Anarchists: often said to be frighteningly violent and/or unhinged because maybe a handful of times in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries they used bombs or guns to target literal blood-soaked tyrants and help usher in the end of feudalism.
People who manufacture, sell, buy, and use guns and bombs daily to kill another nation's conscripted commoners along with a healthy dose of completely innocent civilians, who perpetuate genocide and other war crimes every year: heroes, I guess? "Civilized?" "Great leaders."
The distinction of course is that one obeys the "rules of society" about who it's okay to wantonly murder (whose "lives matter," in fact) while the other does not, and you've been trained to believe that anyone who violates those rules must not have any principles at all. All along, the rules have been crap.

"Hear, goddess queen, diffusing silver light, bull-horned, and wandering through the gloom of night. With stars surrounded, and with circuit wide night’s torch extending, through the heavens you ride: female and male, with silvery rays you shine, and now full-orbed, now tending to decline."

One thing that's great about living in #Japan is that it's one of the few countries where the main hard-left party both has some power, and is critical of the pseudo-#fascist, ethno-#nationalist party tha…
We are barely 6 months into #TheAmericanFascist Presidency and we already find ourselves with fundamental rights in the American Constitution under direct threat and the power of the judiciary to enforce and check the power of the President being pulled back.
And Democratic Party members seem to be all talk and very very little action or leadership to counter this.
Are they waiting for the midterms to take back Congress?
At this pace, surely they see the risk that there may not BE midterms. Or that the results are negated, disputed or invalidated.
I can’t fathom how they are not removing themselves from Congress now in protest and calling for a general protest/strike of all freedom loving Americans to restore the constitution, force the Trump appointed fascist enabling judges to resign, and force Trump and his Administration to go.
July 4th is coming. Independence Day? Or not? Democracy or not?

I've written a wee letter to My MP, John Cooper (Conservative, Galloway and Dumfries) on #Gaza.
I'm sharing it in case you're thinking of doing the same, to link you to the sources I've used. Please do not simply copy my text, since multiple copies of the same letter have much less effect than multiple original letters.

I definitely enjoyed today's wordle, probably because my guesses worked very well, providing good clues and having eliminated most options (I think, bot will have to confirm) at the end.
Bot confirms only 2 words were left.
Bot and I always have a difference of opinion on a result like my 1st guess, bot thinks it's unlucky because there are so many words left, I consider it lucky because it's eliminated 5 letters, and not constrained my coming up w/ words for my next guess.
"So if ChatGPT destroys literacy and law, then ChatGPT is going to kill God. By this I don’t mean that the bearded guy in the sky is going to be found dead of a gunshot wound to the chest, but that monotheistic religion as we have traditionally understood it will not be able to function in a post-literacy regime."
