people who I am 99% sure voted for trump at least twice between 16/20/24 are now openly making 'no beardos' jokes at pete's expense in DoD offices that are full of people who voted for trump "Pete is a joke" is percolating far and wide across the force, it's not a GOFO/deep state/w/e thing

A political social network has latched on to a handful of politically active academics whose views are the vast minority in their field, who keep making wrong predictions and denying verifiable facts, but retain a large following. Bluesky recognizes this pattern with climate denial, but not with AI

a lot of ppl discussing the new Biden-Israel article who are engaging sincerely with the belief that the US pro-Palestine movement wanted Biden to do anything even directionally aligned with what we now know he did who are about to learn what I've known for years about that movement's actual goals

Firmly against the "years of lead" crowd. Three years in Peace Corps Guatemala, years working in Nicaragua and El Salvador after. I've seen what years political violence leaves behind, generations later. It is ugly and raw. Nobody wins. There is no version of this where anybody wins.

And the reason they’ve stopped posting is because of the kind of response you get for trying to be rational here This site is not in fact showing you the true views of trans people in a world where we aren’t censored. No one was censoring us on old Twitter. It’s showing you panic & conformity

this is a lie. I'm not gonna provoke this person and their followers, but it absolutely did happen, including at the same time as pushback against Islamophobia, some of said pushback coming from very high up. Both things happened but the shared bond was real and existed & it's wrong to deny

Saying you won’t vote for Talarico, who has a very consistent record supporting trans rights, against Paxton, who is actively trying to harm trans people, is the same thing as saying “I am indifferent to what actually happens to trans people” It isn’t principled, virtuous, or logical

What this comes down to is whether or not you trust the Democratic Party, on an institutional level, to NOT be guilty of orchestrating a scheme to do transphobia nationwide using Texas as some trial run. I do. Some will not, and no matter how often they're proven wrong it won't change their minds.

Fun fact: In the 1850s the Wisconsin Supreme Court declared the Fugitive Slave Act unconstitutional and then obstructed SCOTUS taking it up to overturn them by literally refusing to send the transcripts and case record to DC.

As I explained the last time this dumb argument made the rounds, if Congress was never allowed to change the Court’s size (something it’s done seven times), that would mean four of the *current* justices (all of whom are Republicans) hold unconstitutionally created seats: www.ms.now/opinion/repu...
ms.now
Republicans say court packing is 'unconstitutional.' They're wrong.
The argument that court expansion is unconstitutional is weak, transparently political — and most importantly, wrong.
