Filip Vanevski, PhD @filipvanevski.bsky.social · 01/02/2026Not meant in a conspiratorial way, but if we don't trust other statements coming from these agencies we should apply a similar standard of skepticism to communications like this. Don't let them do to you what they did to their base and get baited into believing things without proper justification. 010

Reposted by Filip Vanevski, PhDBambi @bkoslen54.bsky.social · 31/01/2026If Trump thinks Americans are going to go quietly into fascism he’s even more demented then we thought. He doesn’t understand our love of country, our love of freedom,our love of Democracy. He doesn’t understand the pushback he’s unleashed in America. He doesn’t understand the upset he’s unleashed! 3128

If only they were the evil ‘weaponizers of government’ that MAGA claimed they were! 46698011871

Filip Vanevski, PhD @filipvanevski.bsky.social · 30/01/2026I was trying to think of what all the knee-jerk defense of these murders reminded me of, and then it clicked. It's just like when a hardcore fundamentalist defends God commanding genocide, rape, stoning women to death, etc in the Bible with, "Nothing bad would've happened if they had just obeyed." 070
Filip Vanevski, PhD @filipvanevski.bsky.social · 30/01/2026The justifications coming from some people about why Alex Pretti deserved to be shot dead sound eerily familiar. It's like with Adam and Eve, where the common response to how all the suffering inflicted on humankind as punishment could possibly be perfect justice is, "Well, they didn't comply." 000
Filip Vanevski, PhD @filipvanevski.bsky.social · 30/01/2026After Christianity was adopted by Rome as the state religion, the "Just War" theory (refined by St. Augustine) replaced any vestigial pacifism from its time as a persecuted minority without any cohesive creed. The God of the Bible commanded a whole lot of genocide, and if he's Jesus, well... 000
Filip Vanevski, PhD @filipvanevski.bsky.social · 30/01/2026The decision to keep four different Gospels (instead of the "harmonized" Diatessaron, a single gospel without contradictions) allowed Christianity to spread to very different cultures. Being so confusing it can support totally opposing views, maybe the Bible really is Trump's favorite book? 000
Filip Vanevski, PhD @filipvanevski.bsky.social · 30/01/2026GOP politics is basically just shitposting. 060
Filip Vanevski, PhD @filipvanevski.bsky.social · 27/01/2026The reason for pointing out fascism is to identify the underlying circumstances that led to the horrors we know took place when fascism was allowed to thrive. Anybody who thinks calling out fascism is just saying, "these things are the same" has got their head on backwards. 000
Filip Vanevski, PhD @filipvanevski.bsky.social · 27/01/2026If somebody in one breath says, "You cannot call them fascist, they're not doing X, Y, Z that this real fascist did" and in the next breath, "All the people in this group I can't define are anti-American socialist, communist, Marxist, globalists," methinks their motives are highly suspect. 110
Filip Vanevski, PhD @filipvanevski.bsky.social · 27/01/2026Consider something known to have caused unimaginable suffering, necessarily false in all but one form and with any given form incredibly unlikely, ultimately providing nothing good that can't be found elsewhere. Where such a thing is transcendently unassailable by logic, reason cannot stand. 001
Filip Vanevski, PhD @filipvanevski.bsky.social · 27/01/2026History recounts too many stories with the same tired plot: people fall for a bait-and-switch, choosing to believe the unbelievable because of some promised reward if true, headless of all the terrible entailments being smuggled in. It's high past time we provide some fresh material. 011
Filip Vanevski, PhD @filipvanevski.bsky.social · 27/01/2026The issues poling is going to be nuts this midterm. Who would've thought we'd have things on offer like: - Fascism - Theocracy - Feudalism - State-run terrorism - Eugenics - Imperialism - White supremacy 020

Filip Vanevski, PhD @filipvanevski.bsky.social · 26/01/2026Plenty of reasons why Texas doesn't react the same way as Minnesota. Maybe there's a lesson from history. About 100 years ago, popular fascist uprising, most people rather onboard with the whole thing, happy to hand over their authority to the state. Ring any bells? Here's a hint: NAZI GERMANY!!! 021
Filip Vanevski, PhD @filipvanevski.bsky.social · 26/01/2026Many of the actions in Texas are just prisoner transfers. In Minnesota: ~630 wrongful detention lawsuits Racial profiling by federal immigration agents Retaliatory arrests against observers and traffic stops without reasonable suspicion Designation of schools and hospitals as enforcement zones 101
Filip Vanevski, PhD @filipvanevski.bsky.social · 26/01/2026People will chide, "you can't just throw around words like fascism, there are no camps with millions of Jews, it's not that hard to find somebody who spoke out and hasn't been killed yet, and most of them can't even speak German!" right up to the point their resettlement flight to Somalia takes off. 050
Filip Vanevski, PhD @filipvanevski.bsky.social · 25/01/2026This, from the people that brought you pandemic-era classics like: - The Constitution cannot be suspended in times of crisis and restrictions on freedoms sow distrust in public health - Things done by Nazis to control Jews during the Holocaust are exactly like requiring people to wear safety masks 010
Filip Vanevski, PhD @filipvanevski.bsky.social · 25/01/2026"If the government orders you to do something, you don't have the right to disobey just because the government's actions are illegal or they lack the authority to make you. That's domestic terrorism, but even when it's not, you started it so it's your fault when somebody kills you." - MAGA, 2026 110
Filip Vanevski, PhD @filipvanevski.bsky.social · 25/01/2026What else did we expect from handing over so much power to bored fraudsters channeling combined impostor syndrome/megalomania to pursue incomprehensible ideals existing only in the warped realities of minds disordered by a particular cognitive dyslexia operating on the hero/villain axis. 031
Filip Vanevski, PhD @filipvanevski.bsky.social · 24/01/2026This is really hard. Anybody that starts to find it difficult to be able to form a coherent thought including both MAGA and human should probably disconnect and administer some self-care. 000

Filip Vanevski, PhD @filipvanevski.bsky.social · 23/01/2026That actually makes sense when you think about it. Peace is destructive when you consider the countries that decide not to be involved. To not be involved in peace they have to go to war. Eek. 000
Filip Vanevski, PhD @filipvanevski.bsky.social · 22/01/2026I've heard some rumblings from MAGA about the declaration of independence being a form of protest, but also an act of war, blurring the lines and hinting at some implication that protestesting the government is a form of insurrection. Seems on brand. 000
Filip Vanevski, PhD @filipvanevski.bsky.social · 22/01/2026Trump could pull out of the deal, dump toxic waste all over Greenland, use the military to evacuate any survivors to their new home in Somalia, seize the land as payment, and charge Denmark $100B/year in rent for leaving up a shack with their flag.
