The purpose of the deportations we have been seeing has not been to fight antisemitism, but rather to use antisemitism as a beachhead to eventually do away with foreign students altogether, using Jews as a pretext for a non-Jewish political agenda.

All the fired scientists from the CDC should come over to California, and we should start a new one here. If the fed is going to be this irresponsible, we shouldn't suffer.

A fundamental story of the last decade is that a lot of basically incompetent people got fed up by competent people telling them they were wrong, constructed a more welcoming alternative ecosystem of competency cosplayers, and then somehow turned the whole government over to them.

this right here is why i keep focusing on telling people to lean into the things they can do, to find community, to build community, to focus on what’s in their power, to not worry about doing things the same way as someone else.

Protests and protest organizing is being censored or suppressed in the US. The people who are supposedly anti-Trump but complain or denigrate anyone talking about protests are also helping the regime secure its grip. Now more than ever protests are needed to create solidarity & resistance networks.
