If anything, where Trump et al are taking the U.S. is infinitely worse than where Egypt is.
Egypt’s footprint on the world is not nearly as damaging as that of the U.S.

From from about 2002-2018, I wrote dozens of opinion essays for The Washington Post, New York Times, International Herald Tribune (now merged into NYT) about Egypt and the importance of human rights, feminism, freedom of expression, etc.
I can now replace "Egypt" with "USA" as comment on today

I also now know, having lived in the U.S. for 25yrs, that most white people in the U.S. would rather hear comparisons with Russia, Hungary, other "white" autocracies than Egypt or a place led by Black or Brown autocrats because even under authoritarianism, racism is a thing

I won’t share RFK Jr.’s lies about autism.
It’s disgusting and dangerous.
If he had a shred of decency, he would apologize and resign.
Autistic people contribute every day to our nation’s greatness.
To every kid with autism, I’m in this fight all the way for you.

Anarchism is freedom - violence is not freedom but sometimes, violence is what we must go through to gain freedom
Freedom is a dance that needs to be unfettered - an act of total abandon - to express that freedom....

Back In Action is such a not good movie. It's so very not good, at all. Not even a little. How did such a stacked cast make such a not at all good movie????

We may very well need to start k-wording menfolk. To "balance the humours", as it were. Reach some sense of equilibrium. Then we can talk about reconciliation & restoration.

Spotify just sent me a confirmation email in Zulu... Is that something they're doing for all S.African subscribers? Bc I didn't tell them that's my preferred language (I do like it tho. Slow as hell in reading, and the cadence isn't quite what I'm used to as a bad Xhosa-speaker, but still).

That fourth one seems to be the most versatile. I've had exactly none of these very specific things as a non American.
