This isn’t even an AI post as much as it is another anecdote in how social relations in America have been put through a blender of extreme market extraction at the same time that govt/charitable support for 3rd spaces, extracurriculars, social clubs, etc have fallen to their lowest point in decades.

Also, apropos of nothing in particular, if anyone tries to tell you that the protests in LA are a distraction from the budget bill, kindly remind them that the bill will MASSIVELY expand ICE’s budget, so the two things are very much related.

New data finds Americans are more likely to support labor unions over Big Business than at any time in the past 60 years. We are witnessing a historic rebirth of worker power. If you want a better life for you and your children, join or support a union.

If you avoid a chronic condition because we install HEPA filters in workplaces and you mask in crowds, you’re healthier. And so is everyone who can access the providers you don’t need because there were appointments available. Those ripples of community care matter. And they need policy support

I think some ppl believe that if they get it right or perfect, they will be able to achieve a lasting solution. But history & sociology have helped me understand that freedom & justice are a constant struggle, so it’s imperative to do what you can when you can w whomever you can each day. 3/3

It feels so strange to be going on about regular business during all of this, my current work feels useless in the face of everything barreling at us. Nonetheless I passed my dissertation proposal defense yesterday ‘with distinction’ so toot toot, that’s the sound of my own horn. 🎉

Research from 2022 that every Democrat apologist should chew on: “We do not find any evidence that accommodative strategies reduce radical right support. If anything, our results suggest that they lead to more voters defecting to the radical right.“

They're only banned if you let them be banned. The proper response from any agency is "Fuck you. See you in court." All of this website scrubbing and exhibit purging is cowardly and disgraceful. As Timothy Snyder has observed, it's simply teaching power what it can do.
