I hope everyone on here talking about 'occupying private property is wrong and the police response is warranted' realizes that they're publicly admitting they would have opposed the Civil Rights Movement

This has to be the darkest day I’ve ever experienced as an academic. Universities ordering physical violence against the students to whom we’ve been entrusted to educate. Again and again. It goes against everything I believe in. I feel disgusted by my vocation.

I think about this every day now

Jerry Seinfeld is on the New Yorker Radio Hour blaming 'the extreme left' & 'PC crap' for why there are no sitcoms anymore. Not streamers or any systemic reasons that we *just* saw at play with the WGA strike. Just 'The wokes won't let us make comedy anymore.' Absolute brain rot.

Breaking: Kristi Noem has lost Catturd.

In case anyone was on the fence, Kristi Noem decided to prove she's utterly vile.

As soon as Trump began his big lie in November 2020, I started calling it a slow-motion coup attempt. My betters told mme I was hysterical--until J6. I imagine they'll say the same now, when I say the same about SCOTUS & immunity: slo-mo coup attempt.

I’m a Jewish student at a university where students today held a peaceful protest. What was most reminiscent of Nazi Germany was watching a force of state troopers in riot gear take over our campus.

There is, and there can be, a wide range of opinions on the university protests. But unleashing police violence on them is wrong in every possible way.

Patrick Quinn Atlanta News First Hey Noah Smith 🐇🇺🇸🇺🇦 -- if masks during protests are a 'dead end for the left' what are masks for the cops arresting philosophy professors?

The. Accuracy.

9/ When one of the richest men in the world uses his own private global media platform to selectively amplify anti-democratic voices, and to prey on those he does not like, that is not “free speech.”

That’s personal psychological weakness, enabled by systemic plutocracy.

10 Years.

Justice Kagan just noted a fact we reported in Slate: In the short time that Idaho has been allowed to enforce its abortion ban against women who need emergency termination, SIX women have been airlifted to another state for care that's illegal in Idaho. slate.com/news-and-polit…

May the 420 be with you!

This is my yearly rant. My father survived the OKC bombing. He was on the 7th floor when it was attacked. If all you talk about today is the “Oklahoma Spirit” and say “never forget” but don’t talk about how the GOP is now carrying McVeigh’s flag you’re doing it all wrong.

This is infuriating! Does USC not recognize the morbid irony of offering a minor in resistance to genocide and then not allowing the schools valedictorian, who studied this, who has worked hard to earn that moment, to speak during an ongoing genocide? We've really seen it ALL

If courts can bring back laws from the 1800's, black people are in trouble! #TeamDl
