Me trying to explain fascism to students: "A lot has to do with fear of supposedly stable gendered boundaries blurring, and how that maps onto racial and national hierarchies. But can I really say transphobia is the lodestone to fascism?" Aleksandr Dugin: "Ukrainians are collective transgenders."

The White House cites an NPR feature that states "banana slugs are hermaphrodites" as a reason to cease public funding of the network. But banana slugs literally are hermaphrodites! Like that is just a scientific fact! en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Banana_...

We've reached the point in our descent into fascism where the Jewish governor's house getting firebombed on Passover by a guy trying to bash his head in with a sledgehammer is overshadowed by the story of the President saying he wants to build foreign gulags for US citizens.

Canadian universities have started doing this too. My own sent out an email a week or two ago offering wiped laptops to borrow for people going to the US. (They should probably warn against US travel entirely, but...)

I am apoplectic about this. The first thing you say about Ted Bundy is that he killed women, and then if you really feel like it you can talk about how charming he was or whatever. The first thing you say about RFK is that he’s pro-measles.

An FBI affidavit in the Nikita Casap case references his manifesto calling for the assassination of Donald Trump to foment a revolution and "save the white race." But they can't call it "racially and ethnically motivated violent extremism anymore. This is textbook political correctness.

The conference included outspoken National Socialists as speakers. Are we expecting someone on the left to tank their credibility by speaking alongside them to gain... what exactly? The support of a very specific demographic of insufferably annoying, blog-addicted fascists? Why would anyone want to?

I'm already seeing Right Wing influencers spinning this as "the democrats and leftists are out of control." I have very little faith that this means there will be a focus in people who are actually committing violence.

Two weeks ago Chris Rufo responded to a tweet by Will Stancil confirming that, indeed, his anti-DEI work is not about corporate DEI trainings, but about undoing the Civil Rights movement. Just putting this here for the record in case there's any doubt about that.

On the one hand, one might think that RFK Jr may finally satisfy himself that vaccines and autism are unrelated. On the other, conspiracy theories tend to expand as needed, so by fall he may also "discover" that the "true" evidence is being hidden/distorted/stolen. apnews.com/article/auti...

This is a 12 alarm fire for the economy. If being friends with the president and giving him kickbacks makes you exempt from large import taxes Vs your competitors, it will stratify the whole economy and push corruption and loyalty and political controls deep into the private sector

So from my uniquely weird perspective after living in the UK through Brexit, being in India during Modi's demonetization, and living in Brazil when the real tanked during the Bolsonaro administration, I can confidentally say that Americans do not and can not understand how bad this is going to be.

Feel like this story didn't enough attention -- US attorney Ed Martin was just at a fundraiser with Oath Keepers who were convicted of seditious conspiracy and did NOT receive pardons. They're currently appealing their convictions with Ed's office!

Again, Kelly Meggs was adjudged to be a terrorist. This is quite literally the acting US Attorney, facing confirmation, palling around with someone that Trump could have (and did, with Enrique Tarrio) said was not a terrorist. He did not do so.
