This is 100% correct. The people running this country right now believe that the arts are as much a liberal indoctrination mechanism as they believe academia to be. They hate anything they can't control, anything that promotes creative and independent thought.
It's hard to even talk about the crushing losses in arts funding this year while the broader context of the world is so horrifically violent. But if you look at all of this as a struggle — either FOR or AGAINST hope and humanity — it becomes clear that the arts are in fact a key part of that story.

Today on Indicator: 2025 has been a banner year for AI nudifiers. I found another 9,000 ads on Meta since my last report, bringing the total for this year to 25,000. The top 10 nudifying websites got 10 million views in October.
Nonconsensual nude generators had another banner year. What will it take to defeat them?
Deplatforming the companies, debilitating the technology, and deterring the users

For @motherjones.com, I wrote about what's at stake for chronically ill contractors and freelancers as Affordable Care Act enhanced tax credits expire.

Disabled people who work are 50 percent more likely to be self-employed than non-disabled people, meaning that people with existing health issues are at disproportionate risk of losing private health insurance for affordability reasons.

An Oregon pilot program giving cash to homeless youths sees a staggering reduction in homelessness. The program gave participants $1,000 cash payments each month for two years, and at the end of the project's first phase, 91% of participants reported being in stable housing.

Not a peep from CBS News boss Bari Weiss after Trump called CBS reporter Nancy Cordes 'stupid' at a Thurs n/c. CBS mentions the incident in this piece about Trump's repeated attacks on female reporters but Bari's MIA when it comes to standing up for Cordes.
