And I still have doubt most people even grasp what’s happening and are annoyed by any sort of progress Look how many turned fascist over fucking pronouns or a fucking beer or a bad Snow White movie How the hell are we surviving climate crisis if people can’t even tell what’s ai slop or not

I know people will unfollow me for being a doomer all the time Just ask yourself this though… if all of this is stopped, the damage is done. All the people who were brutalized may never get justice, many will be dead, all what’s broken won’t be fixed, the mistrust among everyone won’t ever wear off

I honestly wonder if these fascists have won We all know the average American enjoys what’s going on and only are crying about expenses

We have no future. This is our end

We're about to see the far right takeover in Spain and the rest of Europe over the next two years. Next year it's France. Germany is on borrowed time. Brazil is already on the brink. Most of Europe and all of latin America will be under the control of the far right. www.nytimes.com/live/2026/10...

This is a signal of what pro-democracy folks here are going to be up against should we prevail in the next two elections. The number one goal here has to be coming and staying together to fight for our democracy and deliver for the people.

It's only the first round but I can't believe Brazil did everything right going after Jair Bolsanaro over his attempted coup only to be on the verge of electing his corrupt dipshit son.

If Democrats think winning back congress this year and the presidency in 2028 is enough, they are sorely mistaken. We'll be right back where we're at in 2032 with an even more fascist and white supremacist Republican party. It's not enough to win power.

the brazil thing is so depressing because they did the right thing, man they did what we couldn’t, they actually prosecuted their coup and threw bolsonaro’s ass in jail and generally showed the united states what a functional state looks like and now they are gonna elect his dipshit son? really?

You should be asking why Rockstar gets to do this and doesn't run into any issues with payment processors, while the rest of anyone drawing or writing "explicit content" on any platform have so much trouble getting paid

GTA 6 has received a rating of PEGI 18, revealing mentions of "decapitation," the ability for players to snort cocaine at any time, "scenes of sexual fetishes," and much more.

“Whistleblower who flagged Lutnick’s links to Epstein dies… ex British banker who spent more than 35 years working in financial markets has died by suicide…Simon Andriesz was previously a managing director at Wall St firm where Lutnick was CEO…” www.thebanker.com/content/0228...

That's why ALL COPS ARE BASTARDS. Where are the Cops refusing these orders? Where are the ones pushing back and fighting? They're all driven out by the corrupt organizations!! The rotten apples defend each other!

Before the Charlottesville riot where Nazis murdered citizens there was a Klan rally to defend Confederate statues. Guess who the cops were defending. Yup! The Ku Klux fucking Klan.

Happening now in the Chicago suburb of Bridgeview: A few hundred people are out protesting right-wing provocateur Jake Lang and his attempted "crusader march" on the local Palestine Fest going on nearby. Police in riot gear just formed a line, with Lang's group behind them.

FA being told by advertisers that the most mundane of art is just too risqué to work with should be a good indicator why trying making your fandom squeaky clean to appease people, who will never be happy, is a shitty idea

Also, let's not have any illusions about what they hoped to achieve with these demands. They did not actually want to ban depictions of hugging. They correctly identified furry as a queer community, so they made a demand they know is impossible to comply with.

In a shocking turn of events nobody saw coming, the straight white man who's life has never been threatened by those in power suggests befriending neonazis. More at 11.

The best cure for ideological bias is find someone on the other side and go to lunch with them.⁣ ⁣ Sometimes we disagree about facts. Sometimes we disagree about values. Figuring out which is which is fun part. https://newsletter.platypuseconomics.com/p/my-libertarian-friends-were-right

I just want to live in a stable country where everyone is safe and their rights are protected and we all have housing and food and healthcare. I’m really sick and tired of this shit.

really kinda sucks that, across the globe, we don’t have majorities of voters who think far right authoritarianism is bad If I had to sum it up it seems like 40% of voters are anti authoritarian 40% of voters are pro authoritarian 20% of voters just want cheap burgers

Have you noticed, lately, or noticed people around you commenting, that there just seems to be no money anymore. There's no money for companies to make the tv shows you like, the video games you like, the local diner you like shut down, no one you know can find a job. Think about that in context of

AI is now the biggest investment in all of US history as a percentage of GDP. Datacenter construction is up, all other construction is down. "AI Is Squeezing Out the Rest of the Stock Market," reported WSJ 2 days ago. We basically bet the whole economy on the most optimistic visions panning out.

bleak future ahead for brazil. something must be done with the growing global fascistic movement if we want any future worth anything

this is not a problem you can fix with calm, reasoned debate. you can't even fix it by improving people's lives with policy. there is no clear, proven, non-violent solution to this issue. finding one is the most significant problem of our age.

Like we don’t have political disagreements, we have disagreements on the nature of reality 

Analyzing The Voters is mostly a fool's errand, but I do think we have at least two equally significant problems: a third of us are irredeemable assholes and another third are credulous boobs. It brings me no pleasure to report this

Media, money (behind media) and active corruption/vote buying. This is how Keiko (Fugimori’s daughter) was just elected in Peru after consolidating power through her party & spreading the rot in congress. The corruption in politics is spreading like a virus worldwide, aided by billionaires & greed.

I really don't get it. Trump polls at like single digits across the world but then every country is like, but our right wing populist is different!

Am I capable? No

People saying the ball is gonna drop and people will get mad but when the hell will it? Unfortunately it seems most don’t give a fuck. white people don’t care about everything else going on and protect their own. Even if it means defending the indefensible and hurting their own families

Josh The Kataroo 🔞@joshthekataroo.bsky.social · 5d ago

Is it wrong for me to have absolutely ZERO faith in the population and expect the rest of our lives to be living in fear because of simply being different and feeling unhappy with the system? So many “normal“ people, mainly white men, are happy hurting others and wanting the innocent to suffer.

It’s really fucked up we told generations of kids they had to take out personal loans in order to improve their lives as we cut funding to schools and when that turned out to be bullshit the general consensus has been “fuck those kids”

You can pay for this with a credit card, but don't dare think of commissioning art of consenting adults having fun sexually, credit card companies (and PayPal) will de-bank you. Our systems are so screwed up. :/
