  • It's not because he took a job, it's because he's throwing the weight of his celebrity behind a woman who encourages violence against some of the most marginalized people in our society.

    People are questioning his ethics, not his career choices.

  • "Chaos and confusion" is a cowardly way to avoid saying that tyrants are destroying the rule of law and finishing off what's left of liberty.

    The constitution has already failed to safeguard american freedom, it's time to oust trump, jail his criminal accomplices and hold a legitimate election free from russian influence.

  • Teen Kills Parents Under Influence of Online Nazis is the correct headline. "I'm gonna kill my parents so I have the money to kill the president" is not an assassination plot, it's just a delusion.

    material on the teen's phone related to "The Order of Nine Angles," which is "a network of individuals holding new-Nazi racially motivated extremist views,"

    calls for the assassination of Trump and the start of a revolution to "save the white race," according to federal court documents.

    The alleged writings shows images of Adolf Hitler with the following text: "HAIL HITLER HAIL THE WHITE RACE HAIL VICTORY,"

  • The current russian regime here is daily inflicting violence on americans. The fact that violence against elites is still taboo when killing the poors is a-ok - that's hardly a guard-rail worth preserving.

  • It's not a good idea or a mistake it's just a thing that's going to happen so prepare as best you can and enjoy, right?

  • There's no useful purpose reporting these delusional proclamations. Boosting the narratives of power-addled nazis is detrimental to society.

  • Yeah but the US put 125% export taxes on Chinese goods, not US goods. Two opposite typos in the same clause is unlikely.

    This is exactly the kind of mistake AI makes - each clause makes sense on its own, but the parts don't add up to a whole that makes sense, and the facts are just wrong.

  • University of the West of England’s unconventional computing laboratory

    The "unconventional computing laboratory" was definitely founded in partnership with Miskatonic U.

  • start thinking about a general strike

    How many months of food and rent money do you have saved up?

    A general strike isn't only a massive challenge of will and solidarity - it's also picking a resource fight with capital itself. All the determination in the world crumbles in the face of hunger and deprivation. A general strike requires months or years of planning and hoarding.

  • Thousands of Oregonians on Saturday joined nationwide protests

    There were easily 10k+ at the waterfront in downtown Portland, combined with the single digit thousands at other spots in the greater metro and the numbers from other spots around the state, it's much more accurate to say ten of thousands.

  • I saw a clip of this moron for the first time a week or two ago.

    The entire segment was him saying that genocide against native peoples was justified because they too had violence present in their societies. Of course, the overwhelming majority of complex life on earth include violence in their behavior repetoire.

    So per this dipshit, you're morally justified in wiping out complex life.

  • There are stages to escalate through and multiple channels to apply pressure through at the same time.

    Large-scale peaceful demonstrations are an important first stage, and are still required as more intense channels are opened up.

    It's a matter of "Yes, that and more" not "No, something else"

  • willing to escalate, and BLM was not that.

    I live in Portland OR so I know that's not true.

  • A more effective version of BLM would've called a general strike.

    You can't just call a general strike like it's an I Win power in a video game.

    How is BLM going to feed and pay rent for millions of strikers in this general strike? A general strike is a massive, resource intensive feat of logistics with many possible fail points that takes a long time planning to have any hope of success.

    Especially since we've not had a general strike in over a generation, there's a good chance it would fail and sour the prospects of doing a general strike in the future.

    Also, BLM was a diffuse multi-regional movement with local goals and concrete demands. Defund police departments and end qualified immunity were consistent national goals.

  • Yeah it's laughable to suggest that russia has a plan that benefits the US in any way. Help us destroy the country and you can loot the ruins is the plan.

  • My Italian friend assures me it's coffee and a cigarette.

  • a broader shift in military strategy away from Europe and counterterrorism

    Putin is pulling US troops out of Europe. This will allow the US military to focus on it's one consistent strength: making the world hate the US.

  • He paid people to vote, that's just very clearly what he did.

  • It's already illegal. Unless the rich do it, of course.

  • Almost as ironic as blithely accusing a large collection of disparate communities of having a culture of hate, negativity and rudeness.
