People would protect my son because he's trans but set him on fire because he's Jewish. Unless it's the other way around, which it is sometimes. It's exhausting trying not to call people Nazis when they're following the whole playbook, right down to the eugenics of ableism.

Trump is only a marginally successful con man, and he's going to be an even worse dictator. That's why the oligarchs want to get rid of him. As hard as it is to believe, he's insufficiently corrupt to please them. They have momentum right now and want to move even quicker.

Somehow a word from this story reminded me that any time someone says ‘orthogonal’ in software that is usually somehow a pretty clear sign that they are bad communicators and probably Nazis
