This country has so much wealth, if people actually got paid what they're worth we could drop the retirement age to 50. Instead, they're tricking you into making it so your kids can never retire by demonizing trans people and immigrants.
All our problems originate with the rich.
TERRORISM EXPERT HERE: You cannot designate an idea as a terrorist group.
There is no organization called ANTIFA. There is no leadership or funding path. There is no membership. Also there is no law in American to charge terrorism. Ask Luigi.
What he is doing is setting the stage to designate ANY American as a terrorist. That’s Fascism.

The firing of @ClemsonUniv faculty members for posts about the murder of Charlie Kirk is the start of a troubling national trend.
FIRE reminds Clemson and all public universities that protected speech remains protected, even in tragedy.
BREAKING UPDATE: The government pressured ABC — and ABC caved. The timing of ABC's decision, on the heels of the FCC chairman’s pledge to the network to “do this the easy way or the hard way,” tells the whole story. Another media outlet withered under government pressure, ensuring that the administration will continue to extort and exact retribution on broadcasters and publishers who criticize it.
We cannot be a country where late night talk show hosts serve at the pleasure of the president. But until institutions grow a backbone and learn to resist government pressure, that is the country we are.

Suddenly "hate speech" is bad. Suddenly "dehumanizing" people is bad. Suddenly "cancel culture" is good. Suddenly words have consequences.
The modern American right in 2025, folks.
jesus christ everyone’s such a fucking whiny loser cry baby. i hated this shit when the “college campus sjws” were doing it and it’s even more unbearable when it’s 60 year old losers doing it on the right.
Why are these sports teams honoring charlie kirk when we were told that politics has no place in sports when Kaepernick took a knee to protest police brutality????
I'm 22-years-old, the same age as Tyler Robinson... and I believe we have a bigger problem here. Young men are being radicalized by the internet at an unprecedented rate, which was only accelerated by COVID's isolation + foreign actors trying to incentive this type of radicalization.
I've seen it happen to many of my friends - young men spending their formative years clawing back from COVID isolation, usually spending too much time deep in algorithms.
Now, people are debating whether Tyler Robinson was a far leftist or a groyper (all indicators point to him being a far leftist who was Republican just 2-3 years back) but here's the reality: IT DOES NOT MATTER. Another young white male who looks eerily similar shot up a high school at the SAME TIME Kirk was shot.
It does not matter that he was a leftist - he was only at the whims of the algorithm that was radicalizing him, that algorithm could have just as easily introduced him to Nick Fuentes. Half of his bullets had MEMES on them, this was not some ideologue was confident in his views.
My observation from the last few hours of monitoring US social media is that Democrats are universally denouncing political violence & calling for calm while MAGA are escalating rhetoric & lusting for retribution against broad categories of people they identity as their enemies.
