This. also, the backlash to Latinx is not about anti-elitism or "authenticity," its queerphobia. Latinos are less likely to support Dem. politicians who use Latinx, but also those who use Latine (which is "homegrown"), and this is a product of queerphobic beliefs net of anti-elitist beliefs.

Look: anyone who tries to sell you on change that is quick, lasting, and meaningful is a charlatan at worst and deluded at best. Meaningful, lasting change takes generations of work. We are part of an ongoing project.
To paraphrase an old saw: out of quick, lasting, and meaningful, pick two.

I can’t believe this needs saying, but “violent revolution” and “apathetic surrender to the status quo” are not the only two options in the world

Some people genuinely believe any (even mildly!) negative feelings you harbor toward them are the result of either:
(a) a misunderstanding that can be cleared up with more interaction (often word vomit); or
(b) you being abusive.

Why is it that every disappeared US citizen is not front page news? At the very least we should have a little box with a count of the number of citizens who have been taken away and are not locatable and a link to a story with photos & min-bios, just as we used to do with military casually figures.
In Portland, Oregon, masked ICE GOONS abducted and vanished US citizen Gonzalo Catalan last week. Tragically, his family remains unaware of his whereabouts and has not received any communication from him as of today.

I am much less inclined to discount the #Epstein was murdered theory than I used to be. At the very least this Miami Herald story reveals multiple hallmarks of a cover-up. (Headline undersells the content.)

Can anyone point me to examples of mainstream media noting the irony if not outright sabotage of Fortunate Son playing as troops pass in review? I can't find any. Nor anyone outside social media discussing how the soldiers' failure to march in lockstep is probably a subtle form of protest.
I did not edit this, this is the actual parade with the actual music being played.

Everything about this sucks. And I have a hard time begrudging people—especially comparatively young folks who are juuuuust beginning their journey, in a field where you’re regularly told that any misstep could torpedo your career forever—the instinct to protect themselves and staff.

Query1: Have human or AI editors doing article selection and/or editing?
Query2: When eds find hallucinations/other errors should they fix or just identify them?
