Yesterday, those who teach Intro to Sociology at Florida colleges (as opposed to universities) received a ready-made curriculum from the state and were ordered to teach it. Yes, you read that correctly. The *state* is enforcing a curriculum on college profs, complete w/ the following restrictions:

Absolute madness.

I'm skimming through mentions of Trump in the Trump-Epstein Files, and there's one thing that I'm thinking over and over: All we had to do was believe the women. There are dozens of stories in here that make me ill. Do you really believe these are all lies?

Musk's fortune keeps rising, mainly thanks to Tesla. We've all heard and seen that this man is a total fascist. Let's bring Tesla down. Let's boycott Musk.

Neil Coyle, MP for Bermondsey & Old Southwark, didn't mess about in a letter to Farage explaining Parliamentary procedure...

Ban X and live with the consequences, whatever they are. Nothing can justify such a vile platform owned by such a fascist - not even sanctions from a fascist USA.

Wes Streeting is definitely going to enter the Labour leadership challenge. We have to do absolutely everything to prevent him from winning. It would be a complete disaster for the UK. Streeting is just a younger and more explicitly Blairite version of Starmer.

Please consider emailing your local NHS providers to encourage them to say no to Palantir.

The NHS is under pressure to adopt Palantir software. Palantir’s founder openly despises the NHS. You can push back – use our tool to see if your local trust is using the software, then send an email to say no to Palantir https://goodlaw.social/658abc

We all have to boycott Tesla. This is one of the few instruments at our disposal to weaken this fascist's influence.

Petition to stop the decimation of The New School ( New York). There has never been a more urgent time for such an institution to exist. Yet it is being threatened by cuts that will effectively end The New School as we know it.

The New School was founded by Columbia University professors who wanted a university run by the faculty with minimal administration. For over 100 years it has been a unique institution with progressive values and incredible students and faculty from Ai Weiwei to Hannah Arendt. We are devastated.

There is no better evidence of Trump's weakness and cowardice than his decision to end a war by taking the side of the aggressor.

I wrote a book a few years back about the "crisis of marriage" in the Middle East, which left me completely unsurprised when talk of a "male loneliness epidemic" hit. As is often the case, one great place to glimpse the future is in the postcolonies...

I sincerely doubt today's budget will save Starmer and Reeves. It might buy them some time but removing the cap on child benefits won't be enough to hide that this was effectively a budget for the rich and one in which the middle classes once again bear the brunt of taxation.

He will either go next year or lead Labour into oblivion. Either way, he's cooked. The scale of the damages done to Labour and the country is too vast to be able to recover; his lack of vision and charisma won't help. share.google/tMjsUV1jy4NA...

The Home Secretary says her reforms will unite a divided Britain. She knows they won't. They are a tragedy for Britain. This Labour government must go.

The Labour Party is on full auto-destruction mode. Can someone please tell them that they're mainly losing votes to parties other than Reform and that behaving like Farage will only create more Farage voters.

I've been quite critical of the BBC for the way it tends to depict leftwing ideas as necessarily radical and dangerous. But I have continued to pay the licence fee as no journalism can ever be fully impartial and the BBC does some great stuff. Defend the BBC, fight fascism.

I'm gonna leave this here, go to bed, and dream of a better future. Cheers.
