This is a trap to make not having an education acceptable. Especially at a time when we need teachers, doctors, lawyers, and other professionally trained people. Don't fall for it.

I lost my job, I can't afford turkey or pie, and my kids have measles. But at least I'm not seeing any trans people in the Macy's parade.

This piece by @rtraister.bsky.social is like an antidote to snake venom. Read it and it will save your life. The backlash to “me too” was never about moderation it was about submission. Feminism has not gone too far. The world of men simply moves at the pace of a glacier from its Neanderthal past.
“There are no clean demarcations between feminism and its backlash and the backlash to the backlash, between progress and regress. It was always fanciful to conceive of progressive victories as permanent, just as it was a shortsighted fantasy that edgelord heterodoxy would remain cool.”
Me Too Forever
Why the backlash was so short-lived.

Love to have an early voting electorate bigger than the population of Denver (h/t @ldpreload.com)
Early voting is complete in New York City! What we know:
735,317 people have voted.
That's more than four times the early total in 2021, and it's 67.5% of the early voting total in 2024.
