This is some BS...
The United States Military Academy has just eliminated all Cadet clubs and activities for POC. Most of these have existed for decades like the Society of Black Engineers. They were there when I was a Cadet in 1987. All of the religious ones remain. This isn’t DEI. It’s white Christian Nationalism.

There's a series of commercials airing for a service that delivers charcuterie boards, and there are only white people appearing in them.
I ain't even mad about it. 😂

Six decades later, Star Trek may still be the only franchise based on the ideas that diversity is strength, justice is the measure of civilization, bounty is to be shared, peace is worth the price, and all these things can be achieved.
We need more shows that look ahead and find goodness.

Not only is helping Ukraine positive for the US economy as a whole, it individually helps a bunch of red states.
So naturally, the GOP hates it.

Remember this. We are weaker now. “Trump has groomed us.” Try to hold and speak and advocate what you know is right and true. We’ve already moved so far. Don’t change your standards to accommodate their shameless incompetence & cruelty.

the Democratic Party spends each election cycle courting the right, and every time they lose they create a fictional leftist version of the Democratic Party and claim that’s the version that just lost.

“The left needs to have voices that speak to young people!!”
I know I should keep my mouth shut, but I’ve watched at least a dozen smart, passionate, popular left wing content creators get torn to shreds /by the left/ until they retreat either into obscurity or apolitical content.

I appreciate much of the analysis I’ve seen over the last couple days. I don’t think we can talk about what is sick in politics or media (a lot!) w/o looking directly at billionaires, refusing to shut up about billionaires, and coming for billionaires through policies that chisel away at their power
American billionaires have long placed their thumbs on the scale of democracy—but never like this.
Welcome to the oligarch election.
