IMAGINE most people not at all knowing you even exist and then writing a piece like this for the public to consume. Silence was *right* there.

Ah yes, the famously coherent and absolutely existing alliance between the 'wokes' and the 'Islamists' - bahahaha.

Taking aside the blatant racism and xenophobia of the "Islamist" label, how anyone can see any logical connection between 'woke' beliefs and what supposed 'Islamists' belive is entirely beyond me. A vacuum of logic.

Ah, the famous Woke/Islamist alliance whose logical Wenn diagram is the very opposite of a full circle. Grow up.

Nurul Amin Shah Alam crossed oceans to flee unimaginable violence, only to die here — where he should have been safe.

The cruelty is endless.

Netflix Backs Out of Bid for Warner Bros., Paving Way for an Ellison Takeover

The richest man owns X.

The second and third richest men control Google.

The fourth richest man owns Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp.

The fifth richest man owns The Washington Post.

And now the sixth richest could soon take over both Paramount and Warner Bros.

See the problem here?

US farmers are rejecting multimillion-dollar datacenter bids for their land: ‘I’m not for sale’ Families are navigating the tough choice between unimaginable riches and the identity that comes with land

Last month, a Pennsylvania farmer rejected $15M from data center developers to sell his farmland.

Another in Wisconsin turned down $80M.

America's farmers and others across the country are pushing back on Big Tech.

This is what integrity looks like.

US citizen shot and killed by federal immigration agent last year, new records show Shooting death of Ruben Ray Martinez, 23, in Texas was not publicly disclosed by Department of Homeland Security

An ICE agent shot and killed 23-year-old U.S. citizen Ruben Ray Martinez in Texas almost an entire year ago and hid the shooting from the public.

It’s only now coming to light, 11 months later, due to Freedom of Information Act requests.

What else is the regime hiding from us?

I can't get over this number: in 2007, there were 360,000 newspaper jobs. Now, there are 80,000. "My local paper sucked!" Sure. What sucks even more? The void. "I get all my news from the Guardian!" No, the Guardian doesn't report on your town council, your school board, local cops.

This is excellent!

"Anti-alarmists invariably conflate talking in a calm tone with being rational. Any expression of fear or anger from Cassandras is proof they’re not to be taken seriously.

But in some circumstances, fear and anger are the rational reaction"

instead of being on Twitter you should read a book

Laughs hysterically in taking 3 hours to write 660 words of a book introduction.

One begins to wonder how brilliantly useful a technology is if it requires obfuscation and brute force to encourage use...

This.

As academics, we should know better than anyone to STAY IN OUR LANE.

‘No one deserves this’: Beaverton father dies after deportation to Mexico A Beaverton family is grieving after the father, who was detained and deported by ICE, has now died.

This 53 year old man who lived in my neighborhood w/no criminal record & who had been in the US for 30 years, was detained and thrown into a cold cell for days, caught pneumonia and COVID there and deported.

He finally died.

I am so angry.

I genuinely think he is not in the same room anymore as the rest of us.

What gets me is that this is just obviously dumb. Why are we listening to these people?

Oh 100%. The bit that especially grates is Zuckerberg is taking advantage of hard of seeing/blind community by getting them to defend these as legitimate while at the same time absolutely NOT giving an S about the community. He could have released it as a disability aid only. No growth in that tho..

I get you. I guess I sort of cannot let go of the possibility for my own sanity (and if Denmark could essentially introduce a trademark for your voice, body and face to combat this & if Trump's antics are pushing EU to be even firmer re tech firms, maybe there is a chance somewhere!?). Sigh....

I didn't read the piece as her being at all optimistic about it. I more read it as 'WTF look at all these figures, we *must* do something!' advocacy. As she says, the system is stacked against us.

Incredible opinion. It holds that the common ICE tactic of jumping out of an unidentified rental vehicle and seizing suspected noncitizens while masked violates the Fourth Amendment because the *manner* of the seizure is incompatible with a free society governed by the rule of law.

But the fact that they even thought of doing this in the first place is what blows my mind!

My one comfort in life is that while I am indeed a business school professor, I am NOT this type of business school professor. For shame.

I say this regularly: business school colleagues, for love of God, think before you act (and before you embarass the rest of us).

Retaliating by putting up PDFs of To Kill A Mockingbird and Beloved.

On February 19, 1942, President Franklin D. Roosevelt signed E.O. 9066, authorizing the forced relocation & incarceration of more than 125,000 Japanese Americans, solely because of their heritage.
