I'm tired of the saying that people get more conservative as they get older.
Reality check: people get more conservative as they get more wealthy. The people saying "people get more conservative as they get older" are white people living in a privileged bubble in which, in the generations since WW2, people like them typically amassed more wealth as they aged.

Epstein-Big-Tech-Trump eugenics are already operating
"Maybe climate change is a good way of dealing with overpopulation" ~Epstein-funded Joscha Bach
Big Tech has long discussed which of us are worth saving. The richer, the worthier.
These fascist ideas are now Trump *policy*.
Millions of people are already dying every year from govt inaction on climate:

Powerful Nelson Mandela Interview at Town Hall, USA that amazed the whole world (June 21st 1990) - YouTube
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WcQIEIRLU1Y
Recommended. Take the time to listen to what he has to say. Note that this interview happened the same year that Mandela was released from prison, and therefore before the end of apartheid.

“This would be absolute CHAOS.🚨Worse than tariffs. Just insane amounts of foreign capital leaving the US.🚨Older Americans with the most savings struggling to find docs they haven’t needed in decades.🚨Crazy nativists prioritize population purity over your financial well-being.”

Joy-Ann Reid looks at the long history of the right's red-pilling of men in the US and the economic forces funding this:
"What these men of right wing media were selling was consistent: resentment against racial minorities, particularly Black people; anger against poor people; venomous rage against liberated women; anger against secular Americans and liberal Democrats;" (continued in /2).

New World Order
"We have enemies. They are not in Palestine. They are not in Lebanon. They are not in Iran. They are here. Among us."
"They dictate our lives. They are traitors to our ideals. They are traitors to our country. They envision a world of slaves & masters."
"Gaza is only the start. There are no internal mechanisms for reform."
"We can obstruct or surrender. Those are the only choices left."

I'm watching a PBS documentary that describes in detail ~60 years in the late 1800s-early 1900s when those of Chinese origin were legally excluded from becoming American citizens...
omg the #racism & hatred were despicable.

If #racism was invented by kings to control servant workers (debt slaves) in the new world, doesn't that mean that white is a labor class and not a biological thing?
If white is a labor class, doesn't that mean that every other made up race name is also a labor class?
If we are all a labor class, then who is the boss?
Report: A photo taken of an Israeli settler verbally abusing a Palestinian woman is called "antisemitic" by an Israeli ambassador.
The magazine-cover photo was taken of the settler mimicking to the woman the sound of a shepherd calling his flock.
The group of settlers & masked soldiers was preventing Palestinians from harvesting their olives.

i co-wrote, with other feminist bloggers, a letter to the US Congress asking them to reject Samuel Alito for #SCOTUS.
the lawyers in the group had a long list of cases but there was one case that stood out. we all agreed it was THE red flag about his extremism:
HIS CRUELTY TOWARDS A BLACK TEENAGE GIRL in a decision that allowed prosecutors to treat her as an adult instead of a child.
that case felt like a foreshadow of this #MAGA coup & #civilWar
Malaysia is taking Israel to the ICJ after Israeli officials kidnapped, jailed & assaulted flotilla activists.
"The legal action follows alleged acts of brutality, including kidnapping & torture involving flotilla activists, particularly Malaysian participants."
Malaysia "will initiate proceedings as soon as lawyers complete the collection of information & supporting evidence".

"Every Black Republican now serving in the U.S. House of Representatives is leaving. Every single one. Wesley Hunt, Burgess Owens, John James and Byron Donalds — the four Black Republican faces most often used as evidence that the GOP was somehow diverse, inclusive and post-racial — are all walking away. That is an indictment. Republicans recruited Black candidates not to reform policy, but to provide political cover. Now the mask is slipping":

Racism By Omission 🧵 1/3
"Similarly, while omissions are often the result of inaction, the articles in this special issue show how the racism of omission is created purposefully and through neglect—by individuals, organizations, and structures of society, and that the sociological study of racism itself has also omitted conceptualizing liberation adequately.
