Do i search "Substack nazis" once a day on here to make sure the discourse doesn't die?
You bet your sweet ass I do.
There's no reason for anyone to be STARTING a substack in the year of our lord 2025, what with all the white nationalists, antisemites, and anti-trans bellends. Just say no to SS.

They’re forcing federal workers back to offices that are going to disappear.
Why?
Because they’re shutting the government down. Permanently. People made fun of me for saying this a month ago. But here we are.

I can't emphasize this enough: the criminalization of "DEIA" curricula, programs and research related to human diversity, equity, inclusion and access IS NOT merely "resegregation". Entire generations of educators and scholars like W.E.B. Du Bois produced activist knowledge DURING segregation!!

I’m not sure the rest of the country fully grasps the panic and anger building in DC, MD, and VA.
The entire economy of this area is about to collapse. Paychecks are stopping. Careers are ruined. Taxes are about to plummet. Yet no one seems able to stop this madness.
