 04/05/2026
Wondering something: Tankies are a universal phenomenon. I'm Chilean, I'm well aware of how deep the well of insane Left can go. But... Are US tankies also a product of that very American lack of education about their own and Global History? Another form of the very basic knowledge Americans have?

... Both, when trying to find a way to explain their suffering, willfully chose to listen to the very people that put them in that position, the generals, politicians and elites they knew damn well were at fault. They chose to listen to their lies and the scapegoats they chose for them.

Was it witnessing the opiod crisis? But still, that was not the same as hundreds of thousands of war veterans panhandling in the streets. The US has barely been grazed compared to post-WWI Germany! Or was it the Smart Black Man becoming President? Regardless, Germans and MAGAts share something...

Alberto Cox @albertocox.bsky.social · 07/04/2026
... What was so disastrous that made millions of people in the US embrace that structural cruelty? A couple lost wars abroad? with a cumulative death toll lower than a good week in WWIs trenches? A Great Recession?, but that was still far from 1929 in Germany.

Alberto Cox @albertocox.bsky.social · 07/04/2026
And I would add... Nothing justifies the decisions Germans made in the run-up to the elections of 1933 and the Second World War, but at the very least, they were the result of apocalyptic conditions, generations of young men annihilated and whole new forms of economic devastation. The Americans...?

A crucial part of Project 2029 has to be performative trials and draconian sentencing for Trump administration officials up and down the organizational ladder. Treat all of them like Timothy McVeigh so that the gravity of their criminality and treason become enduring images in American history.
