*BOLSONARO: FEDERAL POLICE REQUESTED I GIVE THEM MY PASSPORT

as a trans activist from Kansas, some of the most vehement pro-trans activists in the state are genuinely Christian pastors. the Dems in the State Legislature have way more pro-trans takes than this. he's saying this after my trans activist friends have spent like a week @'ing him. he can do better

They're sending the VP to campaign in *Montana*??

When people like Anne Applebaum talk about the far-right they don't mean the Middle East because they exceptionalize the region so much that its developments exist outside time. The region is filled with far-right leaders that she happens to support.

These people don’t want to win; they don’t even want to persuade. They want a world where they are a pure and rarified elite, with none of the responsibilities of actual power, only the smug gratification of being right.

Yes well it does require things like “empathy” and possessing a basic understanding that all of our lives are interconnected

We literally just saw Lula pull a rabbit out of his hat in no small part because his supporters acted like soldiers in an information war rather than critics doing purity testing

Literally 3 hours ago I was reading posts saying Bolsanaro was a 110% lock because look at all the voter suppression he had going for him, and how this was a preview of 2028 here in America. Real heads remember the dark times of 180 minutes ago.

The Biden Smoke Break

I hope that Lula helps facilitate this Bolsonaro's family reunion

I can't believe rioters in France have stormed the US Embassy

it is my deepest and most fervent wish that the tech oligarchs suffer consequences for openly allying with fascism the world over maybe we can extradite zuck in 2029

I gotta be real chief I think Israel ain't gonna be a big win

total lula vindication

that was when i started to believe he had this

look, nothing is simple and i have no parsimonious explanation for anything here, but a student protest movement, focused on corruption & authoritarianism, just won a major european election. a big deal.

Lula rn

It’s bolsonover

the rainforest will be saved we will make no apologies for the terror

i always believed in you brazil

the lesson of the Civil War is that aesthetic warrior-cult societies get their shit rocked by schoolteachers and store clerks who'd much rather be doing anything else

Reagan and Thatcher rose to prominence once no could remember the Gilded Age. Glass-Steagal was repealed when no one could remember the Depression and look where we are now that no one can remember World War II...

feels like at least part of what is happening is that a lot of people want politics to solve the "my life feels empty" problem and the populist right is directly appealing to them

I think this country is real fucking lucky that Ivanka got one taste of politics and peaced out to steal more behind the scenes.

this is one area where Catholic clergy are I think firmly to the left of their parishioners, because if you're an American Catholic priest and you don't understand immigrants are keeping your parish alive, either your parish is dying or you're a racist on crack

the GOP establishment genuinely being a load-bearing moderating force and restraint on the party has led a lot of people into outright denial of the fact that the Dem establishment is, ideology aside, a bunch of juiceless idiot losers

girl the boers

God I love Angie Nixon. I hope she wins

It’s actually INSANE that the DSCC is not putting any money into this race and everyone of those dumbasses should get fired by President Ocasio-Cortez

Ok Andy! This proves that 1. Talarico is a coward for his shitty answer on this. To a much lesser extent so is Hinojosa 2. Amy Acton and Marcy Kaptur just hate trans people. 3. No Democrat anywhere needs to run a single anti trans ad and can just say “trans people deserve civil rights”
