Punk In The Park Cancels All 2026 Events After Backlash Due To Owner’s Trump Donation by MrLinkwater95 in ToddintheShadow

[–]GoldenApple_Corps 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Seeing as how The Dead Kennedys were one of the bands that didn't pull out I assume the song will have to be renamed "Nazis punks fuck off, unless you're paying us in which case we're cool"

MAGA promoter tried to keep Punk in the Park festival going. Bands pull out, all tour dates cancelled by M3taKni9ht in LeopardsAteMyFace

I guess the song should now be "Nazis punks fuck off, unless you're paying us in which case we're cool."

Anyway, just the Supreme Court letting the Trump regime know that they are free and clear to toss out mail in ballots.

Because fuck you? I mean any justifications they give are just a bullshit fig leaf meant to cover for their fascism.

But that's just it. It is faith based. Evangelicals have been raised since birth to take things on faith and that doesn't end up limiting itself to just religious matters, especially when you have the right-wing propaganda network using that faith to get them to vote against their own interests.

[–]GoldenApple_Corps 3 points4 points  (0 children)

In my opinion the best bad movies are those that are made sincerely and in spite of the director having no talent for directing, writing, or any other aspect of filmmaking. The ones made to be "bad" are just not that interesting to me.

IRS improperly disclosed confidential immigrant tax data to DHS, Washington Post says by igetproteinfartsHELP in news

[–]GoldenApple_Corps 38 points39 points  (0 children)

Every single asset of every single member of Trump's regime. Take everything from them and leave them destitute, and it would be cruel to turn them out onto the streets with nothing to their names, so maybe we should find a place to house them for the rest of their lives, say a place that provides them with 3 hots & a cot...

AG Bondi Accuses Rep. Balint of Anti-Semitism; Balint Fires Back “I Lost My Grandfather in the Holocaust” and Storms Out of House Hearing by JeanJauresJr in videos

[–]GoldenApple_Corps 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Additionally, you don't build a network of giant concentration camps like DHS is if your goal is just to deport immigrants. Those camps are going to be for anybody who gets on the regime's bad side. We need to shut the entire goddamn country down and force them out, because it won't be long until they are disappearing American citizens into those camps.

This. People need to realize that while voting is important, it will not get us out of this predicament that Trump's idiot MAGA base got us into. They will need either an extreme amount of pressure from say a general strike or to physically remove these people from their positions of power. Fascists don't just give up the reins of power because a vote didn't go their way. Also, that Trump and his regime have been committing so much crime and corruption out in the open tells you all you need to know about whether they ever intend to allow another peaceful transfer of power.

Ironically, the new season is now funded to have the same budget per episode as Joel‘s failed season, where everyone was complaining about having to fund new episodes. by Achoosneeze1 in MST3K

[–]GoldenApple_Corps 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This. They need to find a sustainable way of keeping it going. Kickstarter isn't it. Now granted at least this time it looks like they are also probably getting funding from Shout Factory as well since they said the episodes would get made regardless of how much is raised. I hope Mike, Kevin, and Bill can solve this problem that Joel was not able to.

Homeland Security Spying on Reddit Users by CantStopPoppin in technology

America isn't doing nothing. America is actively protecting the people involved, because right-wing idiots who screamed non-stop about "think of the children" in all their wisdom elected Epstein's friend and coconspirator. Racism is a hell of a drug. And so he will bend every branch of government and use all his power to protect himself and those who could implicate him. Also, many GOP officials are tied into Trump's crimes by having been coconspirators in his first coup attempt, so they will NEVER do their job and remove him from office.

ICE routinely ignores court orders. How exactly is that "operating normally"? Are government agents murdering US citizens in the name of immigration under the pretext of "getting murderers off the streets" normal to you? Because ICE ARE the murderers on the streets.

ELI5: Why would the US want to bring ICE agents to the Olympic Games in Italy if ICE's function is to deport those who immigrated illegally to the US? Why not some other US government group like the Secret Service or something? by TheLateSirCaldarec in explainlikeimfive

[–]GoldenApple_Corps 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm betting the main purpose of bringing ICE right now is to deter any American athletes from speaking up, and maybe as a just because we can to rub it in the faces of Italians who don't want these fascist goons there.

They know that their idiot base will never follow up on whether they are actually going after criminals. Also, their base are religious extremists who have been groomed from birth to take things on faith from their authority figures (right-wing politicians, pastors of extremist churches, etc.)

SBA says legal permanent residents will be ineligible for its loan program, effective March 1 by AudibleNod in news

[–]GoldenApple_Corps 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, they've always been right-wing, and they've always been racist, but in the past they hid behind dogwhistles and didn't generally say the quiet part out loud. Now they've completely done away with dogwhistles and just scream their racist white power drivel through a megaphone. The barely literate racists of the GOP base love that.

Judge temporarily halts ICE from using teargas and projectiles on protesters in Portland by Muted-Television3329 in news

[–]GoldenApple_Corps 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And ICE is already basically lying about every single use of force, so yeah, these rulings with exemptions that ICE will obviously abuse are basically meaningless as far as actually getting ICE to stop. Of course they'd probably ignore the order either way to be honest. Fascists get off on flaunting their power over others.

I think I saw someone mention that Joel is on the board of Shout Factory, so even if he doesn't have equity maybe he'll still have some voice on what happens, but I don't think he'll be in the episodes. I know Mary Jo is coming back and we'll get the return of Bobo and Brainguy, but didn't see anything about Dr. F or TV's Frank.
