If you’ve ever wondered why crime is higher in majority-Black, Democrat-controlled cities, you can just look at the data.
Spoiler alert: it’s not.

In the 2010s, this country's elites were thrown onto social platforms with everyone else and could finally read what we all think about them and it caused them so much psychic damage that they decided to destroy both the internet and democracy to make sure nothing like it ever happened again.
If this is what it took for you to be pushed into fascism you were probably already there

Some people may be surprised by this outcome, but as a native Wisconsinite, I’m not. We aren’t the kind of people who’ll allow ourselves to be bought and sold by billionaires.
Elon should stop trying to buy democracy & find a different way to crash out during his midlife crisis.

The danger women face after getting pregnant in the U.S. needs to produce a much higher level of outrage than is currently happening.

The game is rigged. Algorithms are being deployed to suppress our voices and consolidate power. Join us for a training with Dr. Heather Woods and Dr. Leslie Hahner, who will discuss how platforms shape power dynamics online and how we can outsmart them. Register here: bit.ly/3DW9I3m

$33 million and counting. That’s what Elon and company are spending to try to buy a Wisconsin Supreme Court seat.
We are the solution. No one’s coming to save us. We have to mobilize and save ourselves.

In other words, the right has successfully recruited too many people into the Oppression Olympics. And we continue to lose ground on the mass understanding of intersectionality.
The left keeps getting identity politics wrong – and the right is benefiting from that | Ash Sarkar
Instead of liberation, we’ve ended up with competitive grievance, weaponised victimhood, and a focus on ‘I’ not ‘us’, says author and activist Ash Sarkar

Joke’s on them. We’re not afraid, and have they not reviewed history??? (Clearly not) We will thrive no matter what horrid conditions they throw at us. But unlike them, we learn from history. We’re not going back. 👋🏽💋

Eventually, even ppl who voted for Trump and his billionaire backers’ disdain for the poor, the workers, and the down on their luck will realize it included them too.
When this happens, the smart and empathetic thing to do is to help them. Resist the urge to participate in the schadenfreude.

i think this is basically what has happened a big chunk of the american pundit class
One of my best friends is from a sleepy, wealthy small town in the south-west of Germany. He said, so many of my parents’ neighbours are rich and bored, with little to complain about, and they’ve radicalised themselves at dinner parties and online. In their aimlessness, they’ve bonded over hate.
This isn’t some rant saying “Germany has learned nothing from its past” - the reality is more subtle than that. Middle-class Germans live and travel with an incredible amount of ease and comfort, and they just got…sleepy. Many of them dismissed the far-right’s rage as just another set of complaints.
