This is where we are now: An elementary school at Fort Campbell has removed all books from its library that so much as *allude* to slavery or the civil rights movement.
The wholesale erasure of history in real time.

Old friend just laid off by USDA, 1 mos short of his probationary period as senior researcher. Brilliant person who left a tenured faculty position several yrs ago to join USDA. Bright early-career researchers also being laid off. USDA is terminating a generation of highly-qualified scientists.

Not all of it can be broadcast online, but weβve had hundreds of people showing up to our trainings, mobilizations, and more.
Keep going. Tyranny is eroded by a sea of small acts. Everything matters.

Itβs a bit of a wild take to me to not do the right thing because a stranger on the internet rubbed you the wrong way nah? βI was GOING to help people and protect people but I saw a rando TT and i didnβt like itβ

I was able to correct my assumptions - for example about adoptees. Saw world events from the people who lived them. Politics was only one small part of my TT experience.

Your two concepts arenβt mutually exclusive.
The TikTok ban permanently reshapes the ideological tilt of the online creator landscape towards the right. Cheering for it in any way is extremely shortsighted www.usermag.co/p/the-great-...
