Because hoping that these women get replaced by fascists is *totally* a good thing. I shouldn’t have expected better from you. You are a NYT columnist, after all, and that means rooting for fascism now.

Democrats should be sending surrogates to deep red districts to expose the Musk-Trump fraud. If Republicans are refusing to meet with them, we should.

The Dems are listening. What they’re hearing is that White America would rather choose fascism than to get over their racism. They’ll submit to poverty so long as they can mistreat black people. Because that’s the message White America has been screaming since 2009.

The Democrats did not make you a fascist. You chose to be a fascist all on your own. And yes, you’re a fascist. Thanks for admitting that.

The terminally online Dem haters are bad actors. And it’s time we stopped pretending that they aren’t fascists. Contrarianism is a fascism.

It is coordinated. I’ve blocked five people in your replies because they keep demonstrating that they hate the Democrats more than they hate fascism. And it’s getting exhausting.

You fundamentally did not engage with my comment. If you did, you’d understand why you can’t have both right now. I think you want to hate the Dems more than you hate fascism. And since that’s the case, we’re done here.

They do lots of direct communication. Not a day goes by without me getting a bunch of texts and emails from Democrats. No, it is not a lack of direct communication. It’s that you want to hate the Democrats more than you hate fascism.

Word of mouth is no replacement for institutional engagement. And institutional engagement doesn’t happen overnight.

The media hates the Democrats. The media is owned by billionaires, and all billionaires are fascists.

You don’t really care about growth or how it works. That’s why you’re out here demanding institutions engage with a non-mainstream and relatively novel platform instead of recognizing the drawbacks of moving away from the old platforms. You want to hate Dems more than you hate fascism.

The account here was just created this morning. Bluesky is not real life. It doesn’t even have a reasonably broad reach like Twitter of old. In fact, Bluesky is still very much not mainstream social media.

But then, I always felt that "elections don't matter" sentiment, while I understood where it came from, was totally misplaced. To the rest of the world, we look totally goofy. And evil.

Meanwhile, you hate the Democratic Party more than you hate fascism. Bernie’s biggest problem is Bernie Sanders. He’s an ineffective leader, and this post shows it. It doesn’t matter if he’s right if nobody will listen to him.

Tl;dr: the Dems are doing things. You won’t hear about it in the billionaire owned media, because all billionaires are fascists.

Feminism lost the plot when it began to demand that white women stop being racist and listen to nonwhites. MeToo was about recentering white women as victims rather than acknowledging their perpetration of sexism and racism for their own benefit. And that’s why it went nowhere and did nothing.

We can’t vote them out anymore. The election system is compromised thanks to their gutting of the Voting Rights Acts and the dominance of Republicans who cannot believe their party can lose among vote counters. They are tyrants, and there’s only one way to remove a tyrant.

No peace for them. And honestly, no peace for their families as well. They want our kids to be terrified to go to school. Maybe if it were their kids’ schools getting shot up, they’d fix the schools.

It’s a lovely morning, so I grabbed a bike and rode to church. Before you get too impressed, the ride is less than a mile. I’ve walked it several times.

I’m at the bar, getting dinner. I see they have an NA Old Fashioned on the menu, and I’ll pay for a sip. Zoomies, you drink this shit? What is wrong with you? Who hurt you? Don’t copy us drinkers. Just do your gummies, shrooms, and vapes.

Fuck everything about large language models and diffusion engines. The sooner they collapse under their own costs, the better. I never thought that I’d rail against tech, but here we are: a tech that needs railing against.

No, it won’t work because it doesn’t come with the promise of suffering for outgroups. And that’s actually what the majority of Americans want: not ease for themselves, but misery for others.

Fuck this mentality you’re promoting. It’s just another example of people blaming Democrats for the shit Republicans are doing.

Bad analogy. It’s more like, “he comes, I steal his ladder, and when he says he can’t do the job without the ladder I stole, I tell him that it’s his fault his ladder got stolen, and that good painters don’t get their ladders stolen.”

Meanwhile, on Reddit: worshipping billionaires for hoarding resources others need is not violent, but advocating the removal of billionaires is. Steve Huffman needs to be second against the wall, after Elon.

You’re screaming at people who closed pools, parks, and schools rather than share them with nonwhites. You’re talking to people who see free school lunch as a bad thing. They don’t care about their communities.

It’d be nice if we could charge the parents with child neglect, but our AG believes that children are property of their parents.

We never had this platform. Not really. It really was illusory. At the end of the day, billionaire owned media like Comcast will ALWAYS be fascist propaganda. In times when they need more legitimacy, they’ll hire real journalists. But in times like these, the mask comes off.

Something to understand about the nazi salute nonsense is that back during Reconstruction there was a cottage industry of Klan denial, where Democratic papers would pretend the KKK didn't exist or point to their stupid rituals as evidence they were a Republican delusion or otherwise harmless

And when you tell transphobes about this, they reveal that they just don’t care. They just want to be cruel and feel it justified.

Dems are also doing a poor job addressing the fact that the average American absolutely hates the Democrats and blames them for everything. But yeah, we took our eyes off the electoral ball in 2010, and we have not returned to it.

That was an ad hominem attack, rather than a discussion of the merits of my point, that speech and debate programs are breeding grounds for post-truth nihilism and fascism. You can kindly fuck off with your lack of a point.

No, the ability to bullshit a crowd is not a skill we should teach. The ability to devalue discussion is not one we should teach. These are not valuable skills. They are the tools of fascism. And that’s all speech and debate programs teach: how to argue in bad faith successfully.

Remember that NBC is the media outlet most responsible for this. They ran The Apprentice for years. They wanted this. It is good for them. Distressed people in chaotic times watch more news.

If there’s any part of the high school experience that needs elimination, it is speech and debate. It’s just a domain for contrarians who absolutely will not grow up. It teaches that the open exchange of ideas is a game to be won.

If you think someone is acting against their own interests, you misunderstand how they perceive their interests. White supremacy and women’s innocence within white supremacy are more interesting to white women than agency and accountability.

They’re just as dumb on video-based social media. The reality is that these people are trolls. Because the fascist is a troll, so he can have fun with the words others use. His entire aim is to ridicule discussion as a means of problem solving.

The most gullible people tend to be those who have to lie to themselves about themselves in order to function. If you can tell them a lie that indulges their delusions of moral adequacy, they will follow you off a cliff. That’s why they have lined up behind an anti-Christ.

The biggest failure of the RIAA’s explicit lyrics sticker is not that Zappa’s Jazz from Hell has it, but that Norah Jones’s Don’t Know Why *doesn’t*. Like the title track off that album is quite sexually explicit, and absolutely nobody at the time seemed to care.
