What is Roger Waters doing? Honestly, it was an incredible album, and always will be. Why remake, and worse, why without the others? Do you want people to say "wow you are much better than the others". I honestly don't get it. #pinkfloyd #darksideofthemoon

@arpcomics Yea it's only become more obvious to those of us paying attention in the last few years. It's REALLY obvious now as they barely hide it anymore. FOX dropped the act years ago. But the rest of the media still pretending. A few pundits seem to still get things out and do the self criticism thing for the media, but it falls on deaf ears.

Fact:

People in western democracies who spread Russian narratives and are pro putin and work to further their agenda are "Russian assets"

I'm still beyond salty about the ban on AP African American history. I don't know why it isn't registering just how far out of line this is.

This is the tamest and most conventional kind of class. It's not like it's IDK a course of "Planned Shrinkage" or "US covert operations in South America" this is just... normal and I THOUGHT well established history.

This is why I never liked studying history. I just don't get the borders of the subject. It's a big mess.

Stop talking about accountability if you have NO INTENTION of holding anyone accountable.

OMG.

1. Google has some bad summarization telling people that throwing batteries into the ocean is good.
2. News articles were written about this.
3. Bing's "AI" interprets these articles as advice to ... throw batteries in the ocean!

🤦

Me: I don't care.

GF: You didn't hea..

Me: I really don't care.

GF: You didn't read about it anywhere???

Me: Did he save someone's life?

GF: No?

Me: Did he break up a child rape club?

GF: No.

ME: Did he cure cancer?

GF: No!

Me: Was it some sports thingy?

GF: Yes!

Me: Then I definitely don't care.

The typical education experience for a Black boy in the United States, is to have almost all white teachers, mostly women, more than half of whom vote for the most racist candidate on any ballot, and no Black teachers. The teachers have low expectations of you, punish you more than your classmates, and threaten to call the cop who works in the hallway on you at any moment.

I don't know how to explain more clearly, that this is never going to work.

Yesterday’s Big Tech Twitter hearings were a bust for the GOP, but that didn’t stop them from acting like dangerous jackasses. Nor did it stop Democrats from making some important points and introducing into the record the best thing ever. My piece is out and walks us through the sound and the fury. statuskuo.substack.com/p/the-t

So the media now interviews Republicans without challenging them on their social security positions. They just let them speak unchallenged. Fucking useless media pundits. They HELP the fascists. Not call them out.

@scotsoma we've made it too dangerous for kids to play in the streets, too dangerous for people to cycle, apparently now also too dangerous for pedestrians to not be dressed in high viz at all times? Kids, pedestrians, and cyclists are not causing the problem here.

Ron DeSantis is a person who exercises authoritarian control over society and seeks to impose his ideology and will upon the people they rule. Fascism is a political ideology that is characterized by extreme nationalism, militarism, and a focus on national unity, strength, and order, often at the expense of individual freedoms and rights.

In a fascist regime, the leader typically holds all power and authority, and there is little to no room for dissent or opposition. The government is often centralized and controls many aspects of citizens' lives, including the economy, media, and education. Propaganda and manipulation of information are also common in fascist regimes, as the leader and the ruling party seek to control the narrative and maintain his grip on power.

Fascism is widely considered to be a harmful and dangerous political ideology and has been responsible for numerous human rights abuses, wars, and acts of genocide throughout history.
