I've noticed a lot of users are interested in joining some iteration of "resistance" to oppose fascists. Allow me to outline some first steps: 1. Cite your sources. And when someone asks you to, or when someone sources your claim for you, say thanks. Fascists survive on mis- and dis-information.

I've heard a lot about lessons we can learn from Brazil, but take a look at Serbia.

🚨BREAKING: We have moved for a temporary restraining order and preliminary injunction enjoining Trump from continuing to unconstitutionally impose themselves upon election administration procedures that the Constitution and federal law assign to the States.

It turns out punishing coup plotters actually is an effective deterrent!

i am inviting anyone from a legacy media organization to explain to me why the house judiciary dems report on trump’s epstein’s ties and multiple allegations of rape isn’t worthy of extensively reporting on. i’m serious. i want to understand.

Hooray the notification panel is ugly as fuck now

The lessons from Brazil and Serbia? Don't concede one inch of ground to the far right. Don't appease. Don't triangulate. Don't grovel. Don't say they have "legitimate concerns". Mobilise your base, and fight them with all the democratic means at your disposal.

Lord I see what Brazil and Serbia have and I want it for myself

who hit enter on the originating prompt charge them

Note the key phrase "so many people." Yglesias thinks it's fine—good in fact—that American billionaires are very interested in foreign elections and routinely influence them to promote corruption and fascism. His concern is that filthy plebs like you and me might want better things for everyone.

Wow. Minority staff of the House Judiciary Committee has FAR fewer resources than the NYT, WSJ, CNN. Were they aware of these charges & decided not to report on them? If so, why? If this report holds up, there should be prime-time hearings. The victims are named & should be invited to testify.

The far right is international and they all organize together and raise money for each other. I'd argue it's critical to pay attention to elections in other countries.

Elizabeth Holmes is not the face of motherhood for incarcerated women. Jazmin Valentine wailed in agony for 6 hours in labor while staff and nurses LAUGHED at her. She had to resort to sliding her amniotic sac under her cell door to prove she was in labor.

I think that if Lula had capitulated to the "we need to go more to the right" like Fernando "we should not discuss ENEL's re-statization" Haddad and all of the rightwing media pundits, we would not win on a "we aren't fascists" platform.

Over 2,000 alumni from Vivek’s all-boys catholic high school in Cincinnati have signed and circulated a petition demanding that he pull the ad and issue a public apology for “ignoring the moral responsibilities” of his Jesuit education. I think he’s pretty cooked.

Notice that he's actually only upset that *commoners* care about foreign elections. He's not stupid enough to think that governments and world leaders don't care about them. He literally just wants you to remain beneath them.

"Both top-shelf reporting and top officials in the Trump administration, including Trump himself, have said that Musk made this decision on his own. That would be treason. The traditional way to figure out the truth of such a matter is with a trial." prospect.org/2026/10/26/d...

Dont forget my loves, these ghouls must spend their every moment living in fear and activation in order to maintain sufficient momentum, the richest men in the world must spend all their time and money to maintain this stranglehold, and still power is constantly slipping from their grasp

Bolsonaro, Vucic and Orban out, Flamingo and Cockroach Revolutions, French uprising and Iberian housing movements, Nepal and Bangladesh popular insurrection, Iranian and Serbian movements, these too are heralds of the current moment. We are once again in a time of movement and revolution

As neighborhood watch captain, I will fulfill my campaign promise: To call for a REFERENDUM so that the people of 1300 Block of N Charles Street can vote whether they still want to be part of the United States. C-TOWN DESERVES TO BE FREE!

WE WON!!!! FUCK YOU, FASCISTS!!!!!

PSA for cis folks: if a democrat goes on camera and answers a question about trans rights without making an explicit statement supporting trans rights, they're anti-trans

The mobilization itself was already not something I ever expected to see, but to actually win? Hell, to double the winning margin from the 2022 runoff? Genuinely surreal. Maybe child raping billionaires *don't* have to run the world with a shit-eating grin. Maybe that can stop.

Genuinely I don't know that it comes across to people who haven't been here to watch how almost unbelievable this was, just people taking something that looked impossible and dragging it kicking and screaming all the way to inevitability.

Meanwhile, pro-democracy, pro-Europe protesters in Tbilisi, Georgia, are tonight nearing their 700th consecutive day of protest against the pro-Russian government. They haven't missed a single day in the last 23 months.

USIANS PAY ATTENTION!! WE BEAT META, WE BEAT YOUR BIG TECHS!! IT IS POSSIBLE!!

None of us should forget this. Meta should be subjected to corporate death penalty and permanently broken up into small pieces.

In his acceptance speech, Lula says he will work to regulate digital platforms in Brazil. “Digital crimes must be dealt with like real-life crimes.” This comes after Meta directly interfered with the Brazilian elections, favouring Flávio Bolsonaro.

Hi. I, a trans woman, am the Executive Producer of this show. I wrote the question. He called trans girls men. He has now said it in three different places in the past week.

It's really important to pay attention to the fact that Lula beat the fascist candidate not by compromising and trying to meet fascist voters in the middle, but by sticking to his guns, promising prosecutions for election interference, and mobilising his own voters to turn out in greater numbers.

Brazil’s results tonight are a big endorsement for the idea that every country should have a second “are you you sure about that” election a couple weeks after the first one for the important stuff

So far I've run into two Brazilian accounts posting "victory nudes".

A maior vitória das nossas vidas. É Lula

Lula won. Who wants a beer?

🤞 They're gonna regret coming out of hiding to try to steal this election. Now he can just prosecute them with little pushback, frankly.

Que Deus proteja Lula! Viva a democracia! Viva o povo brasileiro e sua força!!!!!!!

BORA BORA BORA LULA

We have the same problem here in the US with the Dems. They get indignant and violent when you demand they run on more than "I'm not the bad guy".

First serious institute calls it for Lula

FLÁVIO BOLSONARO É A CABEÇA DA MINHA PICAAAAA

CHUPA BOLSONARO

LULA PULLS AHEAD
