@hollyanderson.bsky.social FYI my wife and I will match the donation total to TransVisible Montana for Q1 2026… just in case that would spur any on-the-fence folks to purchase merch

It’s not even “are these people racist?” It’s “do these people have any beliefs at all besides white supremacy?”
Like, this an actual post from an actual government social media account, posted in the last hour.

Macedo and Lee misrepresent what actually happened during the pandemic and are unable to confront Covid's actual toll, presumably because it undermines their premise. A longer take here w/my colleague Greg Gibson:

Revisionism in the Wake of Covid
A dialogue confronting the premise of revisionist efforts to diminish the pandemic's severity and dismantle public health institutions.

In 2021 I dressed in full PPE and held my phone to an intubated 45 year old man's ear while his daughter said goodbye to him.

I truly don't believe in hell but sometimes I wish I did.
This is genuinely horrifying. Fact-free far-right agitprop given accolades by credible media across the political spectrum.
Congratulations to Stephen Macedo & Frances Lee, whose book In Covid's Wake has been recognized as:

⭐ A @newyorker.com Best Book of the Year
⭐ An @economist.com Book of the Year
⭐ A @wsj.com Best Book of the Year

Ezra Klein even like "well we can agree 'birth tourism' is a problem," and no, I cannot. My group texts are about sports and kids.

Just like anti-vaxers, people who dislike immigrants are a weird terrible fringe group and we should treat them like the weird terrible fringe group they are.

Immigrants are a social good, anti-immigrant propaganda is basically all lies, and any approach to the "problem" that doesn't start form those two points is worthless

Someone just asked me if I think Bill is doing this because he’s developed a sophisticated palate for existential despair and “middle-tier ACC teams have developed a fine vintage, to be fair”

Which I think is now my canonical answer

You can’t be justifying your own pessimism about other Americans like this when we’ve got polling data that says every time a spotlight gets shined on deportation or detention, the polling for Trump on that issue takes a huge hit.

The repression of trans people is not, by and large, a grassroots outpouring of hatred from the American people. It's something that's been carefully planted and tended over years by a handful of media people and their pet reporters.
Heightened Scrutiny, a very good doc about the Supreme Court case that was just ruled on, does an impeccable and infuriating job laying out just how culpable the NYT and Atlantic are for the nation’s transphobia www.avclub.com/sundance-202...

We've seen this from anti-vaxxers and other conspiracy movements for years: Act like frothing-at-the-mouth psychos and then accuse scientists of conspiracy for behaving like they're being targeted by frothing-at-the-mouth psychos.

wow I wonder if the cops who lied about the sitting senator even though everything they did was on tape are also being less than honest about the presence of violent agitators at the protests in los angeles. they might even not have told the entire truth about other protests
