"Television is a dictatorial medium, like a one-way parachute. When the superior says something to the inferior, they can just listen and answer yes. The way of answering can be more interactive. I think talking back is what democracy needs." — Nam June Paik (1964)

They are hiding behind their rage and grief to avoid looking at what they are doing Their grief and rage is real, and it very hard to hold space for that when our grief and rage is belittled and dismissed, every time Their feelings are treated as facts, ours treated as punchlines. For years

Remember when people were criticizing comedians for things they said actually said and even though nothing actually happened to them, Joe Rogan and Dave Chapelle and all the “edgy” comedians said the “cancel culture” was coming from the left? Good times.

Vance, Trump, and Bondi each said things yesterday that were horrifying on their own. Taken together, a very clear roadmap for the future emerges Trump is actively preparing a large-scale crackdown on left-wing dissent. The threat of widescale repression is no longer abstract; it is imminent

Democrats have a moral obligation to shutdown the government. Especially given the ways in which the activities of our current government are increasingly immoral, illegal, and overwhelmingly fascist. Failure to do so would be to abdicate their oaths of office.

It’s time for the white community to stop playing the victim & have an uncomfortable conversation about violence, parental responsibility & the families raising the thugs causing all the white-on-white violence in Republican-controlled cities. Maybe it’s their culture Did I do it right?
