    I'm Jewish and I think about antisemitism all the time. I can't tell you how fucking weird it is that Homeland Security posting literal neo-Nazi propaganda generates less discussion about the threat to Jews than a mayoral candidate who believes Palestinians are human beings.

    DHS is recruiting using a not-so-subtle reference to a 1978 book from white nationalist William Gayley Simpson, Which Way Western Man?

    Simpson's book was released under an imprint associated with the National Alliance, founded by Turner Diaries author William Luther Pierce.

    i finally transcribed mcbride's latest podcast and she is nothing if not slobberingly dedicated to blaming trans genocide on trans shitposters

    00;23;19;22 - 00;23;48;04 Mcbride And that's one of my gripes with Rahm's framing, is he perpetually accepts this notion that the Democratic Party is more interested in bathrooms than classrooms, and that's just not true. And even if Democrats aren't prioritizing trans issues or reproductive freedom issues on the floor every single day, or in all of our rhetoric, if we communicate to voters that if they don't agree with us 100% on those issues, that they aren't welcomed into our coalition... 00;23;48;05 - 00;23;59;27 Mcbride What we are communicating is that they are indeed our priority issues, because they become our threshold issues for whether we welcome you into our coalition or not. And I think that has fed the hand. 00;26;11;28 - 00;26;48;22 Mcbride One is working people need more support and help. Two, sort of, democracy and freedom are good. And three, we're not going to be assholes to voters. And while I don't think Democratic politicians necessarily universally were doing that, I don't think that the party apparatus - look, the reality in today's environment is that your party ecosystem is defined not just by politicians or the party, but also some of the loudest voices online that in voters minds reflect and represent that broader coalition in a world where many voters get their news online. 00;26;48;24 - 00;27;13;08 Mcbride When we have an environment where we've got some very loud people who are shaming and calling people who disagree with them, even in just rhetoric bigots, when we have those folks saying that to a wide swath of voters, including voters we could win, and we aren't explicitly stating something to the contrary, then a voter will then just paint us all with one broad brush.

    Meritocracy was always a myth but white people loved the idea of meritocracy among other white people. A lot of today’s whitelash is a reaction to realizing they’re beyond average without systemic racism to prop them up.

    I don't trust anyone who says they oppose Trump and support Israel because the apartheid state is the same kind of racist far right government that Trump is.

    So you're okay with fascism as long as it kills people you personally don't like? Is that it?

    Cis people being weird about trans people makes me think about king crabs. Bear with me for this one because it will make sense. You know king crabs, right? Giant crab, lives up north, has long legs, very expensive and tasty, featured on many a mukbang Did you know they are technically not crabs? 1/
