I went to hs with a very quiet girl who’s related to Chuck Norris, and the only way anyone knew that was that one day in class, a guy who couldn’t stop talking, randomly went, “hey are you related to Chuck Norris?” “Uhh, yeah that’s my uncle”. Holy shit, everyone went nuts.

I think we’d better start facing the fact influencers are the most corruptible people on the planet.

If anyone thinks AI can be aimed to magically remove the political and economic power of female democrats while empowering working class males, they have the brain of a sea slug and should go live on the ocean floor with them.

Have yet to hear an argument why, if voter ID and passport are to be required to vote, those should not be provided free of charge. Or why, if voting is required in person, on a fucking weekday, every voter should not get time off work and transportation to their polling place provided.

You think "the online left" is unhinged, dog please talk to an independent voter IRL. They want universal healthcare and abolish taxes. They want to dissolve the coast guard. They want to rename the army the coast guard. They want their alien implants removed, and they also want more alien implants

Things that give me hope: ICE does not have the manpower to defeat Minneapolis, so there’s no way they’ll be able to intimidate enough polling places to make a real difference. There is no magic button to rig elections. Every special election since 2024 has Trump shook, and they *still* lose.

I think it's best for everyone to understand that the unified class project of billionaires right now is to do to white collar workers what globalization and neoliberalism did to blue collar workers.

20-25 years ago during the skatepark boom, I was concerned what kind of effect it would have on skateboarding. Like, what skating will mean if 90% of it happens in a fenced-in designated area. A generation later, we’re finding out.

You just can show up to a protest armed with hand guns. Or arms for that matter. You just can’t. Is it legal? Sure. But you just can’t do that.

You get the feeling the online right’s messages don’t even make sense anymore? Maybe it’s because their ideology is an empty husk, their leaders are insane, and they’ve lost the ability to articulate anything.

Just a passing thought, but I wonder to what extent the focus on Minneapolis is because in a very real way, the right wants a do-over of 2020 where instead of a broadly sympathetic public resolving to do more about racism for six months, they opened fire nationwide and ended organized dissent.

You can’t “train” cops out of the kind of massive personality flaws law enforcement agencies attract and amplify. Call it designed incompetence, but these systems are built on violence, intimidation, and skirting the self-imposed “rules” whenever possible.

one of my recent preoccupations is the visceral hostility the MAGA right has for the histories and traditions of the United States. these are people who spit on the Declaration and salute third-rate European despots!

After starting the year searching the highest levels of govt for fraud and not finding any, only to close it out by raiding daycares to the cheers of millions, is truly insane. A new low.

A really simple cognitive mapping of how tech has already infiltrated and grafted itself on our political, financial, and military branches. They’re setting the table to create a new feudal-capitalist system where they set the rules and we remain alienated and powerless. www.authoritarian-stack.info
