I keep wondering when I am going to see in the US what I saw in some very hot climates in the world. Construction going on at night.

flta OP , to Politics in [Opinion] Trump Goes Full Deranged, Suggests Charging People He Doesn’t Like With Treason

Donald Trump went over the edge over the weekend and began calling for his detractors to be prosecuted or even put to death.

“They are almost all dishonest and corrupt, but Comcast, with its one-side and vicious coverage by NBC NEWS, and in particular MSNBC, often and correctly referred to as MSDNC (Democrat National Committee!), should be investigated for its ‘Country Threatening Treason,’” he wrote on Truth Social Sunday night.

“I say up front, openly, and proudly, that when I WIN the Presidency of the United States … the LameStream Media will be thoroughly scrutinized for their knowingly dishonest and corrupt coverage of people, things, and events,” he said. “They are a true threat to Democracy and are, in fact, THE ENEMY OF THE PEOPLE! The Fake News Media should pay a big price for what they have done to our once great Country!”

Trump’s threat to the news media was actually his second attempt to menace detractors this past weekend alone. On Friday, he slammed Mark Milley, the outgoing chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, suggesting that perhaps he also committed treason.

“This guy turned out to be a Woke train wreck who, if the Fake News reporting is correct, was actually dealing with China to give them a heads up on the thinking of the President of the United States,” Trump said on Truth Social. “This is an act so egregious that, in times gone by, the punishment would have been DEATH!”

Donald Trump is a danger to society. If you haven’t already, join your city/county’s Democratic club/caucus and organize locally to elect Democrats up and down the ballot in 2024.

He has lost it.

Precisely how they like it. Intellectuals drive change which is anathema to the party of stagnation.

Omega_Haxors , (edited ) to Politics in Here Are All the Democrats Who Voted for the “Anti-Zionism Is Antisemitism” Bill

Conflating Zionism and Judaism is literally antisemitism, and now 95 Democrats are voting to make saying otherwise against the law.

People got mad when I called them social fascists, now here they are trying to institute modern day nazism. It’s beyond unacceptable.

Always has been. Just had enough checks to stop him the first time. Now he's got allies planning an American Night of the Long Knives for 1/20/2025.

This is an excellent article, if you don’t have the time to read there’s also a 40 minute recording!

Putting aside the content, this was a fantastically well written article. It was long but I kept reading because it told such a tale.

And, the inline sources were, generally, actual sources like statistics and research articles. I detest articles that just link to other news sources - I want the source of truth, not to play telephone. So good on the author for avoiding that trend!

The only silver lining I can find is a bit selfish, but it’s really nice that the trans population of MN is growing explosively. Can’t even leave the house in the metro without seeing other GNC folks.

Ranvier , to U.S. News in The Red State Brain Drain Isn’t Coming. It’s Happening Right Now.

Excellent article. I personally know multiple doctors who have taken significant pay cuts, uprooted everything, and moved across the country to escape red state politics just as the article reports. Doctors just want to treat patients as well as possible, not be thrown in jail for practicing good medicine.

Oh neat the torment nexus

The people that profit off killing workers like Jannikka didn’t know her name when she was making them money, and won’t care to know her name after having killed her.

This “society” is nothing more than a playground for sociopaths. Our very lives are in service to those sociopaths that don’t consider us human solely because we lack the significant net worth they hoard and gamble without any consideration beyond “what’s in it for me?”

Remember that the next time you recoil at a homeless victim of this system. That is one of us that our society beat into that position for failing to produce for our owners. Most of the peasants look at them the way our owner class looks at us.

The homeless aren’t our enemy, the government that has been corrupted to serve the owners isn’t our enemy, our neighbors aren’t our enemy. Wall Street and the global market capitalist owner class are our civilization’s and planet’s common enemy, whether we choose to actually fight them or continue to submit to and profit them like good little doggies. Everything else is a distraction, and likely a distraction of their design meant to keep us divided punching sideways and downward instead of looking up.

A-fucking-men, I couldn’t have said this any better myself. It’s always been the ultra-rich causing problems for the Common Man, not the poor or public servants. The problem then, one that may be solvable by us, is figuring out how to shake-awake the brainwashed from their IV drip of late-stage Capitalism. More people need to congregate behind global wealth management for anything to truly be changed.

Walmart is evil. They single-handedly caused the deportation of millions of jobs. Their workers are subsidized by the American taxpayer, because even if Walmart allows you to work full time, you are still in poverty.
