Donald Trump has instructed the entire FBI to prioritize finding ways to bring charges against anti-fascists and other activists. Any FBI agent who wants to advance his career now has an incentive to set up naïve kids for an entrapment case.

One of the darkest aspects of this is that the Editorial Board can be presumed to understand its audience. The level of manufactured ignorance it takes for a non-predator to respond positively to these ideas is breathtaking.
A full, official editorial today in the New York Times. Not an op-ed. The statements and images are made on behalf of the paper itself.

My (academic yet personal) thoughts on the Pretendian discourse itself.
1. Yes, identity fraud happens in Indigenous communities.
2. Involved communities have the right to decide how to address it, not outsiders.
3. Anti-Pretendianism provides cover for anti-Blackness and lateral violence.
