Eisgruber

A pitiful university president who talks about free speech all the time but actually represses protests and strikes, and does nothing to protect international students and create transition funds for folks losing their research funding under Trump. He also gets easily flustered whenever you say anything against the institutional groupthink of the Princeton University administration.
Damn, that Eisgruber mf is still justifying union busting, Israeli apartheid, fossil fuels, private equity, incarceration, and anti-democratic practices?

bacterial futurism

An ecosocialist theory of society and politics suggesting that both interpersonal interactions and large-scale human dynamics can be better understood through insights drawn from microorganisms. Since bacteria form the fundamental building blocks of life on Earth, these single-celled organisms hold immense potential—especially when considered collectively, in vast numbers.
Pessimistic about the future? Bacterial futurism has an answer! We can only get out of this situation by organizing en masse toward a decentralized, ecosocialist future.
