It looks like she’s so afraid of losing her job and/or funding to her organisation that she’s doing everything to be a good little toady, despite (based on the evidence) not being a true believer.

I’ve said it before in the other place: We’ve seen this before. Vorauseilender Gehorsam (anticipatory obedience) paved a lot of the way for the Nazis’ step-up from menacing but legal party to dictatorship. This is as pure an example as I have ever seen in recent times.

That’s part of it. But this seems more than just don’t-rock-the-boat. Particularly removing MLK from the planned photo booth and removing the treaties. Unless there was explainer text with the treaties, most people (and particularly GOP lawmakers) aren’t going to understand those documents represent a negative and shameful era of the US

American Exceptionalism™ is a fantasy construct and always has been.

“If you are draining resources, you should have less influence,” she said.

Kind of tempting. But the people who are actually draining resources are the rich, like their idols Trump and Musk, and I will settle for them having the same influence as everyone else.

Spot on… they are just trying to dress up their belief in eugenics and (essentially) a monarchy with a pseudo-scientific veneer. But that’s what is at the heart of this, their belief that the wealthy are just inherently superior, therefore should rule over the rest of us… Fucking creeps.

“It’s easy to forget how small the population of people in the world who actually impacts anything or matters is,” he said.

Yeah. This is true, but it’s not because humanity is full of Untermenschen, it’s because most people are forced to waste their lives grinding out a few extra pennies for hoarders who will never need them. Imagine how much more art and science and history and wonder they would make if we let them have the chance! But no, instead it’s all about spreading DNA from humanity’s worst people because having money is supposed to be an allele.

Scary people.

The Skype co-founder and Estonian billionaire Jaan Tallinn (father of five) donated just under half a million dollars to the Collinses’ pronatalist foundation in 2022.

Another name to watch out for.

The Insurgence: Sheriffs is a podcast series that uncovers how a national network of far-right sheriffs is mobilizing to create a White Christian republic, one county at a time. The series features first-hand accounts from people across the country who have come up against the sometimes-fatal consequences from the unchecked power of county sheriffs and their growing alignment with the new Far Right. The Insurgence: Sheriffs is created and hosted by investigative reporter and PRA Research Director Cloee Cooper, and co-executive produced by Political Research Associates and Cuentero Productions.

What’s the term? Anticipatory obedience? That’s the best possible interpretation. The other is that she is a raging white supremacist.
