In 2022 I started tracking changes in how news outlets were describing trans people, and set up a bot to record every article pushed to the Google News index based on a handful of search phrases, including “biological sex” in both the US and UK. The amount in 2023 alone was absolutely staggering.

One thing is very clear about the standard Western liberal politician from this era: they really value the fascist perspective and believe that it's important to have as part of the political system, while they resent anything to their left and want to eradicate it.
Gavin Newsom has never had a homeless, a working unhoused, or an affordable housing advocate on his podcast despite governing California.

So yeah I think it’s weird that he’s entertained & platformed multiple fascists while grinning, nodding & relenting to their easily defeatable talking points.

BEN: one of the major failings of the dem party last election is the unwillingness to say whether it's true or untrue a boy can become a girl
GAV: yeah

BEN: can you say a boy is not a girl?
GAV: i uh- and- you know- [laughs] we can go down- a year ago i was w/ charlie having this conversation

If someone is willing to toss away her Nobel Peace Prize to get closer to her real goal of doing a mafia bust-out against her own country on behalf of international finance capital, I think that's revealing of how much they actually value 'peace' and the values these prizes actually exist to reward.
Not to lib out too hard but remember when the war on woke also included getting rid of participation trophies

One of the things about people showing up to protest for the first time, that many, many armchair theorists don't grasp, is the effect of seeing what happens with your own eyes, then seeing how media covers it, and what is said ABOUT YOU by media and political personalities/office holders.

We need to make this more explicit: The violence and civil collapse we're now seeing in Minnesota is by design. It's exactly what Trump and Stephen Miller want. MAGA is *all about* deliberately unleashing ethnic hatreds and violent antagonisms among Americans.

This is the universe these folks have built, one where all that matters is how to convince “moderate” white Americans and nothing else. Nothing about morality, fighting for others, etc.

They frame it as smart, but ironically it’s a lesson in how to constantly lose a messaging battle.
i don't really give a shit if consultants think being anti-ICE is "good messaging" or whatever when people are actively being shot, beat, gassed and jailed.

Gently: I think the sweet little leftist fiction that right-wing politics are the result of epistemic gaps---that you can just newsletter and educate and evangelize your way to leftism---is dead.

Consider: many people want to hurt others. Want to feel superior. Want to inflict pain on the lesser.

this completely horrifying. ICE is a domestic occupying threat against us all
21-year-old activist injured by ICE:

I will be blind for life. I have fractures in my skull that they can't fix. They pulled a piece of plastic the size of a nickel out of my eye. I had shards of metal, glass, and plastic behind my eye and in my skull. They said it was a miracle I survived.

Too often schools for "us" and schools for "them" is exactly what we have. We've been trending backwards on integration for most of my life. This betrays the racist belief that too many policy makers hold- that our disparities are rooted in individual failing.

🚨WHOA. The El Paso Medical Examiner says it will rule the death of a 55-year-old Cuban man at ICE's "Camp East Montana" tent camp as a homicide.

He was allegedly choked to death by a guard during a "struggle" after he refused to enter a housing unit without his medications.

Even though the author of this column is a woman, I categorise this column alongside the utterance of the man that murdered Good: they both hate a particular type of women (left-wing, queer, etc.) and want to see them subjugated, dead, institutionalised and pathologised, barefoot, in the kitchen

1. In the aftermath of oral arguments at SCOTUS, the Trump Administration has sent out its largest federal investigation campaign yet against schools across the US with trans supportive policies.

Some, like Champlain Valley in Vermont, are fighting back.

"I know gassing babies isn't ideal, but it's important that you remain civil."

Part of what makes this administration so sure of its choices and so easy with its abuses is that it knows Democrats will lie down for it, and softly rebuke their own voters for not taking abuse with greater equanimity.

“Hypernormalization describes a state where a false, simplified, or surreal version of reality becomes so accepted as normal that people lose the ability or will to challenge it, even when aware of its untruth, often due to systemic inertia or lack of alternatives.”

I have become obsessed with civil war history for a lot of reasons but, as I have mentioned before, a big lesson was how the liberal faction of the republican party negotiated themselves out of power, in large part, because of their own personal interest in “getting back to business as usual”
The durability of this particular void is honestly fascinating from a purely sociological perspective.
