The soul must accept guilt in order to destroy existing evil, lest it incur the greater guilt of idyllic withdrawal, of seeming to be good by putting up with wrong. -Ernst Bloch wertham.substack.com

As prices for diesel and fertilizer spike, American farmers are collateral damage in Trump's war of choice in Iran. Add his crazy and unnecessary trade war, and you have a serious crisis down on the farm. Reliable Trump supporters across the farm belt are turning away from him.

In the Netherlands, acceptance of LGBTQ+ people has dropped sharply among Dutch youth. This is part of a worldwide trend where LGBTQ+ rights are increasingly under pressure. This cartoon was published in Dutch newspaper @trouw.nl on September 25.
Cartoon showing people on the ground on all fours, using their mouths to rip a rainbow flag to shreds. Meanwhile, one person is hiding in a closet, afraid to come out.

Louisville’s jail is a death trap. These are people awaiting hearings or trials. Like so much else about our city there is no sense of urgency from the highest political level for the sort of fundamental change that needs to occur. The last person to die . . . died from dehydration.

The White House launched its state-run propaganda channel, Trump TV, in an apparent effort to copy Kim Jong Un, the brutal dictator of North Korea. If the truth is inconvenient, I guess you try to drown it out with self-aggrandizing disinformation and martial music. #Trump

With regard to the overt and jaw-dropping use of public money to manufacture and broadcast Trump politicals ads, I'm just spitballing here, but maybe, perhaps, if the U.S. Supreme Court didn't give the president blanket immunity from prosecution for crimes he wouldn't feel so comfortable criming.

Four days ago, a scientist was surprised by the news that Anthropic discovered new virus genes for making DNA. He says he’s been studying them for years—and feeding his data to Anthropic’s AI as part of his own research. Coincidence? Here’s my story. nyti.ms/3VSWayc
