Online right-wing rhetoric began shifting last night from saying the left-wing must be destroyed because someone on the left supposedly killed Charlie Kirk to saying the left-wing must be destroyed because there were people on the left who celebrated his death. In case anyone was wondering.

It’s important to understand the extent of the digital bloodlust on X. They’re scraping data from social media sites—including Bsky—to create a searchable database targeting people for perceived thoughtcrimes related to CK. It has 40k names so far, and they’re sharing it with the federal government.

We are almost at 40,000 entries of radical Leftist identities and their employers. This doesn't even include data scraped from Bluesky and X.
This is going to be big.

The full force of the United States Government will come down on these people.
We will not lose one more life to the Radical Left. Not one more.

At least Trump’s ankles are still swollen, so there’s hope.

Pope Leo: “Enought of the idolatry of self and money! Enough of the display of power! Enough of war! True strength is shown in serving life. #Peace”

Those who pray are aware of their own limitations; they do not kill or threaten with death. Instead, death enslaves those who have turned their backs on the living God, turning themselves and their own power into a mute, blind and deaf idol (Ps 115:4-8), to which they sacrifice every value, demanding that the whole world bend its knee. Enought of the idolatry of self and money!
Enough of the display of power! Enough of war! True strength is shown in serving life. #Peace

The sexual abuse of women and girls is a load-bearing beam in the structure of male supremacy. Many men even bond over it, and both men and women often excuse and enable it. We understandably focus on gender—but challenging the hierarchical power dynamic is as important if we want to create change.

I accidentally reposted a video of an octopus throwing a rock that it turns out is AI. My apologies. I’ve undone the repost, but heads up on that one.

All of this unnecessary bloodshed, destruction, cost, and economic pain because Trump was envious of Obama’s signature foreign policy achievement.

Well, this adds some important context (in addition to Orban being a far-right authoritarian and friend to Putin):

Mark Dubowitz on X and Marc Thiessen in the WaPo advocate for the assassination of the negotiating team sent from Iran WHILE NEGOTIATIONS ARE UNDERWAY:

"Fourth, carry out a final barrage of leadership strikes, eliminating the Iranian officials who had been spared for the purpose of negotiations. Iran's leaders must be made to understand that their lives literally depend on reaching a negotiated settlement to Trump's liking. If they refuse to do so, they will be killed."
