Last Notes npub1rz2dl2wgxyefagnuqrss50adle5897ffwh72fee58l6730xvk7rq88xaz3 Daniel Keys Moran This is huge for Who fans. The first and third episodes of The Dalek Master Plan have been found. https://www.the-independent.com/arts-entertainment/tv/news/doctor-who-episodes-missing-daleks-master-plan-b2937732.html npub1rz2dl2wgxyefagnuqrss50adle5897ffwh72fee58l6730xvk7rq88xaz3 Daniel Keys Moran List of entities the fascist Ellison family will control: BET Cartoon Network CBS CNN Comedy Central CW DC Discovery Channel Fandango HBO Miramax MTV Nickelodeon Paramount PlutoTV Showtime TBS TikTok TNT Warner Bros npub1rz2dl2wgxyefagnuqrss50adle5897ffwh72fee58l6730xvk7rq88xaz3 Daniel Keys Moran If you object to hate crime laws, but are in favor of stiffer penalties for killing cops, what you're saying is which people you're ok being killed. npub1rz2dl2wgxyefagnuqrss50adle5897ffwh72fee58l6730xvk7rq88xaz3 Daniel Keys Moran The U.S. is at least one of the first entities, historically, to define citizenship that way. It's the superior definition, the one truest to the best parts of the 1776 revolution. The fash who want to turn the U.S. back to historical blood and soil citizenship? One, fuck 'em, they're fash. But two, they're historical illiterates, in addition to their highly developed viciousness and sadism. npub1rz2dl2wgxyefagnuqrss50adle5897ffwh72fee58l6730xvk7rq88xaz3 Daniel Keys Moran 2, if a country has criteria for how to become a citizen -- if citizenship is an ideal, with criteria associated with it -- then you fulfill those criteria and become a citizen. There's certainly a blood-and-soil America, with various borders surrounding the land that qualifies for that. But there's also the immigrant's America, the America where citizenship is based upon adherence to the ideals, though often violated, of self-governance as articulated in the Constitution. npub1rz2dl2wgxyefagnuqrss50adle5897ffwh72fee58l6730xvk7rq88xaz3 Daniel Keys Moran What do you mean, Nazi-Americans aren't Americans? This is a simple one. In some parts of the world, being born in a particular country makes you a citizen of that country. This is still true in most of the Americas, and the U.S., though fash hate it. But there are two ways to be a citizen (maybe more.) 1, be born there to ancestors who were also born there. This is "blood and soil" citizenship. npub1rz2dl2wgxyefagnuqrss50adle5897ffwh72fee58l6730xvk7rq88xaz3 Daniel Keys Moran Fellow elsewhere said Republican behavior would do them terrible damage in the midterms. ... sure. Assuming that there is a midterms election, followed by an even vaguely fair Presidential election in '28, then yeah, their behavior is nuts. It is evident to me that they are going to try to stop the midterms. How much success they will have? Depends on how believable the threat of punishment is to the people who will have to subvert them. I'm not kidding when I say we should hang people. npub1rz2dl2wgxyefagnuqrss50adle5897ffwh72fee58l6730xvk7rq88xaz3 Daniel Keys Moran In WWII, there was only one right side. It wasn't perfect, there were many abuses, but on the other side there were Nazis. You're having a hard time picking a side? Fuck off. npub1rz2dl2wgxyefagnuqrss50adle5897ffwh72fee58l6730xvk7rq88xaz3 Daniel Keys Moran RE: https://mastodon.social/@jmcrookston/115635779318419465 Billionaires are planning to murder most of the human race. Don't doubt it. #note1w88…s2tz npub1rz2dl2wgxyefagnuqrss50adle5897ffwh72fee58l6730xvk7rq88xaz3 Daniel Keys Moran Nicely written. https://media.mstdn.social/media_attachments/files/115/768/538/033/717/768/original/143348df7954e049.jpg npub1rz2dl2wgxyefagnuqrss50adle5897ffwh72fee58l6730xvk7rq88xaz3 Daniel Keys Moran as a story premise it long precedes Black Mirror. npub1rz2dl2wgxyefagnuqrss50adle5897ffwh72fee58l6730xvk7rq88xaz3 Daniel Keys Moran Grief bots, LLMs pretanding to be deceased people. Noooooo. Nope nope nope. People should have the decency to stay dead. That's not the same thing as a person who transitioned to a machine substrate. But fuck me, you think people are mad about gender transition, wait till you see that one. npub1rz2dl2wgxyefagnuqrss50adle5897ffwh72fee58l6730xvk7rq88xaz3 Daniel Keys Moran The Taliban comes off *better* in this comparison. They don't deny the existence of global warming. https://media.mstdn.social/media_attachments/files/115/475/911/675/934/167/original/6bf86b63736aa050.jpg npub1rz2dl2wgxyefagnuqrss50adle5897ffwh72fee58l6730xvk7rq88xaz3 Daniel Keys Moran I'd say we're at 14 of 14. https://media.mstdn.social/media_attachments/files/115/281/101/473/601/611/original/a2760c5e192fddbf.jpg npub1rz2dl2wgxyefagnuqrss50adle5897ffwh72fee58l6730xvk7rq88xaz3 Daniel Keys Moran The thing to remember about that "First they came for" thing is that A, the guy who wrote it was a complacent Nazi until it was his turn, and B, our modern Nazis have read the damned thing and are using it as a roadmap. https://media.mstdn.social/media_attachments/files/115/264/656/925/751/692/original/2bd6df8b83a997c3.png npub1rz2dl2wgxyefagnuqrss50adle5897ffwh72fee58l6730xvk7rq88xaz3 Daniel Keys Moran ABC suspended Jimmy Kimmel for observing that Kirk's murderer was MAGA. If you're paying for *anything* with Disney, you should stop now. Pirate if you have to. npub1rz2dl2wgxyefagnuqrss50adle5897ffwh72fee58l6730xvk7rq88xaz3 Daniel Keys Moran There is no meaningful difference between Charlie Kirk and Charlie Manson. Neither of them killed people themselves. Both of them had targets they wanted dead. npub1rz2dl2wgxyefagnuqrss50adle5897ffwh72fee58l6730xvk7rq88xaz3 Daniel Keys Moran The NY Times wasn't always as bad as it is today, honest. But it was never good. https://media.mstdn.social/media_attachments/files/115/205/787/562/511/284/original/c5ead10ee8412235.png npub1rz2dl2wgxyefagnuqrss50adle5897ffwh72fee58l6730xvk7rq88xaz3 Daniel Keys Moran "I think our compulsory voting, preferential voting system & independent election authority" ... I wouldn't bet against twenty or thirty billion dumped into your election system by hostile forces. "It can't happen here" is almost always false where fascists are concerned. Any shred of power they get will be used to subvert, and the billionaires backing them are patient. npub1rz2dl2wgxyefagnuqrss50adle5897ffwh72fee58l6730xvk7rq88xaz3 Daniel Keys Moran Go back 70 odd years and the Democratic Party, which was strong in the South, was racist and in favor of redistributive policies. The Republican Party in the same time frame was mostly pro-civil rights, mostly northern, and mostly pro-business. Watching the worst parts of both parties coalesce into the modern Republican Party has been interesting. npub1rz2dl2wgxyefagnuqrss50adle5897ffwh72fee58l6730xvk7rq88xaz3 Daniel Keys Moran Economic policies and racism are only mildly correlated, historically. Southern conservatives used to be pretty comfortable with the idea of redistributive policies. That was before black people had a chance to get some of it though. npub1rz2dl2wgxyefagnuqrss50adle5897ffwh72fee58l6730xvk7rq88xaz3 Daniel Keys Moran I'll find another anonymous service. "I wouldn't trust you as far as I could throw you. No! Not that far." - Jamie Summers, the Bionic Woman npub1rz2dl2wgxyefagnuqrss50adle5897ffwh72fee58l6730xvk7rq88xaz3 Daniel Keys Moran Our system flagged an unusual increase in third-party service registration emails. As a result, we have implemented these measures to protect the overall reputation of Proton Mail." ~~~~~ So that's that: two new accounts in two weeks, second one is an "unusual increase in third-party service registration emails." All OK, we *VALUE YOUR PRIVACY* -- just give us a real world email or phone number, no sweat. npub1rz2dl2wgxyefagnuqrss50adle5897ffwh72fee58l6730xvk7rq88xaz3 Daniel Keys Moran Dear Proton Community member, Your Proton account is currently restricted from registering on third-party services.

Why did this happen? npub1rz2dl2wgxyefagnuqrss50adle5897ffwh72fee58l6730xvk7rq88xaz3 Daniel Keys Moran Just for the record, ProtonMail is run by a fascist Trump supporter -- I went to go use it for a couple accounts I wanted to be more-anonymous-than-usual, for reasons that perhaps need not be explained in the current political environment. Registered the first about two weeks ago; second today. It accepted the first, gave me this on the second: ~~~~~ "Your Proton account is currently restricted from registering on third-party services npub1rz2dl2wgxyefagnuqrss50adle5897ffwh72fee58l6730xvk7rq88xaz3 Daniel Keys Moran https://media.mstdn.social/media_attachments/files/114/898/483/212/323/178/original/1d138eb727e76f81.png npub1rz2dl2wgxyefagnuqrss50adle5897ffwh72fee58l6730xvk7rq88xaz3 Daniel Keys Moran Dude, if you're still posting "first they came for" -- that was a decade ago. They're building death camps now. npub1rz2dl2wgxyefagnuqrss50adle5897ffwh72fee58l6730xvk7rq88xaz3 Daniel Keys Moran A guy who I've known many decades said that my embrace of the far left had lowered his opinion of me a lot. We were talking about wealth taxes, qua my earlier post about 90% tax rates. But not just income taxes, estate taxes, real estate taxes, generally speaking, asset taxes. The billionaire class has to cease to exist. What the bootlickers defending them seem to not understand, is that this is the *nice* way to make that happen. npub1rz2dl2wgxyefagnuqrss50adle5897ffwh72fee58l6730xvk7rq88xaz3 Daniel Keys Moran Look, Nazis picked Jews as their targets the last go round because they were about 1% of the German population, and powerless. They picked trans people this time for the same reason. They're rancid cowards and ensuring that worse happens to them, than to their targets, is the only answer. npub1rz2dl2wgxyefagnuqrss50adle5897ffwh72fee58l6730xvk7rq88xaz3 Daniel Keys Moran That democracy is incompatible with obscene wealth has never been more obvious, has it? npub1rz2dl2wgxyefagnuqrss50adle5897ffwh72fee58l6730xvk7rq88xaz3 Daniel Keys Moran When a conservative says "the poor will always be with us," it is a statement not of fact, but of intent. npub1rz2dl2wgxyefagnuqrss50adle5897ffwh72fee58l6730xvk7rq88xaz3 Daniel Keys Moran "If someone says something Nazi on your page and you say fuck you and kick them off, that's fine. If someone says something Nazi on your page and you don't, you're a part of the problem." - Steve Perry npub1rz2dl2wgxyefagnuqrss50adle5897ffwh72fee58l6730xvk7rq88xaz3 Daniel Keys Moran - They don't care about abortion; they care about controlling women - They don't care about balanced budgets; they care about defunding programs that are directed at people they hate - They don't care about authoritarianism if it's theirs - They're not even really hostile to health care ... for white people. - They *do* care about gun control, because they might need someday to shoot POC npub1rz2dl2wgxyefagnuqrss50adle5897ffwh72fee58l6730xvk7rq88xaz3 Daniel Keys Moran They love buzzed the hell out of that poor woman. And I imagined what would have happened if, say, Susan Smith had shown up begging for forgiveness. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Susan_Smith There'd have been no love buzz for her. Once you accept that conservatives are lying about *almost all* of their publicized beliefs, the rest of it hangs together really well. npub1rz2dl2wgxyefagnuqrss50adle5897ffwh72fee58l6730xvk7rq88xaz3 Daniel Keys Moran And the truth is, they don't believe abortion is murder. They believe it's a sin, yeah, in the reductionist sense of women shouldn't be having sex outside of marriage and they *deserve* to be pregnant as punishment, but murder? No. They are anti-women; even the female ones are anti-women. One meeting I went to in Orange County, they had a lady get up and explain that she'd had several abortions, and now she was torn up and traumatized by it. npub1rz2dl2wgxyefagnuqrss50adle5897ffwh72fee58l6730xvk7rq88xaz3 Daniel Keys Moran I used to do clinic defense. I did research for a book on Operation Rescue, thirty years ago now -- went to a Catholic Church where OpResc was popular, ingratiated myself, went to meetings, went to a couple of their protests on their side. (I'm a liberal. Always was -- this isn't a conversion I'm discussing, from their side to sanity; I'd been volunteering at NOW a couple years when I did this.) npub1rz2dl2wgxyefagnuqrss50adle5897ffwh72fee58l6730xvk7rq88xaz3 Daniel Keys Moran Look, if you don't get what's happening, I can explain it very simply: The Republican Party exists to tax you and give your tax money to billionaires. That's it. All the rest, all the bigotry and religion and kidnapping and threatened wars, exists to distract you so that they can continue to steal. I could write a million words worth of analysis and not get significantly closer to the truth. npub1rz2dl2wgxyefagnuqrss50adle5897ffwh72fee58l6730xvk7rq88xaz3 Daniel Keys Moran Dr. King's policy was that nonviolence would achieve the gains for black people in the United States. His major assumption was that if you are nonviolent, if you suffer, your opponent will see your suffering and will be moved to change his heart. That's very good. He only made one fallacious assumption: In order for nonviolence to work, your opponent must have a conscience. The United States has none. - Stokely Carmichael npub1rz2dl2wgxyefagnuqrss50adle5897ffwh72fee58l6730xvk7rq88xaz3 Daniel Keys Moran An NSA tech I knew told me my mailing list was being monitored after 9/11, and suggested I tone it down. Today? I'm certain I, you, and everyone who's ever posted on social media, have a score in a database maintained by the Nazis -- and they'll work their way down the list as quickly as they can. It won't be *that* fast. Too many powerful families split across the liberal/conservative divide. Too many armed people who'll take action if they and theirs are threatened. But it's coming. npub1rz2dl2wgxyefagnuqrss50adle5897ffwh72fee58l6730xvk7rq88xaz3 Daniel Keys Moran Autocorrect is convinced that ducks are a huge part of my life. npub1rz2dl2wgxyefagnuqrss50adle5897ffwh72fee58l6730xvk7rq88xaz3 Daniel Keys Moran Certainly tech billionaires are your enemies. But you might want to consider which of those two words is the critical part. npub1rz2dl2wgxyefagnuqrss50adle5897ffwh72fee58l6730xvk7rq88xaz3 Daniel Keys Moran https://observer.com/2020/11/big-tech-2020-presidential-election-donation-breakdown-ranking/ npub1rz2dl2wgxyefagnuqrss50adle5897ffwh72fee58l6730xvk7rq88xaz3 Daniel Keys Moran I'd be a lot more tolerant of the anti-tech bro sentiment if people could be bothered to use open source. Instead people give money to their enemies. npub1rz2dl2wgxyefagnuqrss50adle5897ffwh72fee58l6730xvk7rq88xaz3 Daniel Keys Moran Fetterman is Manchin/Sinema 2.0. npub1rz2dl2wgxyefagnuqrss50adle5897ffwh72fee58l6730xvk7rq88xaz3 Daniel Keys Moran Google is changing the name of the Gulf of Mexico to the Gulf of America, in Maps. Because they're evil, which, in turn, is because they're run by Nazi billionaires in league with Trump. Ditto Denali > McKinley. If you're not running open source, the Nazis are going to be *completely* up your ass. If that feels like a non sequitur, I assure you it is not. npub1rz2dl2wgxyefagnuqrss50adle5897ffwh72fee58l6730xvk7rq88xaz3 Daniel Keys Moran All the Nazi scum bitching about "woke" shows ...

I will, in the interest of comity, adjust that to "stupid Nazis." npub1rz2dl2wgxyefagnuqrss50adle5897ffwh72fee58l6730xvk7rq88xaz3 Daniel Keys Moran Some stupid lefty furriners I'm reading are expressing pleasure that the US has fallen to the Nazis.
