I have hesitated on speaking about the abundance agenda and it’s managed democracy viewpoint of American rights and the population but at this point, I think it must be talked about that the Neoliberals are authoritarians who wish to manage democracy not have a democracy.

When I was placed on the Professor Watchlist in 2021, people sent death threats about my children. I had security officers monitor my 8yo at school.
Where is all the outrage for those of us who have been targeted for years? Where is the outrage for our families?
My own colleagues are silent.

I hope people understand that the anomaly here aren’t the conditions—the conditions are very typical—the anomaly is that they put a number of documented workers from a high-income country in those conditions. This is how people are treated in custody routinely
korean reporting is nightmarish on the conditions Korean workers were contained in

Sean Hannity, shockingly, says on-air just now that he doesn’t want to rush to judgement on the motive of the man who assassinated Charlie Kirk.

We have a bit of a natural experiment here. Compare the tone, quantity and duration of Charlie Kirk coverage with that of the two Dem lawmakers gunned down in their homes in Minnesota 6 months ago. May be revealing.

I think for JK, she sees womanhood as a status thing and a consolation prize for AFAB bodily suffering.
Which. You have to be REALLY rich (and white) to experience womanhood as a privilege category.
You have to be SUCH an insulated and wealthy little princess for that to be a reward.

the voting rights act is, in its entirety, obviously constitutional under the 15th amendment, which gives congress broad and proactive authority to stop racial discrimination in voting. and you know it is obviously constitutional because roberts has had to invent entire new doctrines to gut it.
The Supreme Court knocked down one of the two pillars of the Voting Rights Act in 2013 in the Shelby County case. It has now gone out of its way to consider whether it should knock down the other, by rescheduling arguments in a case it could have resolved in June under existing precedent.

This is why the “peaceful protest” distinction does not matter - the pigs will fire at you & beat you either way. All you’re doing is playing into the state’s narrative of “good” vs “bad” protesters.

LAPD is now launching tear gas into the crowd outside federal building
Tear gas at 430 pm. @mayor.lacity.gov sent LAPD to clear the streets 4 hours before curfew.

Content warning: blood, serious head injury. A woman was run down and trampled and clubbed by LAPD officers on horseback. She appears to be seriously injured and bleeding from the head as an officer drags her limp body along the pavement.
