Statement by an Aussie after the recent Australian elections which repudiated that country’s political right. This is a future the US could have had, but will not.

#CCCC25 panel that got me thinking about reflecting on the past, nostalgia, and how our practices can keep teaching us long after we have shifted away to other matters.

SMDH. NatGeo is colonizer trash.
Picture of a Reddit thread called r/IndianCountry, that comments on a National Geographic article about the Mayan culture’s “disappearance.” Commenters point out how Mayans have always said they are still here and part of Mexican culture.

This is the sort of thing I’d say qualifies you to be no longer welcome as an alumnus of a university.
Screen shot of Twitter posts from an Iowa alumnus expressing hate against women: “a special gulag for left wing white women” — “the laundry ward” and “want to drag their dead political bodies through the streets, burn them, and throw them off the wall.”

Screenshot of a paragraph reading “Argument, as it has developed over the past 500 years or so, is due for a shift similar to the shifts it made several times already, away from Platonic dialogues onto the page and away from Biblical authority toward reason and science. Today, appeals to basic science are twisted and subverted as part of this cancer. Such disruption of public reason through mimetic technologies organised by unfeeling (and literally sense-less) philosophies suggests the need for a new argumentative strategy. Any removal of edge lord disagreement must be tied to a consideration of how they view oppression and denial of others as justified. Theirs is a powerful network of actors propping up various data points and lines of argument for political and economic gain. It is less a matter of lies to be debunked and more a reality to be maintained and inhabited. To violate that reality, as Jim Corder put it in the epigraph to this introduction, is just tribal talk.”
