The insanely broad language of this Presidential Memorandum (how are we defining 'traditional views??' How are we defining 'Hostility??') basically says "I can target and black-bag anyone who disagrees with me." And it also targets perfectly legal funding networks for leftist activism like bail funds and mutual aid. And now it's being used to target and intimidate anyone recording ICE activity by declaring such activity as a "potential indicator for radical leftist terrorism."

nowhere else

Wanting you to ignore the politics of Star Wars comes from the same exact place that wants you to substitute the germ theory of disease with the 'sickness comes from failure to be a good christian and most people who claim to be sick are just faking anyway' myth.

They don't want these complexities to exist, and by talking about them, you make them exist. It's a form of magical thought. Talking about police brutality wills police brutality into existence. A disruption of the status quo is seen as a disruption of the natural order. The problem they see is that no-one has made those people shut up. That is what they want: someone to come in and make those people shut up and go away, to put things back "where they belong." [...] Their will is a hammer that they are using to beat reality itself into a shape of their choosing, a simple world where reality is exactly what it looks like through their eyes, devoid of complexity, devoid of change, where they are right and their enemies are silent. They are trying to build a flat earth.

THRIVE

On the day of Dick Cheney’s death, I’m thinking about a lot of horrible consequences of his actions, but I’m also thinking about Lauren Hough telling Dick Cheney to waterboard her “if it makes him feel better” when she repaired his cable.

Rest in Piss, Dick Cheney. I can only imagine demons are doing to you now what US soldiers did to Iraqi civilians in Abu Ghraib.

I don’t know why I keep forgetting I have this platform. Forgive me, have this 🤭
