I think we'd all do well to ignore what's happening in the Dem party at the moment and focus energy on the bad guys dismantling the country.

I doubt any of the folks we used to look to, now squabbling over power, some speaking well, others cowering, will lead us out of this mess.

Acabo de ver un video de los #velezonanos detenidos y deportados por #Trump a El Salvador usando una ley del siglo XVIII para tiempos de guerra.

La #democracia americana ha muerto con el beneplácito mayoritario de la población, que sabía perfectamente cuál era el plan, pero les ha importado poco poner a #fascistas sin careta en la #CasaBlanca porque los precios de los #huevos y la gasolina eran muy altos.

Y los huevos siguen en máximos históricos, porque aunque esa fue la excusa que los fascistas usaron, nunca fue lo que en realidad les movía. Les mueve el poder, el dinero y el odio.

#MalditosFascistas y #MalditosCanallas que los apoyan.

I'm seeing an uptick in video essays under the guise of "just asking questions" attempting to claim there is a conspiracy to destroy #OpenSource, #OpenHardware, #FOSS projects and culture by Far-Left Extremists, #Wokeism, and the #DEI agenda.

None of this is new. They only exploit a new sense of entitlement to more openly speak and act as they long have, emboldened by the spread of anti-democratic, authoritarian, irrational, emotion-driven, ethnocentric rhetoric and assaults on liberty by #Trump and the #TrumpRegime

Continued thread

2/2 "Some news organizations will fight, in an atmosphere of constant anxiety, with the prospect of growing irrelevance. Others will count the cost and give in to pressure. And others will feel the direction of the wind and submit on their own, under no pressure at all, like the circus animal that doesn’t need a trainer to tell it to jump."

"The Washington Post is dying not in darkness but by the light of noon, and by its own hand. Over the past few months, the Post’s owner, Jeff Bezos, has shed a large part of the paper’s workforce, asserted control over the management of its newsroom, spiked a presidential endorsement for the first time in the paper’s history, and driven out some of its best writers and editors."

#Hasbara #trolls on social media:

- #Israel is legitimate nation because #UN said so

Also Hasbara troll:

- UN is #antisemitic to demand Israel to respect UN resolution 242 and all the other demands

#Bluesky is as infested with these pro-genocide PEFPs as #Twitter used to be. They hate #Trump (domestically) but LOVE his foreign policy!

Quds News‬: #Netanyahu: We will deal with the International Criminal Court and International Justice with all firmness, with American support.

This is what happens when you let criminals off the hook so then they get backing of the big bad bully to go after the legal institutions that was built to prevent such crimes (in words only).
