The problem is not only Dave Portnoy. It is the culture that turns men accused of treating women badly into lovable public characters, while women are expected to carry the consequences quietly. Misogyny survives because it is constantly repackaged.

English

Dave Portnoy should not be allowed within five feet of any woman and still be treated like some harmless internet personality. The way powerful men get rebranded as entertainment after women speak about harm tells you how unseriously society takes misogyny.

@mehdirhasan If your first reaction to a baby being born is to ask how to deny that child belonging, the issue is not immigration policy anymore but failure of humanity.

Matt Walsh should be deported. He thinks the US Constitution is ‘retarded.’ He hates America. He should be deported.

The idea that a pregnant woman from Guatemala can sprint across the US border, have the baby 30 minutes after arriving here, and the baby is magically a citizen of the US, is one of the most retarded and indefensible notions ever conceived

Socialism is here to stay because the old promises have collapsed. People were told that hard work would bring stability, yet millions are priced out of homes, medicine and education. The demand for fairness is inevitable.

I do not see why income above $1 million should be treated as untouchable. Nobody reaches that level without workers, public infrastructure, legal systems and society holding the ground beneath them. An 80% top marginal tax is not punishment rather a reminder that extreme income has social obligations.

English

Saad Kassis-Mohamed@sdkassis·4h

An 80% tax on income above $1 million sounds radical only because we have normalized a society where ordinary people struggle for rent, medicine and education while extreme incomes are treated as sacred. The real question is why we ever allowed so much to concentrate at the top.

At a certain point, income stops being about reward and starts becoming power. Taxing income above $1 million at 80% is not about hating success. It is about refusing to let extreme wealth buy a louder voice than everyone else in politics, housing, healthcare and public life.

It is insane that trans people are treated as a bigger threat than guns, predators, or violent criminals. That is a manufactured panic against people who are simply trying to live their lives.

The way some people speak about Haitian migrants reveals how quickly racism hides behind the language of “concern.” These are not threats or abstractions. They are families, workers and human beings carrying histories of hardship that deserve compassion, not contempt.

The racism aimed at Haitian migrants in the U.S. is not really about immigration. It is about whose suffering is allowed to be seen as human. People fleeing instability and hardship are being turned into symbols of disorder, when they are simply trying to survive with dignity.

Haitian migrants are not threats, burdens or political talking points. They are human beings seeking safety, work and dignity. Those who forget this have already failed the basic test of humanity.

To speak about Haitian migrants with contempt is to ignore everything Haiti has endured. Migration is not a crime. It is often the last act of survival left to people abandoned by history, politics and the international community.

The Cockroach Janta Party movement feels strangely familiar: anti-corruption language, moral purity, outsider branding, and a promise to cleanse politics from above. It reminds me too much of the Anna protests. India has seen this script before, and people should ask who is really directing it.

The point of asylum is protection, not punishment. If someone is recognized as a refugee, the state has accepted that they needed safety. Turning that safety into a debt of £10,000 sends one message: you may survive here, but you will be made to pay for needing refuge.

Asylum seekers who are granted refugee status will be expected to pay a total of around £10,000 to recoup some of the costs of taxpayer-funded housing and support.

@ukhomeoffice Refugee protection is not a loan scheme. People granted refugee status have usually fled war, persecution, torture or collapse. To welcome them with a £10,000 debt is not responsibility but cruelty.

We should not accept a future where survival from heat means everyone hiding indoors with machines running all day. AC has a role, but dependence on it is a warning that our buildings, streets and cities are failing the climate test.

Saad Kassis-Mohamed@sdkassis·12h

We should ask why we are becoming more dependent on air conditioning every year. Heat is rising, but so is bad design: glass buildings, concrete streets, fewer trees and homes that trap warmth. Less AC dependence begins with better planning.

English

Saad Kassis-Mohamed@sdkassis·13h

The goal should not be to shame people for using AC in dangerous heat. The goal should be to build homes and cities where AC is needed less. Shade, trees, ventilation, insulation and better design are not luxuries but climate adaptation.

Citizen Vigilante belongs to a very old tradition: making the outsider carry the blame for a society’s collapse. Muslims and migrants become symbols of danger, while the violence of the majority is recast as protection. The result is a revenge fantasy with intellectual pretensions.

English

Saad Kassis-Mohamed@sdkassis·19h

The intellectual fraud of Citizen Vigilante is that it mistakes prejudice for realism. It takes the anxieties of a society in decline and redirects them toward muslims and migrants, as if private violence can solve what politics, inequality and institutional failure created. It is ideological cowardice.
