How Trump's campaign of hatred against migrant "invaders" is fueling potential violence
"There's nothing normal about any of this."
Reminder: Six years ago today, a gunman motivated by hatred of immigrants carried out a horrific massacre in Texas. The demagoguery and ideology he cited had been pushed heavily by Donald Trump. www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

Applebaum writes for the Atlantic. So what does this even mean, really?
Do people even remotely realize how many Trump voters made their choice based on their hatred of โcancel culture,โ and that this wouldnโt be the case if it werenโt for the moral panic stirred by the mainstream media?

I recently attended a funeral where an AI wrote and delivered a eulogy from the POV of the deceased and even used her voice, reading it aloud to mourners. It was profoundly unpleasant and the eulogy often made no sense.

Constantly pointing out that the regime is corrupt doesn't do anything. You have to tell people what you plan to do about said corruption. But again, there's no opposition party so we're left with simple narration.

I'd suspect an editor would be scared of putting IPV stories on the front page because that would be a lot of cops being found out.

IPV is political violence and the most common form of terrorism. But because itโs also one of the deadliest forms of gender based violence foundational to patriarchy, it must be treated as romance gone sideways.

If you feel the weather in your bones, this might be why
Meteoropathy is an emerging field that studies physiological reactions to environmental changes, especially barometric shifts.
Some people feel the weather in their bones. A storm rolls in and so do headaches.
For years, this phenomenon was dismissed as imagination or coincidence.
Now, with sharper tools and more data, researchers are taking weather-related symptoms seriously.

The *cities* conversation is a proxy for racism. I think people should stop pretending they don't know this. YEARS ago, I said that "woke" conversations were a REACTIONARY TRAP and to look with suspicion especially on the white people who used the term. I was 1000% vindicated in this.

It comes after weeks of uncertainty around how minors would fit into Florida's immigration crackdown.

Bush Lawyersโ Legal Arguments for Guantรกnamo Bay Paved the Way for CECOT
The Bush administration denied prisoners the right to due process. Now, Trump is doing the same.
After months of outrage, 252 Venezuelans sent from the U.S. to a prison in El Salvador have finally been released. Trump used legal frameworks established by the Bush administration during the so-called โwar on terrorโ to justify his deportation strategy.

We must learn that passively to accept an unjust system is to cooperate with that system, and thereby to become a participant in its evil.
