The thing about swastikas spray painted on the side of a cybertruck is there’s a 50/50 chance the owner did it.

Trump on Ukraine: "I want them to give us something for all of the money that we put up and I'm gonna try and get the war settled and I'm try and get all that death ended. We're asking for rare earth and oil, anything we can get. But we feel so stupid. It affects Europe. It doesn't really affect us"

I admire Dr. Snyder and use his work in a talk I'm giving tomorrow. But I sincerely wish people on the left would stop using "affirmative action" or "DEI" as metaphors for unearned. This helps the bad guys by reinforcing an association between ameliorative policy and a supposed lack of merit.

Now that musk is saying he’s doing the DOGE stuff “because the globalists have plotted a Great Replacement in which they use government handouts to buy votes from illegal immigrants and urban blacks” maybe we don’t have to act like this is about deficits or cost cutting anymore

If Trump said he was reinstituting chattel slavery these guys would write an op ed explaining why the 13 amendment allows it. The entire conservative legal movement is nothing but stooping lickspittles bsky.app/profile/anth...

True story: a few years ago, I was being interviewed by a reporter for the New York Times. I mentioned the history of eviction statutes and how they tied into Jim Crow. The reporter asked "what's Jim Crow?" When I explained, the reporter didn't believe me and said the US wouldn't do that.

Heartbreaking story. Jocelynn Rojo Carranza, age 11, took her own life after her bullies constantly threatened to call ICE to have her Hispanic parents deported. Her story is one of the many real human consequences of Trump’s anti-immigrant rhetoric. youtu.be/vwMGdnM24Cw?...

It’s not what Trump posted that tells you where this is going; it’s how his people are responding to it that really tells you where this is going.

Just popped over and read the article. It assumes the premise that only men have this desire, which is weird, but whatever. The story it tells at the start—about a guy in a dive bar who figures out how to get some schmuck out of a locked bathroom—is a good one. But there's a giant hole in the piece.

It’s amazing how far The Atlantic has fallen since the days Coates was writing for them. There are still a couple of good writers there, but their editorial collaborationism is an embarrassment to the journalism profession. I’m glad I cancelled my subscription a while back.

Unison is the largest women’s organization in the UK. It has a million women members. The Unison women’s conference just voted for a motion that said; “trans women are women and trans men are men” with no-one speaking against it. Transphobia is a top-down, elite practice.

If there's not a single white person on stage, it's racism. But if there is a single black person on stage, it's woke. The only way to be neither racist nor woke is to only have white people on teevee at all times bsky.app/profile/geor...
