I am so sick of this naive analysis that treats racism as an aspect of identity.

Expressions of racial animus are *behavior*. It is not “writing off a segment of the working class” to condemn *changeable behaviors*, and socialism does not require endorsing every behavior every working person does.

There's a timeline where foreign adversaries turn American weapons back against their owners after deceiving the controlling AIs with poetic allusion. I just want to say that if the concept of poet-warrior bards makes a comeback, I'm okay with that.

I wrote about a new Nazi party that seeks to criminalize all human virtue, and how that means that human virtue is the greatest weapon against the new Nazi project.

The Crime of Human Virtue
Sometimes it really is as simple as good vs. evil. This is one of those times. Human virtue is our great crime against the fascist project; it's also our great weapon against it.
