So these memes make me really uncomfortable, and @taylorlorenz.bsky.social explains why. She comes to the same conclusion I do in my book on the Psychology of Liberty -- we need to create an entirely new society, beginning with mutual aid and protection of the persecuted.

Psychology of Liberty is in bookstores now! Here's an NPR podcast about reclaiming true freedom. Hint: It's not what neoliberals, tech bros, and the wealthy say it is. It's how we feel when we are allowed to be the humans we evolved to be. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/w...

I never thought I would have to send money to a Kansan🌻 deported when lawfully attending her green card hearing. She had her hands held forcefully and made to sign her deportation order. My U.S. rep, Derek Schmidt, voted in Judiciary Committee today in favor of deporting U.S. citizens.

On this 100th day of horror, I am haunted by what an anti-apartheid activist told me after leaving South Africa: "I finally realized that the rich people just want the poor people to die."

So this is all a shakedown. Watch Netanyahu grovel and agree to virtually anything to get those tariffs down. Next, a parade of world leaders bending the knee.

Just like Cory Booker, I was awake 25 hours. Unlike Cory Booker, I was thrashing about and fretting about whether my book can change hearts and minds about the true meaning of freedom. Download it free from uni libraries, link.springer.com/book/10.1007..., or ask to review it, [email protected].
