One of the things that you see at the International Civil Rights Center & Museum in Greensboro, North Carolina is a Jim Crow era Coke machine that was designed to fit into a segregated bus station. One machine two sides.
The Coke cost more on the Black side.

Amazing how many articles are just “I’m a white guy who didn’t get the promotion I wanted and the only answer to this problem that concerns every single one of us is to re-segregate the workplace”

I'm not sure if people realize the murder strikes are taking place across a large region. It's quite staggering.

I've mentioned before that my wife is a linguist. She's got a decades-long vendetta against Noam Chomsky because, whatever else he's said about politics and communications theory, a while back he apparently made a bunch of shit up about linguistics that's been completely disproved

U.S. military should not be present as backdrop when the President - any President - launches into overtly partisan political statements. He’s free to do so, but they should excuse themselves.

Indeed. Unlike Charlie Kirk, you can describe and quote the Reiners' work in a glowing memorial piece.
You can't do that with Kirk—his life's work was advocating for hatred and bigotry—and the NYTimes didn't.
Honestly portraying him would have been, as they say, inconceivable.

he was a joke candidate till he went full racist in that rant and then suddenly he was the frontrunner
It is revisionist history to say anything other than Trump’s coalition was built on old fashioned American racism.
He opened with “They’re not sending their best,” progressed to “shit hole countries,” and now we have pogroms in our cities.
Some may have held their nose, but they did vote for this.

Felt like I needed to show the president's anti-Somali speech because one day people will tell her it never happened, that these words were never said by the American president.
