I just set up a private forgejo instance and it was really quick and easy. So far I'm enjoying it.

yeah totally, it's more for the people on the sidelines than for the fascists themselves

I agree completely. Principles, consistency, etc aren't important to them. I wonder if they are even conscious of that. When they use something like this shooting as overwhelming evidence of "leftist violence" or whatever, ignoring decades of basically exclusively right-wing political violence, I can't tell if they are just acting in bad faith or if they are actually incapable of seeing their total disconnect from the facts of the world. Both are scary but the former less so...I can wrap my head around that a bit more easily.

I don't think it's about whether or not Paul Pelosi is a good person or not, just about pointing out the clear and deliberate inconsistency of the right when it comes to violence

Is that what Dune is about? Isn't his whole prophet status carefully engineered over years and years, and is actually a cynical ploy to reestablish their family dynasty? The whole series is a critique on Lawrence of Arabia type narratives...
