There are people who will say this is just one woman who decided to take a flying leap into fascism. But remember Gillibrand's racist screed against Mamdani? Remember Schumer reusing to say he would for Mamdani. There are Dems who do not want to empower they want to be in power.

Important that we are seeing center-left attempted sabotage of a progressive candidate in the general election out in the open NOW. Will be make it easier to call out the Bloomberg set in August 2028 when they are undermining the Dem nominee, which they will likely do to anyone left of Shapiro.

Since 1992, the Democratic Party Establishment has been GOP-Lite, favoring corporate interests over the American People. Since 2015, the Democratic Party Establishment has opposed Progressives more than they oppose Republicans.

Not the least bit shocked about Haley Stevens. She’s continued proof the Dem Establishment will back any weirdo as long and they oppose the progressives. She’s been a weirdo from the beginning! We’re always saying the Dem establishment is more aligned with the right and this just confirms it AGAIN.

The United States could learn a lot from Serbia's student movement. Too bad both US political parties will fight to block such learning. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Headline should read: "Publishing Corporation's Confirmation Bias Produces Result that Supports It's Preferred Excuse to Lay-off Human Employees." AI is, and has never been anything but, a scam.

This makes me deeply uncomfortable. What's the point of research if we're just handing the reading, writing and eval over to machines? It also doesn't seem to align very well with the SN policy on AI in peer review "AI cannot replace reviewer judgement" www.springernature.com/gp/policies/...

Because "Trump Christianity" is trending, I'd like to remind everyone that there's no such thing as "Christian" Nationalism and that Trump is likely the United States' first atheist president.

The False Gospel of "Christian" Nationalism Bombing Iran has been the wet dream of American right-wingers for decades, but especially so for the evangelical death cult who lust for a war of Armageddon between Israel and Islam. imnotyourechochamber.substack.com/p/the-false-...

@jefftiedrich.bsky.social demonstrates how to avoid real issues while pretending you’re clever but just behaving like a typical MAGA clown. Yes, Jeff you are “entitled to your opinion” just like Trump and MAGA are, but you aren’t doing any good sinking to their level with Fake Left opposition.

It seems necessary to remind everyone that just two days ago, the Russians killed teacher Inna Maryukhina and her one-year-old daughter Angelina in the village of Nova Vodolaha, Kharkiv region. Is this what "humanism" now means to Witkoff?
