Yeah, but the Partition of British India caused > 1MM killed and 15MM displaced, and the 3 populations (Hindu, Sikh, Muslim) were nowhere near as enmeshed geographically as Blacks+BIPoC+multiracially inclined Whites vs White supremacists/isolationists are in the US.

It is really hard for most people, even on questions that are not core to their sense of self or are more intellectual. Even within the sciences, Physicists tend to be the ones most willing to admit we were wrong, because we have been demonstrably wrong so often and also because each time we have learned some deeper…

Why aren’t they anti-clothing? If 12 sq. inches causes them to lose their “freedom” and causes them so much bu## hurt, imagine the oppression from clothing! Then they could have a nice slogan “Swing free or die!”.

Agreed with the article on all points. Wintour is wrong on the point of power: a more formal, less familiar, look would convey Kamala Harris’ power and support a narrative of power. Wintour contradicts her use of “welcoming” earlier in her mealy-mouthed response. Why does Kamala Harris have to be “welcoming” as…

Agreed, idiot anti-vaxxers and anti-science existed before Trump came to the fore.

Why do we expect hapence to behave as if he were worth tuppence?

Yah, if the mandrill an*s licker Republicans (sorry mandrills and mandrill an*ses for the comparison) seriously thought it was Antifa, they would be doing everything they can to encourage law enfarcement or FBI or whatever to go all out against whoever was there at the Captiol within a given time window, get the…

And why would we want to dress in wieface trash and cultivate colonies of lice and fleas in our beards to attempt to pass authentically as the reactionaries? I don’t think I could behave as dumb as “podium guy” or “piano scarf lady” unless I had a “horizontal” lobotomy.

What is the equivalent of being court-martialed for civilian police for abandoning their posts, dereliction of duty, handing over their weapons ... not to mention aiding and abetting the enemy? Resignation with full tax-payer funded retirement?

It’s the barrel that has the rot. You can put a “good” apple in, it will still rot.

As others have pointed out, wounds don’t start healing until you cleanse them, cauterize them, kill the infected cells, sterilize the bacteria (now there is an idea that should be applied to the right wing white supremacist reactionaries) and then bandage them to keep out further infection. Even so, if gangrene has…

Absolutely agreed. There is a time for restorative justice, this isn’t it. The principle has to be preventive and “make and example of”.

My teen daughter’s Street medic team was anticipating violence from the trumpelstiltskins on Jan 6th, simply by monitoring various antisocial media.

In Oakland, supported by swat teams.

Your RAFWA shows in your us vs them language, you don’t seem to be bothered that the US Capitol was taken over for hours by magats.

“cops...lose jobs"? Hahaha!

It couldn’t possibly be Antifa, scientific studies show that it would take 3 months to grow the colony of maggots and lice commonly found in the beards of the wie supremacists, and it has only been two months since the elections.

Right, the North got the Union, the South got to keep slavery and to spread it to the Union, both Whites won.

Been there done that, not even with Republicans, just good ole racist white and brown centrist Democrats in an ostensibly racial equity-driven organization (hint: the org is FB money).

Case in point: Jovanka Beckles that Berkeley did not vote to win for CA Assembly district 15. However, it is true that in 2020 she has been elected to a public transportation board.
