@nytimes.com article by @ellenbarry.bsky.social, In Utah, Trump’s Vision for Homelessness Begins to Take Shape, is a masterclass in the language of liberal complicity. The sanitized commitment to procedural neutrality does not achieve objectivity; it performs the sick act of ideological laundering.

Liberals reject history of global violence and extraction not because they have evaluated the evidence, but because a gatekeeper at The New Yorker assured them it was intellectually fashionable to do so. The ruling class doesn't always maintain hegemony by the truncheon but sometimes with the smirk.
I haven't read the book, but reheated Sombartism does not sound particularly delectable.

Nov 2025 @rikiwilchins.bsky.social -- Reps privately push ban on trans care in ACA/Obamacare as part of moving any subsidy deal forward. It was stripped from the last ACA deal. This one would hurt perhaps 500k trans ppl among the 20m who need Obamacare subsidies. Even blue states would be impacted.
Republicans Privately Pushing Anti-Trans Funding Ban For ACA Subsidy Deal After Shutdown Compromise
The proposal, which was first detailed in the Wall Street Journal, could harm transgender people even in blue states if it becomes part of the negotiated deal.

While ICE abductions, often in broad daylight, have provoked fear and outrage, the escalation is also unleashing a less visible form of economic treachery on Chicago’s immigrant working class: wage theft, lost income, work speedups, and economic slumps that spread through neighborhoods. My latest.

Capitalism requires that we (working class people) "earn a living", which implies that we actually don't deserve to live unless we "earn" it by letting our surplus values be exploited by the capitalist ruling class. And this is all while having more than enough food, housing, etc., for everyone!

If shaking hands and laughing with a racist who is responsible for leading fascist goon squads, black bagging, and disappearing Americans isn't a betrayal, then I don't know what could possibly constitute a betrayal.

This is the person celebrating genocide with a BS Thanksgiving celebration at ICE. Indigenous families are being torn apart, Indigenous activists severely abused at ICE. I cant believe how disrespectful and hurtful white activists are and those who think like them. Shut this down.

Mamdani’s handshake with a fascist like Trump proves that the Electoral Left is simply the left wing of the existing system. They share the same police, borders, and goal, that being the preservation of the State and to serve Capital. Abandon hope in the ballot because it will always betray you.
The Mamdani-Trump Pact and the bankrupt politics of the upper middle class pseudo-left
The immediate political consequence of Mamdani’s visit will be to confuse and disorient the very people who brought him to office.

JD Vance and Peter Thiel are running a sustained operation out of the White House designed to acquire Greenland, either voluntarily or by force. Thiel has laid out plans for what he intends to do with the island nation in past writings. It doesn't entail the consent of the Greenlanders for anything.

Geo Group runs the ICE cells in Portland, Oregon and the ICE prison in Tacoma. It is making me worried, not one Oregon politician speaks about Geo-Group and their abuse on US citizens and ICE prisoners inside the ICE processing center as well as during chained transport from Portland to Tacoma.

In Monrovia, California, protesters are purchasing 17¢ ICE scrapers from Home Depot and immediately returning them to create long lines and slow down the entire store. Their aim is to disrupt sales and convey a message opposing ICE raids occurring in their neighborhood.

thinking about how my parents escaped vietnam, where the CIA destabilized my family's home country by spreading misinformation, and they landed in the united states, which is now getting destabilized bc someone in vietnam is spreading misinformation
Twitter pays people based on engagement (views, retweets, comments, etc). It appears that many MAGA accounts are based abroad and they use AI technology to generate low-effort rage bait.

My guess is that this will get worse as AI tech improves. For instance, fake videos of minorities doing crime.
