I'm staying offline as i can, today, but just a note that a LOT of people have been trying to warn about the intersection of white supremacy, eugenics, technology, & the present sociopolitical moment. Those same people also tried to present solutions, tactics to push back. Maybe go find & heed those
The guy who manufactured the outrage against Critical Race Theory and Elon Musk are now just simply firing non-whites and non-males in the federal government.

I push against despair in this by remembering that the remit of these E.O.s is the federal government (even as I also know exactly what that means for contractors; that's a lot of my family). But i say this to say, there is still a space for real meaningful pushback at state, local, & private levels
