This is literally what they always do. RFK Jr's organization got the MMR banned in Samoa, 81 children died and then he sent a letter to the prime minister that the kids died of "vaccine strain" measles.

Having Lorne Michaels be producer of SNL in 2026 is like if they had hired someone to produce it in 1975 whose main claim to fame was a hit radio comedy from 1928.

if I could give one piece of advice to newly transitioning trans people, I wouldn't make it about choosing a name or how to present yourself I would say: don't treat life like something that happens to you don't treat the world like content you consume make things happen create your life

...Assumption #4 has been driving me batshit, yet no one seems to realize it: if you're worried trans ppl might potentially harm your Dem candidate's chances, then YOUR CANDIDATE MADE A BAD DECISION! so why not join us in trying to get them to reverse position? juliaserano.medium.com/on-democrats...
screenshot from linked-to essay that reads:
Assumption #4: The elephant in the room that no one is talking about
There is a striking disconnect between Talarico, Turek, et al. — who have clearly made a political calculation that abandoning trans rights will help them more than it will hurt them in this election — and the many cisgender liberals I’ve encountered online who are absolutely freaking out over the possibility that trans people’s critiques and protests will ultimately tank said candidates.
Both of these things cannot simultaneously be true!
If you think your favorite candidate enacted the correct political strategy, then there is no reason to berate trans people for protesting it, as those protests should already be baked into your candidate’s calculations. So why are you berating trans people then? (Unless, of course, you enjoy berating trans people just for the sake of it.)
Alternatively, if you think trans people *are* capable of tanking your favorite candidate via our criticisms and protests, doesn’t that imply that your candidate (and their consultants and strategists) totally fucked up in their political calculations here? And if they did fuck up, shouldn’t you be reaching out and complaining to *them* (rather than berating trans people), in the hope that they might reverse their bad decision?

this is something I've been wondering too. while I have no evidence of coordination, it's definitely suspicious that so many Dem candidates not only waited until after the primaries to come out with anti-trans positions, but all did so within a week of each other

I remember listening to Chris Hayes' podcast at the start of Trump II and his guest talking about how the Brazilian movement that defeated Bolsonaro had a saying "We're not letting go of anyone's hands." Way too many people think it's okay to let go of some peoples' hands.

If US politics were really democratic then one party would adopt a workers platform and win a permanent majority by regulating capitalism, but this only happened for a brief period under FDR when capital was weak and ever since both parties have been tools of the rich to defend neoliberalism.

Okay so @defector.com has had an odd glitch since the site redesign a couple of weeks back where the wrong photo and headline are often put together on the main page and I was going to ask them about fixing it but this just happened and as far as I'm concerned they have to leave it as is.
Screenshot for a Defector podcast episode with the headline "Consider the Emotional Lives of Scallops" only the accompanying photo is a white gormless stubbled red-headed UK singer of recent notoriety giving a flat smile to the camera while wearing a washed out peach top as beige as he is against a flat background. So, actually, probably a scallop anyway.
