Fact that within a midterm cycle much of the Republican Party and the political apparatus around it dove into repealing segregation orders and debating the role of Indian people in public life is a huge indictment of the “woke went too far” idea but again acknowledging that means self reflection.

And yeah once you literally outlaw systemic racism as an explanation for why our society looks the way it does you must encourage ideas around natural inferiority otherwise the world doesn’t make sense.

It really gives the game away when the anti trans orgs are calling the election of the neo nazi party in Germany a "glimmer of hope."
​A screenshot of an online article headline from "Inspecting Gender" by Genspect. The main heading reads: "Germany: A Glimmer of Hope for Sex Realists?" Below the title, the summary text asks: "Is the victory of the AfD in Germany a dark day for democracy or a glimmer of hope for sex realists? By David Allison." The bottom metadata displays the Genspect logo, "5 hours ago," and a "Listen" audio option button. In the top right corner, there is a teal "Subscribe" button alongside a circular profile avatar.

🤔Chat, are we cooked? No, I mean that literally. At what temperature have we poached ourselves? Periodic reminder that at any point the US could massively subsidize solar and EVs, with no negative impact to the economy. The only "downside" is that a different set of billionaires would make money🤷🏿‍♂️

“The thing we don't hear about enough, in my opinion, is the lives and humanity of pregnant people.” These kinds of challenges not only seek to overturn state bans, but could be used as part of a larger argument that Dobbs is unworkable and should be reversed: www.autonomynews.co/new-lawsuits...
screenshot from Autonomy News:
Anti-abortion advocates have claimed for decades that fetuses and even embryos are people with legal rights. No one can stop them from making that argument, Duane said, but reproductive rights and justice advocates can and should highlight the people without whom that potential life wouldn’t exist.

“The thing we don't hear about enough, in my opinion, is the lives and humanity of pregnant people,” she said. “We cede that ground to them when we don't plant our feet firmly on the ground and say what our values are, which is that pregnant people should not lose their rights just because they're pregnant.” 

Amplify Legal is making a similar right to life claim in a case it filed against Arkansas' abortion ban. The first hearing in the lawsuit is on Monday. These kinds of challenges not only seek to overturn state-level bans, but could be used as part of a larger argument that the Dobbs decision that overturned Roe v. Wade is itself unworkable and should be reversed.

For everyone replying "ah-ha, DOGE did not fail you rube, it was intended to destroy government" - yes. I've written that piece (see below).

We did this in the eighties, too. It was a bad idea then and it's a bad idea now. Sex and work are not supposed to be mixed. It creates all manner of problems. Why do we keep having to learn the same lessons over and over.

In what world is it the purview of the President/Executive branch “to force conservative cultural changes on academia‘? And why end the paragraph without noting that there is no legal justification whatsoever for Trump and his minions to “force cultural change” on institutions of higher education.
Inside the White House, some of Mr. Trump’s top lieutenants have expressed frustration about a perceive slowdown in the adminstration’s attempts to force conservative cultural changes on academia.

Republicans made climate partisan. Republicans are keeping climate partisan. The exact words & tone that people who give a shit about reality use to talk about climate are not the reason climate is partisan. Using different words will not make climate less partisan.

“Since 1973, 27 gangs or subgroups have been identified through lawsuits & reports compiled by the department’s independent oversight bodies. The gangs have operated out of patrol stations & inside the county’s jails, giving themselves names like the “Banditos,” “Regulators,” and “Lynwood Vikings.”

There's this really odd pattern with Bari Weiss, JD Vance, Richard Hanania etc, where they rise to prominence because their main skill is cultivating the friendship of wealthy patrons, but it's impossible to figure out how they do it because they constantly exude a pungent strain of anti-charisma.
