what is wrong with these people
ICYMI — one of Elon’s DOGE guys Justin Fox saying a documentary is “DEI” if it’s about how historical events impact led Black civil rights because it’s “not for the betterment of humankind”
the stink of gender resentment coming off Silicon Valley has been obvious for a while. these men hate women because they hate being told no.
All of these costs were completely voluntary. No one (in America) was asking for this war. There was no immediate threat. War in Iran is like the Liberation Day tariffs: a pure product of the id of one man.
"We started a war of aggression for no reason & commenced it by accidentally bombing an elementary school & killing over 100 kids."
That simple fact is so horrific that it's just kind of bouncing on the surface of our collective consciousness. We can't absorb its full implications & significance.
"Roughly 1 in 87 Americans—or 1.2% of the population—is actively infectious on any given day." Those numbers mean that there are more Americans walking around w/ active Covid infections than there are transgender Americans. And only one group is dangerous.
Bigotry makes you fear the wrong things.
For comparison's sake, the entire National Park Service costs $3 billion - a year.
NEW at Bolts: For years, Colorado has been ignoring a ballot initiative that was meant to eliminate forced labor in prisons.
A judge finally said enough, and ordered the state to stop punishing people for refusing to work (for a mere pennies).
On the big CO ruling:

“A foundational rule of computer security is to never create a ‘single point of failure,’ meaning a centralized system or node whose compromise wld cause widespread damage.” The Trump administration’s “SAVE” voter purge system—an underreported key part of the “Save America Act”—violates this rule.
New from me: “Why The Trump-Backed Save America Act Threatens Election Security Nationwide *** Buried in the legislation is a mandate requiring every state to funnel voter data into a centralized voter-purge system plagued by security & accuracy concerns & controlled by the Trump administration.”…1/
Last year: e-cigarette makers donate to Trump's bangin' ballroom.
This year: Trump admin says it'll allow e-cigarette makers to offer more, delicious flavors.

So many average citizens have stood up to Trump.
Alex Pretti went to the street to protect his fellow humans, who the Trump regime was harming. He lost his life for it. Renee Good lost her life for resisting.
And sorry, but—these fucking cowards in the Senate can’t vote against Trump nominees?
Devastating reporting. Like RFK Jr., Kristi Noem, and Marco Rubio, Pete Hegseth is reshaping his department to indiscriminately kill tons and tons of children.
A major throughline of the Trump administration.
Under the stewardship of an alcoholic TV host, this is how the Department of Defense is spending our tax dollars:

Trump's assholery has killed a wonderful advanced X-ray astronomical mission that has been in development for almost a decade.
Frankly, if this comes as any surprise then you really need to start paying attention.
RIP Country Joe McDonald, aged 84. "And it's one, two, three, what are we fightin' for?"...
Remember when the IDF had a squad dress up as medical personnel to enter a hospital and execute an injured man in his hospital bed
“Oceania has always been at war with Eastasia. Since the beginning of your life, since the beginning of the Party, since the beginning of history, the war has continued without a break, always the same war.”

In 2013 Aaron Swartz committed suicide for facing 35 years in prison for mass downloading scientific articles.
13 years later, Meta is almost getting away with an infraction orders of magnitude larger.
The law didn't change.

Paramount brings back the sex pests.
“The boys are back in charge. That's really what this is: The boys club has returned, & they can do this because they've essentially bought up all the competition."
It also sends a signal that they want to “normalize” the toxic behaviors of sexual predators.
Similar to the campaign to kill tens of thousands of civilians supposedly because of an attack that killed dozens of people.
Welp. The internet had a nice run.
Some outlets have lost over 90% of their traffic since the "AI" summaries rolled out.
"...the four worst-hit publications [now] get less monthly web traffic combined than the r/ChatGPT subreddit gets on its own."
Answering the question:
How do you radicalize 300 Iranian parents?
Obama’s change in policy towards Cuba and the JCPOA happened, the world didn’t end, everything was fine. Part of manufacturing consent for more war is purposefully forgetting the very recent memory when it was proven to be wholly unnecessary.
I sat down with @stevevladeck.bsky.social at @theunpopulist.net to discuss the hurdles to states potentially prosecuting ICE agents for murder and other crimes, and the need to fix Section 1983 so federal agents are subject to civil liability for violating people's rights.
I wrote about how the US and Israel carried out an attack on an Iranian girls school on par with the OKC bombing and US media relegated it to a back page story. No stand alone evening news segments, no front page stories, it made A11 in the NYT then everyone moved on.
