    Is she being ironic or really didn’t actually know? It’s hard to know if attention-economy people do gimmicky things for attention or really are that… uh… unaware of things?

      She really didn’t know. A few minutes after she made this comment she deleted it and posted another comment that made it look like she knew what was going on all along.

      Say you don’t understand the science without saying you don’t understand the science. You don’t have even a cursory, Wikipedia-level understanding. You have a 19th-century understanding, but science has since developed better understandings of sex and gender.

    Mamdami is forcing children to participate in a heinous Islamic ritual called Al-gebra. It’s like, demonic spells or something.

    One of my favourite conspiracies is that academic spaces are overwhelmingly left-leaning.

        It’s actually something that has been done pretty much by anyone in power in the past who was trying to consolidate their position without actually giving the people what they want.

        Hitler’s regime started by rounding up scientists and scholars purely to make sure nobody got any ideas that were detrimental to his power.

        It’s just sad that the voters for (extremist) right people don’t see that the endgame is just for a select group, not for all, and they see themselves as part of that select group whilst they’re actually part of the other.

        So MAGA folk think they’re part of that elite group that will benefit from right wing dismantling of social programs and not part of poor immigrants whilst they’re actually economically closer to those poor immigrants. Not just America, though, Germany is going in that direction as well right now and in Europe more and more of these voices are being heard.
