but if we get rid of the unaccountable and unrestrained murderous criminal gang that's acting as an ethnic cleansing paramilitary force for a demented Nazi authoritarian, who will keep the streets safe?

Today I wrote about the Epstein files, the abusiveness intrinsic to the billionaire mindset, and our culture's enabling instinct to permit depravity as a privilege of power.

"Where does it all end?" That's what's often asked. Rarely asked is "how do we end it?"

One of the clearest, most honest thinkers I've encountered on Mastodon. This is a brilliant post that captures where the Americans are, and what will come:

1. Republican death squads will murder as many people as they can get away with, and

2. Sooner or later, people are going to start shooting back in self-defense.

There's lots more great stuff in here; this is only a small part.

"Republican gun defenders were lying all along. So now we have another Nazis output besides corpses: lies."

Today I wrote about a good man summarily executed on the streets by Republican death squads, and how, given the inevitable alternatives, even tyrants should hope for a people's liberation from tyranny. https://www.the-reframe.com/the-shovel-next-time/
The Shovel Next Time

Liberation from tyranny is also liberation for the tyrants.

It puts first things first, and it revokes the absolute immunity that our gang of American Nazis claim for themselves.

Absolute Immunity

Alignment with supremacy is a vile choice. Raising the natural costs for those who make that choice by putting first things first.

Again, putting first things first doesn't preclude persuasion or oppose persuasion; it frees persuasion from the abuse it suffers by putting it in its proper place, and it opens up persuasion, by allowing us a wider field: more methods of persuasion, and more effective.
