should a brown man be mayor? We asked a eugenicist

they ask politicians like Mamdani if they are communists but they never ask anyone if they are a fascist and that's all you really need to know

The other option is eating it with the back of the fork.

Socialism is a failed system, which NYC currently does not employee, but NYC is broken, and the current system can fix what’s broken about it, which is the system that broke it. “Please, change nothing, for I am rich, and want to remain that way.”

Racialized Grooming Gangs: How Musk and X Amplified Islamophobia and Racism in the UK | TechPolicy.Press If Elon Musk’s direct involvement in proliferating racialized hate online goes unchecked, it will set a dangerous precedent, writes Aishik Saha.

If Elon Musk’s direct involvement in proliferating racialized hate online goes unchecked, it will set a dangerous precedent. Aishik Saha covers key findings from a recent Center for the Study of Organized Hate report.

The normalization of the far-right most often happens not because those ideas become popular, but because mainstream entities go to great lengths to normalize them. We are seeing that now with Big Tech, with X taking the charge in quite a few ways.

false information regarding the majority of sexual assaults in UK being committed by Pakistanis. This community note cited an oped by the Toronto Sun and itself cited no facts or data.

The title reads: "Racialized Grooming Gangs: Elon Musk, X, and Amplification of Islamophobia in the UK".

“And so the Greeks send me this horse, we’re talking about one of the most beautiful horses you’ve ever seen. So big. So strong. Normally they keep this kind of horse for themselves but they were such big fans they said sir, please take our big wonderful horse we’ll even bring it to your house”

Union of Communists of Ukraine: On the War and the tasks of the working class The following statement-analysis by the Union of Communists of Ukraine was originally appeared in Russian language in solidnet.org (27 June 2022). It

It is usually a folly in politics to rely too much on 'correct' statements, but as Trump and Putin essentially attempt to strike a deal to carve up Ukraine, the UCU statement from 2022 feels almost prescient.
