Klein and Taylor's other point is that none of this is inevitable. we have the power to change our own societies. for me, part of that is rejecting corporate speak in everyday life. i believe in societies based around care rather than profit and i think we should take that language seriously

not a minor detail. we are in a corporate-perpetrated fascist moment in part because neoliberals have insisted on elevating the corporation as a cultural form across all sectors. this has been bipartisan and it is a major reason why today's 'end times fascism' is different than prior versions

I still remember in 2015 when Trump was gonna hold a press conference clear up all the questions about Melania's immigration issues in two weeks. And then he didn't. And the press never asked them about it again.

Additionally, it's an attempt to usurp the power to judge the qualifications of members of the House, which the Constitution vests solely in the House itself. And there's no reason to assume she will be the last member of Congress he goes after like this. It's a direct attack on the legislature.

The only thing this headline lacks is the phrase, “in a chainsaw-involved incident.”

Sexual assault is so common that I have to assume any man who complains about it or blames victims is guilty of it. Anyone who uses one false accusation to question us. Anyone who asks why she didn't report or requires a criminal conviction. I just assume you're guilty.

NH is the extreme example of this. They pay state legislators $100 a year plus travel expenses for part time work. So what we get is retired old people who fight any changes or attempts to modernize the state or business owners or wealthy people who push deregulation and low taxes for themselves
