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.

Anyway, it's a great look when the nation-state that claims to represent the entire Jewish people, a people famous for existing within the words & books we carried with us everywhere for 2000 years of exile FROM THE VERY CITY IN QUESTION, invades book stores & imprisons their owners. Great stuff.

If they’re not going to let federal workers back into their buildings even after court orders we’re going to have to show up by the 1000s and form human chains to protect them and usher them in

We are so much more deeply fucked than we realize now. These loyalty tests are craven Soviet style tactics, and of course that’s bad, but can you imagine how terrifyingly stupid and incompetent our new government employees will be? Anyone who answers yes to this is obviously an imbecile

Costco, which has come out saying it supports DEI, will make no changes to its existing programs, AND pays workers a minimum of $30/hour, is up 15% YTD. Target, which announced it is ending all DEI programs and has a minimum wage of $15-$24/hour, is down over 4%. Keep voting with your wallet.

Korea's attempted coup was no less dangerous or politically protected by career opportunists and cowards than the current coup in the US was. It was shut down in 6 hours. The president was in jail within weeks. It's only impossible to resist if you are convinced it is impossible to resist.
