Old joke: at a protest, cop smacks liberal in the head. Calls him a "commie." "I'm an ANTI-Communist!" "I don't care what kind of Commie you are, you're coming down to the station house with me." Solidarity with all my siblings in resistance. The bad guys don't distinguish.
All liberals agree contrails aren't a Deep State plot to control our minds and that 2+2=4. This uniformity of opinion is quite concerning.
A food bank lined up with military members who didn’t receive a paycheck this week:
Kristi Noem did an alarming thing in Chicago last week. She could have been driven to a destination via a route avoiding protesters, for security. Instead, she took one THROUGH protestors, as if to invite martyrdom. Or at least, draw a pretext for a more general crackdown.
Interesting. I just described myself as a "historian of fascism." Without thinking about it. Am I? I guess it turns out I am.
Kudos. Porter draws a boundary against a gross normalization of fascism. Being for legally fighting to claim back power that has been stolen is morality, not something you decide from polls. "40% want Jews expelled. Don't you need their vote?" Just, no. youtube.com/watch?v=YhRIje…

Katie Porter threatens to cut off CBS News interview
Eh. He's just playing three-dimensional rodeo clown chess. Throwing his poop for attention.
🚨 Tucker Carlson just turned the gun around. Tucker Carlson is now accusing Trump’s regime of using Charlie Kirk’s assassination as a pretext to: - Abolish the First Amendment - Round up Americans - And Nazify the country Yes, Tucker said that. And for once… he’s not wrong.…
We might soon have either a Tienenman Square situation, or maybe an Oklahoma City. Possibly some mixture, which I suppose would be a Kristallnacht. Maybe I should start a pool. Either way, I'll be there in Chicago, with a bright white shirt like Harvey Milk. We shall overcome.
Mike Johnson: "We're so angry about it. I mean, I'm a very patient guy, but I've had it with these people. The theory we have right now -- they have a hate America rally that's scheduled for October 18 on the National Mall. It's the pro-Hamas wing and antifa people ... "
people on both the "zionist" and "anti-zionist" internet sports teams don't want to grapple with actual historical nuance rather than propaganda of either side great essay by @rickperlstein here. one of the few intelligent pieces of writing on this topic prospect.org/world/2024-02-…

The Neglected History of the State of Israel
The Revisionist faction of Zionism that ended up triumphing adhered to literal fascist doctrines and traditions.
Well, maybe the lack of environmental review, speaking of that era generally, helps explain why the environment is in collapse?
Reminder that we built the Golden Gate Bridge in 4.5 years. Today, we wouldn’t even be able to finish the environmental review in 4.5 years.
Out of the (about) 150 residents all of them were detained and only 37 were not US citizens. That means the other (roughly) 113 people who were detained were done so under a civil rights violation as none of them were presented with warrants nor were they criminals actively…
Wow. I was today years old when I learned fascists don't know that people sometimes take their clothes off to sleep during a heat wave. Useful!

This is my city. I know this neighborhood. The African Americans rousted out of their beds in the middle of the night, people whose people came here in the 18th and 19th century, did not come thru Biden's "open borders."
DHS law enforcement has made OVER 900 ARRESTS during Operation Midway Blitz in Illinois. To every criminal illegal alien: Darkness is no longer your ally. We will find you.
They systematically started breaking down doors in the middle of the night and rousting people out of bed, including two naked children, whom they zip-tied together in the street. Most weren't even immigrants. This is how liberty dies.

Here's ICE (a) patrolling a Chicago PUERTO RICAN neighborhood, (b) throwing a large amount of tear gas in the middle of a busy thoroughfare to deal with a scooter driver who was annoying him. reddit.com/r/LoganSquare/…
Chicago social media clogged with pictures of combat-clad masked agents marching in the bucolic park beside the Newberry Library, a gilded-age palace and the "Bean" in Millennium Park, blocking alleys of affluent neighborhoods, etc.
