"The government gives them the drugs, builds bigger prisons, passes a three-strike law, and then wants us to sing 'God Bless America.' No, no, no. Not 'God Bless America,' God damn America. It's in the Bible. We're killing innocent people. The government lied." -Rev Jeremiah Wright

So much commentary boils down to “I can’t believe they’d do this to white people” to me and maybe I’m wrong but that’s just how I feel.

"...one of the things that helped people accept their work as concentration camp guards was that the terrible conditions of the camps themselves made the prisoners’ literal filth synonymous with their inherent filthiness. " www.welcometohellworld.com/look-at-what...

I think at this point, it's clear that the DOJ is covering up the fact that Donald Trump raped a child. He's a pedophile rapist.

One of the more depressing things about getting old is experiencing the entirety forseeable consequences of the choices we freely made forty years ago.

“The teacher is of course an artist, but being an artist does not mean that he or she can make the profile, can shape the students. What the educator does in teaching is to make it possible for the students to become themselves.”

historical detail I can't help but bring up: by some accounts, the event that instigated the British soldiers to open fire on Crispus Attacks and the rest of the crowd in the Boston Massacre was a soldier being hit by a snowball

One would think that this would merit an emergency convening of all Blue state governors, Attorneys generals and Congressional representatives. It's a declaration of war on one state which means they'll do it to others too.

The Constitution clearly gives Congress the power to spend taxpayer funds, and no law allows the president to halt if he feels some US states aren’t being “good stewards” of the money. In case there’s any confusion on this, the Impoundment Control Act forbids it. Taxation without representation.

Aquafina’s and McDouble’s is hilarious.

The NYT's is owned by a Republican Billionaire So you know the Epstein cover up is just getting worse for this Pedo when even they are printing a story like this And she wasn't just "assaulted." She was 14 years old & trump r$ped & hit her. Huge difference

Please read this article to the end. Even before ICE got involved, this started because this *blind man who speaks no English and uses a curtain rod as a walking stick* got lost on a walk and some Karen called the police on him and they tasered and beat him bc he didn’t drop the rod. WTF

what happened to public education in underfunded districts after covid is a tragedy that we have yet to fully reckon with - edtech/snakeoil salesmen got their wish

I’m not going to get into this again but the defund the police critique remains complete bullshit yes we can was nonspecific lock her up doesn’t lay out why or for what make america great again couldn’t be less specific this critique is pure reactionary nonsense filtered through pundits

April 24 2008 NY Post: Epstein visited Israel for Passover. Took a tour of military bases w/Friends of Israel chairman, Benny Shabtai & met with Israeli scientists. Little more than a month later, his secret plea deal was revealed.

howard lutnick stole hundreds of millions of dollars from 9/11 widows and brought his own children to pedophile island

it's funny how the best music venue in boston is actually in medford, ma

Almost literally the case with Howard Lutnick

can't stop thinking about how this degenerate pedophile was the main 'economy' guy for every democratic administration since Bill Clinton

i find the ads for delivery apps so disturbing because u never see gig labor behind it-it's shown as frictionless couple of buttons u press and *boom* stuff is there, it never shows exploited labor that allows any of this to function because then you might feel bad about getting mcdonald's delivered

some reporter should find out what crime epstein said he helped kraft cover up - i'm sure it's more depraved than anything we could ever imagine

Every time there is new abolitionist or abolitionist-adjacent discourse, I always keep in mind that social media skews white, middle class, and highly educated. This is not the group on the receiving end of police abuses, it is the group that ~calls~ the police.
