“Renee Nicole Good was a U.S. citizen. She was white. She was a woman. She was a mother. In the American moral order, she is supposed to be untouchable. She occupied a categorically outside the kill zone of federal power.“
”People are not reacting because the state killed someone. They are reacting because it killed someone it wasn’t supposed to.”

What’s unsettling about calling the #ICE killing of #RenéeGood “another #GeorgeFloyd moment” is how quickly #Black pain gets repackaged into a generic template for “state violence,” especially when the victim is #White. George Floyd’s murder was a specifically anti‑Black terror event in a long history of #racist policing; treating it as a floating metaphor for any shocking killing in Minneapolis feels like Black erasure even when the intent is solidarity.

Your request to not want to see US politics, or any topic, is fair. Especially given your view that it is your responsibility to filter, not others' responsibility to not talk about it.
Many people are so opposed to LLM based systems, that they've given up on regular statistical based regression filters. 🤷🏿♂️
You should be able to list topics that you don't want to hear about, and your client should score posts, and hide things that you don't want to see. You can do this without transformers.
Alternatively, BlueSky has composable moderation. Some human can read posts and tag as "US politics." Then you can subscribe to that filter, to not see it. Low effort for posters, good result for readers.
Telling people to add hash tags to everything is silly. It only makes sense from the position of someone in the default category, because they don't really think that they'll have to adorn everything they write with:
#white #male #whiteman #man #cis #dude #bro #ablebodied #whitepeople #pinkskinned #majority #justaguy #guy #caucasian #presumeddefault #stuffjustworksforme #benefitofthedoubt #thoughtoffirst
They presume themselves to be the default, and hash tags are for everyone else that deviates from their view of the world with them at the center.

#Landback is also a #WomensRights issue.
As women across the U.S. give 150% to make the holidays special just as their mothers did and mothers before them.
#women keep this country together. That’s why I believe so strongly that #indigenous sovereignty is so intrinsically tied to the liberation of #white women.
I know both experiences deeply as many other mixed natives raised by white mothers know. #thanksgiving for a better future.✊🏽

Edward D. Greim, a partner at the Kansas City firm Graves Garrett Greim, who is representing the #white voters from #Louisiana who challenged the map, urges the justices to act in time to allow new maps in the #2026election. [of course he does]

“It is a separate question as to how we go about remedying that, & the extent to which we need to use #race as a remedy,” Justice #Jackson added. “That’s the question we’re here on today.”
Up next is attorney Edward Greim for Phillip Callais & other #white #Louisiana voters.
#SCOTUS #law #VotingRights #VRA #CivilRights #ActivistCourt #WhiteSupremacy
The other lawyers are the #Trump administration’s deputy solicitor general, Hashim Mooppan, #Louisiana Solicitor General Benjamin Aguiñaga & Edward Greim, the lawyer for the #white voters who sued over the map with 2 majority #Black districts.
Louisiana switched sides after the court ordered new arguments.

"We take the people that are going to do the best job. And so it's very simple. And that's the way our country was built. We were built on merit," #Trump who was born a #white #male #millionaire told the #military leaders.
"We're bringing back a focus on fitness, ability, character [🤣] & strength & that's because the purpose of American military is not to protect anyone's feelings. It's to protect our republic."
[character: #Hegseth & Trump who are criminals & rapists👍]
🤬🧵
In a sharp break with precedent, #Trump has aggressively contested sources of government #data that he thinks casts his policies in a negative light. Last month, after a weak #jobs report, he fired the commissioner of the Bureau of Labor #Statistics, claiming with no evidence that the data was “rigged.”

The #Agriculture Dept report, Household #FoodSecurity in the #UnitedStates, quantifies the share of households considered “#FoodInsecure” & “very low food secure,” a subset with a more severe designation of need that applied to 5.1% of households in 2023. It analyzes those categories by #state, #race & #ethnicity. Rates are much higher among #Black & #Latino households than among #white households.

@benroyce I understand the principle of the #ruleoflaw for all and not intimidating MPs in a vote, HOWEVER... if you live in a bicultural society where #Maori is an official language and technically you live on land that was seized from Maori people... the least you could expect is not just an acceptance but a full integration of Maori culture in the democratic process. There is NO REASON why a parliament should only reflect the culture of old #white men. #hakas4ever.
