CBS turned their news operation into propaganda, kicked Colbert off the air for making too much trouble, and all that just to have Charles Barkley go on the air on one of their most-watched telecasts of the year and say this lmao

César Chavez accused of sexual abuse, grooming young girls (and co-organizer Dolores Huerta). United Farm Workers said in a statement they will not celebrate César Chavez day. A statue of him at Fresno State (CA) has been covered in a black shroud. www.nytimes.com/2026/03/18/u...

So much love and solidarity to Ana Murguia, Debra Rojas, Dolores Huerta, and every other survivor. Chavez was just a man; women like them, then and now, are the true heroes of the farmworkers’ movement.

This might be controversial but even the braindead use case of AI as a parlor trick for you and your erudite friends to hyuck and gee whiz over in between doing the Wordle and overnighting dongles on Amazon is miserable and corrosive to your humanity

Problems have solutions. Contradictions do not. They are permanent points of tension that can only be managed within the system in which they are embedded. They only go away when the system as a whole disappears. www.newstatesman.com/ideas/2026/0...

To reject the US as a fundamentally American country with a deep shared history and commonality with the rest of the Americas, including that Spanish has long been our de facto national second language, is on a deep level anti-American. It's hating actual American culture and history and tradition.

Bernie Sanders: "We need to be thinking seriously about a moratorium on data centers. You gotta slow this process down. It's not good enough for the oligarchs to tell us 'you adapt.' Are they gonna guarantee healthcare to all people? What are they gonna do when there are no jobs? Make housing free?"
