It’s the racism. We reelected orange , had a pretty pathetic integration of our understanding of racism as a security risk, and have let anti Palestinian racism, combined with anti Blackness and xenophobia is FACTUALLY the basis of Heritage Not be part of our anti surveillance discussions

I simply don't understand how you can dismiss this major question so flippantly. As an editor you should be working with and helping your creators out as much as possible to create a positive and healthy environment for expression. Supporting literal theft is antithetical to that. 1/

DEVELOPING: ICE agents in Los Angeles are nothing but state-sanctioned thugs. One sprinted from behind a fence, tackled a protester, and the pack unloaded on bystanders with “less lethal” rounds. Then they dragged him across 4 lanes of traffic like prey. This is organized brutality.

Donald Trump has now been president twice and has misused government communications on purpose both times (including email) to intentionally and illegally circumvent record keeping laws and it got maybe 1/1000th as much coverage as Clinton’s email, which was not even against the rules at the time.

As I write this I’m driving back to Jersey from visiting Gettysburg for the first time and I couldn’t help but to think this very thing while touring the battlefields. White supremacy nearly paved the way for a sovereign Confederate States of America. There weren’t enough consequences for treason.

This ‘blue states closed schools too long’ narrative is becoming increasingly entrenched in the Polite Center but it’s arguable at best. Republican states had far more deaths during COVID and their students have roughly comparable learning loss.

“One of my running themes of media criticism in the Trump era has been that the national media knows all-too-well how to provide wall-to-wall coverage and elevate something from a ‘news story’ to a ‘news event.’ (Think Hunter Biden or Hillary’s emails!)”

If you say 'heteronormative' or 'unhoused person' or 'food insecurity' you're basically talking gibberish and nobody can understand you but if you say you can see inflammation in children at the airport and that vaccines lower IQ or that germs are a myth you get to fire all the scientists.

Many of us are still able to whine in public without fear of immediate reprisals. Many of us still have local power over our communities that is likely to be contested in somewhat fair elections. And we all have more power to communicate & connect—despite the billionaires—than any humans before us.

Eugenics and the elimination of “weakness” is very literally at the core of every fascist regime that has ever existed. The Nazis were famous anti-science and the very first people they imprisoned were the disabled and chronically ill. This is absolutely classic fascism.
