Lindsay Beyerstein@beyerstein.bsky.social · 3d agoNone of these people are tricksters, they are only liars. "We have been living in an age of tricksters. Musk, President Trump, Tucker Carlson, Andrew Tate, Nick Fuentes — the grammar of the modern right is tricksy."
Even from across the pond, as we deal with the systematic dismantling of everything that made US higher education the envy of the world, it is so upsetting to see the destruction of UK academia. Of all the stupid things it could copy from the US this is the most evidently self-destructive.
Glen O'Hara@gsoh31.bsky.social · 4d agoSo it's farewell to the History subject area at the University of Hertfordshire, not the first nor the last to go. One of the best departments in the country, just extinguished like a snap of the fingers. Think of the waste. (1/2)

This is what I mean when I talk about the Fantasy of the Optional Pandemic, where the virus was erased from the equation and mitigation measures were always portrayed as an avoidable choice. Headlines about what actually happened are never even acknowledged.
Lewis Goodall@lewisgoodall.com · 5d agoThere are working class and vulnerable kids who will never have the life they should have had because of school closures. Let’s address that too, shall we?
Love to see Crawford come through in the clutch; gives actual … hope?
As I was saying speed demon Alec Bohm is always doing things like stealing 3rd base uncontested.
AI here of course meaning Amnesty International and not the more common referent that may have popped into your head (Allen Iverson).

I will just say that the last time we had a figure like Elon Musk in our politics — Henry Ford — he was defanged through a combination of (a) rejection at the ballot box, and perhaps more importantly, (b) absolutely crushing consumer boycotts
Sunder Katwala (sundersays)@sundersays.bsky.social · last wk.Elon Musk's politics are indistinguishable from Paul Golding of Britain First [except Britain First is more coded on violence, while Musk has been more openly pro-violence as inevitable, necessary, legitimate since Aug 2025] The main pro-Hitler YouTuber "Zoomer Historian" is encouraged.
