The most bizarre of all of Trump’s defenders on his racism: Stephen Miller. They officially sent Stephen Miller out to claim Donald Trump is not racist. Stephen Miller is the architect of ALL of Trump’s worst, most racist policies. This is like sending Dracula to convince somebody you haven’t turned into a vampire. Here is a whole thread reminding you all of the things that he’s done. I even found some things -I- didn’t know he’d done!

N.J. School Board Member: ‘My Life Would Be Complete’ If Rep. Rashida Tlaib Died

Daniel Leonard is refusing to resign despite backlash from community members and the Council on American-Islamic Relations.

:headphones: Podcast

The president’s authoritarian rhetoric, racist tweets, and tolerance for surging white supremacist violence make one question more urgent than ever: Is Donald Trump a fascist?

According to Prof. Jason Stanley, the author of How Fascism Works , the answer is an emphatic yes . In today’s special audio edition of The Long Version, the Yale philosophy professor and I talk about the surprisingly long history of fascism in America, how the president and his Republican allies are unleashing dangerous forces for power, and why institutions from the Democratic Party to the New York Times keep proving themselves so unable to deal with the crisis.

When Facebooks straddles the line on what could be considered ‘free speech’ vs ‘hate speech’, one can see how tied into white supremacy’s platform, and doing little to reject it. And how much will Congress do to regulate these social media companies?

Posts using the word “invasion” to demonize immigrants seem to violate Facebook’s hate speech content policy. So why isn’t Facebook taking them down?

  • Facebook’s current hate speech guidelines in its community standards extend “some protections for immigration status.” The company considers “race, ethnicity, national origin, religious affiliation,” among other things, “protected characteristics” against hate speech. On its policy page, Facebook breaks down these protections into multiple tiers that detail types of “attacks” which are prohibited.

First tier attacks, which are prohibited against a person or group of people on the basis of immigration status in addition to all other protected characteristics, include:

  • “Any violent speech or support in written or visual form”
  • “Dehumanizing speech” that references or compares a protected characteristic to, among other things, violent criminals or “criminals” overall
  • Designated dehumanizing comparisons in both written and visual form”

Second tier attacks, which are prohibited against all protected characteristics including religious affiliation and national origin, but not against immigration status, include:

  • “Expressions of contempt” such as self-admission to Islamophobia
  • “Expressions of hate”
  • “Expressions of dismissal”
  • Other “statements of inferiority”

Even though the company has policies that seem to prohibit most if not all “invasion” content, Facebook still allows it to exist and spread on its platform. In March, Facebook claimed it did not consider a post pushing white supremacist claims about a “Muslim Invasion” in the U.K. to be a violation of its community standards. A year after leaked documents revealed that Facebook allowed praise for white nationalism and separatism on its platform after the August 2017 “Unite the Right” rally in Charlottesville, VA, the company implemented a so-called white nationalist ban. But the auditors Facebook had hired to oversee its goals of “advancing civil rights on our platform” criticized the ban as “overly narrow.”

A power message about why this time it is entirely wrong to ignore the shooter in El Paso, because his racism, his manifesto, his hatred, and his horrific goals are key to understanding what Latinos are facing in this country now.

Adrian Carrasquillo:

“I read more than 160 DMs, emails and texts from people who told me they didn’t have a safe space to share these stories. They were from people in red states and blue states, the united states of hating immigrants and people who just look like they might be.”
