Absolutely idiotic framing.

I only see stupid luddites refraining from seizing the means and condemning themselves to slavery.

Moran admittedly does the best imaginable job a journalist could possibly do when confronted with the enormous, thankless, and impossible task of extracting anything of value from a big lawless sack of fascist shit.

The most stupid universe of all stupid universes and we had to exist contemporaneously with it. What are the odds?

I'm trying to guess which many of the various styles of racism and xenophobia are encoded and multiplexed there, it's quite a lot.

@Nickiquote @skinnylatte In every major city of the "developed" world, possibly with the exception of Irish cities.

@Nonilex They are Nazis. That should be a hint of how their story ends.

And if the poor person is not white middle class... well, that's too bad...

@bmacDonald94

And that hat should be red, not white.

@ErickaSimone

Apart from the obvious, I can't make even make sense what she's so mad about. Because you have some political views?

Some journalists decided stop doing the obvious thing that they should have stopped doing five or ten years ago. They're not going to give their work to Musk for free, and they are not going to drive public to Twitter for free anymore.

The object of torture is torture.

Important report by Apoorva Mandavilli.
No props to the NY Times ever for trying to afford themselves some token of plausible deniability for aiding the fascist regime.

AOC accurately describes Elon Musk, although I'm unsure what good an apt literary description does so late in the game.

Liberals going through yet another stage of denial: attempting to correct the Nazis when liberals interpret their words as an error as if Nazis had misspoken when they're promising to cull people.

They still don't believe them.

Besides, you can see something more through that lens.

The liberal person is not complaining about the literal or figurative culling.

The liberal person is complaining about the Nazis saying it.

History shows the pattern—authoritarians don’t misspeak, they telegraph. When they say “cull,” believe them.

It’s not just rhetoric. It’s a roadmap.

Anarchist nationalists for Ukraine and against the people of Russia.

The American mind can only produce recursive stupidity beyond belief making everybody a J. Edgar Hoover fanatic in miniature.

It's obvious that Putin is a monster, that should go without saying, but what are you going to do if you create a void of power that is occupied by something like Trump and Vance in Russia?

The inability to think beyond the next sacrificed pawn on the board is breathtaking.

Stupid. Stupid. Stupid.

3. “Military-grade destruction and overwhelming of a civilian population”

4. “Highest of treasons”

My disgust for Democrats for having allowed this to happen is infinite.

Having had the machinery of the state at their disposal, the decision to preserve the stability of a status quo of inherent injustice and giving priority to the peaceful transfer of power to an illegitimate Nazi government is a stain that they will never be able to remove.

@aral That also reminds me of certain journalists who were close friends of the tech billionaires, journalists who amplified them and made a career hanging out with them, some having even written books to glorify them, and now that they can't disguise it anymore all of a sudden they appear to have developed something that would vaguely resemble ethics, if it wasn't so laughable.
