For way too many, liberty is just being ruled over by someone powerful from your own ethnicity. It’s what a lot of them have settled for.

It's incredible how effective transphobia is as a litmus test for SO many issues. Every time I find a new pro-surveillance tech stooge, they're transphobic. I think people need to understand how tightly the belief that the internet is turning everyone trans is bound up w mass surveillance efforts
Jonathan Haidt Promoted a Fringe Theory on Trans Youth — Assigned
The author of “The Anxiety Generation” told Margaret Hoover for PBS that young people become trans due to peer contagion effects. There is no evidence for this claim.

Trump has reclaimed America's traditional sphere of influence in the Western Hemisphere, but that does not mean he's willing to grant China or Russia spheres in their own regions.
Trump is asserting American power globally, not pulling the United States back to its own hemisphere.

Less than a decade ago, “Abolish ICE” was a fringe position. Now it’s the plurality viewpoint. The reason is clear: The more people see what ICE is and does, the more they don’t like it. New at @reason.com reason.com/2026/01/20/a...
