I keep coming back to this exchange because it says so much. What I'm realizing is this was the type of response Ida Bae Wells received for the #1619Project. A lot of critics simply deemed it extreme so as not to truly grapple with its content. It's one way to silence people.

The muted response in the United States to a Jewish woman becoming the president of Mexicoāa Jewish woman who is a leftist and supports Palestinian liberationāit tells you everything you need to know about the cynical weaponization of antisemitism to silence and repress the left.

Sometimes The Nation gives me space to get some non-sports related emotions off my chest. Today itās about a campaign knowingly reading 2024 all wrongā¦and at peace with that. thenation.com/article/politiā¦



He was fired because he went on a podcastāwhile active duty & using his rank & titleāto accuse fellow airmen of being marxists. The DOJ tends to frown upon a commander accusing his own enlisted of being marxists. He wasnāt fired ābecause DEIā. He was fired for being an asshole.



No speeches. Done with twitter. Elon Musk and his flunky Linda Yaccarino are welcome to their tired, fascist disinfo dump. Find me @edgeofsports on all other platforms. My columns are The Nation and edgeofsports.com. Will keep DMs open for a bit if folk want to stay connectedš
