Those not inducted into the Cult of Dorley may often wonder why loads of us basically go feral over it. These two photos are a year apart. The first one was taken on the 27th of May 2024. The second one is from yesterday. Because I read a book.

Sometimes I think back to my 15+ years experience of seeing and interacting with TERFism. It used to be much of the hate I saw from them was oriented toward transhet women, and their claim that we become conformist parodies of traditional femininity.

Not a Marxist theory - a Stalinist, that is to say redfascist, one. The Bolshevik perversion of the left is why you have such a feckless, incoherent, and reactionary left nowadays, exemplified in the 'libs and fascists are the same' idiocy.

Everyone noticed how these people went from “Harvard discriminates against Asians” to “Harvard is colluding with the Chinese!!” Right?

There's an article to be written, but absolutely not by me or quite frankly any man, about how a lot of the women in the Trump admin can best be described as "Mean Girls fascism"

On the one hand the US government is demanding that Harvard give them recordings of every single one of their students so they can be disappeared to an offshore concentration camp for Thoughtcrime. On the other Oberlin had an article about culturally insensitive bahn mis in 2015

It's both. It has to go back to the House, too, and a lot of those Red District Rs need to hear from their constituents that they're cooked if it passes.

join trent and me as we talk with @victorerikray.bsky.social about the “DEI” discourse and how it’s pretty straightforward that the point of trump’s so-called return to meritocracy is just a purge of nonwhite/cis/straight/male folks from public life www.liberalcurrents.com/halftheanswe...

Trump's apparent decision to just wash his hands of Russia/Ukraine and simply not think too much about Israel/Gaza is another manifestation of how childish his imperialism is, totally unconcerned with concepts like credibility or responsibility

America: We figured out how to go from a bunch of small colonies to the most powerful country in the world. One word: Immigration! And it’s been such a powerful engine of success that it’s positive effects have overcome lots of bad politics and foolish policies. Trump administration: Hold my beer.

We will know them by their fruits. I never once thought that JD Vance really had the interests of the working class at heart. The "working class" can't be separated from its female & minority parts. Trumpism has always been about exploiting white working class sentiment for the benefit of the rich.

In the eyes of the Trump Guards, America need not be great by conventional measure. It only has to be a playground for cishet white males. They’ll still get to enjoy it even if it becomes a shithole country. This is what they are making this country to be.

I read the article. It means that Harvard can no longer have any international student. Every existing student has their I-20 status revoked. Of course it’s blatantly illegal and will be challenged in court but the uncertainty will drive away future students.

Not only do they not understand the right as having agency, they don't understand the voters as having agency. What happened in 2024 is voters handed the arsonists the keys to the fire department. The firefighters are stuck standing on the curb while the house burns & the arsonists strip the trucks.

Let me tell you how much Trump and Republicans benefit from being likened by the online left to a natural phenomenon that just happen rather than actual human beings who make choices and are suscepitble to pressure

Example 1,000 of why lefties lose: golden opportunity to slam Mike Johnson and 215 Republicans for voting take away the Medicaid and food stamps that people in Chicagoland rely on. Instead this is a post about Chuck Schumer, who didn't vote for the bill and won't vote for it.

Can Dems succeed in re-labeling for the public the GOP's One Big Beautiful Bill, the One Big Attack on Our Health Care Bill? That's the task. Seems doable, especially when you add the assault on NIH and other elements of Trump's agenda. Make the GOP the anti-heath care party.

As pissed as I am with Dems for our culture of gerontocracy and leadership's reflexive shirking from any boldness, let's not forget that one party voted lockstep to cut $1.5 trillion from public health, and one party voted lockstep to oppose it. It seems obvious but these are not the same thing

In the midst of all the typical anti-Dem dooming on here rn (not Sam), these ppls inability to ever consider that Rs have agency for their own actions is making them miss the fact that the small margin of passage means that every vulnerable House R can be hit w "you were the deciding vote" attacks

I lived for 40 years but really don’t have much social experience. My life was and is still too simple; people I know are of very similar experiences. Which is why I’m never going to be a fiction writer. I read others’ works, I marvel at them, and then I move on. I admire them but it’s not my thing

Republicans snuck an amendment into this bill to ban Affordable Care Act insurance plans from covering abortion care. This is part of their play for a national abortion ban, in the middle of the night, and ripping healthcare away from millions.
