Russia has been at the forefront of the rise of authoritarianism. Putin’s government has suppressed opposition in ways that Trump hopes to emulate. Yet despite intense repression, there is still resistance in Russia. As Putin’s model proliferates, we should learn from it. crimethinc.com/Russia2026

🚨 Noblogs appears to have been hacked. A banner in the top right corner covering up the language change option now reads β€œFree Palestine” and when clicked it opens a tab reading β€œSelf-deport NOW” which redirects to the ICE government website.

U.S. State Department has designated leftist tech group Autisti/Inventati (A/I) a FTO, accusing it of ties to terrorist orgs due to the group’s encrypted platforms such as Noblogs, a popular blogging platform with leftist groups. A/I responded rebuking the designation: β€œWe will not back down.”

Shortest comedy every written: β€œlibertarian party shut down by state”.

The Libertarian Party of Russia (LPR) is freezing all political activity after Russia’s Justice Ministry added it to the country’s β€œforeign agents” registry on July 17. The party says it will stop political work and stop accepting new supporters. meduza.io/en/news/2026...

We’ve all witnessed a lot of those β€œbest police” senselessly beat people protesting fascism.

Governor JB Pritzker@govpritzker.illinois.gov

Our state has one of the best police forces in the nation β€” and we're working to expand their talent pipeline and strengthen protections. Today, I've signed legislation into law that supports their well-being, enhances roadway safety, and reduces preventable tragedies.

Just a small reminder that while we stand outcast amid the wonders we have made, all the world is ours and ours alone. We have laid the wide foundations, built it skyward stone by stone. It is ours. Not to slave in, but to master and to own. And we will birth a new world from the ashes of the old.

Transportation needs to be rethought in all kinds of ways. This vehicle -- 80 mile range, top speed 31 mph, $9k -- isn't for everyone, but it is a better solution for some than what's out there [ex China]. Creativity matters.

It's straight up hilarious that they classify Christian Science as "Christian" but not the Mormons. Further proof that almost no one knows what Christian Science is, despite them infesting DC (and Nixon's administration, Iran Contra, etc).

Joel S.@joelhs.bsky.social

The new Department of Defense faith codes list also classifies Orthodox Judaism as a type of Orthodox Christianity and "Reformed Judaism" as a type of Reformed Christian, while classifying Messianic Jews as a type of Judaism.

Again the reason that Dems can't play hardball is that they instinctively know deep in their bones that they have nothing prepared for higher rungs of escalation. Every city councilor that even floated a .0005% reduction of police funding got a visit from the cops promising to murder their kids.

NEWS --> Top Virginia Dems have decided against exercising a procedural end-run around the State Supreme Court ruling that cost Dems four House seats, the Dem leader of the state senate tells me. This will anger Dems who wanted an aggressive response. Details here: newrepublic.com/article/2102...

If you think Killmonger was the good guy while he is practically twirling his moustache and talking about world conquest, just because he uses a few phrases that sound radical, you are actually not media literate enough to discuss this movie made for people 13 and over.

The left has to pivot ASAP from parroting "the stochastic parrots are totally useless" and embarrassingly made up fake numbers about water and heat, and instead recognize the already-actually-existing apocalyptic power that's rapidly being concentrated right now in the hands of a few.

That does sound very concerning. And in this case, I donβ€˜t think it is just hype. Otherwise they would not share this stuff with Google, Amazon, Microsoft, Oracle et al. #Anthropic #MythosPreview #AI #Zerodays

Please boost the shit out of mainstream media coverage of Prarieland. This is the beginning of a lot of starker political repression and getting normies and libs to freak about it is our number one protective factor.

OpenAI employees pushed for the company to inform Canadian police about a user they thought would engage in real-world violence months before the person did just that, killing eight people in a horrific attack in Tumbler Ridge. The company only reached out to police after the shooting had occurred.
