Someone I know pointed out (they may have been quoting someone else, but I am not sure) that a lot of people in tech are willing to do things for Claude that they weren't willing to do for junior devs. What an utterly damning statement about the culture of the software industry.

ICE actions are not a radical break but an intensification and extension of bipartisan consensus on the need for punitive immigration policy. Since its post-9/11 creation, people have warned that the tools given to ICE would eventually be turned on citizens.

If anyone was still pretending this isn’t just about excluding trans kids from public life, the Trump administration just opened a Title IX investigation into a Maine school district because a trans student is on a *co-ed* cheerleading squad.

ICE has everything to do with law enforcement.
It's literally the same private prison contractors, running the same private prison facilities, implementing programs designed by the same government officials using the same tactics.
Cops fire tear gas + rubber bullets directly at people's faces too.

Whatever your feelings on law enforcement, understand they don't apply here whatsoever because ICE categorically *has nothing to do with law enforcement*

It's Jan 5th today. US cops will shoot 80+ innocent people before Feb 5th.🤷🏿♂️
This violence level, by far the highest in the developed world, is steady state for US cops

If the DEA had killed 80 innocent Americans in the course of apprehending one drug dealer, there would be riots. But we are so ghoulishly indifferent to the lives and humanity of people abroad that it's barely even part of the conversation.

This is why it's hard to look forward to 2026 knowing this plan is already in motion. A lot more resisting in our future
Phase 3 is complaing about both a) the rising costs of incarceration an additional 10M+ people, and b) the lack of manual agricultural labor now that undocumented immigrants have been expelled from the US. The answer to both will be "prison labor on a scale not seen since US chattel slavery."

In investigative journalism, reporters dig into evidence & present the conclusion *it has led to*.
In extremely online factions, the *belief is held*, & influencers backfill it w/justifications.

Why decline all these chances to defend feminism? Because to participate would be accepting the premise that our rights and humanity are up for debate in the first place.
Once you’ve conceded that it’s reasonable to ask whether women’s equality was a mistake, you’ve already lost.

We really need to start paying attention to this underlying need that is driving the demand for "AI". This is a real human need. We know that because it is making people do things that are objectively not very smart. People will compromise their reasoning and their values to get their needs met.

And the "rich people will be rich again, because they understand financial literacy!" is just not true. We've seen it many times.
First, because as I've said before, there is no such thing as financial literacy. It's a lie. There's no one set of info for making money at all levels. Seriously.

If you are providing me with an education that is low utility in the world then it’s a disservice. My composition class spent four weeks on poetry. I’m sorry, but that only would’ve been useful if I wanted to be a poet. I don’t need to know iambic pentameter in order to be a victim advocate.

A new CNN report uncovers that the IDF knowingly:
•Shot starving Palestinians trying to collect flour
•Bulldozed their bodies into shallow, unmarked graves
•Left them to decompose, scavenged by dogs
•Never documented these murders & tried to hide them
This is what genocide looks like. Horrific.

Some of y'all still don't understand what I mean when I talk about pelicans flying close to the water.
Pelicans use the ground effect to fly close to the water with low effort. Let's say, 36cm above the waves.🤡
Sometimes they even dip below that altitude! But they return to it.

This is why, after they show up with lies and false accusations that cannot be proven, they start complaining about me being "rich" or start complaining about how much time I spend posting exactly what I want and not listening to them. The free Black man is an existential threat to white fragility.

Nothing is more important to the preservation of the white supremacist status quo than silencing Black voices. This is why so many white people are indoctrinated to work overtime to try and silence Black voices. Whether they identify as leftist or MAGA matters not. Our silence is the endgame.

The reason most celebrities do not respond when y'all smear them or troll them is because they want to be popular and they have a brand to protect. I'm not a celebrity. I'm an artist.

To all those who responded to me over the last two years, "Return the hostages," do you still actually think it was about the hostages? How do you feel about being complicit in whitewashing genocide? Will you now have the dignity to retract and call out Israel's apartheid & genocide for what it is?
How AP News whitewashes genocide.
TESTING THE CEASEFIRE??
Israel is *BREAKING* the ceasefire. Do you really think this would be the headline if Hamas killed 24 Israelis?
AP doesn’t even have the integrity to say Israel killed Palestinians. “Are dead” is passive to avoid attributing liability.

It would be helpful if American schools taught kids that Hitler admired US racism and patterned many of his antisemitic laws on our anti-Black laws. Instead, we're teaching the Holocaust less altogether.

Racism is fascism practiced on Black people first.
Hitler based the Nuremberg laws on US Jim Crow. He invaded Russia because he wanted his own California.
The US shifting from a racist country to a fascist country basically means "Start treating everyone like you've always treated Black people."
