I wish more people knew about the 1920s Klan because they—perhaps more than European fascists—are the model for Trumpism. This is a good summary and a nice reminder that they do a lot of damage, but in the end, fascists always lose.

here’s my take as a linguist specializing in interpreting indirect language use: nazi symbols and gestures are a declaration of intent to commit violence and can therefore reasonably be responded to with the actions appropriate to one’s bodily safety being threatened.

Sage wisdom from two experienced legal aid attorneys. In any interaction with police or law enforcement, including ICE: “Shut the f*ck up.”

I’m kinda blown away by all these TikToks of people showing up to Republican reps’ town halls & letting them have it over Musk/Trump/DOGE. It seems grassroots. If it becomes a lasting trend to go to town halls, shout down people who are lying to you, and post it online, we might all survive this.

In light of everything happening, I wrote about how the KKK in the 1920s felt unstoppable, about the people that fought against them anyway, and about how fascism always fails. dansinker.com/posts/202…

I'm don't think the data supports that the global far-right is radicalizing "almost exclusively young men". The global far right is recruiting large numbers of men and women in the 30-65 age bracket. The reason young men stand out in analysis is because young women are the ONLY group moving left.

Très nette polarisation, les jeunes femmes votent à gauche, les jeunes hommes à droite voire à l'extrême droite. C'est une constante, les jeunes hommes se politisent via les discours mascu qui font florès sur les Internets.

"High IQ" has become a barely-veiled way of saying "white guy from a privileged background." IQ was always a flawed and eugenic measure but no one even means actual IQ when they say this shit now. They just mean, fellow white dude who is successful and knows a couple big words

il faut être capable d'appréhender l'hétérogénéité de l'idéologie et du mouvement fascistes : si certaines de leurs franges sont effectivement homonationalistes, fémonationalistes ou encore écofascistes, d'autres (toujours dominantes au sein du fascisme) sont hétéropatriarcales et carbofascistes

De nombreuses facs sont bloquées contre les budgets "à l'os de l'ESR", mais les informations circulent peu et les luttes peinent à converger. Un point sur une initiative inédite par son ampleur à l'Université de Poitiers (Lettres et Langues) : non pas "bloquer", mais habiter ⬇️

“If you're not careful, the newspapers will have you hating the people who are being oppressed, and loving the people who are doing the oppressing.” A classic quote from Malcolm X, who was assassinated 60 years ago today.

“WE are the federal law,” Trump says. Claiming a leader embodies the law is part of fascism.

🧵Who is opposing the Trump administration? I analysed 76 actions of the administration since inauguration and then searched for meaningful opposition to each. I grouped the types of opposition and considered what we can learn from both them & actions where opposition has been lacking 1/24

"Our words, relationships, and work, may be marked for criminalization, regardless of whether we are operating outside the law or not. That has always been true, but it is more true now than it has been at any other point in my lifetime."

Not surprised that it's community colleges that are fighting back. Community colleges serve the greatest number of people facing systemic barriers. A large percentage of community college students are the first in their family to attend college.

Of course the person who was promoted because of their race in this exchange is actually Hegseth, whose only qualification beyond being a white male is bootlicking sycophancy.

I’m sharing a Palestinian account every day and today is Mahmoud. Mahmoud ran an ice cream shop before the war that he had worked very hard building and was his only source of income. It was completely destroyed. He is hoping to rebuild it and bring ice cream back to the children of Gaza ❤️ 🍦

Le classement des « villes et villages où il fait bon vivre » est unanimement repris par la presse et les collectivités. Pourtant, c'est surtout un business créé par un ex-conseiller de Sarkozy et un outil pour les investisseurs. Décryptage avec le chercheur @matthieuadam.bsky.social.

Et on sait très bien où ils vont fouiller. Sûrement pas dans le 16eme arrondissement, mais dans les territoires où les non blancs sont les plus nombreux. La criminalisation des enfants. Là où j'enseigne, on refusera toujours cette situation. C'est honteux. Des moyens. Des profs. Pas des fouilles.

Toujours la même stratégie irresponsable & mortifère : 1/ Voter sciemment une loi inconstitutionnelle 2/ Contraindre ainsi les juges constitutionnels à censurer cette loi (comme l'impose leur mission) 3/ Et ainsi, pouvoir alors hurler au prétendu « Gouvernement des juges »

Mahmoud is raising on GoGetFunding which is a little harder to raise on but has less fees and is easier to transfer money- one benefit is they accept amounts under $5 unlike GoFundMe- so if you’re someone who rarely can give because of that limit- this is a good one to give to!

Au sujet de La Tribune anti-Wikipedia, je vois plein de commentateurs dire « c’est le printemps républicain ». Alors oui, mais pas seulement. C’est aussi la sphère pseudo « rationaliste ». Pas pour rien que ça vient du Point. Ce serait bien de mettre à jour notre logiciel de 2018 là.
