This common view reflects belief in a type of Jewish and German exceptionalism: That no people in history have ever been or will be more persecuted than Jews, and no people have ever been or can be more evil than leaders of Nazi Germany. The view is both ahistorical and extraordinarily dangerous.

"Jon Ossoff, my advice to him is, if you start calling your political opponents Nazis, maybe it's time to shut up. That's just not what we do here in this country." -- David Brooks, this evening. Remember, Brooks still gets very handsomely rewarded by the fossilized media for saying shit like this

I was deputy M.E. at the WSJ when Murdoch took over, with a similar β€œeditorial independence board.” Within 4 months, our top editor was gone, replaced by a loyal Murdoch deputy. That board raised a quivering objection, but the deed was done. If the Ellisons own CNN, they’ll do whatever they want.

The State AGs were on pace to kill the Paramount/Warner Bros by litigation and delay until Gavin Newsom stepped in and turned the tide. Now the Trump loyalist Ellisons will control CNN and HBO. Don't ever, ever forget that Newsom stabbed us in the back www.wsj.com/business/med...

β€œWhen the fight against the imperialist state inside the West grows weak, external despotic states become a substitute for social power. The answer to this deadlock is not a defense of the liberal bombers. The answer is rebuilding anti-imperialism from below.” newpol.org/issue_post/a...

Has anyone every wrote a comparative study between the Versaille Treaty and post-Soviet "shock doctrine" introduced into Russia? Feel there is something there to the "we defeated this country and kicked them while they were down and oh no they came back 20 years later more powerful and pissed!"

Like reading through how the Bush Sr administration treated Gorbachev's reform efforts or the IMF/World Bank treated post-Soviet Russia, you can only conclude these ghouls had no concept of blowback or long term consequences. All they saw was a defeated enemy and not how this come back to bite them

Kicking a great power while its down under the assumption that it could never rise again reallt does seem like a foolish move looking at history. Give a people a grievance and time to nurture that grievance and they very might well put their lot in with a nationalistic tyrant out for revenge

The son of the man shot and killed by ICE: I am Ronaldo Salgado, the oldest son of Lorenzo Salgado Araujo. He should've been picking up the last of his guys before heading to finish up construction. Unbeknownst to all of us, my dad had been shot inside his van by ICE agents in unmarked cars.

In the universe next door, the map did include Jewish neighborhoods and exactly the same people are outraged he’s equating Jews with foreigners.

As one Maine Democrat puts it: "It is a lobster cage fight with the rubber bands off. It is a death match right now between every single apparatus in the Democratic Party."

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

funny how the cutting edge of the far right is just regurgitated slaveholder agitprop from 1850.
