If you’re still a liberal in 2026, you’re a fascist. A principled person with morals doesn’t see the people that they vote for fund & enable genocide and think “hmmm these guys ought to protect me from fascism!”
It’s literally just the liberal side of fascism. You are Nazis too

carl sagan is like pynchon in the sense that you read his work and are absolutely floored that intellectuals of that time knew the score — that the political critiques that seem so revelatory now were also obvious then, but got buried beneath layers of bullshit, as they always do

Let’s all remember the sage wisdom of Omar El-Akkad- “One day, when it's safe, when there's no personal downside to calling a thing what it is, when it's too late to hold anyone accountable, everyone will have always been against this.”
Kamala Harris says her and Biden’s administration should have acted “sooner and more forcefully” regarding Israel’s attack on Gaza — and that the Trump administration “offers Netanyahu a blank check”:
“America has at times fallen short on [moral obligation to human rights and international law]. Most recently, the failure to use our leverage to curtail the Israeli government's horrific conduct in the war in Gaza, both under the current administration, which offers Netanyahu a blank check, and our administration before, where we should have acted sooner and more forcefully.”

Reduction of working hours is an excellent socialist policy because it directly challenges the notion that capitalist development = progress. Why isn't the advancement of tech reducing the amount of labour we have to do? It's a question that capitalist media will never ask.

All this performative political posturing just for the overall message to be “Go vote!” is so funny.

Capitalism took centuries to emerge from feudalism. Socialism has struggled to emerge from capitalism for about 180 years. The USSR's dissolution didn't end that struggle. No mode of production lasts forever. History isn't over, and capitalism isn't humanity's final destination.

a big problem re: mamdani is folks seem to have a hard time contending with how elaborate and fake the political theater truly is, mainly because they don't understand that this is about defusing/funneling what would be potent revolutionary energy back into electoral politics.

RIGHT NOW: Zohran Mamdani stands on the Israeli side of an October 7 vigil while Palestinian organizers and supporters of Palestinian liberation directly protest him.
Another politician at the vigil is Brad Lander, who increased NYC pension holdings in Elbit Systems, Israel’s largest weapons manufacturer, as their weapons were used to annihilate Palestinians at the height of the Gaza genocide.
Meanwhile, students across NYC are walking out of classrooms demanding an end to the city’s complicity in Israel’s genocide of Palestinians.
Mamdani campaigned on solidarity with Palestine. Now the movement is confronting him over the gap between that solidarity and his political decisions. This is not a hypothetical contradiction or a disagreement over rhetoric. It is a confrontation over where political power is being exercised, whose demands are being accommodated, and whose are being dismissed.
Solidarity is measured by what you do with power, not what you say to obtain it.

I haven't heard a single reasonable take on how the Icon's didn't have a serious advantage...
Everything feels like people trying to justify why it was OK in their eyes, & not logically how it affected the structure of the game.
All they have to say is they played the game that was placed in front of them & didn't have a say in what they were or weren't given. I understand why people would see it that way, but that's energy that should go toward production & not the players.
I could respect a response like that, but trying to justify it is not a good faith argument & it makes me not trust their opinions at all. #BB28
Tiffany spoke up in defense of the icons on Big Brother 28, and talked about why she thinks they didn’t have an unfair advantage
“My take on it is, [the advantages in the beginning] evened the playing field.”

the survivors rewriting history like they never took anything personally. i’m sorry?? barrett’s hoh was some of the worst sportsmanship i’ve ever seen on bb — not celebrating barrett’s bday, devens accosting melody & barrett in the kitchen. absolute worst sports #bb28
