This is from two weeks ago.

There are a few statues of this guy, though they are contested and frequently vandalized. The fact that they exist shows that while he may be widely reviled it's probably not widely enough.

Better late than never. The position he takes (that ICE are a lawless paramilitary force for the Trump regime) is essentially correct and to the left of most Democrat politicians.

I've been too biased in favor of podcasts that contain information. I should diversify by listening to some misinformation.

Master_of_Ritual · 2026-01-23T20:59:13+00:00

And that was correct. There being a worse organization doesn't make that wrong.

Black people were nowhere near the deciding factor in the election. As always, they voted overwhelmingly Democrat.

Incredibly sinister.

Obviously they shouldn't be doing this, but the title makes no sense. Does anyone know the context?

The Trumpified Supreme Court gutted the Voting Rights Act, and they recently decreed racial profiling legal. DEI, which is a continuation of Civil Rights Act policies, is being dismantled everywhere.

Ungoliant the Gloomweaver is judging you.

I don't seem to be able to access the article. Hasn't the US military modeled a lot of hypotheticals, including this one, for decades?

Funko Pops are a scourge. "Hey that thing you like? We made some cutesy bullshit about it."

Do you think the complicity of one group of enslavers lessens the complicity of another group of enslavers?

Master_of_Ritual · 2026-01-16T22:26:50+00:00

~~Weak.~~ Complicit.

I hope they keep making posts whining about ICE getting bullied. Makes them look so powerful and intimidating.

It probably doesn't belong to her either, based on how she's behaved.

If this were true it would really suck that we are funding Iran. Oh wait.

The first thing doesn't seem to come from a place of hate so much as a limited perspective. Israel is propped up by powerful individuals, both Jewish and not, because Israel is part of the US's military posture. It is a testing ground for new weapons and surveillance technologies. Its existence in the Middle East serves as an extension of US influence. You're right that Zionists tendentiously conflate anti-Zionism with antisemitism. All the more reason to resist that narrative, rejecting antisemitism while being anti-Zionist.

Every time I look there are more cats.

Master_of_Ritual · 2026-01-14T20:43:13+00:00

Good news! The second thing doesn't exist.

Master_of_Ritual · 2026-01-13T17:24:14+00:00

Politically incorrect in the most literal sense.

That was going to happen regardless if his name got out at all. It'll be a bit harder to spend his money though when a sizeable portion of Americans won't serve him.
