On the *same day* the Cornell Seven drugged and raped Jane Doe, Cornell banned four students (including the President of Cornell JVP) from campus for three years for nonviolent, pro-Palestine protests. The same Cornell officials let the rapists off with apology essays.

You have to wait until the sixth paragraph of this piece before you learn, in the New York Times reporting on the murder of THEIR OWN EMPLOYEE, that the victim was a trans man who had been abused for being trans by the in-laws who murdered him. www.nytimes.com/2026/09/28/u...

I know they mean "problem" in a narrow amoral sense but even there it's mostly just late empire capitalism. The procurement, goals, policy, contracting, wars, "lessons learned", "alliances", graft, culture and, sure, politicians. Systemic issue.

It’s very simple and it’s been said over and over but I guess it needs saying continuously: if you deem one group too small to have equal rights you are enabling fascism, not fighting it. The people saying Dems are GREAT on trans rights are not paying attention and/or saying stuff like this.

The Democrats defend the Kennedy Center but not trans people.

Could have asked any halfway respectable person who followed stuff like this and known things were going to go real south from the get go. (Some of the analysts probably knew too they just tried/had to float a soothing outlook as long as they could.)

just astonishingly well put.
three posts by gillian branstetter:

NYT leadership is very self-conscious of the fact its audience is generally wealthy, liberal, and educated, so the paper often tries to expose them to ideas (no matter how reactionary) they presume their audience isn't seeing while simultaneously playing to their anxieties and vanities

Most of the NYT readership is not in danger of being "pro-Trump" and in fact find being
"anti-Trump" very important to their self-concept as "liberal," particularly when the
NYT then enflames their fears about things like campus protesters or trans kids. "I'm anti-Trump but..."

Being wealthy, prestigious, and self-assured in their own virtue, they have now been given permission to act on these reactionary ideas with the power they have all while still being assured of their own tolerance
