This is what I find so unsettling: waiting until it mounts to a more extreme level is when it’s going to be too late. We should be responding to any little hint of #fascism as it arises. As time passes, more power will be accrued and the worst-case scenario will only become more likely…

“The professors are the enemy,” according to them. Of course they are. Education broadly is the enemy when you seek unmitigated power…

Could they be any more clear about who they are?

How much more “masculine” could corporate culture get? Almost 90% of Fortune 500 countries are run by men, and men also dominate the tech industry…so……

Why are people so trusting of billionaires in the first place??

So…hate speech is okay. Swearing at people is okay. Using the R word like Musk has is okay. But anything HE considers negative will be penalized…?! Okay then…..

Good old right-wing family values… Interestingly, according to numerous psychological studies, it’s liberals and Democrats who have more communal values. Conservatives and Republicans, in contrast, are driven more by power, self-reliance, and independence…

Yeah the hypocrisy’s pretty thick on the other side…but I often wonder how much denial and projection are necessary to sustain it all…

There are conspiracy theories, and then there are real conspiracies… What baffles me is that the conspiracy theorists never care about the real conspiracies (and in fact deny climate change).

I would like to introduce the Bluesky community to Hunter! Hunter (nicknames: Hunty, Hunter Bunter, Little Monkey, Handsome Boy) is a rescue from Mexico. He’s almost 8 and is the sweetest little guy in the world… 🐾 #prouddogdad

Capitalism has a long relationship with fascism. In motivational terms, it makes a lot of sense: capitalists and fascists are both motivated by power, displaying what is referred to as unmitigated agency—the pursuit of individual power at the expense of communal values and concerns (like empathy).

We belong to the community; we belong to the world. These things do not belong to us...

Giving Blue Sky a try and would like to introduce myself 😊 I’m a uni lecturer in psychology at UBC in Vancouver, Canada. This is Hunter in the pic with me (he’s a rescue from Mexico). Interests include science, democracy, social justice, and fighting fascists…
