Look, if you would rather watch your neighbors get taken to camps than shoot somebody, you're a coward whose opinion I detest. I do not respect your "pacifism" when it enables others to be brutalized. It's that simple. You're not in the right, and you're morally inferior to every gangster.

Ain't y'all learned yet to actually care about somebody else but yourselves? Some of y'all white folks are putting yourselves on the front lines battling ICE & that's commendable. The rest of y'all, start by living everyday like people who aren't white matter as much as you. You will advance us.

The majority of the USA wants exactly that, but wants to pretend it's something different.

Im a single issue voter: i refuse to vote for anyone who feels it is acceptable for some group to have less rights, just so I can be more comfortable.

Yeah, I’m a single-issue voter. Here’s my single issue: I won’t vote for any politician who believes I’m not a woman. Oh, does that seem simplistic to you, even childish and petty? Here, let me explain.

Yes, because the fash have guns and the will to use them, while their theoretical opposition would rather watch their neighbors get sent to concentration camps than shoot someone.

Ken Paxton was indicted for scamming his own friends. He convinced them to invest hundreds of thousands in a company while secretly pocketing a commission. Paxton sold out his own friends for a quick buck. What makes you think he won't sell you out in the Senate?

🚨 BREAKING: A federal appeals court has ruled, in a 2-1 decision, that the Trump-Hegseth transgender military ban is likely unconstitutional, finding that the policy appears to be driven by a “bare desire to harm a politically unpopular group” and is “both arbitrary and based upon animus.” 1/3

people who don’t follow politics until the ceiling is about to collapse are always going up to politically literate people and accusing us of causing the crisis

Political positions considered Leftist in America are just common sense in other countries.

I keep thinking I need to be less angry, less vitriolic about this regime and all the untrained dogs who work for it, but then shit like this happens and I have trouble understanding anyone who isn't incandescent with rage.

Today, I signed an Executive Order temporarily repealing bedtimes in the City of New York so that kids of all ages can watch our team in the NBA Finals. As Mayor, you’re forced to make many difficult decisions. This was not one of them. Go Knicks.

Netanyahu cannot let peace occur because then he will be prosecuted for his crimes.

This whole thing where people are celebrating Trump possibly giving up his slush fund for the Jan 6ers is exactly what I’m talking about with democrats not fighting. There needs to be trials over the fact it even got announced. It was attempted bribery. Full stop.

Saw two people arguing about which is better: corriander or cilantro... Its only Tuesday.

😌

Nearly impossible to tell the difference between liberals and conservatives anymore.

I want Hollywood to make a movie where a person with chronic pain that was denied medical care from their insurer, kidnaps the CEO and makes them experience all the same pain.

We have come to this earth to be born in the final age of American empire. We each have a place we will stand in this time. My place is mitigating the collapse through community care & ushering in the new age, even if I don't live to see it, through works of creative art & critical discussion.

I just saw people on Reddit pressuring a rural teenager to come out and telling them it’s their duty because we need people in the fight, and that to me is fucked up. No one has to come out. You can choose safety. That’s literally not my business. We gotta stop eating each other.

We're never going to be free of fascism as long as we keep voting for "slightly less fascism", and not having any actual standards when it comes to who we elect.

It's crazy how we have both the World Cup and America 250 this year, and almost no one cares about them because this regime has wholly sucked the joy out of even momentous national events.

Can someone please explain why the Israelis taken by Hamas were “hostages,” but the thousands of Palestinians taken by Israel, who have been systematically abused, starved, tortured and serially raped to death are “prisoners” or “detainees”? I’ll wait.

Too many people are worried about who's going to be on the primary stage in 2028 instead of stopping the coup it's actively going on.

Listen if Dem governors aren't even going to side with their constituents over the fashy feds but our only option is to support the Dems because otherwise that's choosing the fash... we're fucked. This is an entirely fucked approach to living in a society.

But voot bloo no matter how. Because blue fascists are better than red fascists, for some reason.

Just vote Blue 🤡

Jewish people did not ever leave Palestine, they were always an important part of its cultural fabric, in harmony with those of other faiths. Also many are Arab. Israelis are white European settlers & a few who aren’t white who decided to make an ethnostate.

The ICE agent charged with shooting a Venezuelan immigrant in north Minneapolis during Operation Metro Surge and lying about the circumstances has been arrested in Texas after Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension agents tracked him there.

Fuck anyone saying "if this were happening to any other community" when it comes to anti rights backslides and threats to community events. We are all of us facing escalating hate crimes and all of us have been for a long time.

And the most pathetic and disgusting part is that they would.

When being anti-fascists is considered terrorism you live in a fascist country.

We no longer have to leave the country to fight fascism.

"Over time it became difficult to distinguish the policies of Black and white mayors, as both were beholden to the police and corporations in their cities and thereby unwilling (and often lacking any real power) to advance policies to help rank-and-file Black Americans." Whew. That's Andre Dickens.

And no, you can't "Vote Blue, no matter who!🤡" Your way out of this mess. The Dem front-runner for governor of Minnesota is the person that prevented Derek Chauvin from being prosecuted throughout his reign of terror. 🤷🏿‍♂️ The Dem front-runner for governor of California did the same for CA cops. 🤷🏿‍♂️

No Helen of Troy was probably not Kenyan, but I am more certain that Odysseus would not have been from Boston so I guess we'll all need a little suspension of disbelief when watching this modern film adaptation of a 2800 year old work of fiction.

🔥🔥🔥 Oh... People are not going to like this article. It borders on blasphemous to even suggest that maybe we should listen to the new generation of young Black leaders.🤷🏿‍♂️

To all these politicians saying they are going to read the Epstein list in Congress. Fuck you. You aren’t going to do shit. 🖕

You have to actually listen to Palestinians, not infantilize them towards your higher ideals of how to solve their struggle. The reason I support the flotilla is because I talk to a lot of Palestinians every single day who support it. We're to be in support of their liberation with them at the head.

The only people screaming "Bluesky is a dying bubble" are people who expect every social media site to be like Twitter. A constant fight for engagement. A place where metrics is rewarding. They're just mad that Bluesky isn't More Twitter.

Anyone who 100% guarantees they'll have my back but thinks its too risky to protect trans kids is someone I have zero confidence to have my back if doing so ever becomes risky.

You don't defeat fascism by choosing tiny slivers of vulnerable populations to sacrifice to it. That's how your coalition shrinks until you die a coward. You defeat fascism by putting the vulnerable populations in the center, and forming a circle around them.

I'm not voting for a candidate that wants fascism for trans kids, but safety for me. Don't try to sell me that you're worried about rising fascism, if you think there's enough of a safety margin to throw away the 5% to 10% of anti-fascist votes that you will lose by backing an anti-trans candidate.

“We gotta stop acting like the slightest inconvenience is more important than our freedom. They’re doing reparations in our face and giving it to January 6ers…they are laughing in our face because they know that we will not actually divest to the point of actually making change.”―Lynae Vanee #PINKS

I Googled my symptoms... Turns out 1 need to quit my job and stay home with my cat 🐈

Is he dead yet?

The *ONLY* time a "Shut up Wesley!" is appropriate.

ALSO I think its very funny to call baky a bubble like the early internet wasnt a bunch of separate web forums and chatrooms centered around some niche thing. People clustered into groups. Always did. And it was fun
