I wrote a short thread on being a racial minority within math academia. I didn’t propose any changes to the status quo or solutions. Just pointed out why I think race is an issue in the context of my experiences. Here are some of the EXTREMELY racist responses I got back. 👇🏾

People who broke into the Capitol Wednesday are now learning they are on No-Fly lists pending the full investigation. They are not happy about this. teapawt.net/ExpertMilkshake/status…

Timothy McVeigh imagined that he was leading some sort of rebellion against the "federal government"--what he did was slaughter many children. confronted with this, he tried to dismiss their deaths as "collateral damage." there is a clear connection between McVeigh & #MAGA.
Trumpists haven’t really absorbed the fact that their movement attacked the United States. It was a breach of the social contract; the sort of thing that gets serious NatSec types to think less in terms of political disagreement, however passionate, and more in terms of threats.

I think everyone could use a lighthearted/happy story right now so here goes: At the beginning of the pandemic I went through some painful personal stuff and would often go out at night for long walks because no one was around and I couldn’t sleep anyway. One night I was walking

OK, whew. I've now read all 130 pages of state AGs suit v Google. In three words, Google is royally screwed. Expect... Press headlines: Facebook and Google colluded! Deeper dives: Google turned open web into a walled garden of tying, exclusionary tactics, and privacy fixing.

Its has become very clear to me why the 1918 pandemic was followed by the roaring 20s & why people were dressing up to go just about anywhere

Apparently someone I unfollowed a long time ago for excessive techtosterone said something insensitive and I'm shocked, just shocked

I don’t know who needs to hear this, but untreated COVID has a mortality rate over 10%. This 1% number people are citing is with state-of-the-art medical care, which you won’t get because hospitals are at capacity. Enjoy your weekend.

If you don't quite understand what horror the Trump administration inflicted today on transgender and non-binary people seeking medical care and why we're scared, let me tell you a quick story. [TW: transphobia, trans death] (thread)

Any gig-worker app that cannot make the business model work while paying $15/hour (after expenses!), basic benefits, vacation time, and family leave should not exist. Running a modern-day serf economy behind a slick UI is disgraceful.

Between a Harvard med student telling me that the strike is "just for humanities students" and having a computer science prof tell me that the social implications of technology is "not technical" and therefore "outside the purview of this lab," I'm...just...tired.

When our government refers to doctors as "radical political activists" and flu vaccines as "drugs," it becomes clear how far we've slipped from the realm of reality.
Of course Border Patrol isn't going to let a random group of radical political activists show up and start injecting people with drugs. washingtonexaminer.com/news/…
