Amber Glenn won Olympic gold on Sunday. That same day, she left social media because of death threats. Her offense: she'd told reporters the queer community is going through "a hard time." The headline called it "backlash." www.readtpa.com/p/the-thresh...
The Threshold
The right used to attack athletes who protested. Now they attack athletes who express feelings at all.

my political goals include things like abolishing ICE, crushing american fascism, and jailing these corrupt and evil people who have caused so much pain and suffering. i only care about supporting democrats to the extent i believe their rhetoric or candidates will bring those goals closer.

I still think about the fact that scientists had to remove words like diversity (when talking about genetic diversity) expression (when talking abt genes) and fucking mRNA (bc it makes the squealing hogs mad) to get their money back. Every single act of political censorship we accuse other countries

This is the plight of #breastcancer scientists all over the country. Even though Congress approved an increase in the #NIH budget, much has irrevocably changed. Research staff has been laid off.

This is the definitive point by Chris Hedges, re: Noam Chomsky and Epstein. Chomsky's entire value as a public intellectual is to know what people like Epstein are up to and why. Him feigning ignorance is absurd, and if it were true it would undermine the rest of his career.

One of the best examples of racial exceptionalism clouding basic cognitive function on the part of a subset of the US commentariat was when the NYT ran a rare story about the IDF shooting children in the head and evidenced this with actual MRIs and X-Rays and people still denied this was possible.
