DSA is far from perfect but its easily the best/most viable option to build a third party that can start to challenge the moribund Dems so I really need to see every chapter nationwide get hyper ambitious real fuckin quick

when we mourn le guin, we mourn one of our greatest writers & thinkers. but we also mourn one of our all-time greatest haters

All you do is take all the sex out, and use little short words, and little dumb ideas, and don't be too scary, and be sure there's a happy ending. Right? Nothing to it. Write down. Right on.

If you do all that, you might even write Jonathan Livingston Seagull and make twenty billion dollars and have every adult in America reading your book.

But you won't have every kid in America reading your book. They will look at it, and they will see straight through it, with their clear, cold, beady little eyes, and they will put it down, and they will go away. Kids will devour vast amounts of garbage (and it is good for them) but they are not like adults: they have not yet learned to eat plastic.

Dems for a while now are these weird placeholder puppets that, when in charge, keep whatever version of society Republicans have fucked us into as the new status quo, and just keep us in that holding pattern until the Republicans get back in power and fuck everything up more, and the cycle continues

Weird how the lonely alienated men never turn to community or labor organizing. Che. Black Panthers. Etc as good role models or showing them how to combat capitalist alienation. Showing them how to have a real positive pro social impact they can see with their eyes. Weird how no one mentions this

Seriously, the moment a great prompt is public, someone immediately copies it, shares it, and pretends it's their own genius work.

By end of day tomorrow, there will be anonymously sourced stories about Bari Weiss getting death threats. By Wednesday afternoon the media focus will have shifted focus away from CBS's decision to spike a story as a political favor to fascists and they'll be talking about "political violence".

I don’t think any of this would be going better if the people carrying out the mass deportation policy were better educated and more fit. I do think things would be much better if we didn’t keep treating this stuff as a somewhat legitimate exercise of power.

This is part of my concern around the focus on who ICE recruits, because while the recruits are not good people, they are also easy targets. The people setting the budget and hopping onto cable news to defend the policies are harder targets, but they’re much more responsible.

TBH, I think the reason chuds talk about AI having human rights is so that data centres can take an immense amount of resources from actual humans with impunity.

It's fascinating and revealing how many centrists think refusing to compromise on human rights to gain the support of bigots represents a "political purity test," yet also think that a bigot saying "I won't join you unless you accommodate my bigotry" does NOT represent a "political purity test."

I cannot stress enough that capitalism’s primary function, above literally all else, is to structurally empower sociopaths. Every other expressed goal is secondary.

The fact that Matthew Dowd lost his job for pointing out Charlie Kirk’s hate speech, while Brian Kilmeade openly suggests we should euthanize the homeless and there is zero outrage, shows exactly what is terribly wrong with today’s political mainstream media.

It wasn’t about porn. It’s not about video games. It’s not the edge case distractions. They want to make queerness a thing taboo to have in public life again. And they are starting where it is most visible and where people currently show support. Queer folk, stay dangerous. Keep each other safe.

It's hard to overstate how destructive the reflexive "this is a distraction!" stuff that politicians and commentators and people are always peddling. Everything is happening all at once. That's how authoritarianism works. If you can't navigate and synthesize this, you're not meeting the moment.

The thing about Kamala is that politicians lie all the time, but she couldn't even pretend to send a message of support for ending genocide. Activists were literally begging her campaign to give them any message they can bring back to voters, and they said "Fuck off"
