It’s the lack of self-awareness of some of these people that gauls me. They are not unintelligent. In fact quite the opposite. But yet, so blinded by ideology and politics that they forget to look at their place in holding our society and government up.

a good part of me thinks that in addition to everything else, the reason they are scrubbing these stories is they do not want disadvantaged kids to believe they can aspire to anything other than their designated “black” or “hispanic” or “woman” job
This profile has been scrubbed from the site. Rose Ferreira grew up without reliable electricity, immigrated to NY, then survived homelessness and cancer on her way to NASA. She was so moved by images from the Webb telescope she wept. This is what’s at stake

But here’s the thing: I’d rather be unsuccessfully decent than successfully evil.
