Conservatives think the state should protect them from the traumatizing experience of encountering people unlike them. For some reason this never came up in the heyday of “snowflake,” “trigger warning” or “safe space” discourse bsky.app/profile/kiss...

Tucker Carlson doesn’t deserve anyone’s praise for trying to position himself as a leader of the post-Trump American right.

How 2 fringe groups and a friendly judge helped pull off Sheriff Chad Bianco’s ballot seizure Emails obtained by CalMatters trace the development of a years-long case that ultimately led to the unprecedented seizure of 650,000 ballots.

Anat Rubin and I co-wrote a story for @calmatters.org about the people behind Sheriff Chad Bianco's "election investigation" -- sovereign citizens, Christian nationalists, and "constitutional sheriffs."

NSDAP-Mitgliederkartei: Parteilose Mörder Es ist wichtig, dass die NSDAP-Kartei jetzt digital zugänglich ist. Das Problem ist aber: Viele Täter waren gar nicht Mitglied der Nazi-Partei.

Die Wohnung von Pfarrer Lukas Pellio, Cottbus wurde offenbar von Neonazis angegriffen. Lukas Pellio ist eine laute Stimme seiner Kirche für die christliche Botschaft, für Menschenrechte, für Demokratie, gegen Rechtsextremismus. Er verdient die Solidarität aller Demokraten.

it is so concerning to me that people won’t mask for wildfire smoke now. in 2021 our regional health district even told CHWs that they have never distributed N95s from their stockpiles for fire emergencies. back in 2017 they absolutely did distribute them!

The Columbine massacre was on this date in 1999. Instead of energizing our country to get gun violence under control, it kicked off a new normal. One of the best explanations ever of journalism's destructive impact on mass shootings came from Roger Ebert in his review of Gus Van Sant’s “Elephant.”

The Onion news is very funny etc but I think it's worth spending a little time looking at the reality of what's happened: the families have not seen their settlement, and Lenny and his former wife Veronique have not even had their long-awaited day in court. This has been brutal and it's not over.

Infowars’ endless afterlife The Onion may finally boot Alex Jones from his studio, but years of damage have already been done.

NEW: How exactly has Alex Jones avoided paying the Sandy Hook families a single dime of what he owes? I wrote about it here, and spoke to Chris Mattei, an attorney for some of the families, and Lenny Pozner, the father of the youngest child who died at Sandy Hook: www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

A clip from The New York Times reads: "But only the entities that officially paid the tariffs are eligible to recover that money. That means that the fuller universe of people affected by Mr. Trump’s policies — including millions of Americans who paid higher prices for the products they bought — are not able to apply for direct relief.

The extent to which consumers realize any gain hinges on whether businesses share the proceeds, something that few have publicly committed to do. Some have started to band together in class-action lawsuits in the hopes of receiving a payout."

The average American family paid $1,700 in tariffs last year, according to the bipartisan Congressional Joint Economic Committee. Few will ever see any of that money back. The refunds will go to companies, if doled out at all. What a joke.

Es ist alarmierend, was ZARA gerade schrieb:

Das Bundeskanzleramt hat vollständig & mitten im laufenden Jahr die Förderung der Beratungsstelle #GegenHassimNetz gestrichen - das ist österreichweit die wichtigste Anlaufstelle für Betroffene digitaler Gewalt

Es ist wichtig, dass die Förderung bleibt!

Antiziganismus auf dem Wohnungsmarkt: In „Schrottimmobilien“ gedrängt Sin­ti*z­ze und Rom*­nja werden auf dem Wohnungsmarkt oft diskriminiert und ausgebeutet. Nicht nur die Vermieter, auch die Nachbarn machen teilweise mit.

„Ich vermiete nicht an Roma.“

Kein Einzelfall, sondern strukturelle Realität auf dem Wohnungsmarkt.

Die @taz.de berichtet – mehr dazu im Artikel und in unserem Bericht:

While everyone is correctly calling this a mass shooting, it's also a family annihilator case. Most of the violence in our society comes back to intimate partner violence. If we care about peace in any way, we have to care about violence in the home.
