What I was suggesting is that the same GOP playbook that was used to erode voting access for black voters, is also being used to erode women's access to the ballot.
Republican billionaire donors are funding an anti-democracy movement where only a select few will have a voice in democracy.
White. Male. Christian. Wealthy.

The video is pretty stellar.

This is really worrying and also terrifying how the US can just sleepwalk in to this.

@zleap @maxkennerly Here in #Minnesota, we have city government and school board elections.
Which a group of extremists are trying to use to promote racist, sexist, heterosexist, and cissexist book bans and harass & discriminate against trans & nonbinary kids.
They must not be allowed to do that.
(Said extremists are mostly running for office in the suburbs of the Twin Cities - in Saint Paul and Minneapolis they could not make it to the election.)

Bigger lies, darker plans: Trump prepares his authoritarian regime
I wonder if there is any sort of link between this and the fact the US government support the current mass killing in Gaza.
Victims of police terror = non whites (black / brown )
victims in Gaza mostly Arab (non white)
Perpetrators of both (white)

I really hope court artists are never replaced with AI, as they put their own personality in to their drawings.

@w7voa the paywall was the beginning of the end. And is for every news outlet. If you can't read the news, what's the point?
It is a real shame that school leaders and head teachers can't be charged with manslaughter when a child or young person commits suicide due to bullying at the school, esp when the school is TOLD multiple times and fails to act in an effective way.

“It’s All Because Of The Hamas Dogs!”
https://virtualjerusalem.com/watch-gazan-woman-its-all-because-of-the-hamas-dogs
"During a BBC broadcast, a woman in Gaza was filmed crying as the injured were evacuated from a site attacked by Israeli fighter jets.
The woman screamed out in hysteria: 'It’s all because of the Hamas dogs!'
The people around her immediately silenced her by placing a hand over her mouth – an attempt to protect her from the wrath of Hamas terrorists for speaking the truth in public."
While I understand the anger, the implications for this could hand the white house to the GOP and even Trump.
That prospect is rather terrifying

Very very large brains telling us that "If bombs wipe out your family, you resent the people who dropped those bombs" like this isn't a basic fact of Human Nature.
If only "revenge killings" hadn't been given the moral go-ahead by Western media....oh well...

There is one simple and fundamental truth: A system cannot be reformed or changed, only destroyed. Any attempt to change it from within will fail and it will reset itself according to its long-time design. https://web.archive.org/web/20210925162655/https://midnightfire.blogspot.com/2014/12/unmaking-tyranny.html
Anyone remember the Iraq super gun affair circa 1991 ish, where Uk companies were found to have supplied components to Saddam Husains large gun he was planning to build
