Virulent antisemite tells Jeanine Pirro that the 2nd Amendment is needed “to take care of these vermin” who “rigged” elections https://www.mediamatters.org/fox-news/virulent-antisemite-tells-jeanine-pirro-2nd-amendment-needed-take-care-these-vermin-who

Earth to corporations, executives can't be bigots in their private life and then have that view point not influence the decisions they make at work, which makes you legally liable for employing known bigots.

If you know some people who are bigots, who use their religion to tell them who it is okay to hate, who are pro-discrimination, don't put those people in charge of any other human being, ever!

New, from me: a University of Chicago student was accused of cyber bullying an instructor.
Elon Musk replied to a thread the student posted about his activities, generating millions of views, including 550K views where he again targets the instructor.

#Introduction I guess?

Any #classicalMusicians out here on the fediverse? Would love to connect! Classical Twitter still seems mostly on Twitter.

I'm a Montréal-based amateur cellist & #composer. I also play flute, voice, and dabbling in guitar, recorder, melodica, and others. Lots of #Baroque and #RomanticMusic, trying to discover more #NewMusic.

I'm always looking for more gender-marginalised, #queer and #BIPOC representation in classical music!

Lili Boulanger is <3

If only…

While the US Speaker of the House is claiming that the President's economic leadership is a disaster of epic proportions, in the real world, the payroll processing firm ADP said today that private sector jobs jumped by 497,000 in June, far higher than the Dow Jones consensus estimate predicted. Annual pay rose at a rate of 6.4%. Most of the jobs came from companies with fewer than 50 employees.

@timnitGebru They refuse to understand that unless and until we name the bigotry, we can't effectively critically examine its effects on and expressions in technology; and until we critically examine that, we can't deconstruct it; and until we deconstruct it, we can't replace it with something better.

And many of them refuse to understand all that, because they like what we got, just fine.

@epicdemiologist @StillIRise1963 oddly enough they constantly project when it comes to things like indoctrination... *cough* see white churches *cough*

Morning! Mike Pence is being plagued by GOP voter devotion to the Big Lie. But he only has himself to blame.

Pence spent his entire career promoting disinfo and training ordinary Republicans to use it as a weapon. He's reaping what he sowed.

The only reason people fear inflation is because the Republican propaganda machine is telling them to. Republicans are telling you how bad the economy is when the reality is much different. Republicans have no policies, only propaganda.

This is some twisted thinking. George Will argues that same-sex couples wanting access to businesses open to the public reflects a “bullying impulse.”

“The gay rights movement’s original live-and-let-live spirit has become curdled by a bullying impulse that reflects the truculence of many moralists nowadays.”

So it’s bullying to apply public accommodation laws to the #LGBTQ community?

John Thompson looks at a New Yorker piece that misses some critical insights in its examination of post-pandemic schooling. I was stunned by his misstatement of an essential fact and belief in corporate education reform. https://networkforpubliceducation.org/blog-content/john-thompson-for-schools-to-come-back-from-pandemic-facing-reality-matters/ #privatization

Special Counsel Jack Smith's spending in the first half of the fiscal year: $5.4 million

So the Heathers voted out one of the Heathers from the Heather Coven in a secret Heathers vote and didn’t tell the Heather?

WE CAN ONLY HOPE 🤞
