Jesse Hagopian, author of the new book "Teach Truth", calls Linda McMahon an “educational arsonist” burning down our history of resistance so we never learn that change is possible. If the bible is right, someday this educational arsonist will exist among the flames https://www.thenation.com/article/politics/linda-mcmahon-wwe-education-secretary/
Do you think I run our social media? Why do you assume nothing has been said? A decision has been made that it's better to reach Th Nation's massive twitter audience than leave in protest. I agree that leaving is the move but I'm not going to say I don't see their point as well. Be well. Solidarity.
Hi Dave, I apologize for the wording of that comment. Our campaign has been commenting and engaging with people on this topic for two months and so it ends up being a lot of copying and pasting. In retrospect, that was not the right way to reach out to you on this topic.
So glad to hear there are conversations happening internally on this topic.Our campaign isn’t asking people to leave X right now. I think they should stay for now.Our request for them for the last two months has been just that they wouldn’t prioritize X over Bluesky. The link in our initial comment
to a substack article on this topic explains the ask and the justification. So far the only response they have provided has been that they use a cross posting platform called Sprout that doesn’t work with Bluesky. But when we asked if they would switch to one that does like Fedica
they didn’t respond. I would love your thoughts about any of this, and if you have a chance to take a look at the substack piece I’d love your thoughts. It sounds like you might have the ability to communicate with someone at the magazine, which we haven’t figured out yet how to do.

If YOU think Elon is dangerous, please unfollow The Nation until they at least treat X and Bsky equally.
