America Undone: How Our Inability to Confront Racism Will Be Our Self-Destruction

Professor @esglaude.bsky.social joins me to discuss why America has been unwilling and unable to confront white supremacy & how Trump is the inevitable, destructive result.

We have to be honest as we assess why so many Americans made this tragic choice. If we refuse to confront the underlying truth — that racism and greed occupy the throne in this country — it is the equivalent of sticking your head in the sand and believing that you’re safe.

Media, none of these news stories or polls about Trump voters being sad about the economy matter a damn unless they also say “and I’ll never vote Republican again”

What do these corporations have in common?

Netflix
Ford
Tesla
T-Mobile
Duke Energy
DISH Network
Metlife
Dominion Energy
United States Steel

In recent years, they all paid their execs more than they paid in taxes.

This is what a corporate-rigged system looks like.

As a journalist, my job is to help humans connect with each other and with the truth.

I do not see the journalistic value in engaging with platforms that are flooding the zone with fake bots and trying to manipulate human interaction.

It feels antithetical to the aims of journalism as a whole.

I don’t think it is journalistically responsible for CNN to quote a chatbot’s responses to me as fact ‼️‼️‼️‼️

Y’all! The media is not ready!!!

We are not ready!!!!
Thanks for reposting this! I read the CNN article and actually believed the bot was created by a team of “10 white men, 1 white woman, and 1 Asian male.” Just wondered how a SW engineering team at Meta could be so predominantly white (only *one* Asian male?!) instead of thinking the AI made it up.

I wish Liv didn’t get shut down because I’d be interested if different types of people would get different responses tone based on their race / gender if they used the same prompts.

The way the bot changed its story about its own BLACK identity depending on who talked of it was.. wow.

I asked Liv about the ethics of intracommunal use of the enwerd.

We discussed the strength she draws from her grandmother and her grandmother’s grandmother - who she said was enslaved.

This has been their aim all along, and SCOTUS’s decision ending federal agency Chevron deference opened the door to this. Pay. Attention.

Thanks to increased IRS funding:

- Average wait times for callers are down by 25 minutes
-$1.1B in back taxes from millionaires have been recovered
-Taxpayers have saved millions by using IRS Direct File

Remember this as the GOP tries to slash the agency's funding.
