very cringe of trump's guys to be saying "our epic chad warfighters have been unshackled to unleash maximum death and killstreak carnage" etc but if they're asked if this is a war they're all umm, wait, no, this is not a war, pls don't put in the paper that this is a war

People don't want to accept this because it isn't true. The <primary reason> we have Trump today is because 52 & 43 GOP Senators failed to fulfill their oaths of office in two impeachment trials. It should have never gotten to the point that it was Joe Biden's responsibility, or Merrick Garland's.

“‘They took our jobs’ is a self-sustaining delusion that it’s embarrassing left leaders are still falling for. It’s even more galling when the charge is made by people who are actively and explicitly against raising wages for those at the bottom.”

Srsly this is a good read, you should read it

I remember the phrase "they can't be allowed to melt back into society" re: the de-Baathification of Iraq after the war there. Like everything about that experience, the attempt was cynical, stupid, and botched. But there really should be a plan about what we do with guys like these in the future.

I don’t think America will recover without things like the trial and resulting sentence that needs to happen to Pete Hegseth is fully televised. Everyone needs to see that.

What if the connection between reactionary MAGA politics and the sexual abuse of children is deeper than we want to admit?

The name for this idea is pedocon theory.
