"Evaluations are also vulnerable to just about every bias imaginable ... students score male professors higher than female ones, rate attractive teachers more highly, and reward instructors who bring in cookies."

For a brief time during the pandemic, the boost in gov't spending—on stimulus checks as well as improved social benefits—helped keep families out of poverty.

After decades of widening income inequality, it looked like things were moving in the right direction. Not anymore. trib.al/5HLCDAS

I am sickened by the relentless demonisation of refugees.

No refugee underfunded a school.

No refugee closed a hospital.

No refugee took away support from the sick and disabled.

We need solutions not scapegoats. Stop blaming refugees and tax the rich instead!

i find this image so fascinating. it is both a literal example of authoritarianism but also a second-hand reproduction of the aesthetics of other authoritarian states. it's like a simulacra of authoritarianism whose purpose is to attempt to make the simulacra real.

This is a real photograph of Washington, DC this week, where the United States president has ordered military occupation in peacetime, and ordered the display of colossal portraits of himself.

"How bad slavery was" is worse. Much worse. Much worse than you think, much worse than you're taught, much worse than museums depict. Worse.

Settler colonialism and slavery are the twin sins on which this country is built

If your history museums don't make grappling with them a core part of their programming, it's not history. It's propaganda.
