๐Ÿ‡ซ๐Ÿ‡ฎโ˜ข๏ธ Finlandโ€™s government plans to remove a legal ban on nuclear weapons on its territory, allowing them to be deployed during wartime.

The amendment, justified as strengthening NATO deterrence against Russia, still needs parliamentary approval.

Yes, sorry should have named it. A child died of it last year from an infection she contracted when she was too young to be vaccinated.

I don't think it's extreme to say anti-vaxxers killed her

The fascism is killing us, some faster than others, but nearly all of us either way.

This personalist, transactional method of governance is an obscene parody of actual justice.

"Racism is not dependent on Capitalism" should be etched in stone or more directly, etched in the blood of our ancestors.

Racism is how white folks can abuse Capitalism, and note, I don't think Capitalism is evil. I think evil people(racists) are good at abusing it.

AI Doesnโ€™t Reduce Workโ€”It Intensifies It One of the promises of AI is that it can reduce workloads so employees can focus more on higher-value and more engaging tasks. But according to new research, AI tools donโ€™t reduce work, they consisten...

Interesting interview study about AI in the labor process. Best possible atmosphere (well-paid, autonomous) still results in more work, not less, because AI helps you multitask, work during nonwork time, extend your capability into other people's turf (experts then need to clean up vibejobs)

Iโ€™m with Rep Maggie Goodlander (D-NH) we need answers and we need answers now. Trump and the Pentagon are reportedly planning on sending 23,000 troops to all 50 states. Elbridge Colby wonโ€™t answer basic questions about this plan. Unacceptable, we need to stay on this story.๐Ÿ‘€

The Oysterman Senate Candidate Has Some Serious Accusations About What the Democratic Establishment Tried to Do to Him In an interview with Death, Sex & Money, Platner opened up about his life storyโ€”and what he says were threats ahead of jumping into Maineโ€™s Senate race.

Can't imagine why a major political party would frown on a Nazi adjacent neophyte running for senate in their party's name.

In the first two months of 2026, news outlets have published a total of 1146 articles where trans was the main focus of the article.

The Daily Mail was top with a total of 136, and the Telegraph had 113. February showed a ramp-up in content from the 'far-right' media outlets.

It Wasn't Fascism All Along Conservatism was a distinct ideology but it is dead and it is not coming back.

Important and correct by @polphilpod.bsky.social Toby Buckle at @liberalcurrents.com Liberal Currents.

The "all conservatism was always already Trumpist and fascist" line is ultimately a way to normalize Trump, and should be resisted.
