Same-sex marriage is not gay privilege, it’s equal rights.
Privilege would be something like gay people not paying taxes.
Like churches don’t.

A good example of an effort to conceal the crisis of U.S. capitalism and deny Trump is a product of that crisis.
To keep U.S. capitalism's hegemony over the world economy economic and military wars are needed. To do that requires a dictatorship. Wall Street knows trillions of dollars are at stake.

There must be an ideological crisis in the U.S. armed forces because they all swear to uphold and protect the U.S. constitution. Unlike Trump, most take that oath seriously.
As Trump shreds constitutional rights the U.S. heads towards open class war as workers organize.
Struggle will decide.

And all that spot of awkwardness around stamps, tea, insurrection and massive global warfare in the 1760s/70s/80s
It's hard to overstate the extent to which high government debt can bend politics out of shape.
The reform crisis in the 1830s, Chartism in the 1840s, the General Strike in the 1920s, austerity and rationing after 1945 - all were linked to the politics of public debt.

In simple terms: about 5% of all govt revenue went on debt service circa 2010-19. Now it’s more like 9%.
Higher debt interest is a tough political problem: it means just maintaining non-debt interest spending requires more tax revenue.
But the public pay more without seeing any upside.

And you thought the left was censorious. How about actual censoring?
I was just told that I have to remove “climate” from the title of an ongoing grant if I want to keep it. And publications from that grant cannot include “climate” and other forbidden words. I can’t believe I’m writing this from the United States of America. #AcademicSky
Just received an email saying that it's not advisable to include the following words in future applications for research funding to the US DOT. Here we are.

Given the literal definition of deportation is removing a foreigner or noncitizen from the country, we - journalists, media orgs - should probably all stop referring to the ‘deportation’ of a 2 year old US citizen. It’s NOT a deportation.
I’m not sure what it is. A kidnapping?

Mass layoffs & product shortages are predicted to be coming soon to the US as the consequences of Trump's tariff policies begin to hit, layoffs likely to start in late June and continue until Trump is removed. Interest rates also expected to hike alongside an expected recession. #3E
