I’m sorry but melting down because you see a Mexican flag in LA is so funny

Content warning: blood, serious head injury. A woman was run down and trampled and clubbed by LAPD officers on horseback. She appears to be seriously injured and bleeding from the head as an officer drags her limp body along the pavement.

The woman who was run down with horses, clubbed with sabers, and trampled also apears to have been shot directly in the head from close range in the same incident. The officer blames bystanders for LAPD's actions. Warning: lots of blood

Just stacks of boxes of ammo behind these guys

Rubber bullets still carry enough power to injure or kill. They're supposed to be fired at the ground to bounce at their target.

Four LAPD officers on horseback surround a man laying on the ground, trample him, and beat him with their polycarbonate "saber" batons.

I wish them both the worst.

Jonathan Joss was Comanche and Apache and an openly gay actor. He was murdered while looking at the remains of his dogs at his own house that was burnt down. The killer yelled homophobic slurs before shooting him. This is the real world consequences of the hatred that the right commodifies

America cannot long remain free, nor first among nations, if it becomes the kind of place where universities are dismantled because they don't align politically with the current head of the government.

Just deranged. This was a *solved* problem.

Your School House Rock moment...🤔

@pfrazee.com any plans on forking this verification feature to also have verified news and approved news verifiers? Most sites lack a way to show which news sources/verifiers corroborate the facts presented in a post/article.

"The president is no longer bound by law, but he is protected by laws. The same laws that now permit him to, say, instruct Seal Team Six to assassinate the chief justice, also provide for him to complete his presidential term."

When people say 'politics is too divisive now,' what they really mean is 'I was more comfortable when certain groups suffered quietly.'

nobody is immune to propaganda, but it does help if you can develop a moral framework independent of a book you read when you were twelve

we believe we are special and we simply are not

Fabricating Authenticity. The content is extremely engaging and relevant. I loved the chapter about authentic Mexican food in PEI as well as the ones discussing authenticity in religions - or lack thereof. Fantastic scholarly work by all authors/professors involved. I look forward to reading again!

Very heartening to see foreign officials mocking him for being a fucking clown. Feels like the garlic to his vampire

I got laid off today, with the rest of 18F. 18F was an elite federal software shop. We made gov't websites work better, more efficiently for the American people. We saved taxpayers from getting screwed over by contractors. And were fired for it. We made this website to tell our story: 18f.org

“If you're not careful, the newspapers will have you hating the people who are being oppressed, and loving the people who are doing the oppressing.” A classic quote from Malcolm X, who was assassinated 60 years ago today.

"The Trump administration may feel that winning the election grants it the authority to alter science to its liking," Danielle Ofri writes. "But the scientific community needs to stand its ground."
