#SocialMedia has been really depressing for a long time now. Every day, there’s bad #news everywhere, #wars, #naturaldisasters, people being hurt or killed. #Politicians seem more selfish and less helpful than ever. They often argue instead of solving #problems.
Sometimes, it even feels like no one cares about #human lives anymore. All of this can make people feel hopeless or angry. It’s hard to #staypositive when you see so much #pain and #injustice every single day!

A collection of my Fediverse blog posts about fascism and current events, published from April 13th to 15th, 2025. Unfortunately, but not surprisingly, I wrote a lot about the Trump regime, ICE, and nazi billionaires.

The Skinny: Pork Reich on Parade
"If they get away with this, or even if they can just successfully use it to justify applying government pressure against an extremely large, well-funded news organization, there’s no limit to how far these nazis will take this. This is how a fascist regime transforms the entire media environment into pro-Trump, state news outlets and it won’t just stop with the Fox-ification of media orgs either."
