I’m speaking for mine. We are more than a nation of immigrants and indigenous people.

The narrative is what I'm objecting to. I appreciate her story. That said: "we are a nation of immigrants that built America" negates the reality of people who were forced migrants enslaved in labor camps. That is not immigration. We too built America.

People who came here via slave ships and auction blocks were forced migrants. Our history and contributions should not be erased in this otherwise good analysis.

Stacey said she broke up with TJ after rewatching film and family feedback. She also said that he is one of the finest people she knows. She said he was her best friend until she confirmed he she paid him. Yes TJ is obviously not trustworthy, he admitted he's a paid liar. She's also insincere.

It’s a great piece about a woman sacrificing the good of the whole for narrow self-interest. As long as she got free IVF, no one else would matter. Why should any one else care about her regrets?

We don't need the military on Trump's side.

Common sense, populism, and reactionary politics on Twitter: An analysis of populist far-right common sense narratives between 2008 and 2022 - George Newth, Alessio Scopelliti, 2023 Far-right parties often depict their ideas as β€˜common sense’ and as self-evident, natural, just, and proper. This article examines the extent to which there is ...

Don't underestimate the danger of Trump saying its Just Common Sense. This is and racist, fascistic framing that is surely a dog whistle to other MAGAts.

The guy from The Apprentice, who hired a Fox weekend host to run the Pentagon and a cast member from the Real World to run the FAA (the two agencies associated with the incident) says the real cause of a deadly plain crash is DEI.

This was predictable. I understood his intent before this announcement. When you refer to people as β€œillegals” surely you believe they are committing a crime.

Kendrick Lamar beat Drake in a rap battle so thoroughly that Drake called the police.

A government run by billionaires will never be for the people.

I agree with this point, I’m just not sure why Michigan is not included in the states with local elections.

Detroit, Michigan has municipal elections in 2025. What is meant by local and how is this information gathered?

I love the way NYT and other media waited until AFTER the election to point this out. Imagine a debate question about the impact of mass deportation on the economy, citing these experts.

Trump told us who he was. Many supporters are struggling to believe him.

No flouride in water? No more vaccines?
