Hard to know what admire more: Einstein’s principled anti-racism, or his ability to time-travel forward and raid Angela Merkel’s closet.

I seriously never want to hear about Clinton, Clinton, Obama, or Biden again.
its remarkable to see random suburbanites in their fucking PJs have more courage than the vast majority of america's political, social, and civil elites

And I think a lot of us should consider why this guy got such an explosively positive reception right out of the gate when pols like AOC and Mamdani and even Obama had to build their base brick by brick, against major pushback

Mussolini wanted fascism to be called "corporatism" because it mobilizes state power to serve business interests.
This is literally the largest act of union busting in American history.

I am done with the "good" straight white men. Anti-Zionist Jews march against genocide. US citizens get arrested in support of undocumented migrants. White folks protest against racist police. WHERE ARE THE GOOD MEN? Why aren't they out in the streets against this regime's grotesque misogyny?

No one should be surprised that TX Dems know how to boldly confront abuses of state power. The so-called red states are home to the fiercest, most experienced warriors for democracy. Abandoned and scorned by "blue" state white elites, they are the unsung heroes of the resistance.

Noteworthy, I think, that the Democratic establishment are putting much more effort into stopping Mamdani than stopping Trump

Is there a translation/edition of Revelations of Divine Love that you would recommend? Finally listened to your interview w/Simon Critchley, and I'm so many kinds of intrigued.

I urge Massachusetts legislators to go to Louisiana and see Ms Ozturk in person. (Camp out on the doorstep!) They need to show that MA's elected officials are personally committed to stopping secret police from kidnapping and incarcerating any of us when we speak up against wrongdoing.

Urgent question for @chrismurphyct.bsky.social , @blumenthal.senate.gov, @delauro.house.gov. Why am not seeing your name on this letter? As a 2nd generation Holocaust survivor, I was raised that snatching people off the street for their views or ethnicity is ALWAYS wrong. Your silence terrifies me.

We’re going to spend the next 4 years seeing normal, everyday people do more to stand up to lawlessness and fascism than all the institutions of power and privilege.
And if we get through this, all the leaders of those institutions will clap each other in the back and say what a good job they did.

Authoritarianism progressively worsens, but there are hinge points, moments where the necessary reach of cruelty can be met with focused resistance.
We’re in one of those moments. We can band together, take collective action, and change the paradigm. The consequences of not doing it are immense.

UPDATE—Mahmoud's attorney says they do NOT know where he is.
They were first told he was sent to an ICE facility in Elizabeth, NJ. But when his 8-month-pregnant wife tried to visit him, she was told he's not there.
They've received reports he may be sent as far away as Louisiana.

A friend mentioned that when Henry Kissinger got the Nobel Peace Prize, musical satirist Tom Lehrer had a nervous breakdown because satire was dead. And the more I think about Kissinger getting the Nobel, the more I think we always were headed for this exact moment we find ourselves in now.
