"Dynamic paywall"??? At least such 'newspeak' attests to the ongoing assault by the far-right to balanced and free #journalism. Guess that soon only One America News Network will be affordable enough for the public to be 'informed' about what is really going on. #SavePublicMedia #CommonGood

#Universitiesunderfire. Political leaders in Europe are also doing their best to crush higher education. Right-wing movements are, successfully, conquering the minds of the world, one inch at the time. The so-called left is unravelling, unable to present a coherent vision for the future. #DarkTimes

If you're too ashamed of your work to do it in front of a bishop, maybe it's time to rethink your life choices and do something more productive with yourself.

Just some creepy armed Mad Max guys trying to gain entry to Dodgers Stadium. ICE says it wasn’t them. DHS says they were Border Patrol. But honestly who the hell knows? They’ve given permission for any psycho to put on a ski mask, point a gun, grab people & throw them into an unmarked vehicle.

Now: @tboas.bsky.social is arguing, in his talk at #NALAS2025, that the most important trend in Latin American politics over the last 30 years is the anti-establishment sentiment. This has been a winning formula for 'populists' in various election. @nalas-org.bsky.social @ykasahara.bsky.social
