The "all anti-Zionism is always and forever antisemitism" people and the "all antisemitism becomes fine if we just say it's anti-Zionism, even if we're ranting about the Talmud" people reinforce one another, even if both sides utterly fail to see it.

and - this is the key here - it is ALSO at the foundation of the resistance to that narrative insofar as that resistance is also “progressive,” I.e. relies on a progressive teleology of stages (e.g. feudalism, capitalism, socialism). Indigenous critics of the left have long seen this as well

Overcoming Judaism is the foundation of the “progressive” narrative that later pits civilization against the savage, positioning Christianity and whiteness as the apex of history. You don’t get that without antisemitism as the foundation

So they say antisemitism isn’t “structural,” which appears to be true at least insofar as average life outcomes are concerned (wealth, health, education etc). But at the level of thought, it is absolutely structuring and continues to be so.

I know we're all tired of the "they just said it out loud" shtick but it feels noteworthy that the secretary of defense is articulating the Garrison State as an explicit objective of the American christian fascist project.

I have sympathy for anyone abused within their marriage, but the remedy for that should be safety and peace, not a public platform as a racist homophobic woman who's slightly amended her views on misogyny (at least in her own case...she often won't extend the same grace to women unlike herself).

If we must have articles about tradwives finding that patriarchal white men don't make good allies, I wish they'd highlight (preferably in the headline) that these same women are viciously racist and homophobic and for the most part do not renounce those views, let alone try to make amends for them.

yet the lack of training wasn't the issue here, so why are we bringing it up.
Van Houten told NPR member station WSKG in an interview that Doe's statement was taken by "an experienced investigator" trained in sexual abuse investigations "over an extended period of time." Cornell University Police did not respond to questions about details of the length, time and place of the interview or other details of the manner of questioning before publication.

I saw this one when I was away from my kids for a Red Cross disaster relief deployment and it hit me hard. What if I could outsource my parenting to a machine so we wouldn’t miss each other? No worries, I could upload a document with my values and the machine could instill them for me!
Screenshot of text reading: “The most tech-savvy parents have built their own tools Sarah Baldeo, a cognitive neuroscientist, spent the past year traveling for work, so she built a custom GPT of herself to chat with her 15-year-old son when she's unavailable. Baldeo
tells me she programmed the chatbot with her personality, uploading
screenshots of texts between her and her
son, along with documents about her values, the family rules, and challenges she felt in parenting.”

It's eugenics, but it's also something stranger than eugenics, because, yes, chronically ill people are more susceptible to communicable disease, but it's not like anyone is immune. They are advocating to make everyone sicker. "Murder-suicide" theory of fascism as yet undefeated.

So we re-victimize people when investigating, and then when prosecuting (if prosecuting), and then we invite them to go through it again so we can feel like we're meeting the requirements for combatting rape.

Sounds very real. The US healthcare system is not merely in disarray, it is actively and purposely stacked against the actual user of healthcare. Seriously. I have been to these conferences, I've been in these boardrooms. They actively scheme how to better deny and delay providing care.

A truly heinous man has doxxed the Cornell victim on X and the comments are predictably vile. Based on countless interviews I’ve done with survivors, the trauma they are subjected to for coming forward is oftentimes even worse than the initial trauma they experienced.

Seeing people post about how unfair the “mob justice” against the Cornell rapists is doesn’t really move me when there is no justice for survivors. The system doesn’t work; it enacts further punishment on the victims. Society is even crueler. So spare me the “mob justice” rhetoric about the accused
