There is a tremendous opportunity for a brand new generation of media outlets to rise up right now because many news outlets that spent decades painstakingly building their credibility are seeing it torched by bootlickers with incredible speed.

A gross historical fact about white slavery panics (that's all those narratives around trafficking going back 100 years that blame Black & Brown men for the trafficking of white women) is that anytime you dig into actual trafficking cases there's rich white men in the mix as purveyors and customers
A central motif throughout the drug panics has been the specter of predatory drug dealers forcing innocent young white girls into sexual slavery. Swap out “scary young Black guy” with “old rich white man” and suddenly there’s no urgency.

Saying, "I immigrated here the right way, so you should have done it that way, too," weaponizes timelines. It's no different from boasting, "I bought my house when I was 20, so you should have been able to, too." Don't be ignorant. Have consideration for those in very different circumstances.

With tiktok *officially* becoming a Nazi propaganda organ, now's a good time to remind you that you can use several browser extensions to simply disappear any tiktok content.

Democratic leaders should now be saying: when we retake power we are kicking Andreesen, Ellison, and UAE out of control of TikTok.
The US TikTok sale has been signed. The company will be controlled by a joint venture including Oracle, Silver Lake, Andreessen Horowitz, Abu Dhabi-based MGX. Adding a UAE company really makes it clear that this was never about national security concerns.

That's great, Brandon, except for the fact that we all saw video of CPD escorting the fed convoy up Lakeshore Drive and up Sheridan, and we all saw how CPD acted as a rolling blockade against people who were documenting what the feds were doing.

meanwhile, the US attorney general also wants to categorize trans equality activists as belonging to “designated terrorist organizations”.
