Aaron posted a list of messages from users he blocked and hmmmmm it seems like "enjoy the camps" is only okay when it's against trannies
a bunch of messages with the middle highlighted one being "hope you enjoy being tortured to death in concentration camps!"

This is the type of activity that needs to be lionized and eventually pardoned. In Nazi Germany they killed people for stuff like this, if we have the chance to mitigate these consequences we should.

Wild that he gets this coverage after he packed the Utah Supreme Court in order to try to prevent it from enforcing a referendum-passed gerrymandering ban to steal a congressional seat for the GOP (and disenfranchise his state's largest city)

Trump and Hegseth have killed 230+ people on boats in the Caribbean and Pacific with no proof they did anything wrong, no congressional approval, no nothing. Just 2 unhinged fascists ordering our military to commit murder. Vote against all Republicans for the sake of all that is decent.

remember: it saved no net money, social services US citizens are getting cut, and left the US in a weaker place geopolitically. none of the debates about fiscal responsibility, obligation to US citizens first, or 'hard choices' actually apply. they're all bullshit. killed people for nothing at all.

Every time a discourse kicks off over whether AI music, literature or art will be "as good as" the real thing, I'm always amazed more people don't cite that **there already are** creative pursuits where human-free spectacles have been available for decades, and nobody has ever wanted to watch them.
