a sincere answer to "is there a technology the left is excited about" is, what are the technologies that are most amenable to democratic control for the public good; and/or how do we assert democratic control for the public good over a given technological system

Everyone else's "New Year" celebrations starting during Black History Month is a sign from the heavens that now is our time to reject white supremacy TOGETHER.

Like we mutually break up with corpos fine great, but then they have a total monopoly on communicating with like. 90% of all people. I wonder if like. Organizing indie creators to make a concerted effort to penetrate markets? Is that a thing?

Yall talk about Black leftists as if none of them have their own thoughts. As if they all get their talking points from white leftists.
It’s fucking weird.

This is also necessary to keep the conversation focused on the relative sincerity of white people rather than on demands that Black people themselves have made.

Future mom to Braelynn and Coreigh.
they have a whole social clubs of well groomed white girls dedicated to showing the athletes a good time at colleges. ours were called the stately ladies. they all looked exactly the same. that neveah/jayden mom bob was heavily featured.
this reminds me of that video i saw where former athletes admit the college coaches, scouts etc purposefully surround the black athletes with white & non black women. even the ones with black gf are specifically told to leave them because it’s not a good look.

One part of Jesse Jackson's legacy I feel able to talk about is that he absolutely helped to pull the Democratic Party forward on gay rights. He did so out of both moral conviction-- because it was right--and a shrewd belief in coalition politics. That's one of many lessons we can learn from him.
