Are teacher's unions getting involved in resisting these ICE raids yet? General strikes aren't going to do much. Rolling teachers strikes are much more effective. It's like spraying wrenches in the machine.

Pretend there’s a war on (there isn’t). Pretend drug traffickers are terrorists (they’re not). Pretend overdoses are armed foreign attacks (they’re not). Pretend “the president says so” means Congress has no role (it doesn’t). Voila, legal. When factual reality is irrelevant, any law can apply.

The allegations of "public-private speech policing" are **made-up!** What would have been "healthy" is for Douthat and friends to have called it out as BS when a bunch of us had our lives turned upside down based on lies. Their inability to do so provided the pretext for this current 1A assault.

Charlie Kirk opposed free speech but the media won’t tell you that
The mainstream media venerated Charlie Kirk as a martyr of free speech following his assassination on September 10.

“Words…are not value neutral. They can be kinetic, and they can inspire others to act. That act might look like a hateful tweet, a threatening phone call, doxxing a target, harassing their family, or worse. That is not debate. That is the active silencing of it.” open.substack.com/pub/wicziped...

If you call every fact-based criticism "deranged," and say it's coming from "sick people," the problem is you. How long until more of the media and the public grasp that calling so many things "deranged" is a sign of derangement?

The reason the Trump admin was comfortable having Noem post an influencer vid like this is bc they know MAGA will be entranced by this the same way they gawk at OnlyFans influencers. It inflames a hedonism blending lust & cruelty. Turning people on, letting people indulge in their lust for cruelty

The big result of Russia-Ukraine “peace” talks is a return to something like the Black Sea truce they previously reached on their own that Russia subsequently broke and is now lying about and might not follow? Not exactly an achievement. Always the same reason: Russia is after conquest, not peace.

Confederates, Nazis, Russia, Apartheid, Gilded Age fat cats, and Measles. We're in a comic book story where previously defeated villains come back and team up against the hero, like the Sinister Six v. Spider-Man. They're weakened by infighting, but in real life there's no guarantee the hero wins.

Being a historian, people ask me if I think the US is living through Germany 1933. I answer no, analogies are always imperfect but to me it feels more like Russia 1999: a blatant theft of state assets and liberals in a fugue state, refusing to believe the arc of progress is bending against them.
