Summary
The Pentagon announced a new annual media rotation program, removing established outlets like NBC News, The New York Times, NPR, and Politico from dedicated workspaces.
The memo orders these organizations to vacate their offices in two weeks, while replacing them with outlets such as OANN, New York Post, Breitbart, and HuffPost.
NBC News expressed disappointment over losing long-held technical capabilities essential for timely reporting.
The move follows Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth’s narrow confirmation and signals a broader effort to reshape Pentagon media access, transforming U.S. government communications permanently.
Right. It isn’t illegal, afaik. But what’s going on with the CBS 60 Minutes transcripts demand, the investigation into PBS and NPR, and this legitimizing disinformation sites that claim to be news, the agenda is obvious - and it’s straight out of the authoritarian checklist. I believe it’s also laid out in Project 2025?
I’m just struggling with the complete absence of a grassroots plan for the people who oppose where this is going. Is there nothing we can glean from other countries that went through authoritarian or fascist takeover in the past century, so that we can anticipate and effectively resist a USA version of the holocaust?
i don’t disagree, at all in fact, the problem is that unless you have strict laws on the book explicitly to prevent this kind of thing, nothing is going to stop it until it’s too late.
The trolley has hit the diversion, you cannot make a choice anymore, you just have to wait for it to play out.
Our best bet strategically, is to wait, if nothing happens, win for us, loss for them, if something happens, loss for everybody, that will probably mobilize a lot of people, if everything happens, we can strike while the irons hot and do something useful.
We’re in a position where we need to be opportunists, scrounging around for the least effort, and most reward.
As for resisting another holocaust, that’s already written, go research ww2 and nazi german history. It’s all plainly written out. Go research religious persecution, shit like that, again, this is a tried and true problem to solve. The underground railroad as well.
TL;DR you can quickly surmise when a large ship is about to collide with something, however, there is very little you can actively do to prevent it from colliding, the only solution is to prevent collision, by all means necessary, before you collide. Nothing else is suitable. You must wait for everything to come to a rest before you can start to help.
