just like how "wokeness" did not go far enough whatsoever, the issue was that metoo did not go far enough whatsoever
I keep thinking again, in light of the latest Epstein files dump, about how MeToo “went too far.”

This is such a good article. When I was a teenager, I was swept away by this bombastic idea of Richard Feynman discovering the O-ring problem with sheer ingenuity. In reality, engineers knew and tried to stop the launch. Sally Ride was the one who gave him the tip.

Please spread this far and wide, as stories don't get much bigger than this. When the government blocks even the intelligence services from telling us we're heading for environmental catastrophe, you know we have a problem. A very big problem.
Thank you.

The UK government didn't want you to see this report on ecosystem collapse. I'm not surprised | George Monbiot
It took an FOI request to bring this national security assessment to light. For ‘doomsayers’ like us, it is the ultimate vindication, says Guardian columnist George Monbiot

The biggest risk in this moment is something sociologists call “symbolic compliance.”

That’s when an institution that is violating civil rights gives the public just enough symbolic victories that accountability efforts lose steam before there has been any meaningful change.

I don’t think people quite understand that the occupation by ICE in the Twin Cities has more or less erased non-white people from public life. They cannot safely exist in any space accessible to the public and moving between private places leaves folks vulnerable to kidnapping by armed masked goons.

This is, of course, why reactionary movements of all stripes seek so diligently to destroy social trust. An atmosphere of corrosive cynicism is conducive to authoritarianism. "I can't trust anyone, better just find protection from the biggest guy on the block."
