There has been a rush among centrists like Gavin Newsom and Ezra Klein to brush over the hateful life of Charlie Kirk and valorize the man.

Let me be clear, killing Charlie Kirk was wrong and abhorrent.

We must condemn murder without sanitizing a man who built his empire on hate.

My latest piece.
We Must Not Posthumously Sanitize Charlie Kirk's Hateful Life
Influential anti-LGBTQ+ activist Charlie Kirk was assassinated on Wednesday. While condemning violence is something most can get behind, sanitization of his hate has gone too far.

"A 17-year-old boy who was walking with two teenage girls in the city center laughed when asked about right-wing extremism at their school. "Hitler is glorified big time!" they said, adding that the Hitler salute is now a regular part of their school life."

This should absolutely be a scandal which people lose their jobs over. You'd have to assume that anyone in power actually cares though to think that would happen, which obviously would be a bold assumption in present circumstances.

This seems to be an interesting book for broadening discussions on sex work with students.
I'm thrilled to announce that my first book, Not Sex Work, will be published as part of Routledge's Interdisciplinary Studies in Sex for Sale series in August.

Officers allegedly hurled slurs at him for doing so.

"What we’re witnessing with this new government is a project of right-wing restoration, mirroring similar shifts in other Western countries, & in many ways echoing the realignment in the U.S.: a reassertion of ethno-identity politics, wrapped in a language of political pragmatism – and 'normalcy.'"
