💯. Our faculty, staff, and students prop up our failing college sport team (the big one, which serves as a de facto state religion) not the other way around.

Voter confusion plagues Texas primary in key county
Republicans’ decision to shake up polling locations led to mass confusion in the Texas primary election.
Hundreds of voters showed up at the wrong polling place after the Dallas County GOP forced both parties to abandon countywide vote centers in the March primary.

Religious fascism, whether Christian, Islamic, Jewish, Buddhist (yes, the Buddhists have them, too), always sound the same.
The Ayatollahs say they are defending Islam against "the Great Satan."
The Trumpists here say that they are trying to bring about Armageddon.
Both are death cults.

Historian here destabilizing the Middle East and then walking off while people kill each other in brutal ways. There is a precedent here: Iraq, Syria, Libya, Afghanistan. Then complain about the people who are refugeed and come to your country.

Trump’s Iran War Could Be an Even Bigger Catastrophe Than Iraq
Remarkably, Trump seems on the verge of outdoing George W. Bush in reckless, stupid militarism.
As the US and Israel attack Iran, read @jeetheer.bsky.social's piece from this week on why Trump's war of choice could be even more catastrophic than the Iraq War. www.thenation.com/article/poli...
