That's not an entirely accurate characterization of American populism. The politics of the Far Right arent inherently populist at all. Modern faux-populists like the Proud Boys and other supremacist groups is underwritten by the forces true populists would oppose: corporations and oligarchs. Calling the PBs populist is a lot like calling socialists communists even though socialism and communism have little true overlap.

Here's the skinny on Governor Tear Gas:

99% of the time ostensibly liberal protestors do serious damage to infrastructure it turns out that they're right wing agitators. Walz knows this, he knew it then. Gassed Left Wing protestors anyway.

The GOP's plan for America's lower classes is simple:

Criminalize homelessness, use fund capital to raise the temperature of the housing market to create swarms of new homeless, incarcerate those freshies and use them to create an agriculture and infrastructure facing slave caste. Those unfit for work will be sent to plague camps where communicable disease runs rampant and the case fatality rate is high.

This is Biden's legacy—his policies legitimized killing the useless with disease.

@AnarchoNinaWrites
Biden supporters will. They'll be the first to kiss Trump's ring.

@AnarchoNinaWrites
I wonder how many prisoners it will take to fulfill America's agricultural needs.

Also, Peter was behind letting Covid rip and reducing PPE in hospitals. He was so successful that if someone were to match a SARS-CoV-2 spike with a more noxious payload, they could easily wipe out 80% of our medical staff on the first path.

So I guess the real question is how many prisoners are needed to feed 74 million people, max.

It only took one Boogaloo Boy with a gun aimed in Trump's general direction to get Democrats to surrender the narrative on the eve of the Republican National Convention. Pathetic.

@AnarchoNinaWrites
How quickly the Democratic Party has forgotten that before they had Manchin and Sinema, Biden could be relied upon to fuck things up for everyone.

@hannu_ikonen

A bullet practically bounced off their guy. They've got to be ecstatic right now.

I don't know who wrote his first public statement after the attack, but it was written by a pro. I imagine they work predictable stuff like this out beforehand for maximum impact, so I'm not going to pretend it was written in the heat of the moment, but it was still very good.

@AnarchoNinaWrites

Glass fragments sounds dubious.

@AnarchoNinaWrites

Years. For years. No person of sound mind ever would have done what Biden did with Omicron. It also explains why this office has done nothing but prep America for a fascist takeover for the past four years.

@AnarchoNinaWrites
Who built the majority of America's domestic surveillance apparatus?

Who armed the police to the teeth?

It wasn't Republicans. Democrats arm those fuckers, Republicans just let them use the weapons. It's a game they play.

@AnarchoNinaWrites

They're mad because they don't understand why a society that hands out felonies for minor crimes is ignoring that a candidate has been convicted of 34 of them.

@bdiss

Is there anyone on the ballot that will actually stand up to these guys? Democratic officeholders always pull this number:

@luckytran

Every virus since the Cambrian explosion likely invested in controlling Complement. Horseshoe Crabs utilize C3 and C3 convertases. It's what makes their blood so valuable.

But not SARS
Not MERS
MPox Clade 1 controls Complement
But MPox Clade 2 does not
And not SARS-CoV-2
All others do. *All*.

CDC is basically Wichita PD in the 80s and 90s saying all those victims bound, tortured, and killed are unrelated. They have to pretend it's natural so they can do nothing about it.

Joe Biden has been impaired his entire presidency. His multiple SARS-CoV-2 infections have accelerated this impairment. He is now unable or unwilling to fulfill the duties of his office and must be removed post haste.

The enemies of American Democracy, the billionaire-captured Supreme Court among them, are aware of his infirmity. They barely waited 3 days to declare the next Republican president an emperor. It's time to cut the shit and see if Kamala has what it takes to save us.

@AnarchoNinaWrites
In the real world, the Biden Administration favors an oligarchist takeover of the United States. They've been laying the infrastructure necessary to make it happen these past four years and all Democrats have done is ignore or deny it.

https://www.whitehouse.gov/briefing-room/statements-releases/2024/05/03/statement-from-president-joe-biden-on-record-decrease-in-violent-crime-in-2024/

(The record decrease in crime Biden references is being observed across the world. It is particularly pronounced in the US, Great Britain, and India--a decline in goal oriented behavior is a harbinger of dementia).

I'm supposed to pretend:

That the pandemic is over.
That a virus that doesn't shield itself from the Complement System is naturally occurring.
That a vaccine that doesn't prevent chronic infection is all we need.
That our gvt isn't intentionally spreading this virus.
That Biden isn't suffering from dementia.
That his cavalier attitude towards Covid didn't make his dementia worse.
That coerced infection isn't genocide.
That genocide isn't fascist.

Bullshit like this is how you get Trump.

@jonathanpeterson

No. But if Dems had kept adolescent sex slaves in the basement of a pizza parlor in some sort of institutional capacity, it would still be a hell of a lot less evil than what they've done with spreading Covid and underwriting genocide in Palestine.

Dems had a great four decade run as the good guys that just couldn't get things done for golly gee shucks reasons. Always reasons. That's over now. Now they're just another bad guy flavor.

@EdSanders @mekkaokereke @beadsland

@jonathanpeterson
Yes Democrats spread Covid, and use disinformation amplified through the state apparatus to do so. If you just learned that today, your part of the problem.

As for Netanyahu, we gave them weapons to defend themselves against a threat. They instead used them to kill women and children. That's on them.

Then we replenished them. They used the resupply to kill more women and children. Over and over and over again. That's on us.

Tesla's Cybertruck is suffering from a 1/8th of a second steering lag. That's a delay that would have even casual gamers throwing their wireless Xbox controllers against the wall. How is it that these are even allowed on the road?
