How can anyone get better, under the conservatives proposals to get people back to work ??
This scheme will help so few people, but will definitely damage many.
Disabled people are not pawns for your political games

I have one consistency, which is being against the totalitarian - on the left and on the right. The totalitarian, to me, is the enemy; the one that's absolute, the one that wants control over the inside of your head, not just your actions and your taxes.
- Christopher Hitchens

Barbie/Thomas the Tank Engine revelation
Só it's a well-known fact that Thomas the Tank Engine takes place in a fascist dystopia. See here for receipts: https://www.cracked.com/blog/thomas-tank-engine-horrible-racist-classist-monster
[Sir Topham Hatt literally immuring one of his subjects for disobedience, a punishment he can apparently impose without any due process whatsoever]
It occurs to me that during the scene in "Barbie" where Sasha calls Margot Robbie a fascist, Margot Robbie responds that she can't be a fascist because doesn't "control the railways":
["She thinks I'm a fasicst? I don't control the railways or the flow of commerce"]
Só it turns out that Mattel owns Thomas the Tank Engine along with Barbie:
Ergo, Margot Robbie must be referring to Thomas the Tank Engine when she says she can't be a fascist because she doesn't control the railways!

“A really efficient totalitarian state would be one in which the all-powerful executive of political bosses and their army of managers control a population of slaves who do not have to be coerced, because they love their servitude.”
— Aldous Huxley, “Brave New World”

Journalists covering a demonstration in Moscow by wives of Russian soldiers were arrested by Putin's police.
Some 20 journalists were detained by police in central Moscow on Saturday at a rally of Russian soldiers' wives calling for their men to be returned from the front in Ukraine. Independent Russian news outlet SOTA reported that 27 people were taken from the demonstration and transported to the nearest police station. Reuters news agency said one of its journalists was among those detained while filming women laying red carnations at the tomb of the unknown soldier in the shadow of the Kremlin's walls in central Moscow. Moscow police did not comment on the raid. "Journalists should be free to report the news without fear of harassment or harm, wherever they are. We are committed to covering world events in an independent, unbiased, and reliable way, in keeping with the Thomson Reuters Trust Principles," a Reuters spokesperson said in a statement. The demonstration was organized by a group called The Way Home, which urged "wives, mothers, sisters and children" of reservists from across Russia to come to Moscow to "demonstrate (their) unity." The Moscow prosecutor's office said Saturday that the rally had not been coordinated with the authorities. Authorities warned against calling for and participating in unauthorized demonstrations. For several weeks, wives of currently mobilized Russian men have been campaigning for their husbands' return from the front, as well as opposing further mobilization.
In Russia, an "unauthorized demonstration" is one which does not support Putin and his fascist policies.
Speaking of fascists, Tucker Carlson is apparently in Moscow.
Tucker Carlson Being Spotted in Moscow Sparks Frenzied Speculation
The reported appearance of former Fox News host Tucker Carlson in the Russian capital has sparked intense speculation over the purpose of the conservative media personality's visit to Moscow. Carlson arrived in Moscow on February 1, and was spotted attending the Bolshoi Theater in the capital, according to Russian outlet, Mash. Questions quickly swirled over why the TV anchor would have traveled to Moscow, and whether he intended to interview Russian President Vladimir Putin during the visit.
A Tucker interview with dictator Vladimir Putin would probably be as incisive as his interview with Trump. 😝 Perhaps Putin will let him see the famous Trump pee tapes.
Maybe we'll get lucky and he'll decide to defect while in Russia. His views are much more in tune with a totalitarian state than with the United States.

One man's immortal bravery in the face of homicidal totalitarianism. This is 'Tank Man', the unnamed Chinese man who stood in front of government tanks after the Chinese government massacred its own citizens in Tiananmen Square between June 3 and June 4, 1989.
As a result of his stand, the tanks responsible for wholesale slaughter were unable to pass.
Nobody knows what became of 'Tank Man'. Nor do we know the true number of Chinese slaughtered by their government for demanding civil and political reform. With a zeal that outstrips Orwellianism, the Chinese Communist Party has banned all mention of the death toll, the massacre, and attempts to commemorate the dead.
Thanks to the freedom of Western nations, a gift that must never be abandoned, we can see the true face of evil that Communist China represents.
May all the victims of the Tiananmen Square massacre rest in peace.

I love this quick exchange in Andor
Senator: If you're doing nothing wrong what is there to fear?
Mon Mothma: I'm fearing your definition of "wrong."
It finally put into words for me why the "you have nothing to fear if you're doing nothing wrong" mentality is problematic.
Like, I always knew there was something that set off alarm bells in my head, I just didn't know how to phrase why.

MASS PSYCHOSIS - How an Entire Population Becomes MENTALLY ILL
Nearly 7 million people have watched this video. It’s 20 minutes long, but if you watch one video this week, watch this one, it will help save your mind from the current madness we’re in. If you like it, share it with others.
In this video we are going to explore the most dangerous of all psychic epidemics, the mass psychosis. A mass psychosis is an epidemic of madness and it occurs when a large portion of a society loses touch with reality and descends into delusions. Such a phenomenon is not a thing of fiction. Two examples of mass psychoses are the American and European witch hunts 16th and 17th centuries and the rise of totalitarianism in the 20th century. This video will aim to answer questions surrounding mass psychosis: What is it? How does is start? Has it happened before? Are we experiencing one right now? And if so, how can the stages of a mass psychosis be reversed?

It looks like Leftist politicians are giving you an election where you can vote for them, or vote for the people they control. Why does that sound familiar?

you know we're part of a dystopian society, when the establishment wants to prevent medical professionals, doctors, from issuing sicknotes
totalitarianism is here, coming in hard & fast.
this is not a real democracy. we see them, with their authoritarian tendencies, their corruption, their oligarch ties and interests, their lack of accountability, their undermining of the law, their erosion of our civil liberties, but most of all, they have lost public trust.

Quote
The Restrict act is a blatant violation of both the 1st and 4th Amendments, with very broad and vague language and draconian penalties. For instance, if one causes undue "risk" to US interests or persons, broadly defined, or if one engages in election interference, they are subjected to fines of up to $1million, civil asset forfeiture, and/or up to a 20 year prison sentence. Basically, it is the Patriot Act on steroids or the Patriot Act for the internet, and grants the government total power over regulating communications, grants the Executive branch dictatorial powers, including wartime powers, and formalizes the Fed Intelligence and Law Enforcement relationships across the digital sphere, as we saw with the exposure of the Twitter files, rather than just farming out tech censorship to the private sector.
Robert Stark, “Beware of The Restrict Act: Patriot Act For The Internet on Steroids” (March 31st 2023).

Reblogging this to spread the word, start calling your reps and make sure they know there will be reelection consequences if this passes!
Seriously people this is how totalitarian states start, this is how dictators get their foot in the door, we either nip this in the bud now or our descendants will be joining the revolution in the future.

Even Milton Friedman couldn't convince Thomas Sowell to abandon Marxism, but working for the federal government did.
Sure, corporations can get big and inefficient, but the government is the biggest corporation, and the only one that can use FORCE against you, the citizen.
And corporations have to compete against each other, the government only grows and becomes tyrannical.
You want government as small as possible — and keep it that way.
