Judith Butler: "Once you decide that a single vulnerable minority can be sacrificed, you’re operating within a fascist logic, because that means there might be a second one you’re willing to sacrifice, and a third, a fourth, and then what happens?"

If you’re wondering why I declined to talk to the NYTimes, then you haven’t been following my account for very long. They bear a direct responsibility for the current situation we find ourselves in, and I responded by laying out my position and that I would only talk to @jamellebouie.net

I distinctly remember when my typical class size went from 22-25 to upwards of 30-32 and I was seeing 175 students every single day in my HS social studies classes. It would take 3 hours just to give EACH kid just one minute of 1:1 connection each day. A recipe for falling through the cracks.

And arrogant. Ive never encountered a class of people so convinced that they and they alone have the answers to everything, no matter what the subject in question is--from higher education to medicine to art and literature. They might have no training or skill in it, but are convinced they know best

Years ago, after the Cambridge Analytica scandal, I interviewed a former fb employee, and I remember her continually emphasizing that these tech bros weren't evil geniuses, but were, in fact, dangerous because they were utterly clueless, totally reckless, and had too much power.

I am going to have to be On Here a bit less--this morning I got curious and checked, and my heart rate had jumped from its normal ~70bpm to 127bpm. I'll still offer suggestions about things to do. But this is a reminder to take breaks when you need to. This is a marathon, not a sprint.
