If only somebody online would tell me what a grave and alarming situation we are in as a country in a hostile and defensive tone. Only then would I have the conviction to personally stop the bad things.

senators gotta stop doing posts that are like "this is a huge problem. act like it." dude I know it's a huge problem. that's what I elect you to deal with. I'm a guy in a used hoodie and costco pants, you're a senator.

Thinking about this quote from Persepolis creator Marjane Satrapi again.

This is it, this is what the United States is.

And you can say you didn’t vote for this but you did, it didn’t matter who you voted for this was always on the fucking table, look at the democratic response

no amount of CIA propaganda will ever convince me that these people are my enemies

you work for a company whose co-founder said it was created to "blow up commies", who tf did you think you were going to be helping?

You could actually structure your moral code around the idea that law enforcement doesn't exist to execute people. You don't have to create perfect victim narratives, you can just refuse to accept that the state gets to kill people.

God it fills my heart up to read stuff like this

I have never felt more seen by a Post

one of the funniest things about rahm emmanuel talking about his possible presidential run is his first big idea is "ban social media for anybody under 16". massive crises springing up all over and his first thought is "the dang kids are on the internet too much"

the threat of deportation creates an underclass that can't access the justice system or public services. these people are then exploited. that's the entire point. ICE and DHS (and their European counterparts, etc) are not "failing to address" this, they exists *to* create this underclass!

man it's so awesome that state force can apparently only ever be deployed against people protesting cruelty and never against the ones causing the cruelty

trying to avoid "told you so" in favor of "do you see where i'm coming from now"

If the Dems will cave on this there is no right of yours that they will not throw away if it means they can go on vacation. I hate them with my whole heart.

Zohran was polling at six percent in January. Nothing is impossible

Every time you see an inaccurate post mentioning how Silksong, Clair Obscur, etc was made by like 12 people in their basement with no internet remember that some C-Suite exec is going to point at that when signing new games, cutting studios and teams, and dismantling foundational pillars

20 years ago we were suing teenagers for millions of dollars because they were torrenting a single Metallica album and now billionaires are demanding the free right to every work in history, so that they can re-sell it. The law only ever serves capital.
