“When Americans were looking for some way to resist at the beginning of the second Trump administration, we kind of had to do it ourselves… What if we all went to our state capitals on the same day, protesting with the same message? And that spread rapidly" - Hunter Dunn, @50501movement.bsky.social

Icymi: A week before Thanksgiving, the Trump administration deleted the Federal Report on Missing & Murdered Indigenous Women The ‘Not One More’ report recorded indigenous deaths and disappearances, and provided resources and policy suggestions to address the crisis www.jezebel.com/trump-admin-...

Classic Karen Slayer. Watch til the end.

Agree or disagree?

Fortnite has more than dance moves… Immigrant rights organizers are helping players use the metaverse game to learn how to defend against ICE agents in IRL

This Thanksgiving weekend, my wallet stays shut to Target, Amazon, and Home Depot. If they’re going to cave to anti-DEI pressure, fund this regime, or let ICE kidnap workers, they don’t get a dime from me. Our values aren’t for sale. #WeAintBuyingIt

“The extreme right... The amount of resources behind them and the amount of power that they hold within the political establishment of their party is absolutely asymmetrical." - @melissaryan.bsky.social

Abolishing ICE is only the beginning. Have you looked at your local cops? .. According to mappingpoliceviolence.us, police kill at least three people per day; from a meta analysis published in NYT, we now know the number could be six or even more.

Gmail privacy has always been a misnomer. This is a crisis.

“Trump is losing control of the Republican Party. And that's great. It seems like there's a lot of schisms. What worries me is I think people are sleeping on the fact that MAGA really isn't Trump… The energy that he has unleashed is here to stay." - @laurajedeed.bsky.social

From 👮‍♂️ Eric Adams to 🚙-less Muslim Zohran Mamdani, who’s so anti-Semitic he saved an historical Yiddish bookstore… Yeah, in a New York Minute, everything can change — well, except the built-in police state

Are we great yet⁉️

"The pushback against Republican leadership, that's the thread common to all the victories from coast to coast, north to south, be it federal, be it state, be it mayoral races, school board races, referendums, you name it, the voters came out and voted against Republicans" - @pamkeithdc.bsky.social

99% of us on the wrong side of their doors They get tax breaks, we pay twice, and fight their wars And we wonder why they cut scholarships and aid It’s designed to keep the status quo, we’re the new slaves

Whew! Gotta let this post breathe a little longer. Dr. Chheda has a word for healthcare workers who support the rapist, felon, President. Trump almost died of COVID and you can’t convince me otherwise, yet he’s gutting every program that saves lives. Take a listen. #Pinks #SheShed

go.bsky.app/3ebgG5c Happy Caturday all!!

Paxlovid from Pfizer costs $15 to make and now retails for $1500. Insane

The government shutdown is on Republicans. The refusal to release SNAP benefits is on Republicans. Republicans cannot govern, this is not new information. As a nation, we must recognize this party as the true “Enemy from Within” - let’s be clear!

WE’RE SHUTTING IT DOWN! “Blackout The System has called for a nationwide boycott, urging participants to refrain from working or spending money from Nov. 25 to Dec. 2 as a protest against a damaged government and economic system.” www.blackenterprise.com/economic-bla...

"I think we do an immense disservice to ourselves by playing off the fascists as just idiots. The media fed us that crap. Meanwhile, bro is getting ready to send in National Guard to destroy marginalized communities. So no, let's not... They know what they're doing."

Cool we can fund SNAP, pay air traffic controllers, ACA subsidies, all kinds of stuff. Right when we really need it. When do we get the cash?

“You don't have to be everything to everyone, but you can give yourself and you should give what you can. That's mutual aid. I share with you what I have. You share with me what you have, whether it's skills, resources, talents… As opposed to exploiting and commodifying each other.” - Eric King

Spotify is now running recruitment ads for ICE. It’s time to cancel your account.

As someone doxxed by Andy Ngo, myself, I understand the drama it can bring. His latest target, Daryle Lamont Jenkins is the hero of the film SKIN, and an even greater hero in real life: A Black man who, on his own for decades, has targeted and transformed white supremacists. Now, he needs our help

#CancelSpotify They are running ICE ads. They aren't the only company, but I think we should make an example out of Spotify and do an economic boycott against companies supporting masked, armed agents terrorizing innocent Americans with impunity. Spread the word. www.snopes.com/fact-check/s...

7 million people joined together & marched in the USA No Kings Protest making it the largest in American history! While other countries joined in our movement such as 🇨🇦🇲🇽🇦🇹🇫🇷🇩🇪🇮🇹🇵🇦🇵🇹🇪🇸🇸🇪🇨🇭🇬🇧🇦🇺🇩🇰🇮🇸🇻🇬🇳🇱🇯🇵 & many more It is not about the people in power. It’s about POWER of the PEOPLE! #DefendersOfDemocracy

If a writer were to have a manic episode on Bluesky, surely other writers would come to their aid, right? Wrong. Even if you’re not, and they think you are, they’ll block you and disparagingly quote-post you, instead. Blue-check narcissists, who’ve never engaged, will show up just to punch down.

Let October 18th, our #NoKingsDay, stand as the unyielding moment the People's Defiance drowns out the whisper of the Crown Wannabe. We must send a clear message by rejecting Felon47’s attempt to make this a dictatorship & protect democracy! #TheDefendersOfDemocracy @thedefofdemocracy.bsky.social
