also, “politics is bottom/top not left/right” might work as a slogan but is shit as analysis. who is the bottom? who is the top? who constitutes an “elite” and who belongs to “the people?” these are important questions that have to be answered.

when I was young, i used to wonder how people like this would fare in life, as they didn't seem suited for gainful employment. it turns out, the internet allowed them to accumulate a massive audience of similar idiots, enriching them and turning them into a presidential advisor
Polymarket tweets: "BREAKING: Zohran Mamdani to require all New York elementary school students to learn Arabic numerals." Laura Loomer replies: "You know things are bad when you can't tell if this is real or a joke. Dear God. It's real. Isn't it?"

Happy birthday to the Soviet linguist Yuri Knorozov who casually deciphered the Mayan script in 1952 and got pissed when editors removed his cat as co-author on papers or cropped her out of his author headshot (the only picture of himself he even liked)

La bona gent de @lasoga.bsky.social m'han publicat aquesta traducció sobre la potència anticapitalista del culturisme 🏋️‍♀️💪
lasoga.bsky.social Revista cultural LaSoga @lasoga.bsky.social · 18d
El culturismo nació como una rebelión contra el trabajo: como espacio donde el esfuerzo y su fruto pertenece al cuerpo, no al jefe. ¿Pervive hoy entre las métricas esa raíz anticapitalista?
Traducción de @pmsamblas.bsky.social de un texto de Adam Szetela para Jacobin

Existe una relación directamente proporcional entre la cantidad de charlas sobre “frenar a la extrema derecha” y su crecimiento. Nada desea más un actor político que ocupar esa centralidad: eso contribuye a convertirlo en una criatura mitológica, en un monstruo extraordinario.

Bertrand Russell once received letters from Sir Oswald Mosley, the founder of the British Union of Fascists, inviting him to a debate. Russell not only declined but replied quite generally that “nothing fruitful or sincere could ever emerge from association between us.” @olufemiotaiwo.bsky.social

Creo que es una motivación política muy difícil de entender para una persona progresista, pero existe. Básicamente: los hijos de nuestros enemigos tienen que pasarlo mal para que nosotros podamos disfrutar de nuestros privilegios. Y no es una cosa a nivel material, no es por el dinero, es que ...

El artículo es interesante, pero seguimos sin hablar del elefante en la habitación: todos los problemas vienen porque jamás en nuestra historia nos hemos regido por un reloj ni nos hemos levantado en invierno dos o tres horas antes del amanecer para ponernos a trabajar a la luz de un fluorescente.
