My wife is still on Facebook. She posted this post and it got tagged as partly false. The reason was that rolled back order only prevented discrimination in federal jobs. But the post CLEARLY specifies federal!
Community fact checking is obviously just going to be bullying.

Felon Trump' Air Force is burying information about the Red Tails (Tuskegee Airmen of the 332nd Fight Group) and the WASPS (Women's Airforce Service Pilots).
What don't they want you to know?
Thinking of writing a cozy mystery. Thought I'd start with a title.
Options....
- Can I borrow a cup of MURDER?
- Does this MURDER make me look fat?
- Our MURDER flew onto your roof.
- The arc of the moral universe is long, but it bends toward MURDER!

Well said!
We need to take action because they are ruining OUR society right now!
My soapbox is getting a workout today, sorry y’all…But I’m seeing all these posts with something like “when he’s done with #trans folks and #immigrants, he’ll come for you next”.
And yes, that’s absolutely both terrifying and true. But also, it shouldn’t be what’s motivating you to take a stand NOW.
If he comes for ANYone, EVERYone should raise hell because it’s wrong, not because it might directly impact you down the line. Marginalized groups are not the shield you get to use to pressure test how bad things will be when it’s your turn in front of the firing squad.
Here's a book I wrote!
There was a time when you could reasonably rely on most people to be aware of the importance of science even if they didn't understand it now people are actively hostile to it and pretend to understand it. Anyway, this book is making fun of that last type so grab a copy and enjoy it

New instance, new #Introduction !
My name is Jürgen, and I translate old German folk tales into English - not just tales from the Brothers Grimm, but from the hundreds of other 19th century German folklorists out there.
To date, I have translated more than 800 tales. You can learn more about my project here (and you can get a free ebook version of my first book if you subscribe to my newsletter there):
