part of the political issue is that popular understanding of mid century america is filtered through nostalgia-drenched popular culture, often through stories told from the perspective of a child or, if not a child, an affluent adult

A tricky thing about modern society is that no one has any idea when they don’t die. Like, the number of lives saved by controlling air pollution in America is probably over 200,000 per year, but the number of people who think their life was saved by controlling air pollution is zero.

If you think this can’t happen, remember that of the 125,000 Japanese Americans who were interned during WWII for years without charge or trial, two-thirds were U.S. citizens. Including me.
The image is a screenshot of a tweet from Brandon Bradford (@BrandonLBradfor
). The tweet reads: "Deporting Americans without due process then saying they no longer get due process because they aren’t in America means no one has rights, FYI. Nightmare scenario."

Canadians! Join me in signing: UNIFOR.org/EndIPV In ON, police reported instances of IPV are ⬆️ 11% since 2019. 44% – of 🇨🇦 women report having been subjected to IPV. This is a widespread public health emergency that needs to be declared an epidemic. #IWD2025 #EndIPV #Canada #HumanRights
In Ontario, police reported instances of intimate partner violence have risen by 11% since 2019.

In Canada, one woman is killed by an intimate or former intimate partner every six days. Almost half – 44 per cent – of Canadian women report having been subjected to some form of IPV and are disproportionately the victims of the most severe forms of abuse.

This is a widespread public health emergency that needs to be declared an epidemic.

We need to call out the blatant lie being pushed by the Trump administration—that Elon’s staffers have only “read-only” access. It has been confirmed across departments that they have “administrative” access to computer systems.

Received a letter from POTUS today purporting to remove me as Commissioner and Chair of the FEC. There's a legal way to replace FEC commissioners-this isn't it. I've been so fortunate to serve the American people and stir up some good trouble along the way. That's not changing anytime soon.

White, non-Hispanic men - the only group Trump seems to care about - only make up something like 2/5ths of the US military (women are ~15%, non-white non-hispanic people are about 50%) The numbers get worse when you exclude LGBT, religions minorities, etc that Trump hates as well.

I would have voted to subpoena Elon Musk. They called a procedural vote without notice. I like 8 others didn’t make it on time. Musk’s attacks on our institutions are unconstitutional. He should be subpoenaed and answer to our committee. They need to call the vote again with notice.

Weird how not a single one of the newspapers and magazines that have been breathlessly churning out "cancel culture" thinkpieces for the past four years have managed to use the word "censorship" at all to describe the most rapid and comprehensive campaign of mass-censorship in recent US history.

Auschwitz Memorial @auschwitzmemorial.bsky.social · 27/01/2025
Auschwitz was at the end of a long process. It did not start from gas chambers. This hatred was gradually developed by humans. From ideas, words, stereotypes & prejudice through legal exclusion, dehumanization & escalating violence... to systematic and industrial murder. Auschwitz took time.
A bird's-eye view of a former Auschwitz II-Birkenau camp showing a wide dirt pathway flanked by parallel rows of barbed-wire fences. Groups of visitors walk along the path, surrounded by the remnants of brick structures and barracks, now reduced to foundations. Green grass contrasts with the somber history of the site, as the path leads toward a guard tower in the distance.
