Every day brings more devastation. But daily forms of rebellion can restore our sense of purpose.
The exterminating force of Project 2025 is plowing through the culture, the government and people’s hearts and bodies like a drunk on a violent tear. We wake each morning, holding our breath to bear witness to the new devastation: PBS and NPR defunded, cuts to the fight against human trafficking, Medicaid gone for millions, Ice working to surveil critics, tons of food for the poor ordered burned and wasted.
The momentum of cruelty always feels inevitable. Cruelty is by definition “a callous indifference to or pleasure in causing pain”. For those of us who have suffered physical, political, racial and emotional abuse, it feels like a familiar steamroller of violence. We only have to witness the cries of parents being separated from their children, men screaming out for “libertad” from cages in Everglades detention center (AKA Alligator Alcatraz), non-violent protesters beaten for trying to stop a genocide, to be frozen in that same incapacitating dread and fear.
What is the antidote to this destructive environment of mendacity possessing us now with fear, ennui and self-mutilating rage?
Ash-lee Woodard Henderson, a powerhouse activist and brilliant organizer, told me: “It’s not decided where we go yet. Which is why it feels tense. What we know is that there’s no going back to an old normal because our economic system has failed us and our governmental structure is being destroyed. They’re trying to replace what was with this minority rule of disgustingly wealthy humans dictating what can happen not only in this country, but globally.

A Real eye opener is
Christopher Titus blog !
Libtard MAX !
Another racist screed from the usual suspects. According to the narrative, if you’re not a communist, you’re a “white suprematist”.
Just another hit the wall, box wine, cat woman striving for meaning in life by making other people miserable.
“our economic system has failed us and our governmental structure is being destroyed.”
This is actually a correct statement made by a leftist about the institutions that they have promoted and created. Their economic system is neo-feudalist oligarchy under the guise of Marxism and it does appear to be failing and under attack. Their control over government structure is also faltering.
What these people should do is tune out, enjoy their short ride and live it up like Hunter.
Ok, what is this one about?
Paraphrased slightly from Stuart Chase
Some of these narcissistic smug self absorbed leftist morons actually believe this stream of runny verbal diarrhea and similar fantasies. There is no other explanation for the hardcore 20% who still believe in orange man bad, senile crook and brainless whore from the prior administration good.
> What does the V stand for?
Twat. She has trouble spelling.
These sorts of articles are being written by people who are on their way to justifying violence.
Sigh. Another writer proving that inside every leftist feminist there’s an angry 12-year-old girl with profound daddy issues who really needs to be talking to her therapist, not the world.
No, I think she has already had one.
Indeed.
The Guardian is to the left of Stalin.
Not much for me to say but I think this is relevant.
sing it loud and sing it proud sista

and i want everyone to hear

she wrote vagina monologues
so i am guessing vagina
>> V (formerly Eve Ensler)
What’s the “V” stand for?
(Dare I ask? 🤣)
V. Isn’t she on The Great British Baking Show, with Johnny Hollywood?
“Pru”?
Just saw pics of Eve with a passle of other lezbeeyons, including Hanoi Jane Fonda.
A mob of Maudes.
Using the word “Cruelty” is a co-ordinated ploy. It really is not the first word that always comes to mind criticizing Trump’s policies. You could say greedy, racist, shortsighted, amoral, xenophobic, misogynistic, repressive, uncultured, ignorant, antiscience, cronyistic, self-serving, violent - there are hundreds of words to use - but the one that has been decreed is “cruel.”
And all the liberal outlets and writers are using it. Is propaganda more effective or more transparent for using the same word all the time?
