Trying to maintain a thread of realistic optimism. The anti-intellectualism, anti-science, ignorance, antipathy, sexism, racism, & corporate/authoritarian-bootlicking in my country terrifies me. And it's getting so much worse. Facts. Art. Music. Empathy.

When I see a politician who stands up for trans rights, even though I am a cis white man, I know that is a politician who will stand up for the most oppressed group in America, and therefore will stand up for everyone, trans, gay, straight, Black, Latin, Asian, anyone.

I wrote a little about some of the little details you might have missed in this video and why it hit me so hard as a trans person this morning:

Trump literally told rally attendees to rough up a dissenter in the audience. LEO did fuck all.

Aside from the crappy writing, it's weird when libertarian "Reason" is actually sort of demonstrating reason…

This isn't about being "silent". There's no reason for you to be defensive and to center yourself in other people's threads. If you don't want to be lumped into "annoying atheists", try not to be annoying.

I'm sick of walking on eggshells for religion myself, but I don't need to throw eggs.

Hypocrisy and self-interest are probably the only actual "policies" any republicans in "leadership" hold to.

Are you implying that believing in conspiracy theories requires being a member of a cult? That is not a requirement of conspiracy theory belief. Note that I've not said anything about YOU. I have commented about what has been SAID here, not about WHO has said it.

Only the worst humans *pursue* working for Trump. Narcissists do not attract ethical, credible, or competent people. They attract more of the same: Opportunists looking to take advantage of/exploit failures and chaos.

It's bad enough when average people align w/"the bad guys", like Star Wars fans who think "the Sith are cool", w/Imperial flag/logo on their cars, etc… But when people w/connections & wealth do this, it's dangerous to civilization. I tried to do a search about this phenomenon; mostly crap came up.

His body language & speech: He looks embarrassed. Why? Talking about sex is hard for so many people, and when you bring them a challenge to something they’ve conditioned themselves is a CERTAINTY, they get uncomfortable; embarrassed by the nuance of reality, because they’re behind on grasping it.

There’s evidence that religion is a human behavioral pattern that appears no matter the people or culture. In other words, something we’ve a tendency to create due to neurology. It’s not inherently evil, but it is almost invariably used by people with power as a tool to control others.

"Depends on who you ask" framing is one of the most grating tics in modern political journalism. Objective reality exists and your job is to describe it.

A classic case of irresponsible both-sidesism from the NYT. The story is that Trump and MAGA propagandists are lying about Portland to incite a conflict, not that there are different views of the matter.

Images of women generated by this tech are formed by a biased model. The source material is likely to comprise far more photos of models/celebrities than average people.

Yeah, garbage tools that make garbage content easier for lazy assholes who don’t want to do the work required even to push their lazy grifting bullshit when they literally sit at the top of the government.
