Ignorant and mad. They’re consistently ignorant and mad.
And it makes sense. Their president is ignorant and mad. Their political party is run by people who are ignorant and mad. Their right-wing influencers are ignorant and mad. The whole thing is sad and embarrassing.
By definition you have to be ridiculously ignorant to *still* believe the words of a president who’s lied or said otherwise fake and ignorant things more than *four thousand* times in his term. washingtonpost.com/graphics/polit…
The whole thing is sad and embarrassing for themselves, their party, and our entire country.

This isn’t hard to understand. A huge proportion of Americans who identify *ethnically* as Latino also identify *racially* as white and white people tend to vote Republican.
Here’s an example of how race structures the politics of Latinx voters. Lighter-skinned Latinx voters are much less likely to vote Democrat. Moving from darkest to lightest skin, the likelihood a Latinx voter voted Obama in 2012 drops from 97% to 43%. rubenson.org/wp-content/upl…
In that study, 78% of the lightest skinned Latinx voters identified *racially* as white compared to 31% of darker skinned Latinx. So the group of Latinx voters most likely to vote Republican is the group that overwhelmingly self-identities as white. But there’s more...

Let’s talk about how the blackest state in the country has been under white Republican rule for so many years.(1/x)
First some context: Mississippi is 37% black - the largest proportion of black residents of any US state. Given that black voters tend to vote overwhelmingly for Democrats, why do Republicans comfortably win so many statewide elections in MS? (2/x)
Like other Southern states, white Mississippians vote solidly Republican. In 2018, white Mississippi voters voted Republican at roughly the same rate black voters voted Democrat. And since whites are 58% of MS population, Republicans usually win. The *why* is deeper...

40% of all black men in the state of Florida just became eligible to vote *today.* Think about that.
Here’s how the 40% figure is determined. Estimates of the black population in Florida who have already completed their sentence range from 18%-28%. The Sentencing Project has 18%: sentencingproject.org/wp-content/upl…

New research shows a higher 28%: link.springer.com/article/10.100…
But the vast majority of those disenfranchised in Florida are men. Men are 93% of those currently incarcerated in Florida. So 18-28% of black people overall is more like 35-45% of black men in particular who were disenfranchised just a few hours ago and are now eligible to vote.

how come we are spied on in every possible way (#5eyes, #InQTel & hundreds others) and everything is valid to you (& me), the average guy to court, to get conviction, to... fucking it, everything is legal.
But 'we have everything', except that everybody is
2- #MakingADeal because we need to collect evidence in 'whatever legal way'?
Are you fucking kidding me?
None of you have a problem with that?
3-More venting later...
4-That compound that 'we blew up', did Trump speak out against that? If yes, please link me to it. If not, why not? Aren't the 'white hats' in control now? Why are we hiding evidence?
5-And if there is no condemnation and no talk, doesn't that mean that:

Why does Twitter deliberately target Right-wing accounts for Shadow-banning and why it will sooner rather than later completely back-fire and why they are ultimately going to destroy the Left and what a great day that will be. Thread. 1/15
It is no surprise Twitter targets accounts for “wrong think” or as we on the #Right like to call it “free-think” this is because of two events which are now totally and utterly inextricably linked, #Brexit and #Trump and the Establishment have been rocked to the core. 2/15
Neither of which were supposed to happen & yet they did now the Establishment is determined never to allow it to happen again or even at all, the reason for them happening was nothing to do with social media, but was to do with people knocking on doors and persuading others. 3/15

I keep thinking back to a discussion a few months on reddit about THE BELGARIAD. Several comments were made about it being cliche and pedestrian, and someone said, “Yeah, it’s a fine story, but it’s never going to be a classic.”
And all I could think to respond was, “It’s over thirty years later and we’re still talking about it. How is that NOT ‘a classic’?
But that got me thinking- I cite THE BELGARIAD (and THE MALLOREON, its sequel series) as one of my influential works. But what is that influence? I know I’ve read the whole series several times. My copies of the books are in terrible shape.

😳🙄 Right down the middle of the Extreme Anarcho-capitalist Far Right and the slightly less vicious, profiteering Globalist Far Right
Below are extracts from Nicky Hager’s book, “Dirty Politics”

Matthew Hooten, along w Cameron Slater gave Cathy Odger’s Hager’s address, in response to a threatening (“Chop chop for Nicky”) email from Odgers.

That Odgers was emailing Hooten suggests he was part of the “in” crowd
Here is an entertaining article from 2017 in which Hayden Donnell looks into what cast of Nicky Hager’s book had gotten up to since

Yes, Hooten’s in there, but bar his appalling willingness to have Nicky Hager harmed, he wasn’t a “star” character in book

Trump Hotels' website still lists Trump SoHo New York among its properties in the Our Hotels menu. Select its name though to access its page and there's a message about it being renamed

Two errors in the 2nd graf of Breitbart's Trump Hotel DC article:
