The "centrist" think tank Third Way is looking to pay someone between $140,000 and $150,000 to spend their days trying to dig up dirt on DSA members. They're trying to sell this gig as "anti-extremism" work, which I find completely disgusting.

I think even after the bubble bursts, we can say soberly: 1. LLMs aren't going away 2. The productivity gains will turn out to be comparable to the fax machine 3. The internet will still be ruined forever 4. Their data centers will continue to do compounding damage to the environment

Muslim leftists winning elections has broken the brains of many centrists and liberals who had managed to mostly hide their Islamophobia for years

One day I hope fascist artists and writers like Ezra Pound have their works truly forgotten, their only legacy being virulent hate and stupidity. She was one of many people upholding an ardent fascist monster but also arguably the most important for Pounds legacy. www.nytimes.com/2026/08/03/b...

Mary de Rachewiltz, Ezra Pound’s Daughter and Defender, Dies at 101

Sent away as a baby, she remained loyal to her famous father, translating his poetry while fighting to distinguish his literary legacy from his fascist politics.

James Talarico on Texas officially banning THC: “Texans aren’t going to stop smoking weed and eating edibles because politicians in Austin say so. We are now telling full-grown adults how to live their lives. This is the nanny state at its worst; this is big government at its worst."

The highway now has a space for lying down. Should you?

This is why I don't support "Freedom of the press". This headline alone should be a multi-billion dollar class action journalistic malpractice suit that puts CBS out of business.

The Amerikkkan KKKommuni$$t “Party” is a CIA plant. Curious their website used to be registered to a random guy in Fairfax County.

That's not how it works. Those votes were Naders, not Gores. This idea that Dems are entitled to votes has never worked and isn't going to start. The DSA candidates you hate would probably agree with you about the importance of ranked-choice in all elections, though!

Does anyone else not like conversing with people becauase you know that you're going to sound like a conspiracy nut by stating demonstrably true things about how society is moving?

The left has a serious misogyny problem. It is not simply the dismissal of Lyndsey Fifield because of her work in Republican causes à la “h03s be lying” by Kyle Kulinski or Sam Seder, but the culture that the likes of Emma Vigeland and Ana Kasparian have created to make other women unsafe. 🧵

Anyone else remember that time InspiringPhilosophy weaponized the concept of forgiveness to make excuses for David Wood admitting to statutory? How the hell did we let that just happen with only a few people calling that out.

A few clarifications on my views for my followers. 1. I am an Orthodox Christian and that grounds my moral principles. 2. I believe that the Church does have a need for progress on matters of sex, gender, and Bible scholarship. 3. I believe that Black, Trans, Queer, and Immigrants’ Lives Matter. 🧵

While Africans were building cathedrals and composing liturgies in worship of Jesus this freak's ancestors were knee deep in gore cannibalizing each other in groves to attract the favor of wind demons

The first 'key detail' is apparently that she texted Platner 'my glutes need a massage', which Platner took as an invitation. She then clarified - twice- that's not what she meant, and not to come over. So the 'key' detail missing is that she said no, twice, before he even arrived...? jfc

Y’all heard it here from the horse’s mouth. Blame the victim if she was an adult.

AngryVeteran@angryveteran.bsky.social · last mo.

She was a grown adult and knew what she got into... She eventually stopped seeing him and he moved on... But I didn't sign up to be someone's moral counselor... Nothing he did could be charged under the UCMJ and would be considered spurious and unfounded charges. Move along...

I will never serve, but a PSA from studying the military is that this man absolutely had the right to break rank as a private if a specialist was committing “conduct unbefitting a gentleman or officer” under the UCMJ. Never take these excuses.

AngryVeteran@angryveteran.bsky.social · last mo.

Yes as a Private I am going to tell a Specialist who outranks me to treat women with respect... I guess when I signed up I am supposed to be the guys mother and father and teach him how to treat women... I mean that's the whole reason I joined up... It wasn't to do my job and defend my country....

This is exactly the problem with many men. If you don't hold your peers to account, they will continue being shitbags. Women can only do so much. We don't have the power that you do. If there are no personal consequences for their behaviour, they won't change. Boy's club/locker room shit.

Of all the songs that Joe Hill ever wrote I think "We Will Sing One Song" is one of his best. The chorus is just beautiful. Go and give it a listen if you haven't.

You supported a racist, bloodthirsty blackwater mercenary with a nazi tattoo. You characterized it as a mistake, and claimed apropos of nothing that he had changed. Take accountability for yourself for god sake. Why is this so hard for you?

Francesca Fiorentini@franifio.bsky.social · last mo.

I'm excited to be dragged into the pit of no return by the hogs on Bluesky for believing people make mistakes and can change. The SA allegations are awful. Please crucify me.

I have edited a lot of sexual-assault-accusation articles, and this one easily clears every veracity check: contemporaneous emails with her therapist, a boyfriend who knew, a woman she warned—all before Platner ran for office. Good on Politico for nailing it, and on Jenny Racicot for speaking up.

Exclusive: Woman who dated Graham Platner says he sexually assaulted her

The Maine Democrat denied the allegations and said, “Any accusation of non-consensual behavior is categorically untrue.”

If only there had been warnings that he was a violent piece of shit... I hate that it takes this for people to listen

Graham Platner is a fallen idol for the compatible left. The reek of white fragility among those who refused to listen to prior criticism until a white victim spoke out — and even STILL many of them refuse to listen to her — is the stench of bigotry.

You do not have the right to forgive another person’s rapist.
