I don't want to cope anymore. I don't want to have to cope. I want to live in a world where I don't need to cope. I'm sick of coping. I would really like to just enjoy my fucking life for one goddamn minute.

moments ago, ice agents again came out of the broadview detention/“professing” facility to escort a silver suv out of the lot. one of the agents picked up and threw congressional candidate kat abughazaleh to the ground.

My TikTok account got banned with no warning. When I started over with a new account, the “fresh” feed was wall-to-wall right-wing propaganda. That’s not random—it’s how the algorithm probes new users. And what I saw was chilling. 🧵 #hypernormalization #tiktok #resist

If your feed feels surreal, contradictory, demoralizing—that’s not an accident, it’s the strategy. Hypernormalization makes people stop trusting their own outrage. That’s how regimes keep power: not just by force, but by making truth feel impossible.

What’s happening online is a mirror of what’s happening in the streets. They don’t just want to disappear people— they hey want to disappear reality itself. Stay awake. Stay loud. Stay human. ✊

Why TikTok? Because when you reset your account, the algorithm “tests” you. Right-wing propaganda farms have poured millions into dominating that probe space. Your first exposure is engineered outrage bait, designed to funnel you into despair or complicity.

The message is psychological: • Resistance is futile. • Even Black people support it. • Violence is normal, even desirable. This isn’t just random noise. It’s authoritarian DARVO at scale: Deny, Attack, Reverse Victim & Offender.

This is hypernormalization: Flood the public with absurd contradictions until reality itself feels unreal. • Black voices cheering anti-Black violence • Disappearances framed as “cleanliness” • Cruelty sold as “order” So people stop resisting.

Authoritarian propaganda is obsessed with cleanliness: “clean streets,” “clean cities,” “clean up crime.” It’s code. It doesn’t mean cleaner sidewalks. It means cleansing the public of whoever the regime has marked as disposable.

The content wasn’t just generic MAGA fluff. It was Black creators (real or AI-generated) saying they “like” what’s happening in DC because the streets are “cleaner.” Translation: they want us to believe Black people are celebrating the disappearance of Black people.

One video had a Black man casually calling the disappeared “N-words.” That’s not organic speech. That’s scripted dehumanization. This is a propaganda tactic: put brutal words in the mouths of those most harmed, so it looks less racist and more “common sense.”

⛪️ This is also why men are experiencing a religious revival. Patriarchal religions take a binary perspective on nearly all issues because acknowledging nuance and variability requires higher levels of cognitive ability.

🎢 The internet’s unfettered access to brain-smoothing content accelerated men’s decline while also simultaneously giving women an opportunity to share notes on a scale they’ve never had before.

💣 By marinating in dehumanizing, hyper-stimulating content, avoiding the mental “exercise” of empathy, patience, and self-reflection and letting patriarchal privilege atrophy the skills they never had to develop in the first place— men have physiologically altered their own brains to be anti-social.

👩‍🔬👩🏽‍🔬👩🏻‍🔬 If, in 50 years, someone does a post-mortem comparisons between men heavily immersed in porn/social media toxic masculinity content vs. those who weren’t, we could expect:

💪🏻 For millennia, male dominance structures meant that men did not need empathy, cooperation, or long-term provisioning skills to reproduce; they only needed control over women’s reproductive access.

🤖 In modern conditions, that “selection pressure” for empathy and cooperation in men is even weaker because the internet and online porn allow them to bypass real human relationships entirely.

📱 If men’s habits include high-frequency, high-intensity consumption of stimuli that reward dominance, novelty-seeking, + objectification—while underutilizing empathy, cooperation, + creative collaboration—it’s reasonable to predict that 🧠 regions associated with the latter functions could shrink.

Crockett: My former colleagues from the Texas House—decided to get the hell out of Texas… breaking quorum is where they’re at right now. And they didn’t just do it by themselves—they went to Illinois, where there is a governor that gives a damn. This fight is going to take all of us.

Millions of women are seeing how quickly, how easily this woman gained total control over the situation in the blink of an eye. I 100% guarantee that this is going to influence MANY women to arm themselves and use any means necessary to protect their peace.

Ladies: unless your man has the letters “CPT” after his name, stop letting him cosplay your personal trainer in the gym. Assume that he knows as much about safe & effective body movement as he knows about everything else. 👀

This might be one of the last times a man has a public meltdown without being met with immediate justice. ⚡️ Look at these useless men, standing around doing fuck all while the women handle it. Men have been using women as shock absorbers for generations. Enough is enough.

💥 Something went wrong in that split second. He didn’t crash. He didn’t even slow down. But the bag snagged or twisted — and it fractured a finger on his right hand. This happened while he was racing over 112 miles, climbing 12,640 feet of elevation, all in just a few hours.

At a feed zone during Stage 12, Coquard reached out for his musette — a small bag packed with snacks, gels, and bottles. Riders burn ~7,000 calories per day, so they have to eat while racing — grabbing their bag at ~22 mph.

I literally paid money to Peacock so that I could watch the Tour live. I did not pay to listen to Phil Liggett remind me to watch “America’s Got Talent” jfc. “We’ve got 2 riders on the course but they are boring so instead look at this river barge.” 🎤 #tourdefrance #thetourdefrance
