I teach a history of antifascism course @ruhistorydept.bsky.social and figured I'd start an ongoing thread this semester to share some insights from course readings and recommend some great works on antifascism.

A human can write a poem as self expression without knowing what a poem even is. Can an LLM write poetry without being trained on poetry?

"The woman said of the “refugees”: “They were understanding that they would be arriving here for complete assistance. People thought they would be arriving at a house, a job, medical insurance, and other things. It isn’t that way at all."

BREAKING: A few minutes ago, a vehicle of three people was rammed by a truck belonging to federal immigration authorities in Boyle Heights, CA. According to security footage shown to me, they deployed chemical munitions & detained the driver at gunpoint. All are US citizens according to the wife.

I caught one yesterday
This is wild. I made a silly little post yesterday. Richard responded with a joke, and then "Cassandra" hopped in the thread. I thought her responses were weird, but then Richard caught on and posted this. Clever way to catch a bot!

socialist gets within 10% of a poll for a high profile position and liberals just straight up start promoting ethno nationalism.

Truly wild that if you say "I believe Israel has the right to exist as a place with equal rights for everyone" that every fucking lib will immediately scream "how fucking dare you!" Without a shred of self reflection.

Will you kiss Israel’s feet, sir?

Will you publicly flagellate yourself for Israel, candidate?

As mayor of a US city will you get an Israeli flag tattooed on your forehead?

It's pretty much sacrilegious to say that the social sciences and humanities are as important as STEM. But I'll go one further and say they are more important than STEM. You can be a productive member of civic society without ever taking calculus. Good luck doing that without understanding history.
