“The US plane manufacturer Boeing has begun flying 737 Max jets that were refused by Chinese airline customers back to the United States, as the trade war between the world’s two biggest economies escalates.”

Timothy Snyder on the moment the Trump regime has created. He's following historical examples that led to mass murder. #authoritarianism #fascism #Nazis #history


"What Donald Trump did on Friday should make the hair on the back of your neck stand on end. Trump literally fabricated evidence in an effort to keep Abrego Garcia in a prison in El Salvador. You must understand that Trump would do that very thing to imprison anyone he wants to 'disappear' --including you or your family."

~ Dean Obeidallah

We in the USA are living under full-on #fascism that the #MAGAcult and #corporatemedia are ignoring. Wait till it affects them, and it’s way too late to stop it.


Why isn't the world going insane at Republican politicians visiting concentration camps and posing in front of people who will likely be dead within the decade.

This wasn't even normal in 1942. It's not even normal in North Korea - Fascist regimes usually keep their death camps a secret.

I skenet av J K Rowlings fria fall in i någon slags galenskap med basen i renodlat transhat har Harry Potter-böckerna nu (av vissa, åtminstone) omvärderats som fascistisk litteratur.

Tankar om detta, någon?

We are not sliding into or headed toward authoritarianism.

RFK Jr saying the quiet part out loud…

In an article about autism, he talks about how autistic people will never pay taxes, hold a job, go on a date etc. “worthless”. Useless eaters.

This is straight up eugenics.

It’s also wrong. Many people with autism or disabilities can do ALL these things, but our worth should not be predicated on that.

Everyone has intrinsic value regardless of economic ability or contribution.

Just liberated the video of one of my talks from YouTube and uploaded a copy to our Vimeo account:

Big Brother Awards 2014: Moving beyond the clouds (we need an ethical approach to design)

(Imagine what a different world we’d be living in today if folks in tech had heeded our warnings back then. But I guess they were too busy making mint.)

PS. yt-dlp is your friend (on Mac: brew install yt-dlp). Also make sure you have ffmpeg installed (brew install ffmpeg). Finally, I had to manually tell yt-dlp where to find ffmpeg although your mileage may vary based on installation method: yt-dlp "<URL>" --write-subs --ffmpeg-location=/opt/homebrew/bin/ffmpeg (--write-subs saves the subtitles if there are any to a file in a format you can use on the web).

Ah, just like the “gated communities” they had in Nazi Germany.

What next? “Retirement spas?”

You think the euphemisms for genocide and ethnic cleansing can't get any worse, and then the editor of the Telegraph allows "gated communities" - or concentration camps, to you and me - to actually appear in print 😡 🤮

The lightbulbs at Sony decide to make Europe and UK pay for Trump’s tariffs. It’s probably a good idea to make an example of them so no one else dares pull this crap.

There's nothing about appeasement that works. Every example I know of just makes things worse than they would have been if people had acknowledged there was a shitty dangerous situation that might cause violence and simply addressed it early instead of letting the bad actors arm more and strengthen their grip on power. #USpol #Fascism

Dear Marco,

With all due respect, you can shove your shithole country up your ass. Those of us lucky enough not to be stuck in your Dickensian hellhole and aren’t masochists have absolutely zero desire to contaminate our lives and enrich your fascist regime by visiting.

TL;DR: Go fuck yourself.

You're kidding right? Her work on cells and aging is a threat to US security? I guess that's true if it means longer lives for the fascists in charge.

"Immigration and Customs Enforcement has twice refused her lawyer’s petition for parole, contending that she is a flight risk and a threat to U.S. security."

Judge allows Trump administration to deport Columbia student Mahmoud Khalil over pro-Palestine activism independent.co.uk/news/world/a…

America is dead. "The Constitution" is meaningless, and the rule of law is once again nothing more than a pipe dream. #uspoli #uspolitics #trump #fascism #mahmoudkhalil


'“Concurrent with these agreements, the EEOC has withdrawn the March 17, 2025 letters to the Law Firms, and will not pursue any claims related to those issues,” Trump noted, referring to his intimidation of the firms.

The announcements come as part of Trump’s widespread attack on law firms, punishing them for filing lawsuits he disagrees with or hiring attorneys he doesn’t like. He’s issued executive orders penalizing some of the country’s top law firms, many of which have bent to the president’s will—including Wilkie Farr & Gallagher, the law firm of former second gentleman Doug Emhoff.

The total amount of free services pledged by law firms has now reached more than $900 million, a concerning statistic not only for other law firms but for the rule of law itself.'

Capitalists: capitalism and democracy are inextricable.

Also capitalists: “US Marine Corps Maj Gen Smedley Darlington Butler claimed he was recruited by a group of Wall Street financiers to lead a fascist coup against FDR and the US government in the summer of 1933 … Members included JP Morgan, Jr, Irénée du Pont, Robert Sterling Clark of the Singer sewing machine fortune, and the chief executives of General Motors, Birds Eye and General Foods.”

None of this is new or surprising.
