"Texas’ Abortion Ban Resulted in More Infant & Newborn Deaths..."
"How does this multiracial element affect or complicate the government efforts to respond to domestic terrorism threats?
Because the government tends to look at ideology as the driver and has all these social media monitoring programs to examine what people are saying, white supremacist groups who don’t fit the profile that law enforcement might be looking for could slip through the cracks. But if the government simply focused on the violence and the threat of violence, they would be much more successful, because none of these ideologies that the government brands as precursors to terrorism are 100 percent pure in practice.
The government must understand criminality — particularly violent crime, and then attack the instrumentalities of violent crime, including the ease with which people can acquire extremely deadly weapons, which are the common denominator in these mass shootings. We have to establish a regulatory process that actually works.
And if we start gathering the data of all these white supremacist crimes around the country, then we can see the connections between them and how they may be related to an ongoing criminal conspiracy that’s continuing to perpetuate violence, even as certain individuals within the organization go to jail. There’s a law on the books — the National Defense Authorization Act of 2020 — that requires the FBI to document incidents of domestic terrorism, including white supremacist violence. But so far, the FBI has refused to do so.
White supremacy is foundational to our country, particularly our criminal justice system. Many of the laws that police used to enforce — from the Fugitive Slave Act to Jim Crow — were openly racist. So we have to recognize how law enforcement’s reluctance to properly respond to white supremacist violence because of its own affinity for white supremacy remains a problem."

"Why White Supremacist Groups Attract Latinos to Their Ranks"
"What is there to be gained by people of color, especially when they join movements that profess to regard them as inferior?"
"It’s better to think of it in terms of intent instead of skin color. The concept of white supremacy could be ideological — a belief that white people are somehow superior — or it could be simply an expression of what subgroup is powerful in the country, so the attraction to white dominance in this culture is an attraction to power. In the history of white supremacist groups in the United States, you often see people with Jewish backgrounds who are attracted to them, or African Americans. And part of that is that they want to be seen as associated with power, or by their association they believe they can be protected from the racist abuse these groups might otherwise dole out. Humans are complex. As an undercover agent, I came across a lot of violent people. So being attracted to a violent white supremacist group might be a way of just expressing their anger and exploring their interest in committing violence."

Toxic positivity really does kind of remind me of how some people became Nazis, actually. In the past!
It's nice to know that you're probably able to celebrate that you're less racist than Trump or the Texas woman who tried to drown a Palestinian child. That is something positive.
Life is also full of unpleasant things. Sometimes the most unpleasant things come from the people who never want to act like any unpleasant things exist at all because they're being selfish.

It will seem so unhealthy, how little some people cared about certain types of humans, just because they wanted to get the most attention or the most money, or to feel the most justification for going along with practices that will seem increasingly discriminatory and unhealthy for society. Not caring about certain kinds of human beings just to fit in with the unwell ones who repeated patterns of bigotry will seem, at the very least, distasteful.

Frankly, if you think you have to act like a closed-minded bigot in order to get enough money to raise children, I simply don't believe you.
One thing to consider is, you're not in a Nazi concentration camp. Sometimes you just choose to be closed-minded to fit in with other closed-minded people, and if you keep it up, somebody is going to get hurt, even if it's not you.
Someone is going to get born who doesn't fit in to your close-minded, selfish, uncaring and unaccepting way of doing things, and then it will be very hurtful that you cannot accept that person. Because you are simply too comfortable with the way things are to be open to caring about somebody who is too different from you.
And the worst thing is, I'm not sure if that's really who you are. It's just who you decided it was good enough to be.
Consider reevaluating your survival strategy sooner rather than later.
SOME people seem to have A LOT of addiction to that "sexist man like sexist women who act like sexist men are more important than they are" AND that "white people like brown people who act like white people are more important than they are" ENERGY.
Maybe some grandchildren will have to work harder to go along less with the sexist and racist people as a direct result of the decisions you're making today?
But all the racist and sexist people treat me so much better when I act this way! How can I possibly give it up???
You haven't worked hard enough at overcoming sexism and racism because you've gone along with a lot of it in exchange for a more comfortable place in a patriarchal white supremacist society just to get more money and more short-term rather than long-term gains.
Don't act like a shallow, petulant, uncaring person who participates in oppression just to maintain a delusion and to fit in better with some small-minded people for a little while.
Even if you have spent a great portion of this lifetime ignoring the people that you've been relying on for your lifestyle, it is unsustainable.
I don't really care how hard you think you've worked to deserve your house, your land, your extra money, your special privileges....
Racist, sexist, incredibly selfish people who still want to vote for Trump for their own short-term gains, which will actually harm their own descendants...what is the purpose of a lifetime on this planet?

"Dante Maximus, a black motorized horse with surprisingly lifelike movements, arrived at Coto in March.
While the horse simulator was originally developed as a conditioning tool for horseback riders, Dante has proven himself to be no one-trick pony. His rhythmic motions have found another use at the center: as a therapeutic exercise tool for the disabled.
When Tustin resident Jackie Kerr, 56, began riding the horse simulator seven weeks ago, she didn’t expect to see much improvement in her case of multiple sclerosis. Kerr, who uses a wheelchair, hasn’t been able to bend her right arm for years and experiences recurring pain in her hip area.
But after about 20 sessions on Dante Maximus, she’s able to move her arm again and accomplish a task most take for granted – washing her hair with two hands. The tightness she once felt in her hips has also vanished.
'The pain has been mitigated completely after doing this,' Kerr said."

The use of these products have not only been linked to uterine cancer deaths but also uterine fibroids, both conditions in which Black women are overrepresented. Accordingly, around 42 per 10,000 women are hospitalised annually because of fibroids in the US; for white women, this incidence rate is 18, shooting up to a staggering 68 per 10,000 for Black women. Myomectomy and hysterectomy rates for Black women are also higher compared to all women.

Even if those who were persuaded to value certain kinds of people above others due to the influences of Patriarchal White Supremacy didn't seem think so, in that certain era, there were also many who had the opportunity to see more of the value in a larger portion of humanity.
"Growing up in Southern Georgia in a big household as one of seven girls, Jenny Mitchell, 34, had always dreamed of raising a family of her own. This goal was shattered one fateful day after a visit to the hospital. 'I'd been going to a fertility specialist to try to have kids because it's something that I'd always wanted. While getting a vaginal ultrasound, my doctor noticed something unusual on my uterine lining. I got tested, and three days later, I got the call saying I had adenocarcinoma, which is uterine cancer,' she tells Refinery29. 'I had to undergo a full hysterectomy to treat it, which was devastating — devastating because it literally took away that dream of mine to have kids and experience motherhood.'"

Kinda like the babies who come from the parents with the most money and the best genetics, huh?
Just kidding, right?
Mesmerizing.

I am so grateful to know that some of the children and grandchildren are going to be so much better to the "different" kinds of girls and women than what got role modeled for them. I am immensely grateful to know that. I can see it's going to happen. It's already starting to happen!
I am grateful for the people I met who were better, and who taught me to expect better.
Because some of you have acted like I'm a worthless piece of s*** compared to a man with money, or compared to a woman who has supposedly superior genetics according to Patriarchal White Supremacy, and it's been a gross, disgusting, horrible experience, only highlighted by the fact that I met some people who are much better than that who showed me, Oh, I'm not all crazy. There are some people who are better than that and I felt much better when I was around those people.

Actually, I can tell that a lot of the children and grandchildren are at the very least on track to be a lot less shallow than what got role-modeled for them by some people who came from previous generations.
I guess it remains to be seen whether or not the children and grandchildren will discriminate as much against "the different kinds of girls and women" as the paycheck-archy taught some of their parents and grandparents to do.
"I'm so glad that that grandma definitely wouldn't have discriminated against someone like me."
When you act like light-skinned people who give birth to light-skinned children are more important than all the other kinds of people on the planet, someone is sick of your s***.
Your children should be much nicer to different kinds of people than what you have chosen to role model for them.
You should be much nicer to your own descendants then patriarchal white supremacy trained you to be.
I think you should try to find more of those kinds of parents to hang out with. Try harder to find more people to hang out with who are much more observant than the Patriarchal White Supremacy wanted you to be.
I think the grandchildren deserve nicer grandparents, actually.
They are not going to have your genetics.
Oh a bigoted mom who thinks she's entitled to not give a s*** about anybody because now she's giving birth to a child who will be more favored by the patriarchy than other kinds of unfavored children that you're also raising your own children to discriminate against just as much as you do? Just because that's what you were taught to do?

There should be rehab clinics for those kinds of problems and those kinds of addictions.
There should be 12-step programs for those kinds of problems and for those kinds of addictions.
It's just an idea!
Ask the Jesus that you claim to love to help you with your racism and your sexism and your bigotry, so that you can see people who actually exist, and in some cases, they might be living right down the street from you sometimes!
All the categories of children and grandchildren that the sexist, racist grandparents didn't give a s*** about, Even though they were living in the supposedly more enlightened 2020s.
They couldn't even train children to repeat their shallow self-absorbed bigotries if an underclass of mostly brown people weren't feeding them.
May the grandchildren act much less entitled to discount certain kinds of girls and women or treat them so badly...
"How to be much less uncaring towards certain kinds of girls and women than the ones who were the most pampered by the patriarchy and by white supremacy were."
Some people really should find the parents who are sensitive enough to act like they care about a much wider variety of humane beings who are living on this planet, and try hang out with them more often.
They really do exist!

U know what, I know some got addicted to not caring about certain kinds of people, but I really don't think it's Jesus who wanted them to act that way!
But why would some people still be so uncaring?
Just to fit in with all their unwell friends?
Or to fit in with what got role-modeled for them by their families?
I'm afraid so.
"I just discriminate against X types of people because it's easy and that's what Jesus would want me to do."
A bunch of things that got taken for granted as "normal" are not going to look quite so "normal" to repeat in the future because knowledge makes impossible to keep on repeating the same old tired, insensitive, uncaring customs.

Perhaps some people could just change a little, and not ruin their lives, and not be mean to themselves, and not bully others and just change a little, for the better, in a healthy way, and maybe it could even be a happy sort of thing.

I think I might almost be thinking of a dad bringing his kids into a hotel bar one time to look at the sparkling, pretty disco ball that was in their lounge, and when the lady told him "Children aren't allowed in here, sir," the dad said, smiling, "Oh, it's okay. I was just stopping by for a second, so they could look at the disco ball. I would never bring the children into this den of inequity."

"The first year in the Hausbesorger's apartment was a bad one. I couldn't get used to our new way of life, and I was terribly ashamed of being poor.
I had previously hated school, but now I was anxious to go each morning because it got me away from home. I spent most weekends at the Jensens' apartment. But my happiest escape from the situation at home was going to the Opera everyday.
Often, when I got there, I leaned hard against the heavy side door of the Opera House to close it as quickly as I could, to shut out the world outside, a world I no longer liked.
I didn't think that, except for Uncle Otto, anyone at the Opera knew that I had become as the Viennese call it 'a Hausbesorger's Daughter.' The term had all the unfair implications that a racial slur has in America."

I’m not sure how many Americans attracted to Trump feel this way. It’s consistent with the strength-versus-weakness framework Trump is deploying. Trump may be loathsome, they tell themselves, but at least he’s strong, and we need strength over weakness.
I was born 78 years ago today. At that time, the world had just experienced what can occur when a loathsome person who exudes “strength” takes over a major nation and threatens the world. A number of distant relatives died fighting Nazi’s or perished in Nazi concentration camps. I can’t help wonder if the young conservative I spoke with would feel differently were he 78."

"A few days ago I was talking with a young conservative who admitted that Trump was an 'odious thug,' in his words, but argued that America and the world had become such a mess that we need an odious thug as president.
'Think of Putin, Xi, Kim, Ali Khamenei, Netanyahu — they’re all odious thugs,' he said. 'We need our own odious thug to stand up to them.'
I said that direct confrontation could lead to more bloodshed, even nuclear war.
He continued: 'We need an odious thug to shake up Washington, stir up all the ossified bureaucracies now destroying America, do all the things no one has had the balls to do.' I winced. He charged: 'We need someone to take control!'
As soon as he uttered those last words, he and I both knew the conversation was over. He had spilled the beans. He was impatient with the messiness and slowness of democracy. He wanted a dictator.

"A group of women farmworkers from Homestead, a major agricultural area in South Florida, traveled to Tallahassee on Tuesday to say they want their kids to have opportunities to further their education rather than toil in the fields.
But legislation moving through the state House would roll back child labor restrictions to allow minors to work longer hours. This Thursday, the Florida House will vote on, and most likely approve of, HB 49, which would allow 16- and 17-year-olds to work more than eight hours per day and more than 30 hours a week during the school year.
Employers could give 16- and 17-year-olds fewer breaks under the House proposal.
'What’s best for our kids is that they study to be able to defend themselves in life, so that they don’t have to work in the fields under the sun all the time. We don’t want them to pass out from heat illness or suffer debilitating injuries; we want them to be healthy,' said Sandra Diaz, one of the workers with The Farmworker Association of Florida, Inc.
She continued: 'We want our kids to be more successful than we are. Some of us are not professionals, but we want our kids to be.'”
