Simply amazing that the Supreme Court declared an end to legal race discrimination in the affirmative action case two years ago and now allows overt racism in both immigration arrests and redistricting.
Using race to help minorities? Bad. Using it to discriminate against them? Very, very good.

There’s more that unites us than what divides us. And I got to believe that all of us (MAGA included) feel that the sexual predation and trafficking of children is wrong and should be prosecuted even if we find out that the worst culprit is the US President! Release the files!

Donald Trump claims to be "Pro-Life." Indeed, he was the first sitting president to attend the annual March for Life.
But this didn't stop him from conspiring with Elon Musk to kill 600,000 (so far) people, 2/3 of them children. You see, when Elon says we need more children he means *white* ones.

I wrote about how "Grokipedia" is a new front on the war against reality itself. It's an attempt by the oligarchic class to seize the means of knowledge production itself and create a weaponized unreality.

None of this should be surprising, considering the terribly flawed data that these tools are based upon. Garbage in, garbage out.
