How do we not know about these things until after the fact. The Republicans are light years ahead of us in organization, messaging, opposition research, etc.

It’s not enough just to defeat Trump. We need to take back the Senate, the House of Representatives, clear the fascists from the SCOTUS, and take back the state legislatures.

This is a war and we can not be divided. We must stick together and defeat this Republican scourge begore they take away the right to vote and protest.

Your very existence depends on voting and defeating every Republican candidate on the 2024 ballot.

Michael de Adder, Washington Post :: [Scott Horton]

* * * *

Fascists despised the small truths of daily existence, loved slogans that resonated like a new religion, and preferred creative myths to history or journalism. They used new media, which at the time was radio, to create a drumbeat of propaganda that aroused feelings before people had time to ascertain facts. And now, as then, many people confused faith in a hugely flawed leader with the truth about the world we all share. Post-truth is pre-fascism.

I think one of the biggest fuck ups I find myself in is the fact that I do not have a me.

I do not have me, because I abandon myself first to be somewhere else, thinking that someone, somewhere might take care of me.

I think, I believe that If I save everyone else, I will be saved too.

"Having refused the poor what is necessary, they give the rich what is superfluous."

It is not because of the few thousand francs which would have to be spent to put a roof over the third-class carriages or to upholster the third-class seats that some company or other has open carriages with wooden benches. What the company is trying to do is to prevent the passengers who can pay the second class fare from traveling third class; it hits the poor, not because it wants to hurt them, but to frighten the rich. And it is again for the same reason that the companies, having proved almost cruel to the third-class passengers and mean to the second-class ones, become lavish in dealing with first-class passengers. Having refused the poor what is necessary, they give the rich what is superfluous.

The Second Tenet of Conservatism:

"Sharing is Not Caring" breaks down thusly:

"The (Unchangeable/Eternal) System demands suffering."

"Therefore it is better for some to suffer than for all to suffer."

"And by all we mean NOT us and/or me."

Let us be brutally honest with ourselves and with eachother for a moment. If he weren't obese you motherfuckers would be capable of percieving evrart claires sexy sexy moral ambiguity and complex charms

#i am (lesbian) sipping him like a fine DESSERT WINE #my evidence by the way is very simple and very damning. joyce messier. there i said it. #if you guys can appreciate the fact that Joyce is a complex figure worthy of disgust yes but also worthy of empathy #despite being a venal coward facilitating acts of violence and slaughter of the organized working poor of martinaise in the name of capital #if you can understand that she is a dimensional figure while also being an embodiment of the moral apathy and cruelty if capital owners #but you cant look at evrart and see that he is (while deeply flawed and morally suspect) also a dimensional figure #on top of the fact that his motivations are eminently relatable and dare i say it baser #and his greatest failing imho is in failing to advocate for the interests of *all* the poor of martinaise #opting instead to marginalize the inhabitants of the fishing village in favor of a power grab in the interests of himself and his union #though this is imo a bit of a grey area morally. undeniably a wrong and bad thing to do but done in service of clairs political goals #to gather power to advocate for the working class against ultraliberal monoliths like wild pines and fascistic orgs like krenel #still super wrong but i can follow the moral arithmetic there tho i don't like it #but like my point is if u can see that joyce is evil and pathetic but still cool and sexy but you consider clair flatly distasteful #thats cus hes not conventionally attractive #cus he is *every bit* as dimensional and interesting as joyce and he is not nearly as politically shite even if hes interpersonally a jerk

It’s maddening how often the phrase “cartoonishly evil” runs through my brain when I read things like this. Fuck 12.
