Slavery wasn’t so bad?
Fuck that bullshit. And fuck anyone who has the nerve to say we talk to much about how bad slavery was. We can certainly talk about who benefitted from a crime against humanity. Just because a handful of racist monsters benefitted from enslaving others (in the land of “freedom”) doesn’t mean slavery had a good…

kill the messenger
If you don’t like the facts, get rid of the people responsible for gathering the data and find someone willing to cook the books. That’s basically what’s happening here. Pretty soon I’ll be one of those oldsters in a dystopian story sitting around the fire as the world burns yapping about how in my day…

free and fair elections?
Elections are not free and fair when a government acts to ensure the electoral outcome it wants. It’s worse when their actions are intended to affect Federal election outcomes. Looking at you, Texas. If California (or other states) acts to counteract this, it’s just as bad, but the stakes are so high in our broken…

methinks some thinks
The house passed a bill that would prevent stock trading by Senators and Reps. In a moment of spite or genius, I’m not sure which, someone renamed it the Pelosi bill. What better way to get this bill signed at some point than to make the GOP that they’re sticking to the Libs? Genius, I…

we ain’t going to space
Why on earth would you create the Space Force and then start dismantling the agency that builds the rockets to get you there? Answer: Because you intend to privatize the whole thing. Even though most of those rockets blow up or haven’t ever been to space. Government for billionaires funded by the poors at twice…

“everyone but me”
Watching the presidential meltdown over Epstein is terrifying and hilarious. SCOTUS handed him presidential immunity. But he wants to jail Obama who would be, per SCOTUS, immune from anything he did while in office. He bloviates about free speech but he got Colbert cancelled and he’s suing yet another media company for publishing words he…

“i don’t draw”
Says the man who from time-to-time donated or auctioned off doodles. Gee, I wonder what the secret was? And let’s talk for a second about how the behavior of men who appear to be interested in having sex with minors is being described as “bawdy.” Like it’s no big deal. It’s the same fucking bullshit…

no list?
Do I have it right that someone who ran a sex trafficking operation catering to rich men did not keep track of favorite types of girls to traffic for these pedos? I mean maybe not. But it’s ironically and tragically hilarious to me that the GOP has been talking for YEARS about this client list…

that didn’t take long
It didn’t take long for Elon Musk and DOGE to be responsible for deaths. It was the predicted result of the NOAA cuts compounded by Texas doubling down on their conviction that government should never help those who have consented to being governed. If government does not exist to help the governed, then what’s it…

when reporting is the story
This whole Mamdani story isn’t a story about a progressive candidate for Mayor of NYC who crushed his fellow candidates in the primary. The story is about the morally bankrupt editors at the NYT. A Nazi who promotes race theories based on writings that were discredited and debunked decades ago gave the paper hacked documents…
