This week, I withdrew from a speaking engagement at a public university because they sent me a list of prohibited “words & concepts.” I will not humor this censorship. It does a disservice to the stories I’m discussing & the audience, who deserve unfettered access to information & conversation.

I've griped about this before, but the liberal education establishment is very bad in many ways! unfortunately the plausible alternative is people who want to burn public education to the ground and put kids in megachurch clickfarms

something I've noticed with right wingers is that they don't really understand like what tradeoffs *are* they just kind of generally fetishize the aesthetic of Hard Men, Hard Choices, so we get idiot playacting at Hard Choices like committing war crimes to stop .000000000004% of illegal drugs
The older I get, the more my politics mature from childish, naïve beliefs like "the world is complicated and leaders have to make hard decisions" to more serious, adult principles like "hurting people is bad and helping people is good."

there were excesses to woke 1, but the primary reason these people won’t stop crowing about censorship it is that there was a brief moment where being a vicious public asshole bore real social consequences
Our local news recently reported that a nonprofit is collecting toys for kids whose parents were deported. FB commenters were overwhelmingly negative. Many suggested ICE raid the toy drive and arrest the kids, too.
I hate that I’m now aware of how much of our country craves this sort of cruelty.

any publication that calls raping teen and preteen girls "access" is not whatever good or decent thing it was pretending to be
Noam Chomsky’s emails to Jeffrey Epstein display none of the fawning chatter found from, say, Larry Summers. And he does not appear to have been co-opted by whatever access Epstein provided.

What the Noam Chomsky–Jeffrey Epstein E-mails Tell Us
Chomsky has often suffered fools, knaves, and criminals too lightly. Epstein was one of them. But that doesn’t mean Chomsky was part of the “Epstein class.”

Everyone likes to shit on The West Wing, which is fair given the current situation.
But I gotta tell ya. I just watched the pilot and that script is tight as the dickens. And I defy you to identify a better show about politics on network TV since.
