I thought it was a beautifully filmed (I love Darius Khondji) reactionary garbage fire. To me, it was like a too-long live-action South Park episode (derogatory).

I watched that one like

RFK’s Anti-Vax Team Readies Its Next Moves “Their game is, let’s really destabilize trust in the vaccine, and make people really anxious about it.”

What folks who say "normal" families don't need public health interventions mean is that sickness is the appropriate punishment for poverty, and that the government helping those people out is not just financially wasteful but morally illegitimate

Thank you for answering and confirming my hunch.

Please give if you can.

This may be a naive question, but does the official gov't anti-vaccine stance mean that Medicaid will stop covering them? It's clearly eugenicist policy. Does it work by making it so that people who can afford vaccines (and who don't have brain worms) will get them and poor people will be at risk?

infinity of butthole logos

still waiting for intelligent longform cultural criticism with psychomarxist explanation of the "everything is butthole" logorrhea in the AI space

This book is so good and important.

Currently reading “Ed-Tech” by Annie McClanahan & Louise McCune, who see in an anecdote of a dead professor’s course materials used for online teaching a symbol of the broad project of deskilling that’s only accelerated with AI 🔥

In the genocide in Sudan, Canada has a hand in the violence ⋆ The Breach The massacres of civilians in Sudan are being fuelled by Canadian weapons, mining interests, and refugee restrictions. It’s time for Canada to end its complicity

Robyn Maynard, Ismail Adam (VP of the Darfur Diaspora Association) and I wrote this op-ed about Canada's complicity in Sudan, calling among other things for the loophole to be closed that allows Can. weapons to get to the RSF through the US + UAE.

I'll check that out, thank you for the recommendation. I've been thinking a lot about the 1980s, and it sounds like that will be helpful.

I don't know, the fact that many big-budget movies seem to be actively discrediting counter-movements by depicting revolutionary movements as indistinguishable from reactionary ones, and showing both beset by misogyny, opportunism, and/or incoherence seems like it might be a sign of something.

People need food. Market won’t provide it. Government should. It’s literally the whole point.

Has Google announced Google Classic (like Coca-Cola Classic), so people can pay to have less polluted information yet? I'm sure paying a premium to dis-enshittify is coming next.

Re: last repost, I grew up in the 80s hearing about the ways income thresholds and even having two parents at home could get people kicked off already inadequate aid. The war on poverty became a war on poor, working folks long ago.

Hard not to notice that this is describing a landscape where public aid is pretty brutally means tested, and thus it's very, very difficult to climb out of the trap of housing/childcare/healthcare if you aren't supremely lucky

Please give and share if you can.

Local Boycott Target DC Coalition has been picketing the Target store in Columbia Heights for over six months straight urging consumers to spend their dollars elsewhere outside of Target. They are inviting folks in the area to join them on 11/29.

I know people are closely following what's going on the US and the horrors of ICE, but do you know how Canada is quickly and quietly is growing its deportation machinery?

Canada plans to increase deportations by 25 percent over the next two years. 25 PERCENT!!!

Here are 5 other things to know:

Another way out: Finding clarity for resistance Facing a wave of misinformation and the manipulation of algorithms, resistance starts with choosing how we listen, not just how we speak

Social media and many of the places where we get perspectives are a mess with manipulation, conspiracy, and misinformation. Radicals hoping to fight oppression have to be mindful of where we listen and why. I wrote about this and more for @prismreports.org. prismreports.org/2025/11/20/a...

I wrote this essay in the current Sudan issue of Transition Magazine titled "The Politics of Hunger" which argues that the current hunger crisis has been decades in the making. It begins with Nimeiri and looks at US engagement over the decades.

This Unruly Witness

This Unruly Witness is a collection of bold, tender, and illuminating writing on June Jordan’s multidimensional legacy

Brown's account of neoliberal theory is very helpful. (Remember a few years ago people were pretending there was no such thing as neoliberalism 😂) But the idea thst "big capital" only recently "instrumentalized" the state is ahistorical, especially from the p.o.v. of, e.g., slave societies.

Wendy Brown: "[T]he three schools of neoliberalism [Friedman, Hayek, Ordoliberals] share a rejection of robust democracy and of the expansive notion of the political on which democracy rests."
Hope this helps.
