Yes, Pete Hegseth and Michael Waltz violated all sorts of national security protocols by sharing military secrets with a journalist. But at least they were White when they did this.

Reminder: If youโ€™re sharing information, protect yourself. Documents and communications often contain hidden watermarks, intentional typos, odd punctuation, inconsistent spacing, or stylized phrasingโ€”all designed to uniquely identify the source.

โ€œThose nasty Canadians are ripping us off and are controlled by Mexican cartels. Theyโ€™re poisoning us with fentanyl and need to become the 51st state or they will pay a high priceโ€ is a belief that literally ZERO Americans had six weeks ago. Itโ€™s entirely invented from scratch.

If thereโ€™s one thing we could do that would make a real difference, itโ€™s convincing libs in โ€œblue statesโ€ that they are idiots for calling rural people idiots.

The Big Balls I Knew

How did the meek, video game-loving Imagine Dragons fan I roomed with last semester become the heartless DOGE bro who tried to cut off funding to our university?

I just think if somebody were to slap JD Vance across the face just one time, heโ€™d probably straighten up and act right.

Also, โ€œred states.โ€ There is no such thing. That kind of thinking is exactly what got us here in the first place.

Go ahead and go off about how โ€œthis will show โ€˜em,โ€ I guess, but in the meantime, all the marginalized people who live in red states who will suffer for this are watching and learning who not to trust from how glad you are about this.

And in the meantime, the poor, the POC, the LGBT+, living in those red states will suffer the absolute most from such a move, and literally no one in this country who holds any power to end Canadian tariffs will give a damn because these are the groups they want to eliminate anyway.

It will do nothing to convince Trump and his admin to do anything differently. It will only give them another talking point to use as proof that everyone hates them and they were right all along.

Canada targeting red states will do nothing to convince the people living in/governing those states that they shouldnโ€™t support Trump. It will only embolden them to go harder for the guy.

They have been planning the downfall of journalism for decades now, ever since they started buying up small and mid-sized papers and shuttering them. This is only the latest effort at delegitimizing and destabilizing journalism so they canโ€™t be held accountable by the public.

This is what the government did with 120K+ Japanese Americans in 1942.

I know. I was there in those camps.

I wrote three 20-page papers and graded about 70 full-ass articles written by my students in a week and a half. It about killed me, but I am now DONE with the hardest semester so far of my PhD journey ๐Ÿ˜ฎโ€๐Ÿ’จ
