Fascism treats women as mere breeders. "Children, kitchen, and church" was the Nazi slogan for women.

I do like that people are now going through all the pictures of Donald Trump out in public and playing Where's Waldo with Natalie Harp

So the #US military is now murdering first responders..
"A medevac crash in New Mexico that killed four is raising questions about the risks of military GPS jamming. MS NOW senior transportation reporter has more."
This is far worse than bulldozing the East Wing of the White House.

#RFKJr targets #Fauci & pushes #medical #misinformation in fiery CNN interview
In attempting to rewrite the history of the #US #Covid-19 response, “Health” Secy Robert F. Kennedy Jr. on Sunday pinned the blame for pandemic lockdowns on Dr. Anthony Fauci, while simultaneously reviving a string of debunked assertions about #vaccines, #RSV & #measles.

Two people in Michigan have died from the Cyclosporiasis outbreak.
The media is already leading with the fact that they had pre-existing conditions.
They’re pacifying the public.
Anyone could die from Cyclosporiasis, but they want you to believe it can’t happen to you.
It can only happen to the weak, the disabled, the elderly.
The expendable people.
Eugenics.

The first time I watched Return of the Jedi, I wondered how we were supposed to believe that a gelatinous, slimy mound of evil who could barely move around and wholly depended on sycophants to cater to his every whim could have possibly amassed such a fortune that he would inspire fear and be running things.

Interview: "The Nerd Reich”: Big Tech Fascism, Peter Thiel, JD Vance & the War on Democracy
JD Vance's campaign for Senate was bankrolled by the billionaire co-founder of PayPal & Palantir, Peter Thiel.
Vance, Thiel, et al. "were never libertarians. Now that they are the government, we see their true face: They’re fascists."

So, the suspicion that the Tangerine Tyrant might declare a state of emergency to pre-empt a Republican beating in the US midterms seems to have moved from the margins (and expressions of the idea here in a more sensible register, of course) to the mainstream.
Given how polarised between the MAGA crowd & the rest, the US has become, the next step is for the prediction of a civil war to hit mainstream commentators.

Gary, Indiana is 77% percent Black.
Tens of thousands of people have been without power for nearly two weeks.
Many are without safe water as well.
Yet every data center is up and running.
Using enormous amounts of both power and water to enrich the billionaire owners.
This is what oligarchy looks like.
Everyone suffers so the 1% can make even more.

❝ The best time to have made #Canada digitally sovereign would have been before an American president announced his intention to annex Canada and began explicitly deploying America's tech companies to attack his geopolitical adversaries.
The second-best time is now.
By repealing Bill C-11 and legalizing reverse-engineering and modification of digital technology […] Canada will gain a devastating counter to Trump's tariffs. ❞

This morning the US leveled sanctions up on the operators of noblogs.org
The Trump administration makes the baseless claim that noblogs' team supports "violent terrorist" or are themselves terrorist.
Meanwhile the US officials also describe the team as notably "anti-militarist" all in the same breath.
The US says providing blogs to leftist is terrorism now.
