Colonial native living in the belly of the beast. Like a stubborn corn kernel, resisting the corrosive gastric juices, to come out the other end more or less intact.

My ten cents is that newspapers should stop calling it a drug boat if there was never any evidence presented of it being a drug boat.

The most important theorist to American conceptions of "freedom of speech" is John Stuart Mill, who spent decades as a colonial administrator and leader in India & did not believe that his ideas about liberty applied to colonial subjects and this seems relevant to how universal his ideas truly were

Today is World AIDS Day. The White House ignored the AIDS crisis when it began because a Republican (Reagan) was president. The United States is no longer observing World AIDS Day because another Republican (Trump) is president. #Bigots

A college student complaining about a grade on a paper is not national news. Not even close. The details have minimal import outside the class itself.

Well-funded political activists targeting profs and TAs—in this case because they're trans—with the help of elected state officials? National issue.

Disabled people were one of the first groups targeted by the Nazis.

They coined the term “useless eaters”.

They tested the gas chambers on us.

They knew most people wouldn’t fight to save our lives.

That’s why the President using the R slur is so dangerous.

We’re not expendable

Yep.
every trans person i see post about the OU suspension knows that the suspended target is trans & a grad student, & has an innate awareness that this is about purging trans employees. every cis person i see thinks the target is a rando professor & that this is about giving conservatives good grades

This is so dangerous. The essay was trash and was at a 3rd grade writing level at most. Open season on professors...
OU has put the professor here on administrative leave:

No, nope, nonines, GTFOOH, a las ventas del carajo. Puerto Rico libre y soberano. Statehood ain’t what it’s cracked up to be. For us, it’s displacement. 128 years of colonialism is enough.
that’s why statehood to DC and Puerto Rico should be first on agenda with electoral votes and 4 senators .. have to give it to conservatives who waited for 50 years to populate the SCOTUS with absolute low integrity and corrupt judges who will rule anything for the party billionaire elites

A grave historical mistake that the leaders of the Confederacy were not tried and hanged.
"Western civilization," the font, the 11 stars - 11 states in the confederacy, for the record.

Why is this never news? Why are we letting our government agencies do this sort of thing while the news agencies report on hallucinated trade deals and act like everything is normal

Also if you’re unwilling to be confrontational with powerful people you just should not be a journalist. You aren’t cut out for it.

Selfishly, very glad a couple of friends got their citizenship before the current administration. I deeply feel for all those being unfairly targeted and having their lives torn upside down.
