Genocidal liberalism will never defeat genocidal fascism.

America is only coherent as an empire built on pillaging the ever shifting periphery, internal and external, which has slowly reduced the breadth of viable ideological positions to various visions of individualism. Trump is just an extremely expressive cultivar of the staple crop

the leftist position is that people’s positions, even if horrific, have roots in their material reality. the liberal position as best i can tell is that 20-30% of the country has an irredeemably evil soul. i guess im going with the one you could actually do something about.

So proud of Sam! 🥳

IMO, there are a lot of accounts on here that performatively worship tradition but know very little about tradition. The comments are less about traditions and more about how they hate certain things. Many also don't practice what they preach.

@maiakotro This is wonderful! I feel like a theory baby saying this but it really meshes well with abolitionism’s push to imagine new and better ways of doing things that might not even be thinkable yet

A university with a $10 billion endowment and tuition nearing $70k can afford to treat its workers with respect and maintain appropriate staffing levels. Our statement on recent UChicago staff layoffs: docs.google.com/document/d/164…

*penality. Oops The citation is Apology 27.5-6
