One of the most important issues of our time is that the future of humanity is presently being authored by people who have nothing but total contempt for humanity and seek the erasure of everything that gives being a human meaning. It’s not just annoying. It doesn’t just suck. It’s existential.

Like the hypocrisy and the open corruption, the naked, brazen lying is itself aspiring authoritarianism. They aren't lying to cover anything up. They're saying, "We know we're lying. You know we're lying. And we know you know we're lying. And there's nothing you can do about it."

One of my zines alerts just turned up a zine contest at a public library. Y'all zine contests are missing the point of zines and not okay. I really wish people could embrace zines without changing the culture. Here's a lovely zine definition from Nina Echozina. Note "zines are non-competitive."

You actually can fight it. That is absolutely something you can do.

There is no longer any excuse for Democratic politicians not to support abolishing ICE. It should be a litmus test.

Exactly — and as we both well know, this has been precisely Bannon’s playbook from Day 1. Trump’s volatility is both the potential savior here (his politics are hollow) and the most frightening factor — between Bannon and Miller, actually intelligent and evil, playing puppeteer any & every chance

BREAKING NYT: Federal agents around the country were told in recent days that the FBI would no longer investigate confrontations with immigration agents — cases that sometimes yield evidence that could be used to prosecute DHS agents implicated in violent encounters.

Smarter Saturday: Giving a speech where you call certain people not "normal" is a way of dehumanizing them. Things that are not human can be dismissed, discriminated against, or harmed. The better response to this is to affirm the normalcy of the other, not to insult the speaker in kind.
