Can we get more of this? “The Japanese American National Museum will ‘scrub nothing,’ Fujioka said, and instead will highlight the importance of DEI. “Our community is based on diversity, equity is guaranteed to us in the Constitution, and inclusion is what we believe in,” Fujioka said.

i am fascinated by the outright refusal of people in the professional political commentary class to just consider the possibility that there is no plan and that trump really is a braying idiot with the more acute case of narcissistic personality disorder on record

Elon’s coming for the Peace Corps, an American initiative he will never understand. Unlike Elon, PCVs are welcome in South Africa. PC Volunteers live on small stipends and a tiny support staff. The budget is $400m, the same amount of money Elon wanted the State Dept to spend on “armored” Teslas.

At the beginning of Half-Life 2, the game works hard to establish a mood of oppression and fear. A masked cop grabs a soda can out of the trash and throws it on the ground. "Pick that up" he says to you in an electronically distorted voice. In 2007 I picked it up. In 2025 I throw the fuckin can back

When I wrote my camps book, people sometimes had difficulty understanding how concentration-camp regimes were proud of what they were doing and wanted attention for it, even as they also hoped to keep many aspects secret and terrorize vulnerable classes. Anyway, this is what that looks like.

The fact that these quislings made this vote while Trump was threatening people by name, declaring journalism illegal, asking if America is “ready” for death penalty for drug users—& praising Schumer for caving…

Making it very easy to know whom to primary in the next few years. Maybe we can replace Gillibrand or Schumer with AOC

They're outright saying they want an uneducated populace without opportunities for women so that they can go back to the kitchen and make babies. They're eugenicists.

@schumer.senate.gov Shut it down, Senator. Do not vote with the Republicans, because deep down you know as well as the rest of us that the president will do whatever he wants if you vote for the CR. Might as well dig in while you still can. Stop his power grab by showing us this is not normal

I’m sick to death of people saying we’re “descending” into fascism. The fascism is ALREADY here. THIS IS WHAT IF FEELS LIKE. And if you’re not feeling it, it’s probably because you’re one of the “good Germans.” @michaelharriot.bsky.social explains

The choice of Columbia in particular shows that there's no amount of suppression of pro-Palestinian speech a university can engage in that will insulate and protect it; so might as well try to do the right thing, which Columbia has determinedly avoided since October 7. www.gsa.gov/about-us/new...

Trump is the author of this hell but he writex it with tools preserved, expanded, and ultimately sustained by first Obama and later Biden. Detaining a legal permanent resident for campus protest, under the flimsy pretense of aiding terror, can only be done with tools Bush built & Obama sustained.

"I can see why the Trump administration is going after Columbia, rather than, say, Stanford, where swastikas were drawn on campus whiteboards, or the University of Alabama, which recently decided to name a building after a former KKK member."
