Unpopularity alone does not bring down authoritarians. This is the part where they make desperate plays to maintain their power, and those moves are either successfully resisted or not.

"A society grows great when old men plant trees in whose shade they shall never sit." So awesome to live in the opposite kind of society.

great place to post the Brady Bunch "sure, Jan" gif over and over until Crawford succumbs to Posters Madness
Well, from what I understand, democracy challenged @cbsnews.com correspondent Jan Crawford is so insane she's figuratively getting the ever living daylights knocked out of her tweet on X for being too fascist even for that platform.
When a lucid analysis of the Constitution is described by @cbsnews.com chief legal correspondent Jan Crawford as a diatribe, she might have no allegiance to democracy itself.
let’s hope that bubble is on his aorta
Not only do Dems seem headed for success in the midterms, fueled by a swell of Americans who see Trump as a crook, enriching himself while costs rise for everyone else, but the president’s inner circle is going up in flames.” www.nytimes.com/2026/10/17/o...
I think it's very telling how we're invited to think "someone's mother may be uncomfortable on a ward with a trans person" and not "a trans person may be uncomfortable on a ward with an old bigot" - who gets to have the "legitimate concerns" and who only gets to be the ones "they are had about.
In other words: “You brown people should be grateful to live in a country where the vice-president calls you weasels in public”
JD Vance calls El-Sayed "a little weasel who should shut his mouth and show a little gratitude"
Dear CNN: That was NOT a heated debate. That was Abdul calmly and masterfully dismantling a bigoted GOP talking point and so thoroughly handling a GOP implant, the guy opted to leave.
CNN giving @abdulelsayed.bsky.social’s haters the headline they want after he destroyed a bigot and showed he’s more of a patriot than they will ever be
tommy: 1) does not know who socrates is; 2) if he did tommy would dismiss socrates as a pagan foreigner whose ideas have no value to a *real* american
TFW Socratic questioning makes you admit that you believe in theocracy, not constitutional democracy
The contest for this country’s future is the MAGA Monoculture vs the American Multiculture. And this clip shows the American Multiculture winning. Abdul El Sayed is the American here. Not this Tommy character.
This is so incredibly well done by @abdulelsayed.bsky.social.
The court must really hate Brand as they’ve put him in Ryanair-style seating
TikTok “Permanently Suspends” the ‘Musk’ Film Account, Raising Suppression Fears (Exclusive)
TikTok “Permanently Suspends” the ‘Musk’ Film Account, Raising Suppression Fears (Exclusive)
TikTok has banned the entire Musk film account, citing political content that violates its policies. The move, which comes just as the Alex Gibney’s investigation into Elon Musk expands to more than 470 screens across North America, raises concerns about Big Tech suppression that the very film seeks to expose.Distributor Bleecker Street was informed Friday afternoon a “permanent suspension” was coming. The entire page disappeared from TikTok’s platform shortly after. The film company had been planning to spend ad money to boost certain posts; that will no longer happen.

It’s like a critical theory case study of *everything* in a single sentence. Power. White supremacy. Islamophobia. Who gets to have a voice. Wowwwww.
Here’s why Trump ordered Zuckerberg to shut down Instagram’s #NoKings page today.
Naming bats must be hard, because they're ALL such weird little guys. I would have named this one GINORMOUS-EARS BAT, but instead, it's called the spotted bat (Euderma maculatum) for the three white spots on their normally dark-grey fur. Just be careful what you say about them, they're LISTENING.
They’re drinking straight from the bottle in the Kremlin today. Again. #Krasnov
Good morning and happy Saturday to everyone. Well worth repeating: Our children shouldn't have to practice for the day someone tries to kill them at school. Vote like your president is trying to kill you. #NoKings 🚫👑
