The only cognizant way to understand this is racism. This is a union choosing white nationalism over labor politics.

the problem with leaving the pentagon unscoured during Reconstruction 2 is you keep an entire officer cohort of blood thirsty, traitorous, misogynists just waiting for the next trump, free to go on fox news to berate any democrat who tries to do anything peaceful or for the betterment of humanity

whenever we get close to seeing a systemic problem with policing, media rushes to frame it as a training problem. however, police culture is at the core of its mistreatment of victims and rape cases. policing is a tool of white supremacy AND *male* supremacy

you know law is just politics whenever you look at antitrust very very clear statutes on the books selectively applied in a way that only makes sense by looking at adjacent corruption there is almost no modern antitrust judicial opinion or enforcement that logically flows from the statutes

That's the point--and, frankly, I think the more most students are exposed to what is truly unique about the academy, the more they love it. A university is one of the only places where people can play with ideas without needing to expect any sort of commercializability.

White moderates will say “I must disavow piker, do you know what he said?” And then give an objectively correct take as an example. They don’t even try to refute the argument. They just clutch their pearls and cry “isn’t it terrible to say?” MLK was right to call these hypocrites out

Two times, judges have found Google to be a monopolist in different business lines. Two times, the same judges have decided not to break up the company as a result. The courts have effectively rewritten the law through their cowardice and caution. From me: prospect.org/2026/09/03/a...

Google avoids accountability again, this time in advertising tech. Why do judges bother to find companies guilty of running a monopoly if they’re unwilling to break them up?

So: what does a grain have to do with anti-fascist economics? It's daily bread — the politics of whether people can afford to live in dignity. And it's seed — what we plant now. The labor movement's old demand had it right: bread, and roses too. An economics in defense of life and democracy. 5/

Economic sanctions are just sieges. It’s not economic warfare, it’s just warfare. Sieges have always been a part of warfare. Blockades and sanctions are still backed by violent force. The terms are meant to obfuscate we’re using starvation instead of bullets to solve political problems.
