Southern Poverty Law Center tries to avoid angering MAGA but still gets targeted The SPLC has long had a mixed record, and in recent years it has largely abandoned its anti-far right watchdog role. But this hasn’t protected it from being targeted by the Trump administration.

Fun fact: in an early version of my Philosophy of Antifascism, I tried to see if I could incorporate Weil, but it was too much. I’m looking forward to this.

It's been a long time since I've read Badiou in depth, but I'm very tempted to review his political memoir, because it must be strewn with dialectical loose ends.

The Criminalization of Antifa In the wake of the shooting of Charlie Kirk, and in response to ongoing protests against snatch and grab raids by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officers, the Trump administrat…

I wrote this summary of the criminalization of antifa. Labelling antifa as a terrorist group has major implications for repression of left-wing activism but doesn't seem to have much public support outside of the right-wing echo chamber.

B.C. proposes to pause sections of DRIPA | Globalnews.ca 'This act created an action plan that allowed us to prioritize work when developed in partnership with First Nations and it has been working,' Premier David Eby said.

This is a dangerous road to go down.
All this does is encourage extractive industry, settler land developers, & venture capitalists to make more noise and throw more tantrums in order to slow or halt Reconcilation in BC.

The sad part is, this probably won’t win more support for the NDP long term.

Federal Judge Approves Trump Effort to Obtain List of Jews From Penn

There is no way this ends well. This is the result of the vertical alliance strategy of partnering with the far-right in government. www.nytimes.com/2026/03/31/u...

When I was a young lad, I set out to write a paper on Earl Warren. Discovering that he was governor during Japanese internment was a moment in the development of my political consciousness. It took a while to really get it, but the kernel was there.

It’s truly amazing how a few years of the Warren court enabled such a tremendous faith in the Supreme Court that is entirely unwarranted.

You’re never going to combat the cruelty and the racism by uplifting the apparent ‘deserving’ (small business owners with green cards) and degrading the ‘undeserving’ (undocumented migrant workers)

I’m working on an essay that responds to recent editorials by Jason Stanley, and it has managed to spiral into a very long paper that hopefully will also make sense to readers.

Even supposedly labor-friendly provincial governments have spectacularly failed their post-secondary education systems.

These cuts are foolishly short sighted. Post-secondary across Canada needs more funding—and without conditions about “market needs” (looking at Ontario)—not less.
