  • Apple Banned an App That Simply Archived Videos of ICE Abuses

  • So if we ever take back this country, we've gotta destroy Palantir, Apple, Google, Meta, Disney, Microsoft, Amazon, CVS (working to compile a medical database on all USAmericans)... and every company that backed Trump's Nazi campaign. Start making a list now. The corporations alone will be a life's worth of work.

  • Gavin Newsom vetoes California gender education bill, hasn't signed other trans protections

    Jump

  • My fear is that, in the event that we get a fair 2028 election, Gavin Newsom will be pioneered as the golden child, as Joe Biden was in 2020 -- drowning out the actual Leftist voices. Then those progressives are pressured to drop out because this election is sooo important. Cue a Newsom presidency where we get 4 years of macro-economic recovery while the common folk suffer, and then the cycle repeats.

  • I agree with you. He's 100% rallying up a presidential bid, and what worries me most is I see other liberals idolizing him, reposting his tweets at Trump, praising him as able to destroy Trump... Who knows if we'll even have an election, but Newsom's sure poising himself to waltz right in.

    People need to stop posting Newsom tweets, and instead post content like this that frames Newsom as the corporate shill he is. Newsom is crushing homeless encampments, Newsom created the "CARE" courts that stripped autonomy from the mentally ill, Newsom is attacking transgender youth; and Newsom is going to continue doing all of this, harder, to poise himself as a "middle ground" between rational people and fascists -- instead of upholding his responsibility to protect California residents.

  • How do you kick the Reddit habit?

    Jump

  • They way I've broken off every website I no longer want to support is to delete my account (if there is one), then wipe it from my browser -- right click on a page from the site in my history, and select "Forget about this site...". Then remove any bookmarks, if I have them. It feels like burning a literal bridge. I no longer see the icon or page titles in my history, and no longer have a one-click entry back into that place.

    ooh he means neoliberal corrupt corporate sellout. Got it.

  • I recall that happening, but I would note that the division in the Republican Party was between MAGA and the "Tea Party" fiscal conservatives, the latter of which have all been branded "Republican In Name Only" and cast out. This division was also why the MAGA plan to refuse to certify the Electoral Vote on Jan 6th, 2021 failed. I'm not talking about the insurrection -- there was a genuine argument being made to try to overturn the electoral votes of several key states that voted for Biden, with passionate arguments made for and against completely rigging the election in Trump's favor.

    That speaker debacle was during Biden's term, after the ousting of Kevin McCarthy specifically because Kevin McCarthy was one of those fiscal conservatives. The Republicans did eventually elect Mike Johnson, and I don't see him getting kicked out any time soon.

    We can not cling to this vision that the Republican Party will collapse in on itself. It's a nice thought, but us waiting around is exactly what our rulers want. There are US Military soldiers and secret police agents on our streets right now -- Today -- trafficking people right now. Every day that we continue to play this routine, participating in the corporations and institutions that engineered and empowered this crisis, the USA and the corporations and the Christian Nationalists all get what they want.

    A General Strike could put some strain between the corporations and the politicians, but that's a movement that each of us must partake in. Right now, big business including Silicon Valley, as well as the Christian Nationalists, are quite content with the status-quo.

  • Ukraine's victory was enabled in large part by the financial support of the United States, which for most of the war, was run by the Democrats. As much as I'd like it, a "gangbang" of the USA is also impractical, given that the USA has many nuclear weapons, both in the country, and abroad. The USA also has military bases across the world.

  • I really doubt Congress is going to start forming factions. Republicans are all in it for the grift, except for a handful of looneys that really believe what they say (and, to their credit, are working on the Epstein files). Most Republican Congressmen do not care about their representees, definitely not enough to stick their own necks out. Two Republicans dissented on the "Big Beautiful Bill" purely based on spending concerns, which is the entire Tea Party Republican viewpoint. Two.

    Your scenario also assumes that support of Congress is needed. The White House already has their Gestapo, ICE, as well as the actual US Military. They've broken Supreme Court orders, some of them unanimous 9-0 decisions.

    I do believe the White House will continue to play along with Congress for as long as Congress obeys, them -- just to preserve the veil of normalcy. Should Congress actually attempt to impede the regime, they'll be ignored, or if deemed preferable, taken out.

    We've seen the military attack citizens, seen ICE arrest members of Congress, and we've seen MAGA hold state legislators hostage. The same country that tormented innocent civilians in nations like Iraq, has turned its guns on its own. To assume that any legal action can stop the regime is to utterly ignore reality. There was nothing legal about George W. Bush's invasion of Iraq or Afghanistan. The US Military does not follow the law, it follows orders. The Constitution has been shredded in every sense but literal. The only way one can believe we have any protection is to presume that "it would never happen here"... in the face of "it" happening here.

  • I totally agree with all of this about Trump's voters, and at this point I'm 100% sure that if you beamed us back into the 2024 Election, Kamala Harris would win by a landslide.

    BUT I think the White House itself is rather unified. Sure, the Republicans may never have the support of the majority of the USA, but they don't need to win another election. All the Republicans need is control of the military, which they can stuff full of young, hateful men who have been groomed into rage and thoughtlessly following orders... which is already underway.

    JD Vance, Stephen Miller, Kristi Noem, Kash Patel, Peter Thiel -- they're all united in their Christo-fascist beliefs. Hell, if Trump had mental capacity to do more than sign the documents placed in front of him, he would probably be the biggest wrench with their plans. In his first term, Donald Trump openly countered Mike Pence's statements on key Republican issues like gun rights. In this administration, Elon Musk was the most "out there" from the rest in being a libertarian 4chan incel manchild, but he's now entirely out of the scene.

    The MAGA voter base may never be as supportive of the regime as they were in 2024, but that's not going to matter unless that fractured voting base pulls off an effective insurrection.

  • The USA and one of China/Russia alone could destroy the world. The USA already ravaged Latin and South America, and the Middle East; and the combined military-industry power of either pair would easily be able to occupy most other nations simultaneously. Britain, Hungary, Israel and Germany are just along for the ride. Those four are as meaningless in the international scene as every other nation that may stand against the Fascists. USA/China/Russia are the three powerhouses.

    This is Russia and China's cold war, won. They convinced the United States to join them in international terrorism, and no one ever came close to the power of that trifecta. The United Nations has no army. The European Union's Defense Forces is the closest thing the free world has to a resistance. I'm typing this but only partially registering how fucked we are. The USA, for all it's horrible acts, had the "defender of democracy" title for a reason -- because the Free World depended on the perception that the USA would go to war to stop China and Russia attempting world domination. As faith in the USA drops, and these fascist alliances grow, I see no reason to believe there's ever going to be a comeback. If anything, I foresee more nations embracing the USA-China-Russia team to preserve some of their existence -- not that it's excusable.

    We had the internet. We had free travel. We were making strides in medicine and technology. And How did we lose? Because corporations run the USA, and the USA ran the Free World. Corpos would kill 7 billion people if they had reason to believe the reward of profit outweighed the risk of financial hardship. Fascism is the natural evolution of a corporate state.

    USAmerica wanted a President that ran the country like a business; and we got what we asked for. Promises made; Promises kept.
