→ Substack’s “Nazi problem” won’t go away after push notification apology

“[…] Fisher-Birch [a #terrorism analyst] told Ars that #Substack's tolerance of Nazi content has essentially turned the platform into a "bullhorn" for #rightwing #extremists at a time when the FBI has warned that online hate speech is growing and increasingly fueling real-world hate crimes, the prevention of which is viewed at the highest-level national #threat priority.”

Blame the governor! Oklahoma’s “board meeting #porn#scandal goes gonzo.

Only a week has passed since two #Oklahoma #BoardofEducation members complained about seeing #nude women appear on a #TV set during an official board meeting. And yet we've already reached the "just asking questions" stage of the scandal lifecycle, with the state's hard-right #education boss wondering aloud if Oklahoma's #governor might not be behind the whole thing.

Ars Technica · Blame the governor! Oklahoma’s “board meeting porn” scandal goes gonzo.By Nate Anderson

Eyes open my kind, Canadian, anti-fascist friends. The forces of hate are organizing and training in plain sight because they have been emboldened by opportunistic and ignorant conservative politicians who see power as the only goal.

“a months-long CBC visual investigation, in collaboration with The Fifth Estate, reveals exactly where some of these groups are training.

“It's f–king unacceptable,” said Kevin Mans, the owner of Niagara BJJ in Welland, one of the martial arts studios CBC identified. “I have built a team that is pluralistic… these guys are scum.”

Active clubs are part of a decentralized white supremacist and neo-Nazi network that has grown globally in recent years, increasingly moving from online forums to real-world training groups and anti-immigration protests.”

There are a million #conspiracytheories or complicated assumptions of why #trump and his regime are destroying everything in the #usa.

I think they overcomplicate everything and it's actually quite simple:

Trump and far #rightwing supporters are the prettiest people alive.

He lost the election to #biden who they saw as weak. It was a massive blow to his ego, and he wants revenge.

Punish the world as he knows he is dying soon, and won't really see consequences.

It makes sense to me suddenly in a very simple way why #republicans and #rightwing politics are so ineffective at running government almost anywhere -

The #democrats or #leftwing are where people with empathy, and open thinking end up.

The Republicans are where people without empathy, nor creativity end up.

Most people without creativity or empathy are really really stupid, and an entire party just got made out of stupid.

Continued thread

The #rightwing #SupremeCourt gave the go-ahead for Trump to carry out the mass firings of hundreds of thousands of federal workers. More than 200,000 have already been fired or forced out as Trump carries out the Project 2025 plan to radically re-shape the form of government in the US. The violent ICE assault against immigrant families is part of that plan

Thought provoking article. Let's rally and vote for Mamdani in November!

"It is an odd story. (Mamdani didn’t even go to Columbia, for one.) You can imagine a different way of framing the story — a thumbsucker about identity with the headline “What does it mean to be a Ugandan Indian?” But the Times’ racist framing, which implies Mamdani was trying to game the admissions system, is one that plays better with the increasingly racist right-wing ecosystem."
