They’re literally pushing out Black women to make sure they can try to permanently staff the federal government with white supremacists.

It's budget season in NYC, and despite promises to commit .5% to NYC libraries, Mamdani has instead proposed cuts. The budget is now with the City Council, which will counter-propose--so it's time to contact your council member. @nycplan.org has all the info you need: nycplan.org

Let’s talk about Graham Platner’s Big Lie, finally. In 2009, at the height of the Gulf War, the Marines barred him from active duty. Platner claims it was his forearm tattoos. But his one forbidden tattoo was the Nazi symbol on his chest. He knew - and he left the Marines rather than give it up. 1/

EXCLUSIVE: At more than 30 installations, U.S. commanders told troops the war on Iran is a Christian war.

The Military Religious Freedom Foundation has been β€œinundated” with more than 110 complaints.

One NCO said they were told the U.S. war is to bring about Armageddon and the return of Jesus…

Seriously, get off of X. Don't post there and don't spend time there. You will get exposed to propaganda and bullshit that will nestle into the corners of your brain EVEN IF YOU KNOW IT'S BULLSHIT. Stay away.

Why Attack Iran? Our Authoritarianism and Our Corruption

How to understand war with Iran? We must get away from propaganda. Facts suggest two interpretive frameworks: a foreign war as a mechanism to destroy democracy at home; and a foreign war as an element of personal corruption by the president of the United States.

CW: transphobia.

See, this is why it can be painful to know too much history.🫀

This post implies that what is happening in Kansas is *similar* to what the nazis did.

But it's not just similar. It's *identical*.

In 1933, nazis revoked trans people's documents. Before 1938.

Paragraph 175 and 183.

As far as the Supreme Court is concerned, "lost mail" and "intentionally withheld mail" are basically the same thing for sovereign immunity purposes under the Federal Tort Claims Act

So if racists won't deliver your mail, you can't sue the govt for FTCA damages

And this is why every β€œmoderateβ€œ Democrat is in essence really a moderate authoritarian. They will continue to invest in a broken system as long as the rich and the white are at the top of the pyramid.

The only way out is revolutionary change.

It's frustrating, since he can be such a good communicator and a pleasure to read. But I think this piece does a lot more harm than good

A real problem w/AI convos today is that they don't specify the stage of company under discussion (idea vs startup vs established vs behemoth) or the type and sector of company.Β Paul's piece fails to specify these things, to the point that his uses of "software" and "app" aren't meaningful

This is the political movement that convinced a non-trivial amount of Americans that they were going to β€œprotect women’s sports.”

As powerful people fall, I hope the brave Epstein survivors are feeling some measure of relief

I also hope Trump in particular is experiencing real fear
