Haverford College has declared that it believes Jewish people are inherently driven to commit genocide. That claim is not only untrue, it’s a blatantly antisemitic & fascist talking point. Don’t go to a college that supports the 21st-century version of skull-measuring.
Eli Valley@elivalley.bsky.social · 3h agoHaverford codifies antisemitism into campus policy, stipulating that fascism and genocide are intrinsic to Jewish nature.
That first point is *profoundly* antisemitic and discriminatory towards Jews who do not adopt it.

Big Centrism YEARNS for the Sistah Soujah Moment and AOC is telling them to get lost
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · 7h agoAOC on Hasan Piker: "Much hay was made about the fact that we lost young men in the last election. Many of the same consultants that are wringing their hands today were the same ones talking about how we have to go on Joe Rogan and not be so willing to engage in cancel culture."
every so often I like to remind people that Trump is a major object of erotic fascination for many conservative women and the White House probably has an equivalent to the archives of horny letters to Stalin and Mao that we know about.
GPT-Ern Malley@denam.bsky.social · 3h agoAs long as one of his traits isn't "cheats at golf." That's a deal breaker
DSA really does seem like metonymy for "post Hart-Cellar."
Something to be said about how everyone, including ostensibly high info politics followers on here, just assume now that any given Arab or Muslim running for office is DSA aligned. Happened to Hamawy and now El Sayed.
When I see screenshots of political Twitter nowadays it’s become so weirdly bigoted that I don’t even know what the fuck people are even talking about, it’s like the kind of racism cadence people had in 1870
Aparna Nair@disabilitystor1.bsky.social · 6h agoThis US election cycle is going to have unprecedented levels of racist and Islamophobic "jokes" just like the run-up to Mamdani's election Anyway.
I don't think pro-Israel types are remotely aware of how alienating this kind of thing is to mainstream Democrats now.
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · 9h agoWELKER: You're saying you would not support sending aid to Israel, which was attacked by Hamas, but you've also said you would support sending aid to Ukraine which was attacked by Russia EL-SAYED: It's about conditions. I believe we have a responsibility to uphold int'l law and to support Ukraine
it is remarkable how precisely calibrated OBBB is to absolutely ruin the kind of exurbs that go Trump+30. Democrats could *never* get away with immisserating and flat out hastening the death of the Republican base like that.
maria_from_ga@mariafromga.bsky.social · 5h agoBc they haven’t gone into effect yet it’s been underrated how devastating the Medicaid cuts from Trump OBBBA will be. Over 40% of Louisianans is on Medicaid, same w/ NM. 1/3 of Alaska & KY. Arizona, Iowa, and Nevada will have the most cuts. I hope in 2028 in all states, Dems can make the GOP pay
ex machina is a movie about a delusional pervert who raises and is implied to be repeatedly raping two women that team up to kill him. the delusional pervert believes he is solving a grand philosophical puzzle
balrog bongcloud@balrogbongcloud.silmarillionaire.moe · 22h agoI don't know how easy it is to keep AI models that can write zero days contained, but I expect it's a lot *easier* if everyone involved isn't a part of a California New Religious Movement who considers "the AI escapes" to be advertisement for their company and their NRM simultaneously
The pivot from "Israel is our most important ally, the only democracy in the Middle East, the bedrock of Jewish identity, and it should be illegal to criticize it in any way" to "Why do Americans have any opinions about Israel??? What does that have to do with us??" is remarkable to watch.
Abdul El Sayed is the only candidate for Senate I have ever heard in my life explicitly say repeatedly, including three days ago on CNN, that he would cut aid to Egypt
Tom Nichols@radiofreetom.bsky.social · 21h agoHow about our culpability supplying weapons to Egypt?
There's a specific kind of NeverTrumper who is convinced that Trump is a break with Bush presidencies rather than their natural, vulgar conclusion, & you can identify them by refusal to update any priors outside of an election year, like claiming concern for Gazans is just college kids not dem base
"doesn't understand the appeal of patina" feels like neat summation of American aesthetics
"Their argument would outlast the disease because it was so much more about continuing to have that argument than it was about anything else."

As of two years ago, he was a member of my (former) pool in CT, which if I had to guess is largely liberal and progressive and has more than a few Yale folks. Both the U and the community are stable (i.e., not “collasing”), and he seemed happy to be a part of it. 🤷🏽♀️
Marc Elias@marcelias.bsky.social · 21h agoRoss Douthat lives in...Connecticut. To be fair, I haven't been there recently, but did I miss its "civic and educational collapse?"
My Indian FIL voted for Trump in 2016 (business man Trump) and by the middle of 2017 had already regretted his vote. Voted Biden in 2020. Tonight he literally was like "tell me about socialism" at the dinner table and, anyway, I think the midterms are gonna go poorly for the GOP
unfortunately there is a very long history of ethnonationalists using archaeology and claims of *heritage* to pursue their goals of domination

Forbes@forbes.com · yesterdayWBNA eligibility rules don't use any external measures to say what defines a "woman."
imagine a future where *we* appropriate the vicious symbolism of ICE in a merciless crack-down billionaires and the MAGA class: fancy production value videos of bashing down their fancy doors, slapping bags over their spray-tanned heads, black helicopters, shattered ugly gold homewares, etc etc
right yeah. the thing is that he is a guy saying "you can conclusively rebut my political theory by blowing my brains out, but you would be a hypocrite to do so" which is sort of like a video game boss revealing its flashing red weak point.
𝓐𝓾𝓫𝓻𝓮𝔂@aub.bsky.social · 24h agoa personal beef with Schmitt is him saying that liberals want to "defer everything into an endless debate" that never culminates in violent conflict, while writing in the wake of both the german revolution of 1848 & the u.s. civil war, in both of which cases Liberals Had Simply Had Enough
