22 California billionaires have spent a combined $150 million so far to defeat Prop 40. By spending their fortunes trying to stop California from taxing billionaires, they're making the argument for a billionaire wealth tax more clearly and articulately than anyone else possibly could.

This is part of a wider pattern of marginalising #Tibetan in public spaces. In 2021, @hrwchinese.bsky.social documented a systematic reversal of bilingual signage across Tibet, with Chinese characters placed above Tibetan, even in remote villages. www.hrw.org/news/2021/07...

Word of the day: Sealioning I have encountered this phenomenon very often, especially with anti-vaxxers. It has a concrete definition. This describes science deniers who appear to be genuinely curious about a topic but won’t accept any evidence that goes against their narrative. 🧪
Sealioning
A subtle form of trolling involving "bad-faith" questions.
You disingenuously frame your conversation as a sincere request to be enlightened, placing the burden of educating you entirely on the other party. If your bait is successful, the other party may engage, painstakingly laying out their logic and evidence in the false hope of helping someone learn. In fact you are attempting to harass or waste the time of the other party, and have no intention of truly entertaining their point of view. Instead, you react to each piece of information by misinterpreting it or requesting further clarification, ad nauseum. The name "sea-lioning" comes from a Wondermark comi

Plainly the ability to create, and to do it out of nothing (as gods are said to do), *terrifies* these people. They’re stealing true created stuff to make a cheap fake “autocorrect” version—locking creativity into a cash register to which they’ll sell you metered access. At an ever-increasing price.

This execution, for the fascists, isn’t about Hasan. It’s a public ritual of counteracting failures with Iran and communicating that both leftists and Muslims will not be tolerated. The message is simple: we control death and you don’t want to wear the blindfold.

As a homicide detective, I can say with all of my being that there is no lesson learned in seeing someone die. But there is a price. And that price is your peace. Your decency. And the soul of our society.
