Libs put that shit in vaccines, too. It’s all connected!

Y’know some days I’ve thought the same thing, especially with the absurdity of the last few years. To the incident you described, I think that person may very well have been mentally disabled, or on drugs, or otherwise mentally “out of it”. The human brain is incredibly complex and finicky, and that makes sense considering it’s really intricate meat that is zapping itself with electricity.

In my own life I’ve seen a fair number of people who seem fully tapped out. I believe this trend has been amplified by the overstimulating nature of our media landscape; the rise of short-form content; the normalization of outsourcing thinking to “AI” processes; the general stress and tension in the world…

Gonna say the thing: IDGAF if kids see porn online. I’d far prefer children explore pornography and learn what they are and are not comfortable with; rather than risk being exploited by less-naive children or adults. Open access to porn is the harm reduction. They are images on a screen.

Let’s not pretend that today’s adults never saw porn growing up. I, a Gen Z kid, saw porn at young ages. There are reasons I am “off” in the head but none of them have to do with porn; and many of them have to do from forces who, among other things, push the purity culture narrative. This is the exact same over-dramatic messaging as the USA’s War on Drugs or its “Satanic Panic”—both of which source from purity culture and both of which have harmed significantly more kids than what they hoped regulate.

She is accused of knowingly encouraging minors to skip school, disrupt campus activities, and make threats.

Hmm… what might those threats be?

Chollet told students she supported the walkout, praised those participating and indicated a group of adults would join them.

okaaaaay

Her comments, officers wrote, appeared to influence students who later made threats of vandalism and violence toward a specific individual.

Sounds like she’s the next Larry Bushart (a man arrested making FaceBook posts mocking Charlie Kirk; who officers allege distressed local residents of a nearby school).

Seeing members of Trump’s cabinet joking about feeding 60 million to alligators; the White House itself posting Nazi propaganda; the daily terrorism of ICE… “complete what we started” evokes the feeling of a “Final Solution”.

He swam in sewage-tainted water to “disprove” germ theory.

I bought it until I saw the community.

for Roblox, at least, you’re not missing out. If I wanted to get fleeced by a bunch of pedophiles and bigots, I’d check out the next RNC gathering.

No countries are going to block Steam for not preventing alt-right hate-groups from leaving hate comments on store pages. Reddit and TikTok are regularly censoring users criticizing alt-right hate groups and international Satanic pedophiles, and no nation has even considered blocking them AFAIK.

absolutely. thanks for posting :)

and the Jan 6th insurrection hearing… and the 14th amendment section 3…

It always could get worse. That doesn’t change how bad they are now; nor that they’re steadily getting worse.

In the event Republicans do steal that election, then what? How do we decide that happened? If the elections are delayed a month, is that the cue? What about three months? What about two years? What if the new election will happen next month? Do we still declare the election stolen? What if Republicans keep all the seats they have in the House and Senate, and gain 20 more in the House. Is that rigged because Democrats “should have” won? By what logic?

We’re seeing an administration united on brutalizing people and mangling our democracy, brutalize people and mangle our democracy. Maybe 2026 will be the year progressives sweep the House—Maybe—; but after 9 years watching my country continue to push the bar on how bad things can get, while constantly being told that there was going to be a progressive blue wave resurgence—and seeing people say the same throughout Reagan, Bush, Clinton, W. Bush, Obama, Trump-1, Biden, Trump-2…

I feel we’re being played here. Are we not just being strung along? All I’ve heard is this messaging to wait just a bit longer and then watching everything get worse as people sit idle.

I just find it awfully suspicious how the winning plan to defeat this Corporate/White supremacist/Christofascist regime is to keep everything calm so the corporations can keep earning; while the white supremacists and Christofascists keep killing and maiming thousands of people of color and others they’ve branded “undesirables”. Where is this messaging coming from? It’s being echoed all around, but what is the source? It feels like we’re being gaslit here, or led by yet another naive voice telling us to “stop overreacting”.

I’m actually suggesting the Hong Kong protest principle of “Do Not Split”

Understanding that we don’t have that elected leadership, do we just let people die en-masse? If our mayors and governors stood up and said they refuse to comply with federal orders, then what? The national guard was federalized in LA, and we saw troops shoot reporters and peaceful citizens in LA and Minneapolis.

Obviously there are no easy answers here. That ship sailed when Donald Trump won re-election. If your answer is “we sit back and wait for something to save us” then that’s your answer. Seeing the ongoing mass-murder by ICE, border patrol, and the rest of the bipartisan-founded Republican-led terrorists; that answer doesn’t sit right with me.

As I said in my comment, the killing frenzy is here. This government has become more emboldened than ever in oppressing and brutalizing us citizens because they’ve been taking slow steps toward fascism for decades. The War on Drugs; Bush v. Gore; The Patriot Act; the reporters of Ferguson; Trump’s first term executive order overreach; the fucking Insurrection—This year: DOGE; ICE; CECOT; Tariff War; Plus we’re just now seeing everything in the Epstein files which was happening as well for decades.

Decades of peaceful protesting and it hasn’t worked. We’ve only been losing ground. 2015’s gay marriage decision was a fluke; and the Affordable Care Act was more of a duct-tape fix than true reform.

We’ve had two real assassinations in the USA: Brian Thompson in December 2024, and Charlie Kirk in September 2025. Do you think the government wanted either of those? Judging from the bipartisan condemnation, absolutely not. Folks like me are not saying to mow down a red state neighborhood. We’re saying to resist the ICE deployments, physically, when they show up.

You’re right that the US government wants a killing frenzy. It’s the one they are enacting, every day of the majority of this term. Even if Republicans’ intent in disappearing these tens-of-thousands, maybe hundreds-of-thousands of people is to bait a reaction from people, what is the alternative? We… let tens of thousands of human beings get disappeared? The dehumanization of these victims is sickening and yet it continues to be perpetuated by “holier than thou” liberals who either don’t realize what they’re suggesting, or don’t care.

So, let’s say no one does anything in retaliation. Why wouldn’t they just make shit up? Well… the answer is, they have. We’ve got Stephen Miller on FOX ranting about how blue cities were littered with “body after body after body” under Biden; talking about how Portland would burn to the ground every night. It’s all lies. They lie. We know they lie. Their biggest ally, big tech, spent billions of dollars over the last several years making machines that fake evidence and gaslight people. The White house has used AI-generated images and videos to humiliate activists and produce propaganda.

IF we ever claw back our nation from fascism, and that is a big IF, scholars will ask why no one did anything—how this could happen with the open internet, a tool believed to be able to mitigate and prevent the rise of fascism. This constant fearmongering about the “Insurrection Act” and insistence to not react is a significant part of that answer, and I will preach that to the grave.

Reminder that Nancy Mace–one day after running out of survivor testimony having an (understandable) nervous breakdown–then declared “President Trump is the one who is COMMITTED to protecting women and kids.”

Nancy Mace is no hero. She’s breaking party lines on one vote. MTG did the same, even calling out Trump himself, then proceeded to rally for the hardest anti-trans bill the House has ever seen on the way out.

I’m genuinely losing my mind at this take. For the last 13 months we’ve seen thousands of human people walked to their death – watched planes of human beings take off and return empty; and still half of the comments I see that suggest taking action beyond peaceful marches and waiting for the 2026 midterms get this “smarter than thou” smug response from people, some claiming to be 50501 liberals. Sometimes it’s, like, 15 lines and a song quote; with the occasional ALL CAPS “DO NOT TAKE THE BAIT”.

People are dying, folks; now. Come to reality. A clash with ICE, especially in the first months when they were untrained and barely armed, wouldn’t have accelerated anything–because we didn’t have that and yet we are here. This mythical “Insurrection Act” invocation wouldn’t have caused the terrorism we are witnessing now; nor the deployments in LA or Portland. Yes, people will die in clashes with the state; but what’s the alternative? Letting people die in raids from the state? We watched camera footage with video of pro-Palestinian activists getting disappeared. We’ve seen masked agents killing hundreds of people across the states, every month. We’ve seen them raid neighborhoods, and pull people into vans. We’ve seen our police watch, do nothing, then arrest the bystanders for “causing a disturbance”. Every. Day.

The part of me that is clinging onto some partial hope in human nature wants to blame this widespread passivity propaganda for the reason it took a year to have the resistance effort in Minneapolis, which there had been nothing like until that point. Really, though, I sense the real reason behind these arguments and the wider inaction, is that the targets of ICE have been predominantly people of color, and mainly Hispanic folks. So, too, were the kids in cages through the first Trump and Biden administrations.

I understand that Holocaust poem in a depth that I just didn’t understand before. I understand the Holocaust documentaries and testimonies I’ve watched in a depth I hadn’t gotten before.

You aren’t outsmarting the Republicans by standing back as they kill thousands; tens-of-thousands; hundreds-of-thousands of people of color. You’re giving them exactly what they wanted: A “second American Revolution”; [white]-bloodless “if the left allows it to be.”
