“how do we win back trump voters in 2026” we don’t. we create an environment where admitting to voting for trump is so socially embarrassing as to render them completely inert. you don’t “win back” trump voters. you demoralize them into staying home. you make it a dunce cap

Once again, I ask why the New York Times & every other media outlet immediately & instinctively reports on the 🇩🇪 AfD as a “far right” or “extremist” party but does not regularly cover the 🇺🇸 Republican Party as such: bsky.app/profile/mcop...

My PhD advisor, Peggy Sanday, published Fraternity Gang Rape (1990). She found gang rape functions as male bonding through domination: men use women to prove masculinity, gain status, & demonstrate loyalty. Group norms normalize coercion, erase consent, & institutional privilege shields perpetrators

30. It's tempting to say that Eric Schmitt looked so bad that he made Jack Smith look good – that Smith's authority as a lawman was evident in comparison to Schmitt's beclownmanship. But the truth doesn't speak for itself. It has to be spoken for.

23. But the story does not end with Schmitt, because his story is part of a larger story – a conspiracy, you might say – to stop the public from fully understanding what the president did in the wake of his defeat to Joe Biden, which is to say that he's guilty of treason.

1. Let's not say goodbye to Eric Schmitt just yet. His story is about more than a power-mad senator falling on his face. It's part of a larger story about the Republicans defending the leader of an insurrection against the United States.

A young woman bravely reported that she was sexually assaulted in 2024 by seven men at their fraternity. But instead of protecting her, Cornell University protected her abusers, letting them off with a slap on the wrist.

Several weeks ago, Phil Tippett's legendary animation studio in Berkeley, CA closed. An anonymous hero noticed a folder of CDs. This turned out to be hundreds of unseen hi-res images and videos from Star Wars, Robocop, Jurassic Park, etc. ~90 isos for you to browse: archive.org/details/tipp...
A casual Star Wars alien fella at the cantina, in a sun faded, reddish photo. Someone will be mad at me for not knowing who this is. Phil, a balding Caucasian man, poses a model of the garthok, an antagonist from the Coneheads movie.Phil, a balding caucasian man, points at some CG on a CRT computer monitor, as a younger man looks on. The screen shows a model of a dinosaur attacking a jeep, while there's an actual physical model of that event in the foreground for reference.an isolated shot of a star wars vehicle. Sorry, I don't know star wars lol

Anyway I don't want to be accused of starting drama. I don't want to be assaulted, and I don't want to be a problem! So I leave and the men assume I'm tired or dull or maybe they don't care bc without me, they don't have to confront the creeps, they can claim ignorance and buy the bar another round.

Yes every woman has been harassed, many assaulted. But every woman has also experienced invisible loss from moments she avoided harassment. She felt a space becoming unsafe, so she left, while men stayed on. And in leaving, she lost: opportunities, experiences, learning, promotions, even simply fun.

For me, the hardest thing about stories like the Cornell gang rape case isn’t reading the initial details—although that is hard. What’s even harder is when men online, especially the journalists and pundits, start trying to combat the feminist outrage by purposefully seeding doubt and victim-blaming

New in PN: The trickle of Republicans opposing Trump will become a flood "Republicans — even some who not long ago donned red MAGA hats — have decided their survival calculation has been flipped upside-down, and now the riskiest move isn’t to break from Trump; it's to stick with him unequivocally."

The trickle of Republicans opposing Trump will become a flood
The risk of bucking him is now outweighed by the risk of NOT opposing him.
