@support.bsky.team why the hell did you suspend @sarahkendzior.bsky.social??
This is really concerning. If you’re suspending people like Sarah, what’s the point of even being on here?

Will we wait to learn the nature of 21st century fascism until after this is all done? Or will we only rely on our understanding of 1930s fascism?
It’s utterly important we learn the history. It’s also important we understand how they’ve adapted to this moment.

Trump threatening to essentially sanction Brazil for prosecuting an attempt to overturn an election is somehow a less subtle version of US-Latin America policy than the actual coups we did

So they want us to believe that people who were seeking work at Home Depot are a threat to our community?? The same people who suburban families invite into their homes to complete tiling and roofing projects?!
That’s who we’re supposed to fear and not the thugs in riot gear?!?

The inability or refusal of many to grapple with the horrors of this war, which is aided and supported by the U.S., is simply a moral failure. This administration could end it if it decided to. The strategic costs are a secondary consideration.

something that stands out about this is just how cheap it is for us to have world-leading scientific capacity
we spent ~6.75 trillion last year, and the combined budgets for NIH, NSF and NASA are barely more than 1% of that
what an incredible waste to lose it all for a drop in the bucket

There are 2 previous historical cases of countries destroying their science and universities, crippling them for decades: Lysenkoism in the USSR and Nazi Germany. The Trump administration will be the 3rd.
It's not just budgets but research, institutions, expertise, and training the next generation.

Thinking you’re going to get an apology and remorse from the people who voted for this is like thinking your narcissistic parent is going to apologize for your childhood. These people think not apologizing or acknowledging regret is a virtue. And additionally, a form of image control.

Last night was the 250th anniversary of Paul Revere's midnight ride to warn the Minutemen of approaching British troops.

Anyone else find it ironic that the party who hates drag queens is led by an plump, hair and makeup obsessed octogenarian and a VP who wears so much eyeliner he constantly looks like he’s on his way to auditioning for a spot with a Cure cover band? 🙄

So it goes without saying, but let's say it anyway: the concentration of attacks on trans people isn't because trans people are the only people fascists hate (although they absolutely do hate them). It's because they're the people they think non-fascists are least likely to defend.

We worked for months with USAID to build an $85,000,000 project to end TB in two regions of the Philippines.
The project is funded by private money, the Philippine government, and matching USAID funds.
It could provide a blueprint for eliminating TB worldwide--except it's...not happening.
