They’re picking jurors for Luigi this week Repost so everyone remembers this: Jury Nullification is when Jurors vote to acquit, not just based on the law. But on wether the application of that law Truly serves justice.

❤️ Wouldn't surprise me one bit if Italians are the ones finally doing it

Just a reminder to check for your name in this list of books that OpenAI trained from. If your name is there, they probably owe you several thousand dollars. OpenAI cried that if everyone eligible author files, the company will go bankrupt, so I'm alerting every author I have ever spoken to.

Ziff Davis and IGN routinely decide that work done by our laid off colleagues is not important. But inevitably, that crucial work falls onto those who remain. Not this time. Not anymore.

The protests against W Bush were some of the largest in history and we got free speech zones. A lot of us pushed hard against the war and we knew it was bullshit but the establishment liberals entirely moved in lockstep to push the PATRIOT Act and approve the war.

Crankin hog or hoggly crankin it?

I don't know who needs to hear this, but if you're using AI imagery, you're not "resisting", you're not in any sort of "resistance". You're capitulating, you're yielding. You're actively helping what you claim to oppose by using it.

if your favourite liberal politician has the exact same platform as a republican re: trans rights, the rights of homeless individuals, etc, what makes you think their other views differ from a republican's exactly

2025 Political Rising Stars To Keep An Eye On

It’s every parent’s nightmare, isn’t it? you check your child’s bulletproof backpack and find a picture book about gay penguins

Democrats held a trifecta four years ago. We could have had court reform. We all said "please give us court reform." Pelosi & Schumer killed it.

They will call you a communist anyway! We must work on educating people on what that means and removing their ability to use it as a slur

Read or listen to State and Revolution, please.

I should also let you know that if you read papers in other languages, you will find that school closures are still happening due to COVID, flu and many other diseases. Only wild exceptionalism is driving our need to ignore what kids are going through due to illness…

Israel has been slaughtering at least 100 Gazan Palestinians a day for 600 days, while a weeks worth of bombardment from Iran has killed about 25 Israelis. Fuck the media's faux outrage and demands for sympathy for poor little Israel. Our compassion stays where it belongs; the genocide victims.

From my FB memories This is still relevant in 2025 Research has shown that each COVID reinfection increases your risk of developing #LongCOVID (long-term / permanent disability) LongCOVID symptoms can appear wks or mths after the initial infection (which is why many ppl aren’t aware they have it)

10 reasons not to rank Andrew Cuomo *at all*

The violence against ICE must increase. #FuckICE.

In authoritarian ussr Workers were allowed to take home extra supplies from the factory or where they worked cause it was considered their decision and make doohickeys. In free capitalist society you have to pour coffee grounds on bread so homeless people don’t eat it

Gilead has announced that lenacapavir, the game-changing HIV prevention drug just approved by the FDA will cost $28,218 USD per person per year. Researchers say a generic version could be made for just $25 per person a year. Capitalism kills.

If we had a dictatorship of the proletariat I could be at brunch right now

The frauds are running off the boat Because the gravy train running out of gas.

It’s a war crime to target journalists and any other civilians.

Millions upon millions of Americans demonstrating on the streets today. The national Democratic Party will seize on the energy by calling for increased police funding and more military aid to Israel.

assassins dress like cops bc that’s who’s allowed to murder people in broad daylight

Being trained by IDF in 69 cop cities across the country with additional funding provided by Biden. Biden increased ICE and police funding to record levels and added 42k detention center beds just before he left office

just please remember, whatever the news says about LA after this, that this is *always* how it goes. Everything is extremely calm until the police actively escalate for no reason. It was true during all the BLM protests and it’s true now.

wracking my brains to think of someone who would have had access to a police uniform, a police-issue plate carrier, and a police car

We have lost all contact with our UNRWA colleagues in Gaza, communications have been cut off. This morning, for the first time in months, we did not receive their morning messages to say, "good morning" and "we are fine/alive". We anxiously await to hear from our colleagues.

A lot of liberals on this website are going to tell you to be "nice" to the National KKKlansmen today because "they don't want to be there". In other words, "they're just following orders". Fuck that shit. Anybody who stands with ICE is your ENEMY. Anyone who points a gun at you is your ENEMY.

Remember: Never speak to pigs Do not answer any questions they ask. Do not talk about what you did today. Don't even give them the time of day. Keep your mouth shut

Your reminder that virtually all democrats in office are on board with further militarizing the police, border patrol, and ICE

Remember this iconic photo from Ferguson? This is Edward Crawford, throwing back a tear gas canister to protect some nearby kids. Like many identified Ferguson protesters and organizers, he was "found dead" a couple years later and neither the cops nor the media will ever investigate.

fear not, cis men, when you hear the click of the toilet seat being set down for i am not going to take a dump; i am merely a trans man who needs to piss #transgender #transgenda #transmasc #dontbeafraid

Of course, we can suspect trump is in the epstein files, and so are a bunch of democrats. Lots of men don't want them opened. Get over blue v. red fantasies of redemption. It's systemic capitalist patriarchal colonizer rot.

when i was monitoring comms during BLM, i watched a sweep where a woman wept and prostrated herself in front if the cops because they were throwing out the only photos she had of her kids

how many freedom buckos does the US have and how many do Cuba etc have?

Johnathan Joss died a hero. He was murdered for being gay, he went out protecting his trans husband from being executed. They burned down their home and killed their pets and then they murdered Joss while trying to murder his husband. The New York times can barely muster "fatally shot." I hate this.

I hope people get violently angry about what happened to Johnathon Joss. On the first day of Pride he was shot and killed by homophobes who burned down his house and killed his pets. They were openly bigoted towards him and the police didn't do anything to protect him even after facing violence.

Israeli military drones told Palestinians to go to a specific area to collect aid, and when they got there the military drones opened fire on them. Hind Khoudary reporting.

It’s not alleged. Three separate legal investigations at the state and federal level found he did these things.

"The hallways...were absolutely lined with ICE agents. And immigrants were scared to leave, even though their cases were still open. What happened was that ICE agents then stormed into the courtroom, kicked out the attorneys, and detained everyone in the courtroom over the judge's objections."

Adriana Smith is currently being used as an incubator to keep a fetus alive since the law says she can't die peacefully. For some reason we're all okay with the state literally performing a medical experiment on a Black woman's body since it's fucking legal to do so.

the democrats could easily out-message the republicans on trans rights, but they do not want to. they know what works and what doesn't and they will keep doing what doesn't work on purpose
