Here's an older blog post about Somali pirates.

I know so many Somali people, but I am just now learning about this.

For the record, this includes the "nice" landlord in your family who's "one of the good ones." We're actually coming for them first just so you stop posting pro-landlord propaganda.

For a long time, I thought the Democrats were fighting valiantly but just overwhelmed by the oligarchy and the Republicans. Then I saw that the Democrats keep losing fights they should win and figured they must be just weak and ineffectual. Then I kept seeing them backing off without putting up a fight at all and decided they were gutless cowards. Finally I noticed that enough of them keep voting with the Republicans to always make sure the Republicans more or less win almost every fight, and that they keep starting from a Center position and bargaining to the Right, and eventually after enough of that it became impossible to ignore the only conclusion that actually fits the facts: The Democrats are not over matched, they aren’t weak, they aren’t cowards…they’re complicit.

But seriously, no one should feel bad about asking for help when they need it. I've known people who suffer in secret for so long because they're ashamed to get help when we could have helped them.

The book Unhumans, by Jack Posobiec and Joshua Lisec, is a fascist manifesto. It argues that the “Great Men of History” should take their cues from homicidal dictators like Augusto Pinochet and Francisco Franco, reject reason and democracy, and ruthlessly annihilate the gangs of communist “unhumans” who are currently threatening to destroy the United States. It explicitly advocates “eye for an eye” justice, promising a new McCarthyism complete with blacklists, along with the immediate banning of all teachers’ unions. It is perhaps the most paranoid, hateful, and terrifying book I have ever picked up. (I say this as someone who has read Mein Kampf.) And it comes with a warm and supportive blurb from Ohio senator J.D. Vance, who is currently the Republican party’s vice presidential nominee.

The canary has been screaming its lungs out since Bill Clinton introduced his racist anti-immigrant bill in 1997, but both Republicans and Democrats have not only ignored its cries, but hastened its situation. Both parties have created this. Don't think this won't affect us all.

The genocide and deportation weren't bad before because 2020-2024 were The Biden Years, and everything was good during the Biden years. Nothing anti-queer happened those years either because A Democrat Was In Office, so just remember how good we had it then. Deporting and imprisoning immigrants wasn't bad during those years either because I'm sure Biden treated them nicely because he was a Democrat, and therefore, a nice person. Just like Harris, who was also nice. And Walz who only called the National Guard on Black protestors because he knew it was right for them, in all his wisdom as a Democrat.

But now. Now genocide is bad again because the onarge man is in office, the man who shits in a diaper and looks weird. Did I mention he's orange? And also fascist? Unlike Democrats, who are progressive in every way and never appear to be fascist. Don't you understand democrats only voted against trans people because we have to play The Game? We have to win the elections! We really, really want to win elections! We don't want to win so badly that we would stop supporting an unpopular genocide or deporting latinx people, but other than that ... we REALLY want to win you guys, so won't you please donate to us and vote harder for us in the future? We need to make an even bigger flashing globe next time to win so that people won't remember all the dead and dying brown children they saw in their feed, which again, was good because those were the Biden years, the Democrat years, as a reminder, therefore good!

And America good! We need to save America! Because America has only ever been good. We Civilized the indigenous people, put the black people to work, and don't forget that if you suspect your latinx neighbors of not showing enough party devotion to us, the Democrats, you should call ICE. Yes, you should call ICE just like they suggested on reddit and facebook because we need workers in this country and things haven't been so good since the 13th amendment, and we need to use that "except as" to our advantage. That's our goal. To reach across the aisle in a bipartisan effort to preserve the important things America really stands for.

So never forget how good things were during the Biden years and how bad things are now. In case you need some help, I've made a helpful flow chart:

Democrats -> good things

Republicans -> bad things

Now get out there and remember to tell people they're bots if they say bad things about The Party!
