  • What the fuck do you mean “turns on”? He told people not to vote for Trump. Bad headline.

    Edit: read the article. Nothing all that interesting.

    To be sure, when a white supremacist says you’re right, it doesn’t mean much. But the longtime Trump supporter’s defection shows just how deep a crack Epstein has cleaved in the MAGA movement.

    Given my above statement, maybe they should leave writing to people who actually follow the far right. Or at least have consulted them.











  • On the one hand, it’s always concerning to see the rise of threats to imprison political opposition.

    On the other hand, this is a pivotal moment. This is one of those things that you could lift straight from Andor or the Martian Revolution series or any other radical fiction because it’s just cookie-cutter dropped in to so many revolutions of history that it just almost has to happen. The milquetoast electoral reformer gains some success in the light of the horrors of the authoritarian regime, the regime loses its shit and responds with an over-the-top militant reaction, which in turn triggers an actual militant defense capable of breaking the stalemate of liberalism.

    In other words, for those of us who want revolution in some form or another, who see the American empire and all empires as systems of oppression, they’re playing right into our hands with this response, assuming New Yorkers & Angelinos and other Americans are capable of effective resistance.

    One must hope. For the earth. For mankind.
