Yes, You're Racist

@YesYoureRacist

If you have to start a sentence with 'I'm not racist, but...' then chances are you're pretty racist. Jewish leftist. Opinions my own. RT≠endorsement, obviously.

    Since today is I'll collect some of my Star Wars tweets and threads here, starting with my longread from last year about why the prequels are extremely relevant to the rise of Trumpism and the failure of liberal centrism:

    Revenge of the Sith is actually good in that it accurately depicts how society can be willingly led into fascism through conspiracy theories about "elites" and the use of ethnic scapegoating to explain economic oppression of the masses, and how liberalism is powerless to stop it

    House Democrats, who led an angry charge against the TRUMP administration’s treatment of migrant children, have taken a much quieter tack regarding concerns over conditions at some of the emergency border shelters set up by the BIDEN administration.

    The first part here is so crucial: the plurality of GOP voters want white nationalism. No matter who runs next in the GOP presidential primary, they will be incentivized to move in the direction of what the base wants. It's a demand driven problem.

    One under-appreciated point is that Republicans have manufactured an insoluble demand side problem. Their base inhabits an insulated media ecosystem that runs on existential panic. Can’t walk that balk when it careens off the democratic rails.

    I wish North Carolina's state capital wasn't a big city, because as it is we're constantly having to deal with some bigoted lawmaker from bumfuck nowhere writing an anti-gay bill because he happened to witness two men kissing while he was in Raleigh for the legislative session

    How much of Texas legislation is telling Austin it can't do stuff that Republicans dislike? If I said 80%, am I close?

    Can we get an update on this?

    In response to the economic impact of COVID-19, we need to provide immediate relief to those who are drowning in student debt.

    If there's one thing we should all have learned from the Obama presidency it's that incrementalism does not in fact work, and yet

    When injustice runs deep, progress takes time. But if we can turn words into action and action into meaningful reform, we will, in the words of James Baldwin, “cease fleeing from reality and begin to change it.”

    My only take on the idiots complaining that people who go to Pride parades might *~gasp~* witness some kink

    Immediately cede the position to Dave Filoni

    You wake up as the head of LucasFilm, what’s the first thing you do?

    Brb, having a panic attack because I thought I saw a sign that said "Stop ethnic cleansing" but it was really just a stop sign

    Like his real-life inspiration, "Terrible" Turpin never hesitated to throw down – especially when someone insulted his partner Maggie Sawyer, one of the first openly gay characters in DC comics

    One of my favorite Kirby creations was Inspector Dan Turpin, who was sort of an author surrogate and a major badass. Turpin's Superman Animated Series design was based on Kirby himself – he was eventually killed while single-handedly facing down Darkseid in a fitting tribute

    Instead of hiding under his desk or calling the police, Kirby just rolled up his sleeves and headed downstairs to the horror of his colleagues. The anonymous callers were gone by the time he arrived – but based on everything we know about Jack Kirby, those Nazi cowards got lucky.

    Kirby, who was Jewish, grew up on the Lower East Side and never backed down from a fight. One time he was working at Marvel and took a call from a voice who said "There are three of us down here in the lobby. We want to show him what real Nazis would do to his Captain America."

    Can't wait to see how they handle Wonka going to Loompaland and importing its indigenous inhabitants to work in his factory in exchange for literal beans – I'm sure that'll go over well

    Don’t let this consent manufacturing get you twisted, in none of these cities has anyone actually implemented meaningful reform, much less defunding, so any surge in violent crime is an indictment of the police as they currently exist and operate

    A year after the murder of George Floyd, Los Angeles and other American cities are facing a surge in violent crime, forcing cities whose leaders embraced the idea of police reform to reassess how far they are willing to go to reimagine public safety.

    Did you hear about how the CIA supported the Khmer Rouge and the State Department ran diplomatic cover for them

    Did you hear about Pol Pot's "Year Zero" campaign in school or the absolute brutality that proceeded in the Killing Fields and throughout Cambodia under his tyrannical rule? Probably not.
