Kinda wild that this is like a minor foot note in our media discourse that the president's refugee policy is just blatantly white supremacist. Future gens will look back at this period like "wtf"

BREAKING: in July 2026, *every single one* of the 2,528 refugees admitted in the U.S. were white South Africans. In FY 2026, the U.S. has admitted a total of 10,255 white South Africans, three Afghans (back in November), and nobody else. For reference, the U.S. admitted 100,060 refugees in 2024.

Really weird and sus how this narrative of "Jews are abandoning the Democratic party" is taking hold when (1) there's absolutely no evidence of this and (2) literally the only voting bloc more loyal to Democrats (and more progressive overall) than US Jews is Black women (seriously, look it up).

They aren’t relying solely on harassing people for money via text.

It’s hard to explain but tv was better when you couldn’t watch the show you wanted whenever you wanted to watch it and most of the shows were worse and the TVs were worse and the entire experience was worse, that’s when it was better

p.s., speaking as another Disney employee, though on an infinitely smaller platform: trans kids belong... on the basketball court, and everywhere else they want to be.

the wnba alienating their core audience for the sake of people who wouldn’t watch a wnba game to save their child’s life is a bold gambit, to be sure

This is a disgrace and a disservice to these students. You're forcing them to devalue their own work and abilities by wasting time incorporating "A.i." This is not learning or art. This is deskilling and salesmanship for a corporate product based on theft and pushed by billionaires.

Some of you are still posting AI-generated images, and it’s always tremendously disappointing.

being a billionaire and on the internet all day is crazy to me. if i had even five million dollars, you would not find me online whatsoever.

The ongoing Musk nazi tweets just have me wondering if corporate boards are even a thing anymore

"The tilt of the swastika on their SS uniform is 4 degrees off than what ACTUAL Nazis wore, so perhaps we should cool down the angry online rhetoric."

I think it harms Journalism that the message that the media has sent to us over the last several years is that no matter what a person does it’s impossible to credibly be sure that they are a Nazi.

It would help a lot if a lot of journalists and pundits weren't using Twitter as their assignment editor, several years into its transition into Stormfront.

It is genuinely bizarre that we’ve become acclimatized to right wingers throwing a tantrum every time a black person (particularly a black woman) is cast in something, but are also supposed to pretend that this is not racism but related to some other substantive concern.

Mamdani's supposed fault was calling the Prime Minister of Israel a war criminal, when he is, in fact, facing war crimes charges at the ICC. Trump claimed with no evidence that George Soros was funding Central American migrant caravans, which the Pittsburgh synagogue shooter explicitly believed.

ICE has nothing to so with elections. This is the stuff of secret police.

A new procurement record says ICE wants access to personal data, including names, Social Security numbers, and ethnicity, to investigate in part what the agency calls “voters fraud.” www.404media.co/ice-to-pay-t...

Great question! Also interesting: why no follow-up articles? My guess is because Blue MAGA grifters use the same threats of excessive litigation as MAGA. Sometimes they even use the same lawyers as MAGA. And I'm no longer guessing!

We learned about Chorus a long time ago. Whatever happened to any of those people?

My daughter was 3 when she first told me she wished she was white ‘so she could be pretty’. Three years old. Shit broke my fucking heart like nothing else. It’s the world we’re bequeathing them.

The Man in the High Castle destroyed every swastika prop after filming, so nothing could end up as a souvenir or extremist symbol.

I worked on that set. Every single thing was accounted for every day. A guy tried to take one home and he was fired, barred from the union and almost got charged with hate symbolism. We don't fuck around with it.

Opinion | The White House doesn’t want history at the Smithsonian. It wants fandom.

A report attacking the National Museum of American History would prefer Americans feel a shallow patriotic crush than truly love this country.

BREAKING: Trump just ordered warning signs and exhibits to be installed outside the Smithsonian's National Museum of American History to alert the public that the museum does not, in his view, accurately reflect American history. For the record: It does.

I’m glad that the walls seem to be closing in on Andrew Tate, but it took criminal investigations across three countries, dozens of outspoken victims, and a hit TV show implying he drives boys to murder girls for this to happen—and he still hasn’t been convicted yet. This is why 98% get away with it

People don’t need protection from trans kids. Trans kids need protection from a society that vilifies them, ostracizes them, and incites hate towards them for trying to find acceptance/community. Trans kid have such high rates of suicidal ideation/attempts, and they need all the love and protection.

You actually can fight it. That is absolutely something you can do.
