Since the falling out, former allies of Musk, incl Trump, are now using his Nazi salute to discredit him, while some critics of Trump are trying to excuse it to redeem Musk as a potential ally, so I'm re-posting my @identitiesjournal.bsky.social blog on it: www.identitiesjournal.com/blog-collect...

For terrorism & extremism scholars/studies, there's a massive gaping chasm where state racism, fascism & violence are concerned & should be opposed - particularly when committed by western liberal democracies & their allies against marginalised & racialised people & left wing protestors. 1/

Flirts?! It's a long term relationship And how is nativism worse than/an implication of racism when it's a barely concealed articulation of it which is totally mainstreamed already! This is absolute nonsense that describes what has been going on backwards. www.thetimes.com/comment/colu...

Important to recognise they aren't doing this for the (obviously laughable) reason that they think it'll 'promote growth', but because McSweeney has told them universities are coded as 'woke' & it lets them pit HE & FE against each other, claiming to support 'working people' over woke intellectuals.

Just been at the grocery store. They've locked up infant formula & stock Israeli products. They don't care about poor kids here, much less those on small boats in the Med & Channel or Palestinian children in Gaza. It's shocking not surprising & not either/or. They're connected.

Just want to reiterate that I’d be very surprised if this happens. Trump can only pardon Chauvin for his federal conviction. If he does, Chauvin gets moved to state prison, where he’d get less protection. To get out, he’d need a state pardon too. And I don’t think Tim Walz is going to do that.

This type of reporting only serves to normalise far-right politics by exaggerating the role of the "public" in politics and consciously ignoring that public opinion is massively influenced by top-down processes The issue is not immigration but our public debate www.theguardian.com/politics/202...
