Take the time to watch this video of an American Nazi gathering at NYC Madison Square Garden in 1939. It is chilling.

Our modern fascists aren't as cartoonish, nor quite as regimented (yet). But they are deadly serious.
We can't let them succeed.

If you subscribe to cable/satellite TV or a digital equivalent, you are sending money to the Murdoch family and its sleazy Fox employees every month. Please stop. Please cancel. Do not support this evil company. 2/2

The Murdoch family's Fox "News" did its best to foment national fear and loathing with its dangerously bogus claim that the car explosion at Niagara Falls was terrorism. It's a reminder that Murdoch and his underlings relentlessly inject poison into our civic bloodstream, for profit and power. 1/2

The NY Post is part of the Murdoch family's media empire. Media Matters has been one of the few organizations that has consistently called out the Murdochs' poisonous influence in our culture. No surprise that the Post -- which doesn't disclose this context -- is doing a hit piece on Media Matters.

Musk's SLAPP attack against Media Matters is a direct and more-vile-than-usual expression of his hatred of the press. If that doesn't get journalists to leave his platform, is there anything he can do to get them to do the right thing? (Sadly, that may be a rhetorical question.)

This is in the NY TImes, not the Onion where it belongs.

It's increasingly clear that preservation of creative works will require a significant amount of copyright infringement. The publishing/entertainment cartel will try to persuade you that the permanent removal of creative works from public view is a great thing. It's not.

Very similarly to Trump, there is an extremely obvious solution at hand to this problem in the fact that Musk is coincidentally a clumsy criminal who is constantly committing criminal acts, but that fact is weirdly seen as a moral dilemma instead of a layup.

Bluesky may not be the best place to move from Twitter (currently called "X" by its off-the-wall head), but moving anywhere else is better than staying on an ever-more-toxic site. That this isn't obvious yet, notably to Big Journalism, is an enduring mystery.
