When you hire a white man because they’re a white man that’s not identity politics. Identity politics is when you get hired and you’re not a white man. The anti wokeness hysteria was always a backlash to integration of white collar jobs bsky.app/profile/jami...
Hiring a Black woman: “identity politics”

Hiring a white guy for a job that has been held disproportionately by white guys, because he is a white guy: “subverting” identity politics!

(The author of this sentence is Dylan Byers; you will not be surprised to learn that he is a white guy.)

The democrats allowed transphobia to be enacted in to law so they could give Trump 900 billion dollars just as he is flirting with invading Venezuela.

Something something good governance resistance etc.
115 Democrats just voted to codify the first federal trans segregation law.

@bencollins.bsky.social I was not thrilled to see this? Or is it like another layer of the onion?

Something to take into account: almost a third of the Cassidy-Crapo bill focuses on surgery for transgender people. It’s barely even trying to conceal how much this bill is about trans people than it is about expanding health care.

It’s been two weeks since ICE took Yuanxin Zheng from his father. He is six years old. He’s still not home. This has to end.

Misogyny and racism put people's safety at risk and don't lower the cost of living for anyone.

Every Trump rally is a Klan rally.
Trump: "Ilhan Omar, whatever the hell her name is. With her little turban. I love her. She comes in, does nothing but bitch ... we ought to get her the hell out ... she's here illegally."

The crowd in Pennsylvania then starts chanting "send her back!"

I continue to have no sympathy left for whinging about how the public are rude about AI and feel threatened by it when the biggest players in the AI space have spent years very vocally and constantly *threatening the public*

counterpoint: civil war songs have the right to go pretty fucking hard
"As He died to make men holy, let us die to make men free," goes harder than any Civil War song has any right to go.

If only Biden had spent more time complaining about the real problem -- immigrants, who bring obvious and easily demonstrable benefits to US society -- instead of minor issues like everyone dying of an infectious disease or losing their jobs and homes.

Gavin Newsom is wrong, we need to tax the rich.

There are now 2,900 billionaires, and they hold $15.8 trillion.

The wealth of the bottom 50% of the global population, over 4 billion people, is estimated at $3.7 trillion.

The Democratic Party must stand for something.

There’s no telling how many similar stories are not being told for fear of retaliation.

By now, everyone should realize Trump is not going after violent criminals or the worst of the worst—he is terrorizing everyone, including U.S. citizens, and their loved ones.

I am calling for Wilmer’s immediate release from NWIPC—he has NO criminal convictions, he poses no threat to the community, and he urgently needs appropriate medical care since ICE is denying him the treatment he requires.

I am grateful for Wilmer’s willingness to let me share his story.

My constituent, Wilmer, was mauled by an ICE attack dog despite the fact that, as he has consistently explained, he was not resisting arrest or trying to flee—his wife and young children, all U.S. citizens, were forced to watch helplessly as Wilmer was violently attacked and dragged away.

A neat thing about birthright citizenship is how it tests whether a person cares at all about the Constitution. There's no argument against it, birthright citizenship is the unambitious text, the obvious intent of the drafters, and the undisputed way it was followed for the past 150+ years.
I continue to think that Matty coming out against birthright citizenship a few months ago should have been taken as a major warning sign that the group chats have already decided to surrender on this.

In his excellent biography of William F. Buckley Jr., Sam Tanenhaus notes that "as far as white Southerners were concerned, both the Fourteenth and the Fifteenth Amendments weren't really part of the Constitution." In 1957, Buckley called them "inorganic accretions" (p. 380).

The far right has been trying to nullify the Reconstruction Amendments and return us to a pre-Civil War state of institutional oppression and hierarchy for a long time.

conservative christians are “drinking the kool aid” in a mass suicide pact, after shocking new evidence surfaces, proving once and for all, that Jesus was in fact trangender, and they had huge honkers, while also sporting a girthy hog.

Dude. Yes. Alito and Thomas are of course the standout examples, but all of the Republican justices have tells in their writing and their questioning indicating that they are, to varying degrees, marinating their brains in dumb bitch juice
My theory, fwiw, is that Supreme Court Justices are not immune to Twitter brain poisoning. I suspect all six have horrific information environments and have therefore lost the ability to understand the people who don't agree with them.
The part that I can't figure out is what John Roberts thinks he is doing. He used to seem to be a judge who was very attentive to appearances, I think on a theory that you can't draw too much attention to yourself without undermining your ability to continue to shape the law.

The media has cast it as a sex scandal so they're mostly focusing on the smutty texts but it's an extremely straightforward ethics scandal: "If Trump gets elected my boyfriend has a job."

This may not be the most overtly dangerous type of bigot, but they're so insidious. An enlightened "just asking questions" type who is so obsessed with ~understanding both sides~ that they absorb fabricated far-right rhetoric and then their impenetrable undeserved egos lock it in forever.

It's not just that transphobia reduces someone's brain and perception of the world to a viscous slurry, it's that it also generates an entirely hallucinated new reality they slip more into with every breath. A staggeringly severe degenerative brain condition.
Neither did trampling all over the hard-fought and well-established rights of other disadvantaged groups.

Demands advanced by some in the trans rights movement, eg Stonewall again, directly compromised the rights of women and LGB people.
