Writer, psychologist & educator here to learn & share info on politics, psych, education, history &, especially, structural power. Antifascist, anti-oligarchy, atheist. I boost what I find interesting, regardless of whether I agree with it. Resisting fascism includes countering disinformation with facts. I prefer evidence, not evidence-free opinion.
