2025 Political Thread

Imagine designating "anti-fascism" as a terrorist organization when it isn't even an organization. It's an ideology.

Also Jimmy Kimmel getting muzzled by ABC/Sinclair after pressure from the FCC chair is blatantly and unambiguously authoritarian.

It’s just another nail in the coffin of broadcast television. I’d bet that, if ABC doesn’t put him back on the air, he shows up on a streaming service or cable channel where he can say way more than ABC ever allowed.
 
This is an administration lacking any sense of direction, which happens when you have no moral compass.

There's a distinct possibility that it and its predecessor really run under a cabal of people, much younger than the tired and dirty old man who is fronting them (Biden had a reputation, too, although I don't know that he ever was linked to Epstein), power crazed and unaware that electronic tools give shortcuts to power but don't show the world as it really is .

They think they're living "West Wing" and, to reflect back on Belarus for an example, have no clue of the sort of sharks that swim in chummy waters.
Trump v1.0 did know it; quite a contrast with v.2.0.

There is a large Facebook group for my community and a topic in recent days has been "Did your pastor mention Charlie Kirk by name?", and people saying they're leaving their church because their pastor didn't and going to ones where the pastor did talk about Kirk. What are we doing here?

I had no idea it was that bad.

But really, bad for them because they miss the message that you see clearly. :)

After rewatching the Navalny video -- the man was an elected official and suffered and was murdered, IMO, by a smart (only in power-player terms, in a terrible game) guy -- I realized that all that this most recent tragedy of ours really means is that America has lost two young men, Charlie and Tyler (allegedly), and that two more families are among the anguished victims Hate is claiming in this country.

Totally different thing from Russia, and it's self-inflicted.

But turning towards the light and accepting responsibility for ourselves and for the consequences of our actions -- which I think is most effectively done through the gentle but powerful lens of religion -- is so hard.

Limbaugh used to talk about "illustrating absurdity by being absurd", and he was a master at it. First, he didn't try to hide what he was doing, even if the MSM would conveniently ignore that part. Second, he was usually pretty funny when he did it. None of these guys today can hold a candle to pre-Trump Limbaugh
Humor! The world is parched for humor!!!! :)
 
Well this is starting to look like Vietnam War 2.0 -- Latin America. Venezuela is conducting military exercises now and our extrajudicial killings (I have to agree with the UN until my government explains with proof otherwise, as I wish it would do) now total 14.

Registered with the draft yet?

Great. :(
