Remember if you’ve ever heard a Republican claim they’re actually ok with immigration but just want all the immigrants to do it legally, they were lying

being in the DSA is fun because you get to spend most of your time helping people with social anxiety canvass for democratic school board candidates and then go online to see people with blue wave emojis in their bios compare you to pol pot

Remember when people had concerns about voting for Biden (then Harris) because of how they would handle Gaza and were basically told to shut up because Trump’s plan would be even worse?

Oh you think you’re struggling financially in a system that’s rigged against you while our Nazi pedophile rulers plunder the country? Have you checked out these various charts that say you’re not struggling?

THERE IS SOMETHING GOING ON HERE THAT WE CANNOT EXPLAIN. The economy is not in a recession. The economy is not worse than 2020 or 2008 or 1979. Whatever is happening here, it cannot be plausibly attributed to people’s real lived experiences. There is some other factor causing this collapse.

Really? We’re jumping straight over “controversial figure” and going with “firearms enthusiast”?

Kyle Rittenhouse, who gained fame for opening fire at a 2020 civil rights rally in Wisconsin, was hospitalized after he was bitten by a venomous spider, the noted firearms enthusiast says.

This is a rehash of the vibecession debates but median household income adjusted for inflation hit a record in 2024 (2025 data will be released in September). It’s just *not true* in any objective sense that people don’t have money anymore. It may *feel* that way but that’s different from reality.

if you're using this as your opportunity to posture about how sensitive you are to racial issues and utterly ignoring neurodivergent people's concerns, I will hold you in contempt going forward. that's some real woke 1 bullshit

@jamellebouie.net is it still crazy/overreacting/ “basically voter suppression” to point out that he’s going to try to meddle with the 2028 election?

Trump today: “We should take over the voting in at least 15 places. The Republicans ought to nationalize the voting because we have states that are so crooked.”

Without revealing your actual age,what's something you remember that if you told a younger person they wouldn't understand?

My whole life, advocating war has been fed to me as “the adult position,” akin to drinking your coffee black or reading the business section of the newspaper. Let’s be very clear — war is the childish nonsense of impulsive destructive idiots playing baby-brained video games with real human lives.

This is such a crazy response to a mass shooting. Don’t Australians learn anything from the U.S.? You respond with “thoughts and prayers” to mass shootings!

The right: we are the party of common sense solutions, freedom, and staying out of people’s business Someone: [commits a crime] Also the right: tell us about their genitals! We must know about their genitaaaalllssss!!!!!

I’d hardly call someone quoted once in the article as an aside a “primary source”. I’m also curious how they think an article attempting to explain people fed up with (both) parties is “promoting facism”. However I cannot speak to Ken’s sexual proclivities with regard to rodents.

I Nied braaaaiiiiins 🧟@nied.bsky.social

It uses a sexpest as it's primary source & it's written by a known ratfucker. It's a garbage article written by garbage people intended to promote fascism.

You are up to date.
