Don't disagree And i have long held the belief that certain demographics actually support climate change acceleration because environmental racism hurt some people more than others. The discrimination is a selling point to them

I agree strongly with this -- in that difficult moment, the possibility of collective effort was conceivable. Not everybody felt it, but many did. I think the political class did not like this one bit.

Lessons from the South: How Brazil held onto its democracy | Opinion
After supporters rioted and trashed government buildings in the U.S. and Brazil, Donald Trump returned to power, but Jair Bolsonaro went to jail. The two countries’ institutions explain why.

There's absolutely nothing, and I do mean NOTHING you can say to the people claiming Nithya Raman somehow stole the election from Temu Tr*mp, because those people don't like democracy and want to destroy it. They believe a has-been loser piglet like Spencer Pratt should, but not Raman or Bass.

A crucial part of Project 2029 has to be performative trials and draconian sentencing for Trump administration officials up and down the organizational ladder. Treat all of them like Timothy McVeigh so that the gravity of their criminality and treason become enduring images in American history.

A big takeaway this year has to be that Sinners and One Battle After Another were big, artist driven, swings bankrolled by WB whose future is ultimately unclear. I like living in a world where people like PTA and Ryan Coogler get to make the films they want to make with those resources.

This stunt where ICE releases people far from home with no proper clothing and no way home should be treated as attempted homicide. In this case, actual homicide. These cases are not accidental or based on misunderstandings. They are deliberate attempts to inflict bodily harm.

The fact that both are quite experienced—8 years and 12 years with CBP—is yet more evidence that CBP should be abolished and all of its agents fired. There's no way to "reform" or "retrain" that, it's just a violent gang with badges.

To avoid the possibility Holocaust remembrance might lead to empathy for migrants, Trump's antisemitism envoy claims Anne Frank "was in Amsterdam legally." In reality, Margot Frank received a summons to go to a labor camp on July 5, 1942. After ignoring this call, they were in Amsterdam illegally.
Tweet from Rabbi Yehuda Kaploun: "Ignorance like this cheapens the horror of the Holocaust. Anne Frank was in Amsterdam legally and abided by Dutch law. She was hauled off to a death camp because of her race and religion. Her story has nothing to do with the illegal immigration, fraud, and lawlessness plaguing Minnesota today.

Our brave law enforcement should be commended, not tarred with this historically illiterate and antisemitic comparison."

As was true in 2020, an actual work stoppage by even a single NBA team (ie the Timberwolves) would be tremendously powerful although I’m sure that everyone who has direct access to these players is telling g them not to do that. Athletes, know your own power.
