"We have to sign on to this technology or else we'll be left behind" is something I keep hearing, but where are we being left??? Where is everyone else going?? Is it the place where all the 3D TVs and wifi-enabled toasters went? Is it literal dystopia? This argument is meaningless

Black women are the most educated demographic in America. More degrees per capita than any other group, including white men and white women. And still, they’re among the most underpaid. More educated, less paid. Overqualified, underestimated, and undervalued. Every time. (1 of 3)

“The New York Times collaborated with a white nationalist eugenicist hacker and agreed to keep his identity a secret to publish a Zohran Mamdani hit piece” is a way bigger story than “18 year old Zohran Mamdani ticked ‘African American’ on his Columbia application because he was a citizen of Uganda”

From this year "Properties worth under $300,000 per unit face an Edtimated Tax Rate three times higher than those worth over $1 million. Predominantly Black neighborhoods in NYC pay higher property tax rates than wealthier, whiter areas like Park Slope and the East Village."

Check out the NYTImes endorsement for NYC mayor in 1935...almost identical to that of the NYT against Mamdani. They hated LaGuardia, declared him inexperienced and unfit to be mayor. HIstory says he remains NYC's best mayor.
