The mass deportation of undocumented people was one of Hitler’s largest coercive policies before the war. This set off a chain of events which can give us a useful perspective on where we are now.

A massive problem today is the uneven distribution of shame. Some of us are running dedicated on-site shame servers 24/7 while others have no access to shame at all, even though they desperately need it. What we need to do is put shame in the cloud

This is something to think about.
Conflict is inevitable. If you do any sort of organizing, you’re going to work with people you don’t like.
Learn to manage conflict. Both between you and someone else, and between other people.
The beautiful part is that working through conflict together can actually build stronger bonds.

Good comment.
It’s funny how Elon Musk has no problem with Chinese regulation, which is much stricter than European regulation.
Have you ever seen him call for the abolition of the CCP?

"[I]f that you wait for certain victory to act, you’ll never do anything. Change starts with smaller actions, with going against the odds. And the strangest possibilities can sometimes lead to the biggest gains. So open every door you can to the future that you want to see."
I wrote about how no one knows for sure what's going to end this nightmare, but the possibilities are expanding, and we can help them along. Includes some thoughts on the Hola Massacre, the Falklands War, and Watergate (because extrajudicial killing, an unprovoked war, and presidential impeachment).
This may be the last time
I don't know exactly what will end Trump. And neither does anyone else.

This is an incredibly dense analysis of misogyny and its functions. Excellent yet chilling read.
I wrote about "Quiet, Piggy," natalist movements, the denigration of women in authoritarian societies, the ways that women were treated not so long ago in the workplace (including me), and how you can push back against all that.
Quiet, Piggy
Trump's relentless campaign against women has shifted U.S. culture.

If I’m understanding this correctly, X is owned by a white nationalist who pays poor people of color in developing countries to pretend to be working class white Americans to scare other white Americans into being afraid poor people of color from developing countries are going to ruin America?
