My latest.
As journalists and writers, we have a duty to use language that is accurate and describes our current reality.
I’m no longer going to talk about DEI/Anti-DEI.
Let’s be clear. We are facing racial purges and re-segregation.

Where was the press in the summer? Oh, Biden too old.
[“The function, the very serious function of racism is distraction,” Toni Morrison said. “It keeps you from doing your work. It keeps you explaining, over and over again, your reason for being. Somebody says you have no language and you spend twenty years proving that you do.”]
So why did you use your platform for the last 2 years to do/say all you could to dissuade voters from reelecting Biden, rather than warning about this inevitability?
Because male and/or white journalists (especially so called progressives) who did this? I just shrugged and assumed they’re closet republicans, racists, or mysoginists.
Or they think they’ll somehow benefit from Trump2.
What was your reason?
Aimed
At repealing the civil rights act.
Heritage foundation, conservative partnership institute, american accountability foundation. They all seem to have addresses, just like the treasury dept.

But this will create awareness in oblivious people of the racist/transphobic/ableist/misogynistic purges, on a level they can understand.
Every little action helps more people understand what this is, and responses like this provide clarity on your stance. Thank you.
“You know, we fought hard for integration in the 1950’s and 60’s. It has proven to be not all it should be. I think Black folks are more than okay with being separate now. And our stance is bothering the people.” 👀🤷🏾♀️👀

Thank you for speaking boldly, truth, and for calling a thing a thing. No time for any anti-fascists and anti-racists to be mealymouthed about what’s going on.
Politicians within the @democrats.org are in minority both on Congress & Senate.
So, its the people who have the power - to change.
Boycott RED States.
That may pave the way to flip Congress & Senate.
Do call out the segregation, 100%. Just don't stop there.
It’s NOT “school choice”: private religious schools don’t have to take every applicant.
It’s privatization for ReSegregation.
IT’S RELATED!!

My point was that I thought it was a loose characterization, rather than a direct quote. But in 2025, just saying three slurs in a row is... apparently just a bigot's direct quote.

Asking for a few million friends.
Make
Apartheid
Great
Again
We will not.
They will be stopped.
We will all do it. Together.
We shouldn’t have to live among them.
Thank you for giving me the words.
The south has risen again and they are implementing an authoritarian rule. They have all the levers of power and a head start. We need voices like yours shouting the principals of truth, equality, love, justice.
Not has America re desegregated schools.
Hence abolishing the Dept of Education-
DIVERSITY is always there,
Yet fairness isn’t everywhere.
EQUALITY’s the dream we chase.
INCLUSION gives us all a place.
No blacks = no Diversity.
No gays = no Equality.
No women = no Inclusion.
All white, straight, men = Solution?
White men are still the most privileged group in the US, but since the 1960’s that supremacy has been challenged. MAGA wants to reverse those challenges & silence voices calling for equity
This doesn't stop at skin colour / race / gender this is EVERYTHING and EVERYONE who isn't them.
Beyond this— those are all secondary targets, as long as they’re WHITE.
Conservatism is nothing- NOTHING more than *straight white Christian male supremacy* over everyone and everything, their complete dominance of American government, society and culture.
There will be "downsizes" in corporate spaces.
It will be black people, brown people (except for H1B indigent servants), and women.
White people, if you have a white fail son in your basement, ready him to step up. And your mediocre white husband. You gonna be poor like all of us.
He snorked his coffee.
Not "why are you against DEI" but "why are you against diversity, equality and inclusion?"
