This is actually horrific levels of bigotry from Norman Finkelstein, holy shit.

A tweet by Norman Finkelstein

"NEWS FLASH:

Bari Weiss hires Van Jones to head up CBS News Schvartze Department."

["Schvartze" is a Yiddish racial slur for Black people.]

I think I saw someone cite a screenshot of a political donation, but "Scott Brown" is such a common name that it's not really proof of anything.

It is still frightening to me how many people are CONVINCED Brittney Griner is secretly trans. It doesn't matter that you point out that Russia sent her to a women's prison, or that she was already playing girl's basketball in high school in late 2000s Texas. SOMEHOW, she must be trans!

Which is literally what the point people are trying to make is. Creating slurs designed to target a nonliving thing just screams "I want to be racist towards a human being but can't, so I'll do this instead." You are, in fact, agreeing with the argument being made!

It's not just that, it's people calling AIs and robots "tinskin", " wireback", etc, which are literally just actual racial slurs but slightly changed!

In this case they are using machines as a stand-in or proxy for actual humans.

it‘s wild how Will’s mentions are full of Bluesky users defending AI and neo nazis because harassing Will Stancil is in fact a higher principle than any of anyone’s other beliefs

Will Stancil @whstancil.bsky.social · 17h

it was in this moment, where the infamous white nationalist followed by the vice president of the united states shared the cartoon show that neo-Nazis had made about me, that I realized the modern world had gone mad and must end

I am saddened to say that Aaron Judge has beaten the "low leverage" allegations. Damn it.

Thank you, @peterbakernyt.bsky.social, this couldn't be more urgent! We need breaking news stories about stuff that happened while Joe Biden was vice president now more than ever!

While his father was vice president, Hunter Biden began developing relationships that led to an audacious proposal to sell the land around the US Embassy building in Romania to a group that included a Chinese company. @kenvogel.bsky.social www.nytimes.com/2025/10/07/u...

Someone who used to work with Katie Porter sent me this clip from a train wreck interview with her and said “now imagine what she’s like when there aren’t cameras around.”

If you somehow managed to read (or watch) the entirety of a series that goes out of its way to say that chasing revenge will destroy you doesn't end with one of the main characters getting revenge on everyone who he perceived as having wronged him, you have completely missed the fucking point.

It's honestly kinda funny whenever I see people mad about a work of fiction not turning to the camera to endorse their personal political beliefs at the end. Like seeing people get mad at Kishimoto for how Naruto ended because it didn't endorse retributive violence and revenge.

What’s lost in this conversation is that language must always escape containment, so your playful little “clanker” slur is now being directed at people with bionic limbs.

Harmless fun, right? www.tiktok.com/t/ZP8AjSabH/

Doctors pointing to healthcare CEO pay when anyone brings up healthcare costs is kind of like AirBnB owners making six figures pointing at the Hilton CEO’s pay package when you ask why hotels and Airbnbs cost what they do
