I'm sorry but if you actually watched the Cape Fear show you'd know the theme was "oh, okay. so Martin Scorcese is senile now. huh."

I can’t believe I just finished the Cape Fear mini-series—which was genuinely some of the dumbest TV in my life—and someone actually wrote an article about it like it says something profound about society. www.harpersbazaar.com/culture/film...

Darryl Cooper, a Holocaust revisionist, appeared again on Tucker Carlson's show with a strange claim: that after the Revolution, Bolsheviks erected a statue of Judas Iscariot as part of their campaign of religious persecution. He claims they did so in Moscow. A thread.
NEW: Meta has run dozens of paid ads that include explicit, AI-generated child sexual abuse material in recent months. Some as recently as this week. "These are ads that were reviewed, approved, and allowed to run by Meta, never encountering interference while the company collected the ad dollars."

SCHIFF: You told my staff you stood by your article in white nationalist website VDARE where you wrote, 'Muslim immigrants & their kids seem prone to terrorism' C: I wrote that article in support of Trump's travel ban S: Do you stand by it? C: I stand by that article S: That's all I need to know
This feels like the very predictable outcome of Tucker Carlson's anti-Trump pivot: he's doing it to run in 2028.
Transportation secretary Sean Duffy benefited from millions in corporate donations to make a show about road trips. But two months after Duffy said the show would premiere, it doesn't appear to exist at all. My latest False Flag @thebulwark.com: www.thebulwark.com/p/what-the-h...
What the Hell Happened to Sean Duffy’s Road-Trip TV Show?
Three months after it was announced, the secretary of transportation’s summer show—funded by companies he regulates—hasn’t aired a single episode.

In all honesty, sorry, the US-centric resistance lib vibe on here would help to change. Bluesky is pretty useless outside of US politics too at this point. It does need to expand — and can while keeping the Hitlerites elsewhere.
Bluesky's new CEO Toni Schneider on the platform's reputation for being a liberal bubble: "Yes, we definitely want that to change. It is already changing. It certainly wasn’t designed to attract one specific group of people."

With J6ers getting jobs in the justice department, and presidential memorandum NSPM-7 targeting the “left-wing” and “anti-fascists” as terrorists, it's never been more important to support those tracking the far right.
plus, anti-trans bathroom policies harm everyone because they embolden the gender police
‘I’ve been spat on’: gender non-conforming women tell of toilet abuse after UK’s supreme court ruling
Support groups report that women and non-binary people are increasingly being challenged in toilets and changing facilities – but others call it scaremongering

when people talk about how anti-trans sports policies harm *all* girls this is exactly what they mean
An initiative on the ballot in Washington state in November would require all athletes seeking to play girl's sports from kindergarten to high school to undergo "genetic screening, a testosterone-levels test, or an examination of their reproductive anatomy" before they can play

WPPI is a neo-Nazi group larping as a think tank. You can read some info about it in an @anoncomrades.bsky.social dossier on James Kreger aka 'James Karlsson' from a while back:

The True Texas Project and Young Republicans are hosting multiple events in Texas next month with the head of a self-styled white nationalist "think tank," the White Papers Policy Institute. WPPI promotes mass deportations and "remigration." It has strong ties to major white nationalist groups.

Andrew Callahan really showed his ass with this stunt. The thing with Fuentes was the most embarrassing effort to cover a radical right internet personality of the second Trump term. Available on PTI's Patreon today. ⬇️
Next up on the premium feed for PTI listeners, @michaelehayden.bsky.social and I sat down to look at an absolute debacle of a conversation between Hunter Biden and Nick Fuentes, where Fuentes was invited to try to rehabilitate his public image as a racist antisemite www.patreon.com/PostingThrou...

Buy and consume Strange People on the Hill! I'm sitting down to record the audiobook later this month. And if you read it, leave reviews on Amazon/Goodreads etc. thank you for your heroism www.amazon.com/Strange-Peop... www.goodreads.com/book/show/23...
I spoke to @shaneburley.bsky.social about my book Strange People on the Hill for truthout and we got into an important question -- what happened to the hate groups? When the government is a hate group with fascist ambitions, you don't need them as much. My answer: truthout.org/articles/whe...
Andrew Callaghan, and to a lesser extent Hunter Biden who actually argued with him to some extent, spent a lot of time letting Nick Fuentes say his views have "evolved" without much pushback — including on his participating in Jan. 6. Here's a clip of Fuentes from his show last night.
