“Incrementalism is irresponsible. Pushing for the middle or the moderate has not yielded us the wins that we need.”
The socialist candidate WI Dems are scrambling to stop today. https://t.co/NKiJ7r7OZZ
January 6 was containable. The Wilmington coup of 1898 was not.
The former challenged the state; the latter crushed a multiracial working-class coalition that threatened the ruling class: https://t.co/2gjOYQ79SB
A new vision statement from Dem Senator @ElissaSlotkin exemplifies corporate Dems' not-so-subtle art of promising to fix problems while refusing to confront the donors creating those problems.
It's the Politics of Villain Avoidance - the kind that voters have come to loathe.
The most affluent and influential-in-DC white liberal women like this endlessly depict themselves as vulnerable victims of sexism because they hear mean criticisms of their political views online from the peasants.
Meanwhile, they (along with @NeeraTanden) are attacking Abdul El-Sayed as a misogynist solely because they're knowingly exploiting stereotypes of Muslim and Arab men.
Unfortunately, a lot of people are going to find out the hard way that those of us on the academic and research side who’ve been pointing out that you can in no way simply vote out fascism once it is taken power at the level it has in the USA have been correct the entire time.
Ladies and gentlemen, meet this fuckass studio A24.
- first, they were copyright striking BACKROOMS themed items and wallpaper designs
- and now, they are copyright striking Indie Backrooms Games
I SWEAR, A24 thinks they OWN Backrooms
A24 doesn't deserve Kane Parsons, tbh.
In Hopkins, Minnesota ICE agents tell a child that they will put a bullet in her head if she doesn't shut up.
Remember, these people are trained by the IDF.
The literacy crisis isn’t that people can’t read the words. It’s that they can’t understand the context, infer meaning, recognise nuance, identify contradictions, or draw logical conclusions from what they’ve read.
Today, Congresswoman Stevens had a choice: stand with the majority of Democrats who oppose unconditional military aid to Israel, or stand with the special interests funding her campaign. She chose to side with AIPAC and Republicans to continue to fund a war machine that has taken the loved ones of many Michigan families. She made her choice. You make yours.
if you're wondering how these people can be so out of step with the demands of their base (74% of dems want to cut off aid to israel), look no further than the $50mil dumped into the michigan senate race where abdul is running against an AIPAC stooge
The US war of aggression on Iran is what the Nuremberg Trials called “the supreme international crime” among war crimes. The US assassination of head of state Khamenei is a grave war crime. These fresh US crimes are never acknowledged as such in US media or among Serious People.
“I asked a few AI researchers whether they could name any other real-world software that scales so poorly. None of them could think of any. Even outside the world of software, it’s hard to find a comparable example, given that economy of scale is the principle that has made light bulbs, cars, and clothing so affordable. By economic and engineering measures, generative AI might be the worst technology ever deployed” @_alexreisner@TheAtlantic

This diarrhea parasite reminds me of how Biden/Harris could've reinstated the health regulations that Trump 1.0 killed, but chose to EXPAND his cuts to food testing and let a dairy lobbyist run the USDA instead.
Poisoning us to increase corporate profits is a bipartisan issue.
I said this about AI well over a year ago. Using it to diagnose and fire people with medical conditions so they lose their insurance AND their income is somehow even more heartless and evil than I’d predicted.
Notice how much brown there is in this scene. Brown was a real 70s color though it was still strong to quite strong through the 80s (like here) because there is always a lag.
But it was everywhere. Our world is more grey and less brown today.
