The failure of the “blue no matter who” crowd to rally behind Mamdani really just lays the reality of that position bare, doesn’t it?

I keep seeing supposedly progressive podcasts saying “the problem is that people feel like they just can’t talk about these issues” while these issues are frequently the *only* thing that people are talking about 😩

Am struggling with the idea that people like me somehow don't understand the legitimate concerns of people who attended the Tommy Robinson march. I literally had National Front fliers through my letterbox in my childhood in Greater London and I went to school and university with actual fascists.

Ireland’s influence in non-proliferation far outweighs our size and it’s because of our neutrality. It’s maybe the most important thing we do on the world stage and our media basically never talks about it. So of course he wants us to step back, it makes it easier to argue against neutrality

Zohran picked 「卓蘭」("excellent orchid") for his first name and「夸梅」("brilliant plum") for his middle name.

The orchid and the plum are among "The Four Noble Ones" in traditional Chinese art, the former symbolizing an indifference to fame and fortune, the latter an indomitable, incorruptible spirit.

I feel one million years old here, but we do actually have a pretty reliable way of knowing what news is true. Did a real newspaper publish it? Then probably yes. Can’t find it in a real newspaper? Maybe not.

This pattern speaks so deeply to the immaturity of most social justice ethics, in that the unspoken reason for “listen to the marginalized” is “because it will let you be right” rather than “because they deserve to be heard and usually aren’t.”

It’s about humanization, not winning an argument.

Talia "Estro Junkies" Bhatt ♀︎♀︎ @taliabhatt.itch.io · 1d

People want identity shortcuts for "who is worth listening to" and "which ideas are correct" and I implore you all to abandon that impulse, because that's not the world we live in.

Listen to the marginalized because our voices are erased, but also... think. Judge by word and deed.
