The left isn’t weak because of infighting. The left is weak because every facet of our society and economy is geared to the benefit of fascism and white supremacy and it is the challenge of multiple lifetimes to dismantle all of that.

The mortality reviews that ICE published late last week show that medical neglect is widespread in Trump's concentration camps — something immigrants, advocates and attorneys have said for years, and which ICE routinely denies. New from me in @prospect.org.

i worry that men think being A Good Guy is dramatically and heroically intervening on behalf of an endangered woman and then being publicly rewarded on a grand scale when actually being A Good Guy is just usually saying, “hey man that’s not funny” or “wow that’s fucked up” and there is no reward

This is genuinely disinformation. Vaccines are great are reducing severity, they do not greatly reduce your risk of getting sick, and even that effect wanes within a few months. Masking with n95s or kn95s and cleaning the air are the best protections against getting sick.

Nobody's Fool 🧵🦋☀️ #art
a digital drawing of Dolly Parton as the tarot card "the fool", based on the song Dumb Blonde. Instead of blithely walking toward the edge of the cliff, she walks away from it, her little dog Crackerjack at her feet. She holds a multi-colored bindle over her shoulder, with a spook of thread poking out, leading to the needle held aloft in her hand. She wears a purple-blue jumpsuit with a sheer neckline and voluminous sleeves. The whole suit is bedazzled and there is a scene of Icarus falling from the heavens into the sea on her lower half. The border is pink, with a repeating pattern of butterflies, sparkly crying eyes, rhinestones, hands with crossed fingers, flowers, broken hearts, and pocket watches.

I also can't tell the full story yet, but when Gloria Steinem was a co-chair of the Women's March, language supporting sex workers vanished from the march platform—but it was put back. Between the lines: sex workers won that fight, over Gloria's objections. The story as I could report it:
