My neighbor's kid invited himself over to play chess with me and now I'm calling child protective services on his dad for telling him pawns could move sideways

Republicans cheer for ‘mass deportation’ – a dark new chapter in America’s history of othering ‘them’

The failure of lib responses to bullshit like this stems from a refusal to admit that there might be at least a kernel of truth in the offensive arguments. Maybe on an originalist reading, the constitution does apply only to white people. But that's a reductio proof against originalism.

Seeking fiction podcast recommendations. I like weird things, vaguely sci-fi or time travel things, darkly humorous things, scary is ok, need a narrative tho. Not gonna tell you what I've already listened to but there is a best answer (that I have listened to) and I'm curious if anyone gets it.

Adorno got it right in 1945
As Adorno explained in 1945, this extreme dimension of fascism led to torture, persecution, and extermination, and yet almost
no one outside the fascists actually took them at their word. Almost
nobody considered the true effects of fascist lies and promises of
destruction. “The implausibility of their actions,” Adorno wrote,
“made it easy to disbelieve what nobody, for the sake of precious
peace, wanted to believe, while at the same time capitulating to it.”
The political effects of fascist lies were cemented by unconscious
leanings that rendered the untruthful the reality. “Every horror
necessarily becomes, in the enlightened world, a horrific fairytale,” Adorno wrote. “For the untruth of truth has a core which
finds an avid response in the unconscious. It is not only that the
unconscious wishes horrors to come about; Fascism is itself less
‘ideological’, in so far as it openly proclaims the principle of domination that is elsewhere concealed.

Squid games but it's just a chess tournament except if you talk to your opponent at the board after your game the guards shoot you. No prizes.

Sometimes I wonder whether I actually like playing chess, or if what I actually enjoy is being in a quiet public space where it is socially acceptable to be mean to anybody who makes a sound

My parents next door neighbor was a pioneering video game programmer which means when he wants to talk to me about chess it's less "vibrating anal jeans" and more "yeah so my advisor at Berkeley started using university computers in the 70s to create table bases. Are they up to 8 pieces yet?"
