Uber is one of the most destructive companies in modern American history. It clogs roads with empty cars, pioneers new forms of labor abuses that it enacts into law with deceptive ballot measures, and makes a small group of people wealthy by promising returns that will never happen.

This is so messed up. Companies are using AI as plausible deniability to create a thin layer of "it wasn't us the computer did it" for any scam they want to pull.

At some point we have to actually start holding white voters accountable for their choices. These are grown-ass adults.

They have so wholly rendered undocumented workers as invisible and devoid of personhood that those folks read less as migrants than as rented livestock. And they don't expect the state to impede their ability to access that servant stock and its services.

And here when I say "servants" I mean the invisible workers who maintain their lifestyles. They don't expect to have their farm or their manicure or their morning coffee disrupted. They don't expect the landscaping or the hotel room to go untended.

I think it's more that they didn't expect people to deport THEIR servants

Nah. There was enough information. It was being screamed from the roof tops. Trump and co denied it was their plan. They took them at face value. You make stupid choices you get stupid consequences and I'm sorry but I have no sympathy for these fucks whilst my TRANS BRETHREN ARE DISAPPEARED BY ICE

It would be really really nice to believe that evil has real, material consequences somewhere

Reminder: it is not illegal to foil ICE attempts to arrest people. We have no legal obligation to support these fascist goons––in fact, we have have a basic ethical responsibility to oppose them. www.thenation.com/article/acti...

Joni Ernst fucked up, if we exploit the opportunity: "This is the sort of thing that breaks through to people who don't follow politics. Share the town hall video, share the cemetery video with people in your networks and ask them to call both of their Senators"

I’m convinced that part of why covid broke so many brains is that a bunch of middle & upper class white people were smacked in the face with the reality that covid doesn’t care about privilege and so they found *themselves* among the “collateral damage“ which they believed wasn’t supposed to happen

Every Democratic candidate in 2028 should have publicly available, step-by-step plans for dismantling DOGE, abolishing ICE, reversing ALL of the Trump executive orders, and punishing ALL Americans who participated in the Gaza genocide. None of them will.

A reminder that “America First” is a Ku Klux Klan slogan.

Sorry but if you can be "duped" into voting for this you shouldn't be allowed to make decisions for the rest of the country. Just no. You saw J6. You were here during covid. If you needed to be convinced to not vote for Trump in 2024 after his 2016-2020 stint then I don't know man

#OnThisDay in 1921, the Tulsa race massacre killed up to 300 & left 10,000 homeless. “They tried to kill all the Black folks they could see,” recalled George Monroe, who was 5 at the time. A 7,000-square-foot museum, Greenwood Rising, now honors that community. mississippitoday.org/2025/05/31/o...

This is how people talk when they aren’t a target of violence and discrimination. They always have much more empathy for hateful people than the targets of hate.

If you truly believe they’re reachable, that work is yours to do. But don’t ask the people harmed by their votes to do emotional labor for those who only care once the pain hits home. Some of us are done begging for humanity.

One thing I have learned from the past five years is that a majority of cishet white Americans who consider themselves empathetic and good people will take no meaningful steps to stop mass death as long as the people who are dying are "part of the plan," as the Joker might say.

"The real kind of black holes in this country are jails ... When you're in a jail, you are at the mercy of that facility and at the people who run it. You have no autonomy."

It’s crazy how all these “I didn’t vote for this” ppl heard him when he said he wanted to deport criminals, gang members, but none of them heard him say he wanted to deport 20 million people. Trump said it loud and clear, but a lot of media repeated one part of the message and glossed over others

Counterpoint: you actually did vote to deport moms. What part of “mass deportations now” did you not understand?

wild that we sent a huge number of guys to Iraq at the start of that war without rifle plates and now this is just how cops dress to frighten kitchen employees

It takes a lot of courage to speak out against such practices, and it’s horrifying that she’s again sitting in a detention centre without due process. Again facing possible deportation. Again going without medications and her mobility device. The cruelty is the point:

This is Nazi level eugenics. They’re grabbing people off the streets. They’re disappearing them. Many die in custody and/or are never seen again. Sterilization of ‘undesirables’ is sadly nothing new. It’s a way to push white supremacy.

Again, Bowman's case is not new. Also...the actions taken against her are likely to be retaliation. 🧵👇🏼

Right?

Experts reviewing RFKJr's magnum opus MAHA health report conclude that the whole document was faked by someone using Chatbot AI, and was probably never even proof read. They're not just fraudsters, they're very lazy, too. www.the-independent.com/news/world/a...

I hate these people, and I know someone is going to say that we should be trying to reach them, but I am sick of playing along with their bullshit. They knew, they didn't care until it impacted their community.

I’m proud that San Diego met the escalation with a commensurate show of public solidarity and force. We can not allow there to be any level of force they can deploy that would keep this crowd from forming.

Increasingly clear that these ICE arrest operations are gearing up not because of the actual immigrants, who in all but a tiny handful of cases go along quietly, but because they’re getting so much pushback from onlookers. It’s a vicious cycle; the more they do this, the worst the pushback gets.

Fascism controls through intimidation so it must ramp up its demonstration on scapegoats while also claiming more power through defiance of the rule of law and a normally functioning society. bsky.app/profile/reic...
