@Lobster When psychological manipulation is amplified through carefully orchestrated propaganda in order to achieve goals defined by the cold hard calculus of power and greed then it becomes obvious that someone has realized it is an exacting science.

But, alas, this is just my humble opinion based on observation.

Mathematical science shows what is. It is the language of unseen relations between things. But to use and apply that language, we must be able fully to appreciate, to feel, to seize the unseen, the unconscious.

In just one year, Trump has abused his office at every turn. He has corruptly worked to enrich himself and his family, while doing nothing to help yours with the cost of living.

The fight to preserve our democracy isn’t over — it’s just getting started.

I agree with this gentleman. Any American soybean farmer who doesn't understand why he is going bankrupt is too stupid to run a farm. I can no longer feel pity for the same people who told me that empathy is a sin that is destroying the country.

The Hmong citizen detained half naked and dragged from his home in below zero weather for a ride with ICE, ChongLy Scott Thao, just lost his mother three weeks ago. She had served as a nurse for the CIA's losing campaign in Laos, for which she paid with her homeland and became a refugee before Minnesotans offered her a new one.

Oh I expect this year his treatment will play out a very differently.

He still represents a country. Believe me, one of us wish that would be different but..

This week, Switzerland is hosting Trump in Davos, rolling out the red carpet for a man who is threatening war with NATO and attacking the European economy.

There are so many moments where Switzerland has impressed me. This is not one of them.

Over the weekend, 17,000 people canceled their #WorldCup tickets

#FIFA is holding an emergency meeting

Maybe they will give Agent Orange another pretty trophy? Maybe bigger, more gold... really sparkly? Will that fix the problem? (/s)

As an American: don't come here

Don't do business with the #USA

Until we clean this shit up. Mainly: we #vote #primaries #primaries2026 and get some real left candidates

“…There is some information in there that isn't familiar to a lot of people. Including that the US is currently holding three times as many people in immigration detention as were detained in the entire Nazi concentration camp system in spring 1939—six years into the Third Reich.”

This is irresponsible. It appears, when the Trump regime wants to change the narrative about the murder of a civilian, they can just call up Bari Weiss on CBS News and have them carry their new narrative out to 9 million followers on the disinformation platform.

No critical questions, no investigation, no analysis — just obedient relaying of the regime narrative like a Russian news channel.

Bari Weiss really has turned CBS News into the place to C… BS News.

Ursula von der Leyen called for a “new European independence,” saying security is Europe’s greatest challenge. She reaffirmed support for Ukraine, citing €90 billion in aid and frozen Russian assets, and vowed Europe will stand with Kyiv until a just peace. #EU

Trump says Putin has been invited to join his Board of Peace, but faced with the fact that Macron does not want to join, Trump immediately says "I will put a 200 percent tariff on his wines and champagnes."

Yes… it REALLY is shocking that Macron does not want to sit on a board next to Putin and Trump discussing how to divide the beach front properties on the Gaza coast.
Come on… Any realist knows that no credible person will join.

Megalomanics can do nothing without corporate power.

Big Money was watching from at least 2016 to see how far Trump would be willing to go.

Many oligarchs switched from Dems to Trump in 2024 after making a deal (incl Vance as VP).

Heritage had spent 8 yrs finalising project24. They'd already employed 1000s of magas for the new monarchy.

Fascism can't happen without a vast support network.
