O senso moral da extrema-direita: Elon Musk assume que sabia que Trump é pedófilo/abusador, mas só agora que brigaram. Antes, pelo visto, estava tudo bem em ajudar a eleger um monstro, já que acreditava que isto o ajudaria a expandir sua fortuna. Ninguém da extrema-direita presta. NINGUÉM.

From Bluesky to the Guardian! In my new op-Ed, I argue that the “male glaze” of media and politics is empirically, normative, and politically wrong and that progressives should focus more on the left turn of young women.
