I think we are pretty close to the point where university leadership across the country gets an annoyed look when called out about this and merely says "so?" and they think that's that.

A bunch of cops cheering at a political rally — in uniform — as the president and AG endorse a candidate and attack their political opponents is not normal. And it is not okay.

If only Arday was a white moderate or conservative, he could have build a career in Bari Weiss's media empire. Or did a speaking tour about how he was cancelled and is not allowed to have an opinion.

But I was informed by Politico that El-Sayed winning by a small margin was proof that the progressive movement died last night. These were the same people who said Trump winning by a similar margin was a clear mandate and Dems had to turn MAGA-lite or else they'd never ever ever win another election

This Penn State Research Town Hall is infuriating but not because of the university's response to Trump, which overall is better than some other U's. It's just that it's basically "these morons took over things and are a mess so we all have to figure out how to get through this."

The Democratic establishment crash-out is a wonderous thing to see. A bunch of people, their organization named after democracy, unable to handle the results of just a few popular elections, appealing to the unspoken rules of a club they thought belonged exclusively to them. Let's do it everywhere.

In the past week, the Trump regime has sought the names of every trans kid in NYC, passed a rule that trans people must out themselves to buy firearms, and said trans people are akin to terrorists who will be "identified, mapped and neutralized". Where is the coverage? Where is the goddamn outrage?

Tips from a Jew who wants to see Israel abolished and replaced by an egalitarian state with full political and civil rights for all residents of its territories: -"Zio" is a slur, in any context -"Zionist" is a vague term that you should really try to define before you go throwing it at people

Part of the problem with AI is the peopke who are telling us not to worry and it will all turn out great seem to be bad, ignorant or both. So it feels foolish to trust them. Even if they were being honest ( which they are not) i dont want to live the same kind of life they do.

/8 And as your fellow Americans — neighbors, colleagues, even family and friends — justify this and even celebrate it, that they would absolutely do the same if you were murdered — only thin circumstance prevents it. Treat and mistrust them accordingly.

Again it is something that people in previous eras have commented on but I still find it just astonishing to witness in my own: fascism is somehow the natural ideology of loser men, just all of our most pathetic and contemptible instincts rendered into a worldview.

Let’s be clear: the Trump Admin is lying to the American people. This has never been about stopping drugs from coming to the US — it’s about grabbing Venezuela’s oil for his billionaire buddies. Trump has put American troops in harm’s way to boost oil company profits. Outrageous.
