Turning Point USA made a literal watch list of professors, primarily women, queer folks and people of color, and made us targets of political violence. I’ve received hate mail and harassment and death threats off and on for nearly a decade in part due to that man’s organization so 🤷🏽♀️

I have thought about this a lot since I lived here. The clearest example to me (apart from the appalling lack of any kind of fashion sense) is the rampant spread of eating disorders, particularly among men, cloaked in the language of bio-hacking.

Fugazi - 'Turnover' - Washington DC - August 7, 1993
The concert was a benefit called "Concert For Justice" and commemorated the 30th anniversary of Martin Luther King Jr.'s historic March on Washington. It was performed outdoors at the Sylvan Theater on the Mall.

We remember history till the last of the people who made it die. The great Arab historian Ibn Khaldûn used this to explain why dynasties last 4 generations. The first does it. The second sees it done. The third runs on momentum. And the fourth, clueless...falls. About a lifetime's worth of years.
We are losing the last of the generation who understand just how evil actual fascism is, how hard it is to rid the world of authoritarian governments once they’re established, and how hard it is to build a successful alternative. www.doomsdayscenario.co/p/what-we-lo...
What We Lost When We Lost the Greatest Generation
It's no coincidence that democracy is backsliding in the US exactly eighty years after the end of World War II.

WORLDWAR: IN THE BALANCE is the first of a 4-book series (8 in the universe all told) where the aliens invade in late May 1942, when WW2 is as even as it ever was. They probed us 800 years earlier, but we're a bit more advanced than they expected. A bit.

W.E.B. Du Bois on Robert E. Lee:
“Either he knew what slavery meant when he helped maim and murder thousands in its defense, or he did not. If he did not he was a fool. If he did, Robert Lee was a traitor and a rebel–not indeed to his country, but to humanity and humanity’s God.”

Really shocked that an admin filled with podcasters, social media influencers, reality TV participants, indicted felons, crypto bros, drunks, Fox hosts, drug addicts, weirdos, and unqualified ass kissing toadies can’t keep their shit together for 24 consecutive hours.

Defending copyright is very important at a time when the impetus to alter it skews toward corporate power, away from the individual. It's a powerful protection for creators and philosophical or abstract arguments against it are often distasteful in how they weirdly align in action w those in power.
