There are so many elements that have made his ascension possible: co-opted corporate media; social media’s unregulated environment; the overwhelm from the sheer number of misdeeds; coordinated foreign interference; destruction of K-12 education; racist grievance culture; unchecked gross inequity.

The New York Times is sure tickled by the story about the Des Moines school superintendent. Just can’t get enough of it. Gleeful, in fact.

“We are home now. We marched from the park to ICE, very peaceful crowd. We were standing around ICE pushed us down, sprayed us with chemical and I was hit in the head with a projectile. This was so unprovoked. People have to know that the Feds are attacking people with NO provocation whatsoever.”

At UCLA, senior leadership is silent except when chastising the professoriate. Why aren’t they strategizing like this, instead?

Two things:

1. The NYT elevated this person to prominence through _opinion_ pages. She has never been a journalist.

2. Substack paid her and several others to come to their platform. I have no idea why so many of you are (still/ever) on there but you need to rethink it.

We are in an era of such deep quackery that it is killing people. This is just one example. But you don’t need to look any further than who is in power and why, either.

The REASON Bluesky is where it's at right now is partially because of the the trans, Sex Worker and BIPOC early adopters of this site and Bluesky keeps throwing those users under the bus while claiming to be a better space. Yet day by day it's falling into the same ol' shit.

UCLA faculty unequivocally told UCLA administration and UC Office of the President to show us the 28-page DoJ extortion letter being held tightly for reasons that are only bad for faculty, bad for students and bad for the public.
