The people of Serbia celebrating the defeat of the dictator who held full authoritarian control of their country for nearly 14 years. This is what democracy looks like.

No duh. Only the most misogynistic people hate trans people. Ultimately, it’s all hatred of women.

A new survey of 1,000 American adults found that the strongest supporters of transgender sports bans are not the people who admire women most: they are the people who hold the most hostile views about women. www.helenwebberley.com/news/transge...

I’ve been saying for the past 10 years that if you stop amplifying the far right’s bullshit by outrage-sharing their posts, it’ll reduce their power. Glad to see at least Brazil was listening! 😆

I’m not a political journalist, so was gladly surprised at the community I found here last night. To Americans anxious about the upcoming elections, a key thing we learned in Brazil that might help you: DO NOT engage with the far-right online. Don’t share rage bait. Amplify your people. Ignore them.

This thread is why I believe we should just begin imagining and building a new system in this country. The old one is broken beyond repair now, anyway. We can keep what worked from the old system and chuck what didn’t work. It’s an opportunity.

That it'll fail because they lack sufficient consolidation and centralized control does not make it trivial that the president of the United States is trying to steal elections and produce an illegitimate sham Congress. It is open rebellion against the Constitution and morally tantamount to treason.

If you were waiting for your sign to donate to an insurgent campaign for Congress in Missouri...this is your sign. I'm current polling 5 points ahead of 14 yr incumbent Ann Wagner in a seat held by the GOP for 34 years. I need you now. We can take this across the finish line and change Missouri.

Nobody hates free speech more than the fascist tech oligarchs who claimed to care about it more than anyone. What an absolute joke. P.S. they also hate democracy. As we hand them control of the country. www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/politic...

Chuck Schumer — one of the most powerful Democrats in the country — has not issued statements to the press or through his social media channels about the administration’s attack on Ilhan Omar, which critics have described as a five alarm fire for the state of democracy in the U.S.

Lonesome Dove is having a big “moment” right now with readers of all genders, not just men. And that has more to do with the fact that LD is an extremely well-written novel (won the Pulitzer), unlike a majority of the schlock the publishing industry is paying huge $ for and pushing to readers.

Phillip Maciak@pjmaciak.bsky.social

"If more books were published by men with explicitly masculine themes, would there actually be a wider male readership?" This is very much in the Platnerian mode that presumes all men are only attracted to content by, for, and possibly about Tim "The Tool Man" Taylor. jacobin.com/2026/10/lone...
