Next time someone starts going off about how there’s been a decline in “masculinity” maybe point out to them that the main concept for “manliness” used in western culture since the greeks is “virtue”, and maybe they should “RETVRN” to virtue ethics instead of engaging in bizarre kabuki gender play.

Note for Democratic politicians: you don't have to start your condemnations of ICE raids with "We all want to catch violent criminals, but..." Just say "These raids have nothing to do with catching criminals and everything to do with terrorizing innocent minority groups."

Before the midterms of 1866, President Andrew Johnson called his congressional opponents traitors and said they should be hanged.

Voters were so profoundly moved by his words... that they gave his opponents a supermajority in Congress, and the nation got the Fourteenth Amendment.

81 years ago, FDR proposed a second Bill of Rights to guarantee every American the right to employment, healthcare, education, housing, and a living income. His words are as relevant now as they were then. Watch.

OpenAI pirated large numbers of books and used them to train models.

OpenAI then deleted the dataset with the pirated books, and employees sent each other messages about doing so.

A lawsuit could now force the company to pay $150,000 per book, adding up to billions in damages.

Thoughts - Right-Wing Family Values has always been about those families THEY SEE as deserving - and that is one of the tipoffs of underlying fascism: Those who are acceptable (the ingroup) are deserving of the benefits of government and society. Those who are unacceptable (the outgroups) are not.

Socialism is a scare word they have hurled at every advance the people have made in the last 20 years.

Socialism is what they called public power. Socialism is what they called social security.

Socialism is their name for almost anything that helps all the people.

The federal government keeps labeling everyone they go after as cartel members — and it keeps being proven false. These are the same people we’re supposed to trust when they execute people at sea under that very justification?
