It was appalling to see the way protesters taunted those mourning the October 7th victims. That is not activism.

They’re live-streaming the execution of the person they think they can get away with doing that to first. It’s a test. If they can do that, they’ll expand the margins of permission.

One thing that Ossoff does - thank god - is COMPLETELY abandon the weird liberal wisdom that you should never say your opponent’s name. He says “Mike Collins” about 30 times in this clip, not “my opponent” or some such, and the directness make his attacks exponentially more brutal.

This goes against the intuitions of a lot of older people who were socialized into the party alignment of the 1970s-1980s-1990s. But you could make a case that the Trump second term is the most directlyand outwardly anti-Christian presidency in American history.

One Dem in South godforsaken Carolina cynically adopting transphobic rhetoric is not the same as the Dem Party adopting it. The Labour Party has collectively decided to persecute trans ppl--as a unit. The Dem Party is overwhelmingly on the other side of this and has a few outliers who aren't.

The psychopaths in charge of America believe violence and savagery are how you prove you’re strong, and every problem is solved through the application of strength, and if problems weren’t solved you weren’t strong enough, and thus problems are met with perpetual escalation of violence and savagery

I recognize this spiel well enough, and it’s a strawman caricature that tries to conflate pre-Trump conservativism with classical liberalism more than it ever actually was, and pretends people on the left were never interested in limits on state power, when on many issues it was often vice versa.

If you want to talk generational perspectives, it’s worth considering that “we were the party of small government and personal freedom” rings pretty hollow to someone who came of age while Bush made banning same-sex marriage a centerpiece of his reelection campaign, to name just one obvious example.

It is remarkable how many Dems in competitive races are not doing the squishy bipartisanship tapioca routine and are instead just letting rip with these guys are a bunch of evil goddamned nazis who want to take all your rights and are also corrupt as fuck. It’s reading the room, I suppose.

This is dangerous, and the president inciting violence like this will cause real harm. But he will lose. If Minnesotans have proven anything, it’s that we’ll crawl over broken glass and through tear gas to protect our neighbors. These are the deranged screeds of a desperate and flailing loser.

Hegseth got the job not because of his clown antics on Fox News but because during the first term he made it his personal crusade to get Trump to pardon war criminals who had murdered civilians and desecrated corpses. That’s who he is and it’s what Trump hired him to be.

This is a moral atrocity and it needs to be loudly condemned as such. There is a reason that democracies *don't* do publicly televised executions (and why many don't execute people at all): it inculcates and rewards bloodthirst, which corrupts the spirit and corrodes the foundation of the polity.
