This kind of passive agressive behavior is a huge problem: Portraying the candidate who denied Israeli state genocide against Gaza while demanding unconditional and unlimited weaponry to them, as more civil than her opponent. You don't think we can see she's all about brutality? Hugs don't fix that.
1970 article from TIME magazine about the declining aerospace industry. In Suburbia (1983) we see abandoned tract housing in Downey CA due to freeway construction and probably declining aerospace job markets. People left behind dogs which become wild packs. Unemployed men form vigilante groups, etc.
Daniel Bessner embarrassing himself trying to be the next Mark Fisher, Mike Davis, or Jefferson Cowie, but coming off more like a Doug Lain. If you want a good commentary on the decline of the first wave aerospace economy with punk music try Penelope Spheeris' "Suburbia."
Creepy anti-abortion crusader Dr. Christina Francis of the American Association of Pro-Life Obstetricians and Gynecologists (AAPLOG) tells a PBS News Hour interviewer that doctors who claim new anti-abortion laws endanger women are just too lazy to read or too dumb to understand the laws.
Watching semi centenarian Samuel Moyn speak as his dentures shift and his now mostly blind eyes blink from behind coke bottle lenses is not fun. But I want to hear what this ancient, irrelevant, dementia addled dinosaur has to say before he reports to the Euthanasia chamber. I'm not being ageist.
Daniel Bessner and a friend sharing a wonderful lol about fat people, unmarried and childless people, and lesbians. If you care about this it just shows you're a larping, shit lib, idpol focussed, censor who doesn't get irony.
Wow. If you want to see one of the worst dramatic representations of the pro-Palestinian campus movement watch Law and Order Season 23 episode 1. I know the show is copaganda but it leans liberal. In this case, "Hillel liberal" which is essentially pro-Apartheid and pro-genocide, playing the victim.
John Bircher type from 1970s cartoon "Wait Till Your Father Gets Home." I haven't seen this since I was a kid, but in the first episode, the main father character he's talking to was also basically an Archie Bunker type small business, anti-woke reactionary, but he was trying to be more sensitive.
Tonight we watched "Nirvana the Band, The Show, The Movie" and it's fantastic. It starts big and I thought there wouldn't really be anywhere to go with it and that it would just be a bit boring. No. It gets WEIRD! Thumbs up.
This is just weird. A pro-white supremacist Black guy posts on X to erase the contributions of non-white immigrants. His implication is that it's white labor that "built NYC/America." People clap back "The Dutch WERE immigrants" missing the point. Second meme is the guy's actual racist point.
Nothing like an 8 episode Daniel Bessner podcast on the political economy of grunge to put you right back in the exuberance of the movement. Like reliving your youth. And the Pacific Northwest Timber Industry angle will finally answer the question "Why all the flannel?" This sounds wonderful!
Sad to see one of my regular podcasts, Last Born In The Wilderness, interviewing off the rack at Macy's campist, nationalist, Putin apologist, Indi Samarajiva. "Ukraine wasn't attacked in 2022 by Russia ..." If you say so, smart guy. "Putin is fighting Nazis in Ukraine." Rave on mah man.
Greg Bovino attended a "Remigration Summit" of neo-Nazis in France, and recently tweeted to ICE agents at Delaney Hall, NJ, an image of him Sieg Heiling. He also gave interview in a far right magazine where he compares himself to Nazi general Rommel when indicating the type of leaders we need.
Marjane Satrapi, author of Persepolis died. Mikey Inouye (karaokecomputer), Hawaii's most high profile tankie immediately smeared her as a pro-Western imperialist propagandist. He's wrong, but he dislikes her for critiquing the IRGC regime, who liquidated communists, leftists, and feminists.
John Bolton took the US out of the Iran nuclear deal during Trump's 1st term. Before that he was a war criminal as an architect of the 2003 Iraq invasion. The US is currently carrying out "defensive strikes" in their war of aggression and Bolton's advice is "attack harder." He's not the opposition.
To all faux radicals and socialists using the term "the Epstein Class": You are throwing class analysis out in exchange for anti-Semitism. The term equates class with "race" (Jewish) and is a shorthand way to paint all Jews as both ruling class and pedophiles. "Class" here means "Jew-controlled."
Mikey Inouye (Karaoke Computer) is the highest profile twitter-tankie from Hawaii. He's been enthusiastically applauding every non-western capitalist mass murdering dictator and now he's graduated to open anti-Semitism. Congrats, Mikey. Good luck against "the zionist media" and "the Epstein class."
I guess Andy Ngo wasn't able to spin this as a "trantifa" shooting so he's just going with "they took out some terrorists." A shooting is either good or bad depending on how it helps the White Christian Nationalist MAGA playbook.
The Rolling Stones "De-Aged" video for "In The Stars" completes their journey to soulless commodified husks as hordes of faux Bohemian hipsters pathetically grasp for their 1970s Reenactment Society approved 15 minutes of Tame. The video is AI and the song feels like it is too.
