Hey, I wrote a book.
Did The Science Wars Take Place?
Covers the history and philosophy of a fight in the 80s & 90s between some postmodernists and scientists, with an eye to anarchist interests and lasting political influences among the far-right.

The genealogy of this shit is wild because like he's really open about pulling from certain european socialists who fetishized the medieval pre-industrial period, and then going like yeah, totally, let's do that to 11.

According to multiple NYT sources, it wasn’t even military personnel at Fort Bliss that fired an anti-drone laser at alleged cartel drones. It was CBP who used the weapon on loan from DoD against a child’s party balloon they mistook for a drone. The Pentagon gave CBP an anti-aircraft weapon.

Every photo from Minneapolis looks like this. Cops decked out with guns and full tac gear facing off against people in bathrobes, parkas, and sweatpants armed only with whistles and cell phones.
Yet every verified MAGA chode on X dutifully calls it a riot or violent insurrection.

This is not, in the patriarch's view, hypocritical at all.
To them, women and children are property and a man is entitled to do as he wishes with his own property, including destroy it.

You can’t have an abortion but you can kill your grown daughter if she disagrees with you
A MAGA freak in Texas murdered his own daughter in cold blood after they had an argument about Trump.
A grand jury in the Dallas area then *declined to indict him*, and he has not yet faced charges.
Seems like many Texans believe a man has the right to kill his own child for disobedience.

It looks like the DOJ monitored members of Congress’s searches of the unredacted Epstein files.

In either case, the weirdo outliers seem to be the non-fare-hoppers, since there are fare-hopper's unions in Europe, and indeed the left there is pretty infamously more intense about supporting such struggles than in the US.

Okay, that makes more sense, I guess it's weird to think of not-hopping as a more, rather than hopping as a more.

Of course I just totally fail to see starving the state of money as "anti-social" but I think for most american leftists the instinct is more "When I see an actual flesh-and-blood graffiti artist in conflict with his natural enemy, the policeman, I do not have to ask myself which side I am on."

I'd love to crow that America is more anarchist, but both that and "social mores from men with guns" are just completely disconnected from the reality that the american Left is less about the proletariat and more about the lumpen. No graffito tagger or fare-hopper is packing heat, that's silly.

There's obviously a few people at Reason who are fine/good (Jesse!) but jesus christ the fake ass equivalencies, nonstop downplaying the threat, pandering to Robby's horrible fanbase, denouncing those actually resisting fascists... it adds up to complicity.

Yeah that's like such whaddaboutism. Like everyone knows that the information space is filled with trivially fake accusations of antisemitism against anti-zionists. That in no way means we should ignore those leftists pushing antisemitic narratives or outright memes. Three Way Fight.

As long as antifa has existed, antifascist scholars have been writing about antisemitism in the left. (This is hardly a point exclusive to postleftists, and indeed there's been antisemitism among postleftists too.) Spencer Sunshine, to give just one name, has written a ton on examples and dynamics.

Invoking wealthy class solidarity to excuse sex crimes against children is sorta the Epstein Class in a nutshell
Bondi crashes out over Epstein: "The Dow is over 50,000 dollars! I don't know why you're laughing. You're a great stock trader as I hear, Raskin. The Dow is over 50,000 right now. The S&P at almost 7,000, and the Nasdaq smashing records. That's what we should be talking about."

This is the aftermath of an ICE kidnapping a few blocks from my home in St. Paul—an hour ago. A quiet street full of broken glass and at least three wrecked cars. The target of the kidnapping was taken away by ambulance. He was on a stretcher and covered by a sheet, though a cop said he was alive.

"Palestinian witnesses have reported that some prisoners were alive at the time they were taken for organ extraction. In one batch of bodies, the organs removed were those commonly transplanted: heart, liver, lungs... Here, the surgeon acts as—is—a soldier."

![Examining the bodies returned to their people after the most recent so-called ceasefire, Palestinian doctors noted that, in some bodies “the rib cage and ribs were clipped with a sharp saw—a medical saw, a bone saw—and the sternum, along with the central part of the ribs, [were] lifted to allow for the removal of the heart and lungs without damage to the organ being taken.” Organ procurement, with few exceptions like skin and cornea, requires that the body be either alive—via brain death—or just-dead—via circulatory death. It is plausible that some Palestinian prisoners’ torture led to brain death. It is also possible their torturers felt no need to wait. Palestinian witnesses have reported that some prisoners were alive at the time they were taken for organ extraction. In one batch of bodies, the organs removed were those commonly transplanted: heart, liver, lungs. The transplant surgeon waits for a person to die; the soldier can’t. The settler surgeon wields his mastery over the body to serve the state. Here, the surgeon acts as—is—a soldier.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:tgw3d4hvw3x5ijrxax7lg26u/bafkreiesvmsm3hrmrwxi7d7wvuaxc7u7oovqonpx2tdpxdnjhlgxh7lhni@jpeg)
