The emerging corporate consensus on pre-emptive capitulation to authoritarianism is bad news for universities bc those people are our trustees.
If we've learned anything this year it's that we should put little faith in their avowed commitment to free speech, we'll have to fight to defend it

Democrats' immigration policy has pretty consistently always been "whatever the Republicans were advocating about twenty years ago".
People really don't appreciate just how far right the Democratic party has moved on immigration.

the border was already incredibly inhumane and cruel under biden's admin. in his last months in office, he has decided: it is not cruel enough. bsky.app/profile/nerd...
before:
- restricted asylum after 2,500 migrants per day
- daily numbers had to average below 1,500 per day for a week to lift the asylum restriction
now:
- less than 1,500 for nearly a MONTH to lift restriction
- all CHILDREN are counting toward the number

It is so offensive to me that Harris is still pushing the debunked narrative about Oct 7 rapes. This is genocidal propaganda designed to counter the vast # (a majority) of Americans supporting an arms embargo. Both candidates in this election are unhinged from reality, morality, and constituents.

When they want you to be Black, they'll be like "one drop".
When they don't, they'll be like, "well, when did she become Black?"
That's why we don't let anyone else define Blackness.

This is a fantastic interview and also one of the most direct and honest spotlights I've ever seen a trans person get in a major media organization. Which is a bummer, itself, but doesn't take away by how meaningful this is. Attacking Musk's hatred in such a direct, clear way is POTENT.
