I keep returning to Astra Taylor's construction (the title of her fantastic book) "Democracy may not exist, but we'll miss it when it's gone." It's really the perfect way of explaining liberalism's false but necessary promises

Fuck you of you think trans rights should be sacrificed "for the good of democracy".

The anti democracy machine is the anti-trans machine. Get that through your skulls.

Ein Mord wird in Liebe umgedeutet. Und dazu ein herzerwärmendes Weihnachtsbild. Hier werden männliche Gewaltexzesse normalisiert: Männer sind so. Man zeigt Liebe und dann stirbt halt jemand, dumm gelaufen. Diese verdammte Gewaltkultur tötet Frauen. Und, ganz wichtig: ist auch für Männer entsetzlich.

It’s infuriating to me that I need to evaluate media to determine whether it’s AI generated now. The great “time saver” technology wastes incalculable time and energy for people who want to retain their grasp on reality

Once you start thinking of AI as a war on humanity, on human thought, on human inquiry, on human labor, on nuance and critical thinking, it slots in pretty seamlessly with the right wing ideological project, oligarchical political projects, big tech's political projects, etc

Sehr guter Thread!
Pinker war mal ein wirklich prägender Denker. Jetzt hat er sich in seltsame anti-progressive Kulturkämpfe verstrickt und schimpft auf Klimaschutz. Hier ein schmerzhaft schlechtes WELT-Interview. Atmen wir tief durch und sehen wir uns das mal an. (Thread)

They just gutted Teen Vogue which had top notch political journalism. The media is continuing to purge any sort of political dissent to Trump and the oligarchs.

I listened to the Tucker/Fuentes interview and I know I shouldn't be but I'm always surprised by how completely unoriginal this kind of stuff is. Just reheated David Duke bullshit, not a single new thought to be found

Yesterday, I heard doctors speak who had recently been on the ground in Gaza with Doctors Without Borders.

They shared videos and photos.

It was…crushing. I can’t find the words to tell you how harrowing and devastating their testimony was.

They, and their Palestinian colleagues, are heroes.

google is shit but it will still tell you that the term ANTIFA was invented about 100 years ago in Europe. Like in Italy and Germany. The French Resistance called themselves ANTIFA.

This is all in history books freely available at your local library.

Vorschieben, Frauen & Mädchen schützen zu wollen, als würde sexualisierte Gewalt vor allem von Migranten ausgehen, ist so hanebüchen wie perfide. Es ist rassistisch und misogyn zugleich - und eine klassische Erzählung von Rechtsextremen, die im Übrigen nicht auf "Schutz", sondern Besitzanspruch fußt

Ich kotze. „Fragen Sie mal Ihre Töchter“, entgegnet Merz einen Journalisten, der nachfragt, ob eine Entschuldigung angemessen wäre.

Zur Erinnerung: Junge Frauen haben die CDU kaum gewählt. Die Merz-Regierung macht keinerlei Gleichstellungspolitik.

Aber Frauen für Rassismus instrumentalisieren.
“Ich habe gar nichts zurückzunehmen”

- sagt #Merz heute zu seiner “wir haben im Stadtbild noch dieses Problem”-Äußerung in Bezug auf Migration.
