People of Illinois, we need your help.
Get your cell phones out – record what you see. Put it on social media. Peacefully ask for badge numbers and identification. Speak up for your neighbors.
We need to let the world know this is happening – and that we won’t stand for it.

This is precisely the problem, the refusal by centrist elites to differentiate between challenging ideas and debunked lies. It's not "challenging" to hear that black people are stupid or gay people are degenerates, it's just wrong.
They never complete the sentence, ie "...educators and students must face ideas we find offensive, such as the claim that Black women lack the brain processing power to fly planes or serve on the Supreme Court or that gay people should be stoned to death." Pretty telling that they don't!
The President of Barnard College calls for more controversial speakers like the late Kirk (without citing any of his controversial views), a position at odds with what Barnard colleagues describe as a track record of censoring events and speakers on Palestine. (1/4) www.nytimes.com/2025/09/17/o...

Novo Nordisk’s move to cut the price of Ozempic to $499 for the uninsured is a modest step forward, but let’s not forget.
Ozempic costs just $59 in Germany while it costs less than $5 to make.
The U.S. must no longer pay the highest prices in the world for prescription drugs.

i think the correct way to think about the lonely boy question is not "how do we reach out to incels?" but "how do we make sure that a teenage boy looking for romantic advice isn't flooded with right-wing propaganda?"

Ghislaine Maxwell--A WHOLE PREDATOR--is probably going to get a pardon for keeping her mouth shut about Trump, move to the Swiss Alps, and marry a billionaire, while I ration Fage yogurt between buy-one-get-one-free sales.

they’ll adopt a complex intersectional understanding of the world when it helps them protect existing hierarchies
Note also that the lawsuit alleges that because race and class are correlated, providing free tuition to lower income students is also racial preference.
