This is what the attacks on "critical race theory" were all about. Fash need to deny and attack scientific reality in order to maintain their racist fantasies.
Nobody should care about higher auto prices. Cars are literally destroying the planet, our health, our safety, and our communities. It's a completely unsustainable con based on extreme violence and privilege. Fuck cars.
Iran needs nukes because it's threatened by a terrorist cult that's been committing genocide for almost a century. That's the real "bloodlust". Literally murdering thousands of children.
The problem with being a "scientist" is that you spend your entire life quietly serving capitalism for personal gain. Then, when your privilege is ultimately threatened, you're only capable of meekly complaining about "eroding scientific standards". Any complaints about fascism, etc. are far outside the habitus.
It's not just "DT"... Genocide Joe was attacking students too. They're both just continuing decades of pro-genocide policies. Basically every politician is on the AIPAC payroll. Almost zero politicians are standing up for these students.
The national security chat debacle certainly merits attention. But the Trump administration is now blatantly disappearing students and others who are in the country legally.
So it's safe to elect a genocidal fash? Sounds like solid advice from the democrats. jfc.
