It’s remarkable she even won the popular vote, her finger is so on the pulse!
Hillary Clinton blames TikTok and “totally made up” videos for young people’s views on Israel and Palestine.
She says social media influenced “not just the usual suspects” but also “young Jewish Americans who don’t know the history and don’t understand.”

It's official: 400 redundancies and a campus closure. At-risk staff will get a letter next week. Absolutely no serious consideration of any of the union's counterproposals.

You shouldn’t be mean to people online because if you rationally point out they’re assuming Trump, Turning Point USA and a pack of white Christofascists are acting in good faith to defend free speech in education, they will of course take that on board!

How a 28-year-old stayed home and saved six figures
While many of his peers were starting new lives and leases in big cities, Lamar Mangal chose a different — and increasingly popular — path: to move back in with his father in Milton Keynes, England.

I reckon a lot of the transphobia these days is Gen X men getting to relive their formative years they spent calling gay men poofs and whatnot and fantasising about how they’d “convert” lesbians. They’re so happy they get to use some slurs with the lads again!

“Fascists simply do not care about what is true. In a deep and fundamental way, it just doesn’t matter to them. You can see that even in how Musk set up his analogy. What he posted is not even the plot of The Lord of The Rings! It is the hobbits who ultimately save Gondor, not the other way around”
Brand new at @theunpopulist.net, @polphilpod.bsky.social's fascinating piece showing how Elon Musk's deployment of Tolkien is straightforwardly fascist.
Even by a Strict Definition, Elon Musk Is a Fascist
He is weaponizing Tolkien to promote violence by ‘hard men’ against Asian immigrants

I know a lot of people are whining about Noah Schnapp being a Zionist (ew, but also he’s young so he can learn). But more than anything I just can’t get excited about Stranger Things. Bores me rigid.
