To state what’s obvious, under the U.S. Constitution:Americans have an inalienable right to compare members of the current administration to Nazis, fascists, tyrants, dictators, etc. Don’t want to be labeled a Nazi?It’s not hard, really. Don’t talk like Nazis. Don’t govern like Nazis. Don’t ape the style of Nazis.

@Bundesligatrainer we have to be careful on this topic because antisemitism is a very real disgusting thingand yet at the same time, some dishonest agendas weaponize the word "antisemitism" against anyone who criticizes the state of Israel alone, without any genuine antisemitism remotely indicated in their criticismsthat kind of behavior seems to be most of what that wikipedia section isand this sleazy maneuver undermines the fight against real antisemitism in the world

@Elizafox Not only the military, but also the civilian surveilance state. The only seemingly viable business model for data centers is to process the ever growing stream of surveillance data (video, sound recordings, internet/banking/"smart" device usage patterns etc), and sell it to governments and law enforcement as "surveillance as a service". They keep selling the AGI fantasy, but they are processing every bit of data so Palantir can eventually have every person on Earth on the kill chain.

@anneapplebaum.wsocial.eu Quite depressing that this basic fact needs pointing out again and again. Yet, here we are.Thank you for doing the, alas, vital job of repeating the blindingly obvious as others try to obfuscate it.

@androcat Understandable. It remains a problem that so much brilliant content is stuck on Substack.

@inthehands @joXn @msbellows In 79, in our platoon, we had one guy we knew was gay, then another guy entered the unit. We sat him down, told him how things worked, stay out of the gay bar in town, go up to the next big town. And kinda stay on the down low, please.There were G+L people in the DIVARTY, everyone knew, nobody said a thing. Worked beautifully the whole time I was in.

@alterelefant @AnnieBuddy @hiphopheaven @slimhazard @renewedresistance And let's never forget that it was the biggest genocide in history we know of

@causeburn The problem with this sign is it underestimates just how bad the republicans are.Come to think of it, that's not a problem with the sign. It's a problem with the republicans.

@Remittancegirl @Dhmspector Hard agree.

@abartlet @dotsie @emilymbender ….also a marketing decesion to sell risk to consumers.

@afewbugs And you may be interested in making a country leave a powerful block of countries all working together to advance their economic and regulatory interests.Like, uh... The EU?
