Timothy Snyder is a history professor with a specialty in Eastern Europe. He points out that authoritarians can be defeated with patience and organizing. Congratulations to Serbia and Brazil!

Raider@iwillnotbesilenced.bsky.social

Yet another entrenched authoritarian defeated yesterday in Serbia. As the United States approaches a critical midterm election, Serbia shows that we can win despite uphill authoritarian conditions. It can be done. It takes all of us, especially young people. Timothy Snyder

Please, Florida -- can we get at least one Senator who cares more about us than about playing stupid political games?

Angie Nixon@angieforfl.bsky.social

Florida is worth fighting for. I know it and you do too. Down here on the ground, we know something the pundits and donor class seem unable to see: Floridians are ready for change and we are the heroes we've been waiting for to see us through. #AngieforFlorida

A person who both knows what it is to struggle and who doesn't turn their back on other struggling people is the leader you want to lift us all up. Ohio has a great candidate for governor.

Christopher Webb@cwebbonline.com

Wow! Make Amy Acton governor. “I am making a promise to Ohioans...that no one in my state will ever, ever be invisible to me."

Florida: we have a chance to have at least one Senator who isn't a warmonger. Please support Angie Nixon!

Rick Scott: "I'm sure it's gonna take a lot more bombing and destroying of the Iranian military force" (So much for their military being decimated I guess!)

California voters: Don’t fall for billionaires’ tricks. Vote YES on Prop 40. Vote NO on Props 41 and 42. Let me explain.

Good morning. Housing, fair wages, and healthcare are worth marching for. Peaceful protest deserves protection. Violence harms communities. As the far right exploits frustration across Europe, the US offers a warning: protect democracy before those promising order take away your rights.

I've been saying for years that I didn't want kitchen appliances, particularly those that can generate heat, hooked up to the internet -- for reasons that should have been obvious to anyone who hasn't been hibernating for the past 10 yrs.

Your 'bonus moment of doom' for today: "A major cyberattack targeting commercial refrigeration systems across France ... Rather than shutting systems off, the attackers remotely reprogrammed cooling regulators to force a continuous defrost cycle, driving internal temperatures up to 50C (122F)."

Hegseth is an idiot, and these crooks will play him like a fiddle.

Nicholas Grossman@nicholasgrossman.bsky.social

Pete Hegseth picked Elon Musk and Palmer Luckey to lead a Pentagon future of war project. It's: -Corrupt! Big Trump donors. -Conflict of interest! Defense contractors who will recommend their products. -Dangerous! Embeds techno-fascists deeper into US defense architecture. My latest, in @ms.now:

Angie Nixon would be a great Senator. If you're in Florida, vote early!

Angie Nixon@angieforfl.bsky.social

Let me make it a little bigger for the folks in the back… VOTE FOR ME NOV 3RD! Make your plan to vote today at AngieNixon.com/vote. Change can’t wait, Florida! LET’S GO! #AngieForFlorida

Purging the top military ranks for political loyalty is no way to win any wars, but it can be very useful domestically.

Zacharydideas@zacharygg.bsky.social

Trump, Hegseth, Et al., have removed the top ranking officers of the military in an attempt to create a military that will turn on the American people. This is a sign of that. They aren’t firing general officers to save money. They are getting rid of the true patriots.

Do not become complacent. Also if you can, offer to take people without transportation with you.

Jon Husted has voted 14 times to continue the Iran War – raising the price of gas and diesel to record highs – after receiving campaign contributions from Chevron and Exxon.

People are working more and still being left with less time and less room to build a life. I talked with @newsweek.com about the pressure working families are under and why I believe work should support a life, not consume it. #AngieForFlorida

In Florida, last day to register is October 5!

Hoodlum 🇺🇸@nothoodlum.bsky.social

IMPORTANT: There are 15 states that require in-person registration 28–30 days before an election, meaning this maybe your last week to register. Check your registration at Vote.gov.

Not holding my breath waiting for theaters around here to show this, but the trailer is worth a look:

Mrs. Betty Bowers@mrsbettybowers.bsky.social

The major platforms—Facebook, YouTube, and X—are all refusing to show the trailer for the upcoming documentary that eviscerates the ridiculous pest Elon Musk. So I guess we have to do our part to make sure it is seen. www.youtube.com/watch?v=eY_8...
