Alex Berg @itsalexberg.bsky.social · 01/10/2026Jane Doe said that after the assault “It was made clear to me by several friends that the members of Chi Phi were bragging.” Imagine going through the most horrific experience of your life only to learn that the perpetrators are gloating about it. #cornell7 031 0
Alex Berg @itsalexberg.bsky.social · 29/09/2026The reason you’re seeing an outpouring of rage and sadness from women is because so many of us have experienced sexual assault, coercion, and/or harassment, and the men who did it to us also got away with it. #Cornell7 031 0
Alex Berg @itsalexberg.bsky.social · 28/09/2026The Cornell Daily Sun has been covering this story, challenging the admin to do something. The failings reminded me that my freshman year, there was a racist stabbing and the university erected “diversity arches” all over campus. Same BS instead of actually doing something, nearly two decades later. 010 0
Alex Berg @itsalexberg.bsky.social · 28/09/2026As a Cornell alum, I’m horrified but not surprised that the administration failed to hold perpetrators of SA accountable — meanwhile inflicting harsher punishments against students protesting Israel’s genocide in Gaza.

Alex Berg @itsalexberg.bsky.social · 30/06/2026Scapegoating and harming trans people won't solve your problems. Liberating trans people will make the world safer and more equitable for us all. To my trans fam: I cherish you. Your safety and well-being are precious to me. This is bullshit. 011 0
Alex Berg @itsalexberg.bsky.social · 30/06/2026As an ultra runner, transgender women and girls belong in women's sports. The SCOTUS decision will lead to sex testing and policing of any woman athlete who doesn't fit white conventional femininity. The real problems afflicting women's sports are underfunding and lack of media, not trans people. 112 0

Alex Berg @itsalexberg.bsky.social · 29/01/2026we have a seriously stacked show today on @zerlinamornings.bsky.social on @siriusxmprog.bsky.social and it feels like a gift to be in the host seat to process this week with the best listeners. talking Minnesota, the book "Fair Game," AND we have a very special #heatedrivalry guest. gimme a calll! 121 0
Alex Berg @itsalexberg.bsky.social · 28/01/2026don't be fooled by Trump's changes in Minnesota. he doesn't care about the suffering being endured by individuals who've been harmed, abducted, or killed by ICE. what he does care about is optics and that he's being criticized by his own allies. it's never about anyone else's humanity but his own. 041 0
Alex Berg @itsalexberg.bsky.social · 27/01/2026whenever America gets out of this chapter, we need a process of public accountability — Kristi Noem, Greg Bovino, and everyone complicit in a Nuremberg-style trial where they are made to own the horrors they've inflicted. we can't just move on after this. 060 0
Alex Berg @itsalexberg.bsky.social · 26/01/2026this morning I recorded a TikTok video about white people who’ve wondered what side they’d be on in historical atrocities and are doing nothing in this moment — how the way you comport yourself now is your answer. 10 hours later the video is still under review. first time that’s happened. 120 0
Alex Berg @itsalexberg.bsky.social · 24/01/2026growing up in a Jewish household, we talked about the "good people" during the Holocaust who stood by and did nothing, and how that passivity was its own evil that aided and abetted the Nazis. think of that as you take stock of what the Democrats and other "good people" you know are up to right now. 032 0
Alex Berg @itsalexberg.bsky.social · 24/01/2026if you're a journalist using the passive voice or failing to use the exact terms, consider it a dereliction of duty. the NYT and other outlets are complicit in this moment for their continuous sane-washing of the Trump regime's violent and fascistic depravity. 020 0
Alex Berg @itsalexberg.bsky.social · 24/01/2026it is literally the job of journalists and publications to use the right words when they witness and document. what is happening in Minneapolis is an OCCUPATION, ICE doesn't merely detain, it ABDUCTS, and protesters aren't dying in confrontations with federal agents, they are being MURDERED BY ICE. 141 0
Alex Berg @itsalexberg.bsky.social · 12/01/2026watched Heated Rivalry, flew through the season in a night. grateful for such a heartfelt + hot queer show in this time of censorship. fitting that the series is Canadian, since the U.S. government is repressing LGBTQ rights and culture. Hollywood would be wise to see the success and follow suit. 040 0
Alex Berg @itsalexberg.bsky.social · 07/01/2026there is only one correct reaction to ICE murdering a woman in Minneapolis and that it's horrible and indefensible, but of course the Trump administration is going to try. for months, many have warned that something like this was inevitable and here we are. 050 0
Alex Berg @itsalexberg.bsky.social · 03/01/2026Let’s be very clear. Maduro is horrible but the U.S. kidnapping a leader has nothing to do with rebuilding democracy and everything to do with oil, American, and Trump’s interest in the region. At home, the U.S. inciting conflict elsewhere enables Trump to restrict public life in the states. 080 0
Alex Berg @itsalexberg.bsky.social · 03/01/2026Trump, who’s not been held accountable for his own corruption and crimes, is now ordering the U.S. to go into another country to capture a leader with zero transparency or Congressional oversight, for their crimes. Watch as the admin installs another dictator, just one friendlier to Trump. 11279107 0

Alex Berg @itsalexberg.bsky.social · 28/12/2025right now it’s esp nice to see multiple popular shows with unapologetic queer storylines and characters (who aren’t always likable!) between Pluribus, Heated Rivalry, and Stranger Things. certainly would like to see more variety in their identities but refreshing given the conservative moment. 051 0
Alex Berg @itsalexberg.bsky.social · 28/12/2025moved by Stranger Things handling of Will’s coming out and glad that a hit TV show isn’t shying away from an enthusiastic affirmation of a queer character at this moment of censorship and backlash towards LGBTQ rights. his friends and family physically and emotionally embraced him. that’s important. 171 0

Alex Berg @itsalexberg.bsky.social · 22/11/2025It’s a beautiful thing when people change, but demonstrating sincere change happens through accountability, naming harm and working towards repair, and showing change through actions over time. Until Marjorie Taylor Greene does that, proceed with extreme caution and healthy skepticism. 041 0
Alex Berg @itsalexberg.bsky.social · 21/11/2025Trump loves a photo op with a popular person and often functions as a weather vane with press and public opinion. This coupled with Zohran Mamdani's deft ability to find common ground as I expect he did in the meeting explains the reaction. Trump backstabs, so don't be surprised when he does a 180. 073 0
