I feel a way about being asked to take advice from how to process the death of a woman murdered trying make sure her neighbors didn’t disappear .. six blocks from where a Black man was compressed to death From people who can’t speak up when every Black person around them is fired or pushed out

...and white ppl are trying to tell the world "oh our country is too big, it's harrrrrd 😔😢😫" I love how this is a portrait of it all.

“i want back my rocking chairs, / solipsist sunsets, / & coastal jungle sounds...” A poem by Renee Nicole Good, who was murdered by ICE earlier today. lithub.com/renee-nicole...

Dear white people: Defeatism is bad … but ? Watch your tone when you tell people especially people of color and Black people and immigrants who have watched for MILLENNIA in the long term and our ENTIRE FUCKING lives in the short . Of whiteness resisting change

If the murder of Renee Nicole Good makes you say “abolish ICE,” but the murder of George Floyd didn’t make you say “abolish cops,” ask yourself why and try to learn from it

ICE surveillance is directly connected to ICE violence. One of the most concrete things that progressive leaders can do in cities targeted by ICE is work to roll back surveillance ASAP: -Cancel contracts with Flock -Ban facial recognition -End private camera registries -Data privacy protections

Our world is all wrong, innocent people keep getting murdered in the streets and the government has so much military and technological power that unless someone from the inside does something crazy, our choices are extremely few. The only *peaceful* option left is a General Strike, honestly.

Oppressed people just want to be left alone. There are no revenge plans. The obsession is not mutual.

Yeah the giveaway was when Trump worked for the mafia for the last 50 years. Before I wrote about it, Wayne Barrett and David Cay Johnston documented it in the 1980s and 1990s. But history doesn't matter to these people.

The author arrives at the same conclusion as @sarahkendzior.bsky.social - Trump is not a fascist because he doesn't want a strong state (because he wants to loot it and sell it for parts). Trump is a mafia boss.

yup. they spent all of yesterday, 07jan26, saying the saaame thing:

White people are white no matter their political affiliation. We cannot afford to ever forget that.

Hello @support.bsky.team @bsky.app @safety.bsky.app Lexi Alexander - @lexialex.bsky.social - appears to have been suspended by your platform again, for providing a voice and platform for Palestinian voices. People didn't leave Elons Pedo app for this kind of erasure.

There will never be a general strike in the US like France or Italy because millions are one unexcused absence from being fired and one firing away from being homeless. Nobody in Europe gets fired, evicted, or loses their health insurance if they strike, so don't blame people here for not doing it.

For real! Thank you Teen Vogue for the history lesson! The Anti-Racist Action Network Fought Police, KKK In 1990s Minneapolis By Anna Stitt October 5, 2020

Thinking about how in 80s Minneapolis teens formed Anti-Racist Action to fuck up Nazis. ARA went national, kicked entire generation of Nazis off US streets And that in 2020, Minneapolis rose up for George Floyd & burned down precinct, inspiring biggest uprising in US history

The classic dictator move of setting up offshore accounts with illicit stolen funds in case they need to flee.

After 10 years, Denmark is now shifting course following alarming figures on children’s mental health and school performance: mobile phones are banned in schools and after-school clubs, a return to textbooks is being rolled out and social media will soon be banned for anyone under 15. #BackToBooks

more people, then, will care. bc: whiteness. ...will this be a tipping point?

In the EXACT same city. Where we took to the streets . While the government is on an openly racialized kidnapping campaign After a DECADE of them Watching us abandon every commitment because of racial fatigue ? Alright cool

I wrote about social media and Black death and trauma being used to be content TWELVE YEARS AGO but you’re shocked about the blatant horror and continuation when you let white folks make millions off of it or soothe yourself around it being content AND HERE WE ARE AGAIN

ICE officer executed a woman. The murder was filmed by observers. The woman was trying to comply with ICE’s orders to leave the area, and she was shot multiple times point blank. This is america - a police fascist state.

The U.S. has seized two sanctioned oil tankers linked to Venezuela in back-to-back actions in the North Atlantic and the Caribbean, officials said Wednesday. https://to.pbs.org/3NxJQzb

FAFO kinda day, h-uh. Y'all be safe out there.

If you offer a bullshit excuse for why you broke the law, you make it easier for people who want to do nothing to do nothing, and it's easier for bystanders to tell themselves they won't be next because the bullshit excuse doesn't apply to them.

My newsletter is back! I wrote about a road trip through Arkansas, Oklahoma, and Texas — and what it tells us about America’s imperial ambitions. sarahkendzior.substack.com/p/the-invaders

Any Dem saying 'reform' ice or DHS is part of the problem, the only option is dump it all

"you can't kill us all" fuck yeah minneapolis

Sooooo! This is like the fifth, 5th, quinto, 🛢️🛢️🛢️🚢 oil tanker that the Trvmp Gvt steals from Venezuela. 𝘽𝙪𝙩𝙩𝙤𝙣𝙨, 𝙩𝙝𝙚𝙮 𝙖𝙧𝙚 𝙥𝙪𝙨𝙝𝙚𝙙.

keep thinking of a vocally anti-woke reporter who insisted that the term "environmental racism" was nonsense

We don’t know their numbers …. But they now think that NOT using AI is enough of a market differentiatior that it’s important to note in public

AI is meant for people who want to know but not understand, create but not practice, and I guess for those who can't even be bothered to get good

Heads up. Sienna rose is an AI artist. They have a Black version of her AND a white on spotify. Apple music also has other variants so be warned and block them.

Apparently Ingram is now screwing over bookstores, not just authors, so if you're an author thinking of setting up direct wholesale to bookstores, your time may be coming 😂

Abusive controlling people and systems depend on isolation because they can’t imagine that people will just leave We are about to see them try and bring back DEI to get new content. If the people “fighting” them had started by focusing on humanity this could have been so much better

Miller is so refreshing to observe, bc his theatrics are naked. He IS what he shows the world. Unlike Schumer or other mouthpieces, what you see is effectively what you'll get. The *only* thing you'll ever get. ...and now, many know.

A society that avoids frustration becomes fragile. People grow less curious and less able to handle problems (which are unavoidable in life!!!). We’re already drifting into mediocrity and if this continues we’ll be intellectually and emotionally (more) easier to manipulate

2-40 hours, depending on the piece 😂
