The birds of a feather saying comes to life right here on Bsky
Slippery slopes toward overt 1930s textbook fascism getting steeper all the time

"When fascism comes to America ..."
From the people who brought you The Foggy Dew and Down By the Sally Garden 😏
Do you ever read articles about AI doing this, that or the other thing & wonder 'who asked for this?'. Well the police did among other interested parties. AI allows police & prosecutors to cast a wider net without all that tedious diligence.

"encrypted transmission" What you mean like an iPhone?
The US military at the decision making level is either incompetent or viciously, grotesquely malicious. Which would you choose?
Riding an e-bike puts you in a different and better city almost instantly.
Civil war is brewing right here in river city
I would like an explanation as to why Americans keep believing Republicans ~ and republicans fuck them over every time ~ every single time
We aren't here again, we just never left here

Trump is proving me right about the flaw in the whole moving out of the US thing. Where are you going to go that is safe from American over reach. Better to stay and fight.
Seeing their superstitions supplant the law must be heady stuff. If the Trump regime fails to effectively subvert the upcoming elections will the Xian nationalists be willing to revert to the 'losing side' stance? Will they instead finally break out into civil war?
Threads seems to be getting the Nazi bar treatment
Drivers are the nobility, those outside of cars are mere peons
You have clearly not read the War Powers Act, Mike. Everything you've written is totally wrong.
The War Powers Act SPECIFICALLY PROHIBITS military action unless: a/ there is a prior congressional authorization; or b/ it's a response to an attack against the U.S.
How can you not read Operation Epstein Fury in this post?
Seems like normalizing killing or kidnaping political leaders you don't like might eventually have unintended consequences for Trump.
It’s just a little war so all those school kids we killed are just a little dead. DJT on Truth Social tomorrow.
Yes but then I'm old
Fewer bloodthirsty religious zealots in the world isn't an inherently bad thing but just based on the math fewer Israeli government affiliated religious zealots would seem to be a better deal.
As I ride my bike around Baltimore I see many retired school buildings. I also see people sleeping in doorways. I have to wonder what it would cost to turn those buildings into dorms for people without options for a bed, a shower, a toilet. Not apartments just a basic barracks to keep costs low.
A long list of societal benefits vs a driver might get mad is the pedal note of American politics writ both small and large
Seems like a good time to remember that under Eisenhower the top US marginal tax rate was 92%. The 1950s, a time when by any modern Republican metric America was really great. Taxing rich people substantially makes for a good economy. We have the receipts.
You might wonder which Maryland law requires people on the sidewalk to yield right-of-way to drivers crossing the sidewalk in a driveway.🤨
When people wonder at the excess cruelty during revolutionary France's Reign of Terror after centuries of wealth & power providing impunity I can only say I'm ready to guillotine quite a few people after just a few decades of it.
The heinous crime of not being in a car
The Dems have always had FDR in their back pockets in much the same way the Republicans wish they had Lincoln but instead they want to be the party of Wall St
As I remember it a few Germans and Japanese political and military figures did go to the gallows. It was Sherman, hardly a flaming racial equalizer who came up with 40 acres and a mule.
Hanging Davis, Lee and the secessionist leadership would have been a good first step. Dispossessing the slave owner aristocracy and redistributing the land to the former slaves would have under cut the resources that went into the resurgence of the southern conservatives in the 1870-80s.
