The Labour Party saying "The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing" is beyond parody.

Sometimes you can't give up with a story. I've been working on this since November. On how domestic abuse victims are being criminalised as a result of new laws. www.opendemocracy.net/en/domestic-...

sorry but it's absolutely nuts that the FA can act so quickly to ban trans women from football on the grounds of 'safety', while at the same time have absolutely nothing to say about suspending players who have been accused of actually sexually assaulting women. www.bbc.co.uk/sport/footba...

Okay, a lot of people are expressing outrage about this, and I also feel outrage about this, but since everyone else has already expressed my feelings for me, I'm going to put on my Teacher of Analytical Thinking Pants and point out something important.

We are THIS CLOSE to getting a mask ban removed from Hochul's budget deal. Keep calling your state senator and assembly member. Tell them there is no acceptable form of restriction on masking. I know they want to go home but come on now..

“The new charge would be a class B misdemeanor and apply if someone wears a mask or covers their face with the intent of concealing their identity while committing a class A misdemeanor or felony or immediately fleeing the scene” They’re, of course, hanging this on Jews (WHO DO NOT WANT THIS)

Pretty clear admission that the NYT killed a story about the implausibility of the lab leak because editors believed bad-faith Trump Admin sources over actual scientists. donaldgmcneiljr1954.medium.com/how-i-learne...

You should strive to wear the best mask you can that fits your face. Generally this will be a head strap respirator. There are a few folks who will pass a fit test in an ear loop, but they’re the outliers rather than the rule. Any mask is better than no mask, but to up your game, get headstraps!

I do genuinely wonder how many people think what happened with Wikipedia is that “society accepted it” rather than that they put a ton of work into making it reliable, something that is not going to make AI reliable because no technology to actually understand meaning has been or can be invented.

I think larger-scale stuff like co-ordinated global fascism and climate destruction accelerationism is an attempt to do what previous fascist projects haven't and lock it in. I still don't think they'll succeed

Meet LAPD officers Joshua Sportiello + Edward Pedroza. These two pigs assaulted and arrested South LA Cafe owner Joe Ward-Wallace last year. They are still out in our streets & bringing violence to our communities. Joshua Sportiello has a documented history of violence against Black men - THREAD:

There's another issue here though which is that defund the police and to a lesser extent abolish ICE were the more reformist slogans adopted to have a broader popular appeal electorally instead of abolish the police and abolish the border Moreover, ICE must be destroyed

I'm sorry but people really have to stop pretending that individuals being mean to other individuals "causes" fascism. NO. Oppressors have oppress marginalized people AS A KEY COMPONENT OF FASCISM. There's just a lot of confusion in the land and we need clarity.

Genuinely trying to be helpful here when I say that there are zero ways to sloganize disruption of our oppressive status quo that people who have even the slightest investment in maintaining it as is won't intentionally misinterpret or willfully misunderstand. There are none. It has never happened.

I can think of literally ONE Democrat who ran on "defund the police". He won his election for City Controller of Los Angeles in a landslide (61% to 39%). Mejia received more votes than any LA citywide candidate in history including Karen Bass and all previous mayors.

Yep. And his campaign adds were literally billboards that showed how much $ went to police and how little to education, infrastructure, & social services. A slam dunk.

"Abolish ICE" and "defund the police" are both reasonable and correct on the merits but were absolutely neutered by centrists smearing them as radical activist overreach.

Democrats did not run on Defund. Sometimes I think that Democratic voters themselves don't know this. They ran AGAINST Defund.

Instead of building an inclusive feminism focused on the margins, a lot of "critique" effectively became anti-solidarity projects with institutional backing, misappropriating ideas like 'intersectionality' and 'coloniality' to argue that actually, we can't all work together. Also, transmisogyny.

(Did a lot of press interviews at the end of last year for my standup special. There was a particular statement made, that all the entertainment websites decided was not newsworthy - they were obviously right! But why not just bluesky it, right? I don’t think any publicists are here yet …)

This one of those things where Democrats are not yet nearly radicalized enough, but the reconstruction agenda must include burning immigration law as we've known it to the ground and salting the earth. The status quo ante already treated it as a special Constitution-free zone and that won't do.

When might we begin to see research results about the level of cognitive decline caused by COVID? I really think that this is a significant factor in so many things right now including politics. People are struggling to keep information straight and to make any sort of connections at all.
