And it’s the 14 year old girls that have to “toughen up,” or if they can’t handle problems with bullies they should just go to a different school (just like women who don’t like getting harrassed at their workplace should just go find another place to work). The bullying suicide problem, solved bigly.

ALRIGHTY THEN

Yes, indeed.

I hope he strains so hard while taking a huge dump that he pops an aneurysm in his head and dies on the toilet and is found by Melania and she begins whooping with joy and then has to pretend to sob when the Secret Service come running, but they’re like, “Girl, WE FEEL YOU!” and they all hug with joy and then put on…

My guess is that it’s like all his other childish, rage-inducing shenanigans. It’s a classic con where he keeps our attention focused on something relatively nonsensical and trivial while he slips a hand into our pocket to take our wallet. We’re about to lose something truly monumental, but we’re fixated on a fake…

Dude can’t get people to celebrate his inauguration voluntarily so is now trying to trick America into celebrating some non-sense holiday so he can retcon history for the future and claim that people always celebrated his inauguration for all time.

Someone just throw him a fake prom, convince him he actually traveled…

I will take “And we’re through the looking glass for $5,000 Alex.”

Read this, y’all! A scholar basically understands the ways in which propaganda psychologically impacts people; even those who attempt to resist it can accidentally play into it. I found it incredibly useful to think about in those terms. Another tactic that some regimes use has been via romanticized reality, i.e.…

Day 4: resist

One has to hand an immense sense of ironic humour to persons who have had to endure variations on autocracies for generations: this is as true in Latin America as it is in the Arab World, and coming soon to a country near you!

I’m exhausted from waking up everyday, reading a headline, and saying “Is this real life?”

You know, my SO told me about this, and I thought he was joking. (In my defense my SO didn’t know what specific day was being named a National Patriot Day, he helpfully suggested that it should be “the first Monday after the Super Bowl”). This is real life?? Making his own inauguration day a fucking holiday?? Even Kim…

I hope he does this every week. The more he does it, the more meaningless it becomes.

The Senate Minority Leader and the erstwhile Vice Presidential nominee voted for someone who is considering bringing back fucking torture.

God I hope the apocalypse happens soon this is goddamned exhausting.  

It will expose he’s not paying taxes, is not as rich as he says he is and is not nearly as generous as he claims to be.

April 15th is a Saturday this year. I’d love to have protests across the country demanding release.

Seems like a good idea to me.

Yes! And we didn’t go charging in in 1939 with the annexation of Poland, everybody; we waited, while actual Nazis held actual rallies in LA, while at least one shipload of Jewish refugee children was refused entrance to the US and sent back to certain death. Only after the attack on Pearl Harbor did we suddenly…

I apologize in advance for being a pedant, but Trotsky never said that. He did write something similar though:
