And then even when it is lent, it’s almost always very quickly snatched back, too often violently.

I look around at my sister’s, mom, staff, and black women in our community at large even folks that I’ve disagreed with and can’t say enough about how much of a miracle you all are. 🖤 5/

simultaneously place ceilings on possibilities.

Not to mention how the spectrum of sexual orientation, gender identity, and expression are often gate kept with zero degree of latitude, respect for personal agency, boundaries, and personal sovereignty lent. 4/

because again we might’ve only grazed the surface.

Also I’m not just stopping at aggressions. It’s truly pervasive how deeply mysoginoir is engrained and gravitational in the way our systems churn to disenfranchise black women, keep them under thumb, place all of the expectations and 3/

To be clear, I don’t even think we scratched the surface in 2020 with what was seen as a moment of racial reckoning. I have many reflections about 2020 that have reoriented me to understanding how much more work, understanding, education, and compassion we have to operate with… 2/

People need to digest how misogynoir shows up in all facets (without exclusion) in their lives. Explore how we except it, condone it, perpetuate it and ignore it’s impact in our society.

Often our responses from pop culture to politics reflect biases rooted in misogynoir. 1/

So a reminder:

It’s not ‘liberals’ saying Hegseth abuses women. It’s his mom.

It’s not ‘liberals’ comparing Trump to Hitler. It’s his vice-president.

It’s not ‘liberals’ calling Musk a liar and a racist. It’s his own child.

For the record.

Republicans Built an Ecosystem of Influencers. Some Democrats Want One, Too. Democrats were badly outflanked online in the election, and progressive influencers are now trying to create networks to be a left-wing answer to Turning Point USA.

How do we have 800 of these articles and none contend with the fundamental issue which is rich liberals don’t want to fund left media, they want to fund liberal media which is bloodless and partisan, by definition. GOP courts its extremes, liberals discipline theirs.

Pretty crazy someone can be charged federally with interfering in an election and those charges get dropped because they win an election.

Americans Have One Very Strange Cognitive Bias Or: How I learned to stop worrying and love The People.

“In 2022, YouGov asked “What percentage of Americans do you think are ___?”

The results were hilarious.

Trans: 21%
Muslim: 27%
Jewish: 30%
Black: 41%
Live in NYC: 30%
Gay or lesbian: 30%

The errors are off by orders of magnitude. The trans estimation by 2,000%.”

The #Resistance Didn't Save Us from Trump. It's Time to Build Something Real Much of the so-called 'Resistance' movement was simply hashtag activism that undermined the reality of the situation and worsened the crisis we now face.

“The #Resistance Didn't Save Us from Trump. It's Time to Build Something Real”

Scathing and much-needed piece, for Zeteo, from Jared Yates Sexton (@jysexton.bsky.social)
