Troy Jackson: Eight years ago today, Maine women begged Susan Collins not to confirm Brett Kavanaugh. She did it anyway. He helped overturn Roe v. Wade. And today, she says she has no regrets. Would you trust her to pick the next Supreme Court justice?

It’s the “them loudly and over confidently dunking on MAGA for not knowing how to understand art” of it all for me

I know I’m a little late on this discourse but the Blue MAGA reaction to learning that Rage Against The Machine also includes raging against the Dem political machine is 110% funnier than MAGA finding out RATM hates cops.

So, just to review. In roughly seven months the US has had to abandon all bases in the Middle East, flee from a British base, the petrodollar system that is the foundation for hegemony has collapsed, and we’re facing historical energy and food crises. Great work. www.cnn.com/2026/10/04/p...

“He was a lifelong Democrat who had voted for Trump for the first time in 2024, reasoning that things weren’t getting better, so why not try something different.” This may sound harsh, but this truck driver SHOULD be haunted for the rest of his life. He deliberately chose his fate.

I saw this response from the local ADL account and was flabbergasted. Like I get the antisemites having antisemitic responses (not saying *good* or *right*) but this just killed me, like cmon guys he’s addressing the issue. Sure it might not be 100% of your ideal policy but zero thankfulness is wild

Like you have shitass “antizionist” left wing assholes taking their masks all the way off while there are simultaneously a ton of extreme Zionists who hate him so much they cannot keep themselves from hating on him *for announcing a bunch of measures to combat antisemitism*. Truly mental.

He is really such a fascinating figure because it turns out nothing gets psychopaths of every political persuasion mad quite like “nice guy does normal things and uses their office to do positive stuff”.

The other big part of it is when you are only reading abstracts you miss in the part in the actual paper where there is a ton of dialogue about how the nonviolence dividend gets completely washed out in the case of separatist/anticolonial/independence movements

Straight to jail on day 1. Like cmon people.

I mean the obvious more contemporary example with parallel to Israel is apartheid South Africa. Regardless, the point is that the idea that armed insurgency is ineffective in social change writ large is a wildly different argument than within the context of separatist movements.

121

Those 30+ countries becoming independent are kinda proof positive of the whole point that if you want independence from an oppressive power, you do see that right?

120

In other words, your point here is pretty definitively wrong.

000

Secession campaigns / wars of independence are a uniquely challenging set of circumstances, and Chenoweth and Stepan explicitly state these movements are the exception to the rule on the whole efficacy of violent vs nonviolent resistance issue.

100

The literature on the politics of resistance is far more complicated than to just say “armed insurgency doesn’t work” or even that it is particularly ineffective. Most armed insurgencies don’t win, yet most independent states got there in part due to those insurgencies.

100

Idk point being none of this to me dismisses the importance of armed insurgency in the birth of the Israeli state, nor does it get at the larger meta point which is that armed insurgency is absolutely, unequivocally a path to independence or autonomy.
