Why should I feel sorry for you and answer your question?

Many things can be true. You can be sarcastic along with all the other observations made.

Just in time for FDR Jr to take the helm and… Oh God 😳 I guess I should stockpile TP, masks, and hand sanitizer. Did I forget anything for the next pandemic?

Corporation hired to win an election measures success in how fast they raise and burn money. Great example for how capitalism eschews value for profit AND how it paves the way for fascism by making fascism the path of least resistance.

Parent said it has NOTHING to do with building concentration camps. So it would be odd to expect that word in the article. Or did you realize they were being sarcastic? Then I guess you just didn’t like the joke and responded with being pedantic to distract from the point.

They could have moved to Canada or Europe with their level of privilege, but they bent the knee instead. It’s a matter of keeping that privilege for them.

Good. Do things like this at every chance. Normalcy is for loosers that this point.

Then who is supporting Nancy Pelosi?

Quip aside, let’s bring on the sunlight.

The consultants running the campaign measure success in dollars raised. That means they only messaged those politically engaged.

Oracle or someone worse would buy them. That’s how capitalism works.

Look, I’m not asking them to fall in their swords. I’m just asking that they don’t fly out to Maro Lago to say he’s normal actually.

These were the guys that told Biden not to step out of the race. These people also claimed Trump was fascist at one point. What changed? Did they ever have spines?

The way they treat entropy reminds me of those creationists that insist thermodynamics disproves evolution. I think this guy took it a step further and thinks evolution proves there must be a god simulated universe.

Fred Hampton spent more time building coalitions then he did calling his own cowardly.

GitHub definitely would and has in the past. YouTube-dl is on GitHub and gets a pass because it is used by researchers and archivists, both are fair use. forgejo.org would let you be your own fedi-github and might be worth checking out (could be easier than designing a plugin system and additional repos).

How do we gum up the works?

Seriously good read on what to do next: https://wagingnonviolence.org/2024/11/10-things-to-do-if-trump-wins/

The fascist power structure is unjust and so it is like an upsidedown pyramid being propped up by pillars: people who do the actual work are the pillars. This pyramid topples when those pillars are removed. This can be a workers’ strike in a certain sector (example given was the eastern shoremen refusing to load weapons for a war).

I’m also struck by how the article says to handle fear. We need to act as community and flip the script on their fear tactics.

The author of the article also has an interesting interview with Sam Seder where they talk about more historical examples: https://youtu.be/YLBM2SEL6Rc

Don’t blame me, I voted for Dr Eggman.

Those of us who are terminally online should definitely checking sources, but I don’t think that is practical for those working two shifts and taking care of a family.

SCOTUS: we stopped caring about being consistent
