This is addressed to everyone, but especially Americans under the age of 30: Read dystopian novels. Read 1984, and Brave New World, and Fahrenheit 451, and White Noise, and—fuck—even Hunger Games. So many of you just aren’t getting what’s been happening just because you don’t read.

A majority of Americans say their financial situation is worse than it was during two recessions. Any more questions on why the GOP wants to keep people from voting?

"The masters of war pretend not to know that it takes only a moment to destroy, yet a lifetime is often not enough to rebuild. They turn a blind eye to the fact that billions of dollars are spent on killing and devastation, yet the resources needed for healing, education and restoration are nowhere to be found."

The biggest story in the world right now is that the president of the United States is a demented old man who takes pleasure in torturing and killing people and is committing crimes with impunity. And yet most legacy media outlets are too cowardly to tell it like it is.

He promised retribution; prosecutors and investigators are now targets. He seized ballots; he’s calling to seize elections. This isn’t bluster; it’s a plan. Stop laughing

When a major media outlet openly capitulates to the political agenda of the executive branch, they are no longer part of the fourth estate. They are state-run media. Add Bari Weiss and CBS to the list of those who have betrayed our Republic.

The Supreme Court, Presidency, Senate and two party system are all quite anti-democratic institutions as presently constructed. Our institutions are not only incapable of preventing tyranny—they’re currently enabling it. When democracy returns, we need to reform our political system.

For over 5 years, Marjorie Taylor Greene was one of the people in Congress most disliked by Democrats. No death threats. It was only when she turned on Donald Trump that she got death threats. Just like Senators only received threats of violence after they wavered on Trump's cabinet nominations.
