Lots of rumblings that the Trump administration will intervene to block the Netflix-Warner Bros merger, & pave the way for a Paramount takeover that would include CNN, a further corruption of broadcast news. But state AGs have the power to stop this, if they act fast. prospect.org/2026/02/19/t...

State attorneys general will have a say in whether Paramount ultimately succeeds in taking over CNN, HBO, and the rest of Warner Bros. Discovery.

Not sure how my comment said anything other than, as a white person, I cannot possibly have the same radar for racism as a non white person does. Same for gay and lesbian people who can feel the homophobia dripping from some people, while a hetero may not.

Poison. Kills pollinators, wipes them out. Cancerous, sinks into ground water. There are other ways, organic farmers have been using for years, cover crops, biodegradable mulch, for the home gardener, weeding is zen, gets you right down there in the soil. Herbicides kill bugs, starves birds.

All this discussion, of course, is not because I claimed that anyone said anything racist. My comment, and I stand by it, is, that as a white woman, my radar for racism is not built the same. It cannot be.

Are you using the word "woke" to diminish my statement? It won't. Why would I judge a persons experience of something if I never, myself, experienced it? That was my point. She is not accusing Telerico of any racism toward herself. She is stating that racism comes into play in political contests.

Elizabeth @chickensgalore.bsky.social · 18/02/2026
Over what? If it is about racism, or their experience of it, I listen to their debate, and hopefully learn. If it is about the price of food, or how they will vote in Congress, I guess I vote for the response I agree with. What is the point here?

“Have I ever experienced Talarico say anything like this? Absolutely not,” direct quote from Jasmine Crockett. Did Telerico call Allred a "mediocre black man?". Yes he did. All I know is that I am quoting from the NY Times, who is not reporting vile lies and rhetoric.

Elizabeth @chickensgalore.bsky.social · 18/02/2026
my knee jerk response, as a white woman, is, I cannot possibly detect racism as well as a black woman or man. I have been an activist in politcal left theater, racially integrated in work, leisure, and family. Systemic racism is subtle. I will not tell a black woman who senses it, she is wrong.

"agrees with Jesus". Jesus does not give a fuck if he agrees with him or not, but he does ask the rich to give what they have to the poor, according to the Gospel. Keep it up Elon, a conversion I will pray for myself. Redemption and contrition. Admit you stole the election for a very bad man.

Cluster B diagnosis is not like schizophrenia or manic depression. Cluster B includes psychopathology anti social personality disorders, and narcissistic personality disorders. People like this do not have mental illness that interferes with their lives, but are dangerous to everyone else.
