Reclaim populism

lundi 14 septembre 2020 à 02:00

*We need to reclaim populism from the right. It has a long, proud leftwing history.*

Climate Emergency Overdrive

*Climate Emergency Overdrive: Our Age of Compound Disasters.*

And this is just the beginning of it. To imagine life in 20 years, imagine that the worst we have seen happens in normal years, and the worst years are far, far worse disasters.

Most Democrats are not advocating the sort of measures that could stop the problem from getting even worse than that.

CDC's weekly report

lundi 14 septembre 2020 à 02:00

The wrecker's stooges have been editing their own spin into the CDC's weekly report on the status of public health and diseases.

Suing to make USPS reverse policy changes

lundi 14 septembre 2020 à 02:00

14 states have sued to make the USPS reverse DeJoy's mail-delaying policy changes.

*Colorado … filed a federal lawsuit against DeJoy for sending out mailers containing information that could mislead and disenfranchise voters.*

Republicans have spread disinformation about voting for many years, but in the past they usually were limited to doing so in private capacity.

Sentencing in Massachusetts is subject to systemic racism

samedi 12 septembre 2020 à 02:00

The Chief Justice of Massachusetts ordered a study of patterns of sentencing, and it found clear evidence of racial bias. Since the study controlled for other pertinent variables, there is no doubt about the conclusion: sentencing in Massachusetts is subject to systemic racism.

That the study was ordered by the state's highest judge gives me hope it will lead to considered action to reduce the injustice.

The article uses bigoted language ("white" and "Black"), and ordinarily I decline to publicize such articles. But the substance of this article is so important that I decided to link to it anyway. Please join me in pushing against intentional bigotry in journalism. If you read stallman.org, I trust you already support the campaign to eradicate racism against blacks.
