"The only choice is — either #bourgeois or #socialist ideology. There is no middle course. . . Hence, to belittle the socialist #ideology in any way, to turn aside from it in the slightest degree means to strengthen bourgeois ideology." - Lenin

If anyone has some sorta "#gender #ideology", it's those pushing for social norms such as #conformity to "only two genders, and this is your #role".
Just keep that in mind. 
The point of our #LGBTQIA+* movement is to show that not everybody wants to conform to every norm as enforced under oppressive governments.
In a liberal #democracy, we get the chance to do that.
We're fighting for the rights and needs of the #individual.

Even as the world is collapsing under the weight of the endless contradictions of their own insipid #ideology & said ideology withers & dies before their very eyes they remain convinced that the #deathcult they indoctrinated into is destined to save us all while in reality it's killing us.

#Arendt saw #totalitarianism as the #fusion of #state and #capital, managing #life and #death. #Lenin thought he fought #imperialism, but built a #state #capitalism just as #authoritarian. Two sides of the same #coin?

@sz_duras In #LTI, The Language of the Third Reich, Victor #Klemperer shows how everyday language, official #discourse, and small habits of #thought insidiously transform the perception of #reality. #Fascism, according to him, does not impose itself solely through #violence or #terror, but through the slow permeation of minds, the trivialization of #ideology in #language, and the internalization of new norms, until the #exception becomes the #rule.

#LeMonde's #leader today: "When #racism escalates to #farRight #terrorism"
"Behind #MarineLePen's respectable façade, the spread of the #RassemblementNational's #ideology, which has gained traction across much of the political spectrum, has fostered hostility toward #foreigners and incited tragic acts such as the murder of #HichemMiraoui."
"By viewing the tragedy solely through a #religious lens [one favors] the perspective preferred by all extremists."

A quotation from Kurt Vonnegut
Fascism was a fairly popular political philosophy which made sacred whatever nation and race the philosopher happened to belong to.
Kurt Vonnegut, Jr. (1922-2007) American novelist, journalist
Breakfast of Champions, ch. 17 (1973)

A quotation from George Orwell
The early Bolsheviks may have been angels or demons, according as one chooses to regard them, but at any rate they were not sensible men. They were not introducing a Wellsian Utopia but a Rule of the Saints, which, like the English Rule of the Saints, was a military despotism enlivened by witchcraft trials.
George Orwell (1903-1950) English writer [pseud. of Eric Arthur Blair]
Essay (1941-08), “Wells, Hitler, and the World State,” Horizon

The #university's lawyers argued #DHS's action was part of an "unprecedented & retaliatory attack on #AcademicFreedom at #Harvard," which is pursuing a separate lawsuit challenging the admin's decision to terminate nearly $3B in federal #research #funding.
Harvard argues the #Trump admin is retaliating against it for refusing to accede to its demands to control the school's #governance, #curriculum & the #ideology of its #faculty & #students.
All ideologies end up killing people. If you separate love from non-violence you turn non-violence into an ideology, a gimmick. Structures that are not inhabited by justice and love have no liberating or reconciling force, and are never sources of life.

The university had argued that the #Trump admin's revocation was a "blatant violation of the #FirstAmendment" & punished the school for rejecting "the government's demands to control #Harvard's #governance, #curriculum, & the '#ideology' of its #faculty & #students."
"The AP Stylebook is considered “the foremost arbiter of grammar and word choice” for serious news and opinion writers, and it has sold more than 2.5 million copies since it was first published in 1953. It’s a basic resource in college journalism and editing courses, too, where students can be docked points on their assignments for failing to follow its guidelines. Simply put, it’s the industry standard—and that fact gives the people who write and edit the Stylebook a lot of power to shape both news coverage and the political narratives around it.
The Associated Press, of course, denies that it’s a political institution. Like many professional organizations, it claims that its decisions are “factual and nonpartisan” and that its Stylebook “doesn’t align with any particular agenda.” But we should always be wary of people and groups who loudly proclaim themselves neutral—because they rarely are. Instead, they usually have unspoken biases and ideologies that shape their work, whether the people involved realize it or not. The Associated Press is no different. When we dig into the latest edition of the Stylebook, we can find all kinds of material that expresses a political viewpoint—or suppresses one. From the environment, to immigration, to policing, to Palestine, the AP Stylebook serves to reinforce the status quo and prevent writers from telling the truth about today’s most important issues."

www.currentaffairs.orgHow the AP Stylebook Warps Reality to Serve PowerThe “Bible of journalism” claims to be a neutral arbiter of style. But its rules are political, and their tepid liberalism only helps to maintain the status quo.

At #Harvard, a conflict had been building for weeks, as the #Trump admin’s Joint Task Force to Combat *Antisemitism* criticized the university for anti-Israel bias. On April 11, the task force sent a letter demanding that Harvard comply with a list of demands that ranged from hiring an outside monitor to police the #ideology of #professors & #students to barring #InternationalStudents “hostile to American values.”

by Anna Peterson, a professor of religion at the University of #Florida.
“In the 3yrs since Ron #DeSantis set out to rid Florida’s #universities of #woke #ideology, my campus changed significantly. #Professors suddenly worried about what they could say & teach. Some started avoiding terms like '#racism.' One student recently told me that when someone used '#intersectional' in class, the instructor told her not to use that word.
历史表明，议会制政府并不总是法西斯主义的屏障，这并不奇怪。恰恰相反，在很多情况下它更像是一条红毯……
用过时的范式来理解敌人曾经让两次世界大战之间的反法西斯主义者付出了高昂的代价。在某个时候，随着我们离二十世纪越来越远，极右翼的演变甚至可能意味着完全超越“法西斯主义”的框架。

iyouport on Notion反法西斯的五个历史教训 | Notion本文简要分析了许多反法西斯人士从历史中汲取的、或者被认为应该汲取的五条主要教训。每一个教训都从对特定现象的事实描述开始，然后进入反法西斯对相关历史事实的解读。与所有历史现象一样，这些事实可以有多种解释。本文并不声称是这段历史的“全部”教训，但它们揭示了反法西斯运动的一些历史基础。
所谓的不稳定阶级是最原子化的阶级 ……"不稳定阶级内部自相残杀。其中一部分人可能会指责另一部分人的脆弱和不值得的生活方式（例如，临时工反感下层服务阶级的思想和生活方式）。底层阶级内部的矛盾使人们相互对立，使他们难以意识到社会和经济结构本身才是造成他们苦难的原因。他们中的许多人将被民粹主义政客和新法西斯主义呼吁所吸引，我们已经看到这一过程在欧洲、美国和其他地方展开”

- 自由派左翼为什么会在反法西斯斗争中失败？
- 为什么很多人分不清楚“极左/极右”？
- 法治主义政党意识形态和代议制选举政治如何阻碍了反法西斯行动？
- 改良派习惯的数人头在法西斯这里不管用，法西斯主义的崛起并不是因为忽然有了大批的法西斯分子从天而降，相反，他们只有很少的人。那么他们是如何造成如此大威胁的？
