when you have anti-DEI proponents openly going after black military officers for recruiting from HBCUs and suing schools for their black and Hispanic enrollment *even after the schools ended any racial preferences* then the only honest label for these people is "segregationist"
I genuinely think we should start calling businesses and schools falling to the anti-DEI movement “segregationists” because they are re-segregating. And earlier rounds of segregationists *also* explained their preferred policy in race-neutral terms (“state’s rights” and “freedom of association”).

I can't fathom why BuzzFeed would sell First We Feast to pursue "AI". Selling a brand with original content in order to push out plagiarized garbage is beyond me. They may as well have gone all in on Hot Ones, instead of propping up their failing business. The A.I. revolution will not be televised.

After the past couple of elections, the self sabotage of the Democratic party, and John Fetterman's party flip, I don't think we can call Dems a separate party anymore, but a planned opposition to their Republican counterparts. We need to accept this reality before we can create real change.

Outside of any ideological debate, I just need the world to be a better place for my own sake, and I think that's going to be a huge factor for a lot of people in the future. It's important we look around our surroundings and do our best to picture what that better world looks like together.

I take back what I said before, the Claims Adjuster is an anomaly in that the powers that be want him to turn on the people around him. This can be seen by his tech bro individualistic memes and manifesto. Creating and weaponizing violence is still intended, just not against the CEO's.

The CEO sh**ter isn't an anomaly, the insurance company has been causing harm to millions, and they didn't even pause the meeting the CEO was going to. This is the intended result of their policies, just like the Trump supporters caught in the crossfire. Just another sacrifice for their death cult.

I support the trans community because who you are can't be wrong. The safety of trans communities is the safety of all communities. I will do whatever I can to help support our trans friends.
My guess is that a lot of trans people will be feeling a ton of stress and worry over SCOTUS today.
If you are a cis person, quote this and say why you support trans people and what you are willing to do to support us if the government comes for us.
