I bring this up all the time. I learned it from reading “White by Law” by Ian Haney López, and I encourage everyone to read it.
The best moment in the History of the Word Caucasian came in a series of Supreme Court cases during the immigration panic of the 1920s.
The Naturalization Act of 1790 said that only "white" people could be naturalized as American citizens, but that only raised questions about what counted as white?

It stems from a literal belief that white peoples descended from the Caucasus mountains after Noah’s ark

The Great Barrington Declaration was a bloody disaster. One of the greatest human follies of the modern age.
Sheer arrogance and cynicism.

I’m suggesting that this admin will take a lone wolf attack like this as an opportunity to oppress hundreds of thousands of people who have absolutely nothing to do with it.

“You can't fight fascism by mirroring it.”
It is unacceptable that this dude was allowed in leftist spaces. Some people are really twisting the concept of "popular front" & "big tent" if they're gonna allow the fascists into the bar. And not just a fascist, a fucking accelerationist genocidal tankie.

The AI bubble may be about to bust.
Peter Thiel has sold all of his Nvidia stock.
We all need to say this very clearly:
NO BAILOUTS FOR THEFT-TECH!
Expropriate their asses instead.
They stole from all of us and fully plan to burn the planet.
They owe us - not the other way around. 1/3

Last night was the worst bombing I have experienced in Kyiv since the war began. 7 hours of non stop aerial attacks across the city.

Some declare we shouldn't pay attention to the work of those with whom we disagree, from the center over to fascism--and that doing so is naive faith in dialogue. We must, & it's not. It's called reporting, it's called research. It's about knowing the size, shape, timing, intent of the attack.

I wrote a long essay about this. Hopefully the journal I submitted it to publishes soon so I can share it with the rest of you!
Few things piss me off as much as cryptofascists subverting and infiltrating a morally just cause.
