Without Fox "News" and other hate-media, we wouldn't be in this position. They are directly to blame for Trump, and thus also for the Far-Right Extremist majority on the Supreme Court. They are also directly to blame for the increase in hate and violence over the past decade, and the spread of misinformation and disease. It's time to work togather to put an end to this cave of snakes. It isn't "cancel culture", it's Self Defense.

When it comes to higher education, the US Supreme Court rules that race doesn't exist, but your student debt sure as hell does!

If you're shocked by anything SCOTUS just did, please realize that you have been rejecting reality. Time to pull yourself together and get real.

If you're not a very wealthy (10%) white cis man, you should be very worried about your future. Your only way out is though solidarity. You won't be okay on your own, no matter how hard you want to believe it. You should trust those telling you this because we've been right all along.

Justice Sotoymayor stating it clearly: At every junction of civil rights, there have been those who sought to use religion to justify their own desire to discriminate.

Previous courts stood up to these attacks, and enshrined protections. This court cowed to cruelty.

Important journalism business!

I'm writing a parody of a detransition-regret story, featuring people who regret their Harry Potter tattoos.

If you regret your Harry Potter tattoo and you'd enjoy being part of a very lighthearted, low-effort news story, reply or get in touch. #trans #journalism

Not only did Clarence Thomas benefit from "racial quotas" by getting into Yale, he got his spot on SCOTUS, not because he was the best judge America had to offer, but because George H. W. Bush wanted to replace its first black justice, Thurgood Marshall, with another black man.

It’s time to end legacy admissions. Each year thousands of students are admitted to colleges around the nation only because their parents went there.

Legacy admissions are back-door discriminatory policies that overwhelmingly advantage wealthy, white students over everyone else.

White supremacist nepo babies quoting Martin Luther King, Jr. to justify themselves is one of my least favorite things right now.

Christian Nationalist is just White Supremacy in drag, which is odd as there were *no* white people in the Bible.
