For those who were in my Discord, "Resist Rebel Revolt Fascism" ... it has been raided. *Sigh* all members were kicked out, most channels were deleted, & they created about 3,000 spam messages. Very very very disappointing. After 9 months together, now I'm forced to start from scratch. 😵

I'm sick and tired of being sick and tired of these sadists running amok. They're thieves, murderers, and rapists. And those are only the crimes they publicly brag about. Enough is enough. Every single cell in my body is ready to turn the page on this national nightmare.

🔥 Trump has thrown everything he has at us. Insulted us, divided us, threatened us, targeted us, & yet he hasn’t even come close to breaking us. He has revealed the worst in America, but in the process, has also awakened the best. America will rise. -Carlos Alvarez-Aranyos, No Kings Co-Founder 👑

🚨NEW: A new poll Americans’ support for Medicare For All has intensified to the point where the old attacks may no longer work. As both parties legislate criticism of socialism, there has been a 50-point shift on a key question in just 6 years. This is YUGE. substack.com/home/post/p-...

I experienced that lawlessness in Russia & it shocked me every day I was there. Laws were a pretense. Everybody, from citizen to gov official existed in a bribery structure that replaced the law. It normalized immorality & invited people who might otherwise play by the rules to give up on them. 🧵

Was at neighbors for Thanksgiving when other neighbor called for 1st time in 5 years to ask if we were alive cause dogs were so distressed. 🫣 So winner of sad dog drama award goes to..... FREYJA, the howling GSP. Whose torture chamber was warm house, with bully stick, water, and big sister. 😑🙄

Life is short. There is plenty of time to be angry, sad, & scared. Save some time to breathe, appreciate things that make you feel happy, & smell the beautiful flowers as they bloom. It will nourish & sustain you.

Turning off the internet for the day. Please remember that every time you feel stressed your body is releasing cortisol. Choosing to flood your system with cortisol every day creates: weight gain, acne, high blood pressure, heartburn, slower healing, & lack of focus. For your own health: BREATHE!

Earlier I distinguished the difference between socialism & social democracies (nordic capitalism). Someone asked me why socialism is bad. In good faith I answered with this thread: 🧵👇 Then they blocked me. 🥸 I wonder if this was a block-worthy assessment of socialism. 🤷‍♀️

The American society loathes women and loathes their contributions to society. So they divert our resources to power, capital, and war. Instead of healthcare, childcare, and education. They believe helping people is socialism. When really, helping people is feminine. THAT'S why they hate it.

🧵 There are many people on the internet right now claiming that FDR was a socialist. No. He was a pro-labor president. Which means he was pro-union & pro-welfare. Within capitalism. His enemies accused him of being socialist to denigrate his cause. But Socialism & Unions are not the same systems.

🧵 If the Heritage Foundation is giving Denmark this excellent ranking as 7th in Free Market capitalism: Despite the fact that Denmark taxes corporations, has strong unions, universal healthcare, & other welfare programs... Then why can't we be Denmark? We'd be a prime example of the free market!

James Carville, in his NYT Op-ed, says it's time for Democrats to "embrace a sweeping, aggressive, unvarnished, unapologetic, and altogether unmistakable platform of pure economic rage. The most populist platform since the Great Depression." I can dig it. Resistance. Reformation. Revolution.

Musk turned on a feature on X that showed country of origin. He disabled it a couple hours later when it was revealed how many MAGA accounts aren't in the U.S. Foreign bot disinformation machines exposed. Seems like Twitter could have done that feature 15 years ago & we wouldn't be here today.

The unfortunate con of American capitalism is successfully convincing Americans that all of OUR tax money should be spent subsidizing billionaire's excessive greed. And WE'RE weak if any of our tax dollars ever come back to subsidize OUR fundamental needs. They teach us to hate receiving help! 🧵

A # of problems would have been greatly reduced by white men simply liking themselves instead of measuring their self-worth by the oppression of others. The ideology of white supremacy & patriarchy is a collective self-esteem failure that prevented many people from building a self-worth on merit.

I made this clip to illustrate my 10 year love-hate experience on Twitter and what made me finally walk away. 🤣😂

THREAD: One reason I haven't complained about Democrats this year is the simple math that 218 House Votes & 67 Senate Votes are required for impeachment. There is no way Democrats, ALONE can save us. Less still if we actively erode them. What we actually need is Republicans to defect. 🧵

MTG's 10 min message on why she's resigning from congress in Jan 2026. Is she going to run for president? 🤪😝 This makes me think she's not trying to get OUT of the game... It sounds like she's trying to get further in it.

You know you've been conditioned to live in a black & white paradigm when you have no ability to distinguish between -Marxism -Communism -Socialism -Democratic Socialism If all those words scream in your brain BAD, but you can't describe their differences, you've been conditioned to feel this way

If you want to save America from Trump but you refuse to work with people who are not identical to you. People who look at the world differently... Then you're lying. You DON'T want to save us from Trump. Multiplicity is the only math that logically saves us. Bipartisanship is a requirement. 🧵

“You think your pain and your heartbreak are unprecedented in the history of the world, but then you read. It was books that taught me that the things that tormented me most were the very things that connected me with all the people who were alive, who had ever been alive.” James Baldwin

I only remember a handful of Tweets from over the years. But one that will stick with me forever is when someone once said: We have enough money in this world to feed every man, woman, and child. But we'll never have enough money on this planet to satiate the insatiable appetite of billionaires.

🔥💯 Pete Buttigieg in London: I didn't come here to tell everybody that things are better than they look. Things will get worse. Yet, I'm optimistic because things have reached the point where we will have to fashion something new. & In order to hasten that day, we better paint that picture now.

For those who refuse to take a win that Republicans passed the Epstein Bill with unanimous consent (save for 1 lone R) you’re missing how MASSIVE this is. The minority party just put the majority party on their heels. Forcing them, the DOJ, & the Reality TV Fascist to acquiesce to THEIR demands. 🧵

This is hilarious. 😅 This Republican is a straight shooter, with Old Tennessee sayings to boot. Watch as he talks about their attempt to ban Congressional Stock Trading. He includes: Fonzi quotes. Admiration for swamps (beauty in Mother Nature). TN idioms. And the words "daggommit" & "damgum." 🤣😂

Just putting this here to remind everybody that we’ve been recipients of corporate propaganda for decades. And we’re living some kind of grand climax of this propaganda paradigm coming to a head in the age of 2025. www.nbcnews.com/think/opinio...

For those who think Johnson is some chess strategist with a plan to stop the Epstein files... I ask does this look like a man with a plan? It appears he did not anticipate the senate would approve of the bill with unanimous consent. Dodgy. Nervous. Flailing.

Epstein Petition passes 427-1 in the house. One lone Republican voted against releasing them. These files must be so horrendous & unconscionable that even shameless Republicans are trying to distance themselves from the scandal. Senate passed it with unanimous consent as well. Blow the lid open!

And Trump is just the man of all men. The most Alpha Male of the Alpha Men. The excesses of a man's world come to a head. A world that never let women balance it out.

Like the mythology of the lone hero or the single savior who saves us. I think too many people put attention into the heroic figurehead - the pedestal of masculinity. Thinking it's all we need. But politics is a network of leaders & it functions only when the support system is under the president.

The problem is: the American patriarchy won't let us care for others. These man-made rules forbid compassion and forbid women from changing society into a more compassionate place. They idealize machismo, the rugged masculine man, the lone ranger, rugged individuality. Every man for himself.

What Bernie made sure nobody ever realized was that Hillary Clinton suggested universal healthcare before he did. They give credit to the socialist man for an idea natural to women. If they had only let women rule, we'd be doing all of these things already. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clinton...

The thing I can't understand is how DJT learned that in April 1945 Hitler shot himself in the head to evade execution while Mussolini's dead body was hung upside down in a town square & mutilated by his own people ... & then said to himself: you know, I think fascism has a happy ending for me.

Why is abuse the tradeoff to staying informed? I went back to X for 3 mos before the election just to stay informed. It was so abusive. The fact that I've been on Bluesky for 1 yr without needing Prozac means that I can stay informed WHILE staying safe & sane. The tradeoff is an abusive con.

Just thinking about that time DOJ Deputy Chief Joseph Schnitt bragged to his date that they'd redact all of the Republicans from the Epstein Files & leave only the Democrats. Hey @oversightdemocrats.house.gov why not subpoena this guy? He's been in the DOJ for 23 years. Make him sing like a canary!

One reason the Trump admin will fail is that they were supposed to make the world a simpler place for their voters. Collapse the complexity & restore order. It was their false promise. Instead, they made everything MORE complex. Hundreds of times more. This will make their own voters turn on them.

Bluesky daily usage is down in Oct 2025. Shame that people went back to The Bad Place. While this article calls users judgy: I get on average 95% good comments here. A scroll through Threads, they receive 75% bashing. The internet is hateful & judgy, bottom line. www.forbes.com/sites/conorm...
