Dictators can't be appeased. Co-optation means subordination and leads to legitimization of authoritarianism. Not that hard folks!

Why would any bright student come to the U.S. to study?

Once again, my fellow nerds, I am begging you to remember that giving into bullies only guarantees they'll be back.

You've got to punch Biff Tannen in the face, McFly, or he'll rule over you forever.

"Look, not in a racist way, but some groups of people are just naturally designed for farm work. Why would anyone think that's racist"

Right-wingers are so insecure and covetousness that after they gathered public goods, land, economy and education for themselves they wanted the one thing we had: the story of oppression.

They want this more than anything else b/c of the powerful narrative & culture we created from it.

NY high school grad detained by ICE released Editor’s note: The video aired before it was announced that Yeonsoo Go would be released. NEW YORK (PIX11) — Yeonsoo Go, the Scarsdale High School honors graduate who was detained by IC…

Update: she’s been released. pix11.com/news/local-n...

Law firms, universities, media companies, and now banks. If people don’t understand what’s happening to our country, it’s because they don’t want to.

Purdue student detained by ICE and taken to troubled Louisiana holding facility Yeonsoo Go, 20, was detained after her immigration hearing in Manhattan and taken away by ICE agents.

Go, a college student, has a dependent visa (her mother, an Episcopal minister, is here on a religious worker visa), which doesn't expire until Dec. But when she tried to renew it early, ICE nabbed her and sent her halfway across the US to a detention center.

“The more I learn about genocide, the more shocked and embarrassed I am by my own ignorance. Once I actively tried to be better informed about genocide, the picture in Gaza became terrifyingly clear” — powerful and brave personal essay by my NYU colleague Lihi Ben Shitrit for @forward.com

Resist math!

Goes without saying that in addition to economics there are serious (and more dire) ethical, social and cultural consequences of xenophobia.

The economic impact of xhenophobia.

So the radical leftists’ plot must go something like this:

The Democrats had the files and tampered with them, but didn’t use them during the election. Now that Trump is president, they want the files to become public to falsely incriminate Trump

Authoritarians never take responsibility. Never!

Reminds me of someone 🤔

Authoritarians never take responsibility. Never!

Our economy is fine. We put great numbers!

This is awful. Reliable economic data is a key strength of the US economy.

When Argentina and Greece faked economic data it contributed to major crises.

I don't think Trump will be able to fake the data given the procedures. But there is now a risk plus an awful appearance.
