“Politically Correct” “Cultural Marxism” “CRT” “DEI” Is it any wonder that The Heritage Foundation & the Religious Right movement were founded over the IRS revoking Bob Jones University’s tax exempt status — for refusing students in interracial relationship (It’s always about white supremacy)

It’s bad out there!

right wing think tanks are making thinly veiled threats of political violence, the Supreme Court has neutralized the regulatory power of broad swaths of government, and the fate of the executive branch depends on whether the 81 year old atop it can learn to breakdance or something. Happy July 4th

It really should.

Criticism of Biden on this score is dishonest unless we note that Trump can't get his facts straight (either because he lies intentially or because he can't tell truth from fiction) and that he cannot control his outbursts. Biden is honest and sane, which should count for a lot more than it does.

This is particularly important to understand because Trumpist authoritarianism is the descendent of Jim Crow far more than say Hitler or Pinochet or Orban, and it's going to look a lot more like 1930s Mississippi than 1930s Berlin.

For most of its history, America hasn’t been a democracy, by any meaningful definition of the term! This isn’t some It Can’t Happen Here shit, in a way, it’s already happened. It just may not have directly affected you.

Library funding is almost always justified through patron numbers. The more people a library serves, the more funding it gets. So even if you don't regularly use a public library, get a library card. It costs you nothing and helps everyone in your community.

today is my NINETEEN YEAR anniversary working at my local library In honor of that, I ask you to get a card to your local public library today! If you ALREADY have a card to your local public library, check out their digital resources! Their summer programs! And yeah, they have books too.

We can either have the Earth or we can have capitalism, but we can't have both.

Google’s emissions are up 48% in 5 years. Microsoft’s are up 30% since 2020. Those soaring figures are being driven by mass investments in data centers to power AI tools. Generative AI is a climate disaster and data center expansion must be stopped.
