My suggestion personally is that trans folk start taking boating lessons. They might not let you leave by plane, but they can’t stop a small boat from leaving shore somewhere, anywhere, along the 28,000 miles of coastline along the East Coast. Purchasing an old fishing trawler will be helpful, as if your boat obviously has fishing equipment onboard, drone strikes are less likely and less justifiable — especially given how many wealthy, white Americans regularly pilot their little boat-houses to Bermuda every year.

Additionally, in less than three days’ voyage, you can reach several sovereign overseas European territories through which to claim asylum, such as St. Pierre and Miquelon (France), Bermuda (Britain), Sint Maarten (Dutch), and Greenland (Denmark). Stay out of public, and stay safe everyone. Now is the time to use all of those social-avoidance skills we have been practicing for decades.

You, my friend, would probably enjoy the magazine ‘AdBusters.’ I have been a subscriber since college, 20 years now.

you know what the worst part about the creeping nature of murderous, paranoid fascism is? the hypocrisy!

Does Tate mean like the list of doxx that Charlie’s defenders are compiling?

I hope Jimmy just releases his same monologues, but from his house like he did during the COVID lockdown.

Okay I know we’re all pretty deep into the nerdweb here, but let’s not lose the thread of reality here. ABC still pulls close to 5 million individual viewers every night, JUST on broadcast and cable rebroadcast. That ain’t fuckin nothing; TV is still an important and influential medium.

Spez got invited to talk to Congress about radicalism on social media. I bet that has something to do with it. Steve “Bugeyes” Huffman will not turn down an opportunity to help Trump out.

I’m confident they were just looking for a reason after Colbert. Seth Meyers better use his last few weeks before he gets pinched to come up with a contingency plan, cus this is a fucking crackdown.

I expected nothing and yet I’m still let down.

He had blood on his ear, too

Girl you never heard of GameShark?

As opposed to Israel which considered Palestinians just Arab colonizers and them just the righteous people who is going back to their land so they want them either expulsed to Egypt and other countries or kill them

??? This is literally the official position of the Russian Federation — they consider Ukrainians colonizers who unjustly rebelled and stole Russian land, assets, and production. Putin does not want to assimilate Ukrainians; the intention is total extermination and replacement with ethnic Russians, and always has been.

I am not here to debate which genocide is worse, because plainly, Palestinians are suffering yawning abuses that would make even Mussolini blush. I am just saying that Palestine is not the only active genocide happening in the world right now. Ukraine can fight back; Palestine cannot. That is plainly on a different level. There’s no need to imply I am an idiot just because I pay attention to other stuff happening in parts of the world that don’t report in English.

Same mindset that complains about how ridiculous traffic is from the pilot’s seat of a car, in traffic.

Girl, you are traffic.

Palestine is the only place where there is a war of extemination right now

Listen, I am about as active as any non-Israeli or non-Palestinian can be in anti-genocide discourse, but you’re smoking crack if you think that Russia’s intentions for Ukraine are to simply absorb their government and people. Russians by and by large do not believe Ukrainian culture is a thing, and in fact, have been breaking chunks off from their culture and absorbing it as their own since Moscow was founded by a couple of guys who got lost in the woods.

Russia’s goal is absolute cultural annihilation, and their actions have fit the standard definition of genocide since 2022.

I have long been of the opinion that if you read newspaper headlines like a WWF announcer, it really is indiscernible.

PRO-PALESTINE ACTORS ABSOLUTELY SLAM APARTHEID CLYDE, TAKING A SIXTY FOOT PLUNGE OFF OF HELL IN A CELL AND DIRECTLY ONTO AN ANNOUNCERS’ TABLE!!! BAWGAWD, THAT’S TRUMP’S THEME MUSIC

To quote Death Cab for Cutie, “he was a bastard in life, thus a bastard in death.”

Yeah and if I had wheels, I’d be a wagon.

Man, I saw that woman make a speech in honor of her husband and it sounded exactly like me giving a book report on a book I absolutely did not read because my brother rented Final Fantasy Tactics and I needed to finish it before it went back to Blockbuster.

Justice is the foundation of peace? Which hippie socialist said that?

looks at notes

Oh. Jesus. Hm…

Nazis did not have an ideology. They were a grievance movement that utilized a common folk scapegoat (Jewish and Roma migrants) to unify the fractured German political landscape in the Weimar Republic era.

It was a populist demogogue movement that cynically and callously used terminology that was common and popular among poor working class people in order to trick them into believing that their movement was about anything other than hatred, extermination, and pilfering public coffers. The ‘Socialist’ part of their name was a cynical play to attract those who were active in Communist organizing in the early 1900s.

There was no collective ownership in Nazi Germany. The government owned much of everything, and the only parties that benefited from that ownership were the individual cronies that Hitler personally feted. Nazi Germany was socialist in the way that Vladimir Putin’s Russian Federation is a Communist state — IN NAME ONLY.
