This is particularly important to understand because Trumpist authoritarianism is the descendent of Jim Crow far more than say Hitler or Pinochet or Orban, and it's going to look a lot more like 1930s Mississippi than 1930s Berlin.

It is Sir Prime Minister Starmer and I am slightly interested in what weird British bullshit makes him lose his job in 3 months but also I won’t understand or care about any of it

Definitely wild that the NYT political coverage right now is 80% Biden must step down and 20% Please don't vote (even though I do), when there is a big document out there detailing Trump's sexual abuse of underaged girls. www.newsweek.com/donald-trump...

Apparently that person is a JKR type so I am filling in the blanks that they are blue MAGA. Which is exactly the type of person that wouldn’t recognize Allen Iverson in the first place, I suppose, so they felt tricked by the NBA man in a hammer & sickle trucker cap

I got blocked for it so it was about Carl Beijer having a pfp of Allen Iverson. That is not an example of digital black. Sally Albright bots were an example of digital blackface

Joe Biden is a known sex pest but I have to believe there are literal bones in Gavin’s closet. Not that he’s openly positioning himself as a replacement here but there’s definitely some element of temp check

Jesus, what a shitty marketing gimmick. Undoubtedly a lot more expensive than just hiring a voice impressionist on a buyout contract (which also sucks but is infinitely preferable in every way to this)

If Biden were to use “absolute immunity” to do useful and cool things for the next four months, that would be awesome. Which is why I know he won’t
