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.

To gauge how it’s “working,” one would have to be clear on what the actual work is, which is not helping to educate children but rather to imbed these systems in a way that they cannot be removed, establish them as a source of truth, and destabilize labor.

Oh and it also includes the Golan Heights, a region of Syria that the IDF is illegally occupying. To say nothing of the gross oversimplification of "Jews are from..." This and many other issues are addressed in a collective letter from Northwestern grad students: docs.google.com/document/d/1...

This is one of the most explicit examples you'll ever see of "the people who annoy me the most, personally, also happen to be the nation's biggest political problem." The quintessential reactionary centrist maneuver.

Dude wearing camo shirt and “ICE” snapback goes on racist rant in the checkout line, then stabs the legally-blind Christian man who confronts him. This is my town. I bought some motor oil in that very checkout line earlier that morning. There’s a great America in this story, & it’s not in camo.

IMO this is a reminder that low-information voters - and small business owners - skew right-wing because US conservatives have rejected knowledge, expertise, and facts in favor of "beliefs."

Concerned that we are losing the necessary ratio. 15% of teachers/faculty should be irretrievably strange eccentrics. Every learning experience should have some element where in later life you can reflect with former classmates about how bizarre at least one (1) class per year was.

It's a cold case. The syllabus contains a full, detailed confession, but no one noticed for five years ... until it was sent to the provost for review under the new state-mandated gen ed assessment process. It passed the initial review phase because the learning outcomes are fine.
