Our new piece on antifa, and why Trump’s unconstitutional orders designating antifa as a domestic terrorist organization set a dangerous precedent for Canada (and everywhere else)

Trump's Targeting of Antifa is the First Step Down a Dangerous Path
Antifa isn’t an organization—it’s a decentralized anti-fascist ideology. As governments increasingly target it, Canadians must stay informed, speak out, and protect civil liberties.

If anyone wants to talk about Groypers and where they came from, hit me up. I did my graduate work on them in 2019/2020 when they were first emerging and (unfortunately) I’ve been following them ever since

August 12th marked 8 years since the deadly Unite the Right rally in Charlottesville, Virginia. Although time has passed, we will not forget.
In memory of those lost to hate and radicalization, lets start another Unite the Right roundup 🔥🧵 #IgniteTheRight

Lauren Southern trying & failing to become a tradwife shows the massive shift from mid-2010 alt-right girls to the present day role of women in the far-right. The alt-right wasn’t pro-woman but it let a few female grifters slip through the cracks

Fat Vance is now canon
Trump posted this, but more importantly we’d like to remind everyone these posts get saved into the library of congress so people hundreds of years from now can also view them. Trump just included the fat JD Vance meme into that record.

Excited to share the little interview I did with Sara Petersen in preparation for her piece for Bustle. It’s been 4 years since I published my original article for @praeyesright.bsky.social on why gen z women are attracted to the tradwife lifestyle, and the #tradlife movement continues to change

Also, how are organizations, corporations, and lawmakers responding to the Trump Administration and Republicans' ongoing efforts to erase and criminalize the transgender and queer community.
