Yeah, slavery is substantially watered down in schools bc they don't like teaching kids about an entire society based on mass rape.
slavery is one of the rare things historically where the more you learn about it the more you realize your initial assessment was correct and it was in fact one of the most evil things ever to occur

Sorry but my favorite example of this was making the brain surgeon head of HUD. Just an all timer giveaway
They think of “urban” as synonymous with Black and that explains a good deal of the invalidation of urban spaces as “real America”

ICE has completely broken our social contract.
They manipulate social trust and are creating lasting damage to our most basic social foundations

CCTV footage appears to show DHS agents posing as people having car trouble in order to lure a target out of his house before arresting them. The target comes out and starts helping them before 3 vehicles surround the scene. The car "experiencing" trouble then drives off with them.

Sort of gives away the lie that they're arresting hardened criminals who are drags on society when they're setting up traps to lure in Good Samaritans

Ryan Grim joking around on Twitter about “the Ukraine” and how ridiculous caring about it was, and how pathetic Dem war mongering over something that obviously wasn’t going to happen was, as I was flying back to DC after having been evacuated from Kyiv is seared in my brain.
Picking the clip where she mentions Russian imperialism as proof of "liberal interventionism" certainly is a choice
AOC's foreign policy has long held a strand of liberal interventionism, probably more JFK than Obama

i think this is what drives me nuts. people talk about how, say, the UN was founded by "starry eyed idealists" who didn't understand "reality." the truth is that the UN was founded by those who had just fought and *won* the bloodiest war in human history.

We bought Article II of the United Nations Charter with the blood of a hundred million human beings, and less than a century later, it's being sold for nothing by people who don't even understand what they're doing.

Again, the unifying 🧵 about this WH’s foreign policy is not realism or neo-royalism. It’s the extension of sexual assault/predation to IR. If they think you’re their macho pal, they’ll respect your sovereignty. If they don’t, they’ll try to violate you & humiliate you. Epstein-ism, if you like.
One of the most distinctive aspects of this WH’s foreign policy is to combine an extremely ecumenical Westphalianism about broad regime type (which I’m fine with TBF) with an extremely precise set of ideological preferences about who should win elections in the Western Hemisphere & Western Europe.

Had an IC class where I read a bunch of interviews with former warlord/terrorist recruits and it was very interesting how many of them were using ideology as a vehicle for violence instead of using violence to pursue an ideology. "Excitement" was one of the main reasons a lot of them joined!
Yes. This is it. Some people believe their politics; other people adopt politics as an excuse to hurt other people for fun and tell themselves it’s for a good cause and they can’t be blamed.
The internet has let all the people in the latter group find each other and make better rationalizations.

I often think the real ideological divide online is not really ideology by whether politics exists as a permission structure for behaviour or not
