The Tulsa Race Massacre of 1921, one of the worst acts of racial violence in U.S. history. But two years prior to the carnage in Tulsa, another violent wave of hate took hold in the country.

A boat caught fire with three people on board after they allegedly circled another boat and harassed its passengers for displaying LGBTQ pride flags. The boaters with the pride flags, who rescued the injured from the water, have described the incident as an act of karma. Twitter user @retro_ushi_, who identifies as trans and queer, told the story on social media and said: "These people harassed my family because we were flying gay pride flags in Moses Lake, Washington, by racing around us and shouting gay slurs. Then, their boat literally blew up! #KarmaIsReal" They added: "And just ONE more tidbit to really drive the karma in there. The driver literally s*** his pants and everyone saw when his shorts fell off in the water."

The MPA, acting on behalf of the Alliance for Creativity and Entertainment, has obtained DMCA subpoenas to unmask the operators of more than two dozen pirate sites.

The supply shortage everyone is talking about involves semiconductors, the essential hardware in electronic devices as small as a cellphone and as big as an airplane, and everything in between. The lack of computer chips caused several factories to suspend production; the auto industry lost 27,000 jobs in April alone due to this shortage. Beyond autos, hardware companies like Apple, tractor suppliers like Caterpillar, and even a small company that manufactures electronic dog-washing booths have been affected. And these production snarls have downstream effects; rental car companies that cut their fleets in the pandemic have found it hard to replenish with more vehicles, and freight rail services don’t have cars to move around and are losing business. It’s true, as Kevin Drum says, that this kind of scarcity was largely (though not entirely) due to stupidity among manufacturers, which reduced their orders for chips during COVID and then never ramped them back up until it was too late. But that in itself was indicative of a comforting fiction our economic overlords tell us about just-in-time production, the idea that we should remove all slack from the system of supply logistics and only bring raw materials to the production process, or goods to retail markets, at the very moment that they are needed. This invites catastrophe, of the kind we’re seeing now, as those same people realize to their horror that they can’t get everything just in time anymore.

What are companies desperate for diversity consultants actually buying?

Journalist pranked several trashperson conservatives and got them to retweet a picture of Lee Harvey Oswald on memorial day. The thing is- he had to lie to do it. He posed as a currently enlisted soldier and said that the picture was of his grandfather. The picture he used was- not really recognizable as Oswald unless you are some sort of Kennedy scholar. So he tricked a bunch of people, gave them more evidence that journalists are liars, but didn't really make them look bad. If the point was to remind people that "the troops" are just as likely to be awful people as the general population he could have done it better by just tweeting the image from his main feed.

In the 1980s, the Reagan administration used Central America as a testing ground to rehabilitate US imperial "hard power" after defeat in Vietnam. The results were predictable: death squads, massacres, and murderous repression of left-wing movements.
