Imagine a world in which the media reported the facts, explained the difference between truth and lies, gave context and did their fucking jobs.

This makes me feel better about my fellow citizens

@QueenOfEverything Ok, here's the bit about Musk having Starlink over NC *and* bragging that he had the election results 4 hours early... it came from Joe Rogan

Hey, did you listen to the computer woman right above the link you sent me? She's saying that Elon "let" voting offices go to Starlink to get their votes scanned and counted.

That's the "Big Secret"... trump would have whatever votes he needed to win fast and could promise the announcement election night.

@BillyBones @QueenOfEverything @Tarnagh no wonder they were confident although I’d ask McFate about the statistical probability. Ordinarily I’d ask him myself but seeing as he muted me when I brought up the concerns of natives at the border, I can’t. I trust that he would give you a reasonable rundown on the math, though.

Seen on several social media sites. The protests are already starting in the big cities, and there is a MASSIVE protest planned by Women's March in DC the weekend before Inauguration Day... but we really need to get out there *NOW* while we still have a constitutional right to free speech & peaceful protest. This needs to be even bigger than the protests after George Floyd was murdered. This is a five-alarm national emergency, folks! Fascists are about to murder our democracy! 🆘 🇺🇸

"I think I'll just check to see if Twitter is still a cesspi...."

The absolute worst moment was when SCOTUS - not Garland, but SCOTUS - made it clear that Trump could be president again despite having "engaged in insurrection or rebellion" because well who is supposed to enforce this? Who really knows what Truth is?

We’ve all thought this. It’s not really stunning.

“A former Kamala Harris adviser shocked a CNN panel on Sunday with a wild proposition: Joe Biden should resign the presidency and allow Kamala Harris to reign as the first woman president.”

Everything we are seeing right now happened in the early 1800s. And these choices were fueled by white supremacy, misogyny, and xenophobia. Life only got better for those who actively oppressed others.

Abolitionists, womens rights organizers, workers rights unions, disability rights orgs, and pro-immigration orgs did the work under far worse circumstances with very little global solidarity. We have better tools, connections, and resources.

The United States is a nation of con artists, suspicious to the point of paranoia of sincerity, and yet deeply gullible of the most transparent frauds. What passes for "religion" in the U.S. is, more often than not, nothing other than a long-standing grift, so deeply embedded in national consciousness that most people are unable to see it as the long con it is.

They call it "heritage."

As usual, President Biden quietly attended Mass in Delaware this evening, keeping up his record as the most consistently church-going president in modern history.

Faith isn’t a prop for him—it’s personal, something he genuinely lives by. Meanwhile, Christian conservatives just helped elect someone who would probably need a GPS to find a church.

I'll never understand it.
