His father abused him and never loved him and he’ll abuse the whole world trying to find a sense of self worth.

Unfortunately, in US journalism it is considered neutral to spread a lie, but it is considered "biased" to call out a lie. So, there is a structural asymmetry that rewards colorful lies with virality.

This is a bad headline. How many people will scroll past & use it to confirm their bias? It’s not just unethical, it’s contributing to disinformation & I question the intent.

Critics have likened the New York Times’ approach to capitulation, while others have chalked it up to cooperation.

In 1945, the US Army put out a training manual designed to equip rank and file soldiers with the tools to spot and combat incipient fascism were it to emerge in post-war America. Those lessons are just as American as Miller's illiberal bigotry, and worth remembering today. bsky.app/profile/seth...

The first fascistic tactic to look out for is a hate campaign against a particular religious, racial, or ethnic group. Like, for example, let's say a candidate emerges who calls all people of one nationality "rapists" and "criminals," while promising to ban immigrants from only one religious group.
1. Pitting of religious, racial, and economic groups against one another in order to break down national unity is a device of the "divide and conquer" technique used by Hitler to gain power in Germany and in other countries. With slight variations, to suit local conditions, fascists everywhere have used this Hitler method. In many countries, anti-Semitism (hatred of Jews) is a dominant device of fascism. In the United States, native fascists have often been anti-Catholic, anti-Jew, anti-Negro, anti-Labor, anti-foreign-born. In South America, the native fascists use the same scapegoats except that they substitute anti-Protestantism for anti-Catholicism. Interwoven with the "master race" theory of fascism is a well-planned "hate campaign" against minority races, religions, and other groups. To suit their particular needs and aims, fascists will use any one or a combination of such groups as a convenient scapegoat.

Trump is an instinctive bigot, but he doesn’t have the attention span to be an ideologically committed white nationalist. He also craves approval from everyone (e.g. his Mamdani meeting). That’s why Miller’s role as Trump’s white nationalist whisperer has been so important. bsky.app/profile/atru...

Trump: “I will permanently pause migration from all Third World Countries … denaturalize migrants who undermine domestic tranquility, and deport any Foreign National who is a public charge, security risk, or non-compatible with Western Civilization.“

In 2005 Duke undergraduate Stephen Miller wrote this piece framing multiculturalism as a form of unpatriotic segregationism. He has always been a maladjusted white nationalist who doesn’t understand what the US is. bsky.app/profile/seth...

Stephen Miller wrote this piece for the Duke student newspaper TWENTY YEARS AGO. You won't find a single talking point in here that a) wasn't already a stale Limbaugh-esque talking point in 2005 and b) isn't also the cutting edge of GOP messaging about universities today.
OPINION Welcome to Leftist University By Stephen Miller September 4, 2005 | 9:00pm PST Listen to this article now 1.0x Powered by Trinity Audio 00:00 04:56 As I'm sure you all know by now, Duke prides itself on its diversity. And indeed, our student body is certainly very diverse. But what you might not know is that in one crucial area we lack the only kind of diversity which really matters on a college campus-diversity of thought. Of course, I'm not referring to you, but rather, the people whom you've entrusted with your education. Yes, that's right, our faculty. For all its innovation and uniqueness, Duke shares a shameful deficiency with its peer institutions. Our academia is terribly and undeniably one-sided. Like countless other schools across the nation, we too are a leftist university. Welcome and beware. Let me give you an example of Duke's bias many of you have recently experienced. For the conclusion of freshman orientation, Maya Angelou gave her famous address to the incoming class. I can imagine you must have been very excited to hear her speak, especially since the orientation pamphlet lauds her "legendary wisdom" (known outside of academic circles as tired, multicultural clichés.) But I shouldn't kid. After all, it was Maya Angelou who had the great wisdom to condemn the show Jeopardy! for being racist (how could you, Trebek?). Now, whether you share her racial paranoia or not, the point remains that she is a leftist, yet she is invited to give the orientation speech every single year. Has the administration ever heard of balance? Why not invite someone with another perspective from time to time? Maybe someone who instead of talking about multiculturalism, talks about patriotism-or would that be inappropriate? With the way things are currently being run such common sense is not like to occur anytime soon. The administration is so obsessed with multiculturalism (a.k.a. segregation) that they deem it necessary to include in freshman orientation a separate luncheon for black students. Call me a sentimental fool, but I agree with Martin Luther King Jr. and don't think that we should divide people based on the color of their skin. But then again, social engineering is just so much fun-ask any leftist. And leftists will certainly be easy to find at Duke. Just look for a professor. An examination of humanities and liberal arts professors' party affiliation done by the Duke Conservative Union in 2004 revealed a disturbing lack of intellectual diversity. Democrats outweighed Republicans in the faculty by a staggering ratio of more than six to one. As for the 10 academic deans, all of them were Democrats with the exception of one lone Republican. Amazingly, there was not a single registered Republican to be found in all of the literature, anthropology, sociology, philosophy or history departments. Given the situation, it should come as no surprise that 39 professors used University funds to run an ad condemning the war in Iraq and expressing solidarity with anti-war student groups. Nor should it seem peculiar that Duke offers a variety of courses focusing on the study of feminism and Marxism but nothing on conservatism or traditional values. And, as truly reprehensible as it is, it should not shock you that many mainstream courses slant sharply to the left or that conservative students frequently feel they have to make the cruel choice between being open about their beliefs and getting a fair shot at an A. Of course, let us not forget President Richard Brodhead. Last year he allowed the Palestine Solidarity Movement's conference on campus despite its connections to terrorist organization. During the conference I personally witnessed (and have a recording) of students being recruited by conference speakers to aid and abet attacks against Israel. Brodhead had the gall to bill the conference as being educational and after it was finished claimed it was "constructive," despite reports of the virulent anti-Semitic activities that occurred there. Brodhead's appalling decision turned Duke into another pawn in the vast terrorist campaign. All of this demonstrates the dire need for reform. To that end, David Horowitz, civil rights activist and founder of Students for Academic Freedom, has drafted a politically neutral student's bill of rights to protect academic freedom, to prohibit partisan hiring practices and to stop the use of universities as tools for advancing political agendas. It's time to give new life to the words "higher learning" and bring true diversity to Duke. It's time to restore decency and dignity to our campus. It's time to give all students a fair and just education. And for the love of God, it's time to get another orientation speaker. Stephen Miller is a Trinity junior and President of Students for Academic Freedom at Duke University.

Every genocide starts off as a massive forced migration. Armenia, the Holocaust… I can’t believe we’re at this junction again and that so many people are still this oblivious to it all.
