Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.

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.
Honestly, I don't think Trump is smart enough to be annoyed by all the nuances of race as a societal construct. This is all Steven Miller, that Goebbels fan boy. Trump is just signing shit they put in front of him.
Trump is just signing shit they put in front of him.
I don't think so. Remember the adage, every accusation is a confession? Now consider his recent accusations that Biden used an auto-pen. Frankly, I don't think they're putting anything in front of him to sign anymore except for public events, if any. I think they are using an auto-pen to ~~sing~~ sign executive orders without even telling him about many or even most of them.
Yeah that's probably closer to the truth and he doesn't care; he'll ride or die whatever it is.
He's secretly a fan of Evil Improv.
I just do not understand how Steven Miller became.... well, Steven Miller. His mother grew up with Left Wing parents, but apparently Miller's parents have gone pretty Far Right after Trump took office the first time.
At least some members of the Miller family aren't vile monsters, as his own uncle wrote this about him.
“I have a huge family,” David Glosser said during an appearance on CNN on Tuesday. “I wouldn’t offer to speak for my entire family, but dozens of family members encouraged me to push forward with this.”
Glosser said he also didn’t expect to change Miller’s stance on immigration following the release of his fiery editorial on Monday.
“It appears he made his entire political and personal career on this single issue for reasons that I don’t really know,” he said.
“The reason I wrote it now is because the administration has had an increasingly hostile posture towards desperate people trying to get into the country,” Glosser said, adding that he had already been posting his opinions on the country’s immigration policies for the “past year or two.” {mosads} “But various members of the family, as well as myself, thought I could no longer remain … [a] quiet voice on the subject in light of the incarceration of all these children,” Glosser continued, calling the Trump administration’s controversial immigration policies implemented in the past several months an “inexcusable cruelty.”
Though Glosser said he hasn’t had much communication with Miller in the past 10 years he said writing the critical editorial of his nephew was difficult.
“I write this more in sadness than in anger,” adding that he has not been interested in “public notoriety.”
“But, as I say, I felt it was incumbent upon me to raise my voice to let people know that this is a country of immigrants. Our family were immigrants, in fact they we were refugees,” Glosser said. “If my ancestors had not immigrated to the United States when they did, if they waited a few more years until 1924, the door would’ve been shut.”
It's not that difficult. He doesn't come across as charismatic or interesting by himself at all. He's kind of a bland person that no one would miss at a party or a reunion or even at all.
At some point, he got a reaction from saying racist shit that made him feel better about himself. So he went all in. Better to be infamous than to be boring.
If he was younger, he would have paid for Andrew Tate's seminars and called him an alpha. Or even younger, he would went Columbine and shot up his school.
Just a boring, bland, uninteresting man that no one will miss.
Maybe their next ~~fuhrer~~ president should just be a trained monkey. It could sign stuff all the same but won't tweet about it.
The signature would look the same.
Kapo Stephen "PeeWee Himmler" Miller.
