A Passive Counter-Revolution

What the right now confronts on cultural terrain is a long domesticated radicalism.

The Hedgehog Review

the absolute meltdown of the MAGA movement into a circular firing squad of christian nationalism, gay baiting, and conspiracy theories about "the joos" in the aftermath of the murder of #CharlieKirk is incredibly heartwarming.

Candace Owens, Tucker Carlson, and Nick Fuentes have done truly incredible work on behalf of humanity.

apparently more than a third of #republican voters in the US are now holocaust deniers¹? and 41% think 9/11 was an inside job.

these numbers came from the trump loving, christopher rufo paying, super right wing Manhattan Institute. this is not a liberal pollster.

¹ maybe "holocaust truthers" is a more apt description but... whatever

Nicholas Kent, the Education Department official who oversees U.S. universities, is going with a quieter but possibly more sweeping approach to remaking higher education than the Trump administration. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2025/11/03/world/politics/trump-college-czar-weapon/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #worldnews #politics #christopherrufo #universities #colleges #us #donaldtrump #republicans
Trump’s college czar has a ‘secret weapon’ to transform campuses

President Donald Trump has called the accreditation system a 'secret weapon” for forcing changes in academia, and Nicholas Kent is uniquely well-positioned to wield it.

‘Rufo’s brand of fugazi is brilliant because academics are incapable of seeing their own bullshit, let alone seeing through it.’

Chris Rufo Is Exploiting The Fact That Academic Plagiarism Norms Are Absurd

Let’s be honest, Christopher Rufo is the ratfucking king. While I don’t agree with him about anything, when it comes to dirty tricks, nobody does it half as good as him, he’s the best. Whenever Ruf…

Major corporations, including Mastercard, Meta, and Coca-Cola, are quietly sponsoring a Canadian conference headlined by Christopher Rufo, a far-right activist and crusader against diversity initiatives. Many of these same companies, however, champion diversity in their public communications.

Alex Henderson points to a recent report by Sophia Cai showing how Trump's supporters – Elon Musk is at the head of her list – are helping him push his grievances while he's tied up by his trial.

And that makes the New York Times' normalization and assistance of Musk all the more reprehensible.

Jamison Foser reports that the New York Times, "a right-wing newsletter," is using the same playbook it ran last year with Christopher Rufo and Elise Stefanik against Claudine Gay. They're now using it with Rufo and Elon Musk to go after NPR's new CEO Katherine Maher.

Right-wing voices such as the #HeritageFoundation and #ChristopherRufo (the guy who manufactured a controversy about #CriticalRaceTheory to undermine public schools) have started speaking out about “recreational sex” (ie non-procreative sex).

My first reaction upon hearing this was “let’s put this stance on billboards, it will surely help defeat MAGA in the coming election.”

Then I realized I was missing the big picture again. #USPol
