It’s bullshit that governments can’t do anything right.
Many governments did amazing things.
Free education for all
Public health systems
Disaster relief
Labour laws
Equal rights
Public legal defence
Roads, bridges, waterways, power grids, public hospitals, public housing
Just because you keep voting in grifters doesn’t mean government can’t work, it means you keep choosing tax breaks over everything else.

What I find so depressing about the state of journalism today is that their claims of integrity are completely undermined by the sort of utter journalistic failure the press exhibited at Mar a Lago as a lunatic rambled for more than an hour, lie after lie after lie, with little pushback.
But the New Yorker thinks Kamala Harris doesn't 'stand' for anything.
Is standing for decency, equality, rule of law and the future of democracy isn't standing for anything?

I've had it with the media saying that the "Left" refuses to address the issues that are 'concerning' the rioters.
Let me get this straight - these rioters were mobilized through the dissemination of completely false information about the knife-wielding murderer of 3 children. That he was a Muslim asylum seeker.
But the 'Left' is not the 'Left' - it's literally anyone who isn't hungry for whatever false rumour will give them cover to enjoy racist street violence.

There are also people who genuinely don't believe they would be good parents. They make a responsible choice not to bring children into the world and then leave them for someone else (or no one) to care for them.
This pathological need-to-breed MAGA ideology has no care for the future. It reflects a fundamentally selfish need to make little replicas of themselves to assuage a deep insecurity with their masculinity and their mortality.

But indeed there are many people, like my husband and I, who were fully able to have children but chose not to. It was the future that influenced our choice. Far from disdain for the future, it was specifically the presence of 9 billion people on the planet and limited resources and ecological burdening that caused us to decide against procreating.
I can't claim to have made a conscious sacrifice. But my lack of children means more for yours. 2/

2024-07-27 06:16:43

I'd like to parse out the underlying ideology of Vance's "childless cat lady" statements.
He proposes that people who do not have children have no investment in the future.
The underlying ideology of such a statement reflects a selfishness so complete it cannot see itself. And that foundational narcissism pervades the GOP and its voters.
Firstly, many people cannot have children biologically. It's not a choice for them. For them, Vance's stance is eugenicist - much like the Nazis. 1/

I'm really astonished by the persistence of patently untrue information being passed along on Mastodon.
1. Harris was never in the police force. Never. Harris was not a cop - ever. (Not that it should matter if she had been).
2. Harris graduated with a Juris Doctor in 1989, and became a public servant from her first job, serving as a prosecutor.
3. Harris fought AGAINST trying juveniles in adult court.
4. Harris vowed NEVER to seek the death penalty.

She's got 4 fucking months. She's a woman and she's Black. She's got a sense of responsibility and courage.

Harris has been a prosecutor. If she gets on stage with Trump in a debate, she'll slaughter him.
Although, if I were her, I'd turn down any invitation to debate; there's no reason on earth why she should share the stage with a convicted felon.
Basically, she's young and vital. Her opponent is a rapist, a felon and can't finish an entire sentence.
So... things are looking up.

2024-07-21 20:35:27

So... the good news:
Harris's endorsements will eat up all the media oxygen and drive Trump crazy.
The Biden/Harris war chest can be used by her.
The MAGA crowd are going to go full-on racist, and there are independents and some Republicans who, while willfully blind to the dog whistles, won't be able to swallow the out loud racism, and vote for her quietly.
Her championing of the cause of abortion rights will confront women in a way Biden couldn't.

2024-07-21 19:06:57

Biden wouldn’t have endorsed Harris if she hadn’t agreed to step up.
Make no mistake, the woman is making a fucking ENORMOUS sacrifice. No one else with real presidential aspirations would choose to run under these dreadful conditions - 4 months out, with the GOP planning another coup.
Harris must truly love her country with every fibre of her being to accept this insane challenge.
And once again, Black women save the world. #USpol #harris

While I do not love Starmer, I don't think he's stupid or evil.
And this gives me a glimmer of hope. Because 4 our of the last 5 Tory PMs were both stupid and evil.
I don't have massive amounts of hope, and I'm bound to be disappointed in many things, but I had no hope under the Tories. None at all.
I'm going to enjoy this tiny smidgeon for as long as it lasts.

@npub1psd…9sr7 Okay... you owe me 2 minutes.
I am willing to totally admit I'm just too old for that stuff.

okay....
I am really sick to the teeth of this bullshit meme that keeps getting repeated and embraced by incels that women don't sleep with broke men.
While women may use financial stability to decide whether to marry or pair up with someone long-term, I've only met two women in my entire life who took someone's wallet into account when it came to simply sleeping with a man.

While I wish the UK would just rejoin the EU outright, I don't see the EU allowing the UK to retain the Pound, and I can see the jingoists making much of joining the Euro. (Also there are acknowledged structural problems with the Euro that need to be addressed).
But a Norway style association would be brilliant. I'd settle for that for now.

It is a sign of just how universally it is acknowledged that Brexit was a disastrous mistake for the UK... that the Tories aren't mentioning it.
I do hope - post-election jitters - Labour grows a fucking spine and begins negotiations on some closer relationship with Europe. #UK #Elections

Can you imagine being married to a man who is on trial for a non-violent crime and NOT attending the trial for him?
How do republicans - who are supposedly so demanding of loyalty and obedience in their wives - manage to explain why Trump's wife never once appeared at his side in court.
Kind of like Alito's wife's flag addiction. Right?
Perhaps the reason these men are so eager to legislate what women can do with their own bodies is because they seem unable to persuade them with persuasion.

Just a note for the press:
You can stop saying ‘allegedly’ now in reference to Donald Trump.

@npub1psd…9sr7 I’m of the opinion that there is a threshold of wealth and power at which a curious form of psychosis sets in, almost inevitably

I would like to try and persuade people in the UK to make sure they are registered to vote and to get out and do so.
I suspect a significant number of you feel no desire to vote because you feel the system itself is rigged against you.
This makes you feel apathetic and disenfranchised.
The Tory government has done pretty much everything in its power to make you feel exactly this way.

I sometimes wonder if all this language assist stuff - sentence completion, word choice suggestion, etc. is going to end up rendering half the language tired clichés.
Or rather, that our languages will split into factions of those who allow computers to determine what to say for them, and those who stubbornly resist and therefore formulate rather odd sentences just to spite the algorithm.
