Nazis in the streets.
Iām not up on Texas history. Which wall is this?
Same one. The link to the story is in the post.
Oh. I donāt do Twitter threads.
The bit.ly link in the onebox completely bypasses Twitter (?), going straight to the Texas Tribune article.
Seemed kinda obvious from the name. Majorities canāt be oppressed.
Oh wait, unless itās women.
I mean to say, people with the power canāt be oppressed.
At least itās not in Portland this time
Or the population of the global south.
Yup.
good news, milkshakes work
If thereās a āboth sidesā, which sides? Cultures where āboth sidesā will always have āgood peopleā? Or has it always just been good versus evil, with good and evil measured the way itās always been?
The notion of there being two sides is structuralist bullshit. Sometimes there are many āsidesā. Sometimes the two loudest sides both miss the point entirely. Sometimes delusions are called āsidesā and are made stronger by this impulse towards balance.
Itās one of the reasons why I think having only two major political parties for a country the size and diversity of the US is foolish and even dangerous. It supports this idea of there being only two sides, diametrically opposed, us vs them.
In defense of a two-party system, that kind of thing happens under coalition governments too. The difference is, coalitions in the US are formed before the election. Remember the big surprise when Theresa May had to form a government with Democratic Unionist Party.
Frumpish a nazi
People choose which sides to set against each other. Thatās my point.
Well, being a Nazi-wannabe has been working for him so far. You canāt fault him there.
Police arrested 36 people - journalists, anti-racists, and bystanders - so one nazi and his six friends could throw a parade for themselves.
