mmpadellan: Dear MAGA, You hated Pope Francis. You hate Pope Leo XIV. You hate ideals taught by Jesus Christ, like loving thy neighbor, feeding the poor, and treating immigrants (strangers) with kindness. Maybe you’re not as Christian as you say. Maybe the problem is YOU. Think about it.

malwaretech@infosec.exchange: Real freedom is saving 4% on my taxes by living in in a country with no healthcare, child support, or functional education system, then paying like 50% of my post-tax income if I happen to want any of those things. Europeans simply cannot comprehend this level of freedom.
LeftistCEO: Paying 20% of your paycheck to insurance = good, capitalist, affordable. Paying 4% of your paycheck to Medicare = bad, communist, too expensive. Americans really are the most propagandized people in the world.
Carl Sagan, Contact: “You’re an interesting species. An interesting mix. You’re capable of such beautiful dreams, and such horrible nightmares. You feel so lost, so cut off, so alone, only you’re not. See, in all our searching, the only thing we’ve found that makes the emptiness bearable, is each other.”
Warren Ellis: “Everything is loud out there, but it’s not on you to have to take it all in at once. When you get up tomorrow, try sitting outside or by a window for ten minutes instead. Just quietly be in the world, instead of the entire world trying to move into your head. You’re going to be okay. See you next week.”

This shit sucks, and it sucks having to explain why it sucks, and it sucks that assholes will argue it doesn’t suck.
You deserve a break. Stop healing. Choose violence. Go batshit insane. Do it for the plot.
leojamesmusic: It works like this, you look the ICE agent right in the face, cell phone in hand and say “Identify yourself as a real officer.” Then you say, “badge number and serial number” because they are playing dumb. Start dialing emergency services. If they refuse two times you call 911 and say, “there is a man here impersonating a cop and he has a gun.” Someone was assassinated by a fake cop. Time for ICE to stop hiding behind the masks. We need to learn who they are.
boredwalktees: Reality is in retrograde.
broadwaybabyto: Alligator Alcatraz was built in 8 days. It took just over a week to create a massive concentration camp. Remember this the next time those in power claim they can’t house the homeless, feed the starving or provide medical care to the poor. They can, they don’t want to.

Lyudmila Pavlichenko: “Every Nazi who remains alive will kill women, children, and old folks. Dead Nazis are harmless. Therefore, if I kill a Nazi, I am saving lives.”
St. Peter: “In 99999999976.33% of all branches of the universal wavefunction, you are an evil dictator who enslaves and murders hundreds of millions! ‘You’ happen to be the version whose wicked ambitions were repeatedly thwarted by bizarre coincidences over and over and over.”
Variant Hitler: “Boom! Gimme the halo and wings.”
St. Peter: “Sigh Right this way, Mr. Hitler.”

Keenan: “The German word for bagpipes’ is dudelsack and I hope this introduces as much whimsy into your life as it has mine.”

Trump to strip LGBTQ+ nonprofits of student loan forgiveness
samsamyea: “People love to say ‘it takes a village to raise a child’ until EBT is the village, until free lunches is the village, until medicaid, public schools and Libraries are the village. Y’all want women to shoulder the weight of raising the workforce out of the goodness of their hearts while simultaneously demonizing welfare moms for using the village.”
birrion: Hating Nazis should be the default position.
alexdmub: My fav college prof once said “there are two normative positions everyone needs to hold: nazis are bad, and slavery is bad.” Anyone who doesn’t meet both of these criteria shouldn’t be taken seriously.
