How 'neurodivergent' became a word for many types of minds "Neurodivergent" is not just a way to describe medical diagnoses like autism and ADHD. It encompasses a range of ways in which people's brains differ from what is considered normal in the U.S.

I am not a "tech critic". I am an antifascist, a feminist, an anticapitalist, an engineer. My criticism of tech flows from my politics and values. Not from a desire to save or destroy tech. Tech is an expression of power and that's what the whole conversation is about.

Trillions of USD.

Maybe if career politicians wouldn't sell out the 99% of us to line their own pockets, we'd have a better distribution.

Some of us were there 84 years ago when we caught the financial world with their collective pants down.

Mark my words, trillions will disappear overnight when the music stops...

Olivia Reingold quote tweeting Variety. The Variety tweet is about John Oliver's piece on Bari Weiss leading CBS News, saying: John Oliver slams Bari Weiss' takeover of CBS News: "I wouldn’t want anyone who led a pure opinion outlet, not even one that I happened to agree with, to suddenly be running CBS News. But it is especially alarming to have someone doing it who has spent years putting out work that, in my opinion, is at best irresponsible and at worst deeply misleading." Reingold then quotes it saying: Why does this sound like John Oliver commenting on……John Oliver

Was waiting to see how Olivia Reingold (who Oliver's piece destroyed almost as much as Bari Weiss) would respond, and you can see the tweet below which also shows she either did not watch his piece, or just didn't understand it, since he actually addresses this point directly.

When they tell you they plan on throwing out the constitution, believe them.

“If you share your knowledge outside the scientific community, then you’re already exerting societal influence, according to Judi Mesman. This isn’t problematic for the prestige of science: ‘Pretending to be neutral doesn’t make sense to me.’”

I'm sooooo gd tired of this fucking kakistocracy.

Just for everyone who has possibly been caught up in the whirlwind of bullsh*t around the FCC violating the law to silence Kimmel, there are basically 2 realms for him to engage in illegal speech. 1 is obscenity. 2 is defamation. [1/4]

Censorship never stops with just one book, one newspaper, one person. The end goal of censorship is always complete control.

For Christ's sake, Kimmel just showed a video of the President's own words.

Stop capitulating. It will never save you in the end.

Let’s be clear about what happened to Jimmy Kimmel Trump’s most brazen attack on free speech yet.

After years of complaining about cancel culture, the current administration has taken it to a new and dangerous level by routinely threatening regulatory action against media companies unless they muzzle or fire reporters and commentators it doesn’t like.

As a forever student of the French language, please say it correctly. Gi-yo-tin. The 'i' makes an 'e' sound (closer to 'teen' for Americans)

Still wild to me it took down services across the board on release.

Are we paying attention yet!? This is exactly why I was crashing out this time last year saying, "History dictates we have 1 decision to make come November."

It really doesn't take much brain power to extrapolate what comes next.

"But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new guards for their future security."

Fascism is not simply politics.

Fascism uses politics as a tool to achieve and maintain absolute power over people.

We don't debate fascism. We fight it.

Know the difference.

How is it political violence if he was not an elected official/politician. He was a hate monger and promoted fascist views. Oh by the way there was another school shooting today, in Colorado, but nobody is talking about that. So we’re still okay with kids getting murdered all the time I guess.

No glitch. More than likely, it was the amount of traffic hitting the web server for Media Matters causing an error. Never worth checking thoroughly though. Too many rabbit holes.

I expected the propaganda but I really thought we'd have at least one night. *Sigh* Its only Wednesday my dudes....

Checked them all, all good. Sounds like an ID10T error to me!

To all of the people posting "political violence has no place in this country," political violence in this country would like a word.

Ah, I suppose. I was thinking it was because of his own stupid actions that this became the end result would classify it. But that's a bit of a stretch.
