The actual sentiment I keep seeing expressed on my skyline by (non-Black) people, eg “ICE isn’t engaged in actual law enforcement!” 🗣️ THEN WHAT ARE THEY ENGAGED IN, KAREN?!

Too many people are trying to differentiate between ICE and police. I will hold your hand as I say this: Police in the US treat marginalized people the way ICE treats everyone. They're far more similar than you want to admit. Defunding the police and abolishing ICE are the same fight.

“Y’all are just getting here. And I need to know: WHY?” #QTNA #CognitiveDissonance #WhiteSupremacy

Recently, an organizer on @democracynow.org was asked: “Do you want to see ICE officers arrested by local law enforcement [for breaking the law]?” And she responded, “That would be the dream!” THAT’S THE DREAM?!?! As we’re literally watching this all unfold?! 🗣️ WE’RE COOKED!!!

🗣️ THIS!

Black people five years ago: you know, they can kill anyone they want to out there Everybody today: hot damn, did you know they can kill anyone they want to out there?

I recently rewatched the Namek saga, and #Frieza continues to be the original Non-Binary Baddie

🗣️ WAKE IT UP!

Nicki Minaj is not a U.S. citizen; she was born in Trinidad and Tobago and moved to the U.S. as a child. She's going FULL MAGA to avoid ICE and being kidnapped. But her fanbase is just crazy enough to eliminate ICE. ICE, if you're reading this, arrest Nicki Minaj. I'm trying to see something.

Been watching all these throwback Black movies on YouTube, and I gotta say: #TheWood is still good as hell, all these years later 😭

I get flowers regularly for my ancestral altar and have this *exact* experience; people talking bout, “She’s so lucky!” and I’m looking at them like:

This new #SummerWalker album is so damn good, and the songs have so many layers For example: #No doesn’t just sample Bey’s “Yes,” the hook is also a nod to #NoNoNo by Destiny’s Child! 🔥🔥🔥

This also helps explain the attacks on critical race theory and critical race theorists in particular

I’m def a freaky frog, cause I saw that pic of him and wifey and said to myself:

The racist and misogynist myth of the “Welfare Queen” is alive and well. The focus on SNAP has brought it back to national prominence. But please note: It never, ever went away. It shows up all the time. The entire trope around undeserving people has a poisonous line through our policies.

While this is hard to confront, it’s absolutely the truth. We are in the midst of a Second Redemption (google “redemption” to find out what happened during the first one)

What an icon!

This is why I think Dems aren’t going to come back to power in the foreseeable future: rather than offer a vision for a multiracial, inclusive future, they keep offering a future where only white people will be treated as full citizens

I already had this #Cardi album on repeat, and now #MTS done released #LoverGirl 🗣️ FEMALE EMCEES ARE DOING THE DAMN THING!

🗣️ UNGODLY HOUR!

I’m what’s known as a “gold star gay”: I’ve only ever been with guys, never a woman 🗣️ BUT I’M READY TO CHANGE ALL DAT FOR MEG! PLEASE HAVE YOUR WAY WITH ME, GODDESS!!! #MTS #LoverGirl #Hotties

Damn, still sinking in that we lost #DeAngelo. But what a great lil’ tribute here

Just realized my dean is the same kind of evil conformist as the male camp counselor in Addams Family Values and 🗣️ I’M SCREAMING 🤣

Glad this brother captured how *incredible* #ComputerLove is, from beginning to end

Stumbled upon anaiis a few weeks back, and this is one of my fave songs from her album. Melody/vibe reminds me a lot of #Feist

This new #SabrinaCarpenter album is giving #UnderTheBlackLight by #RiloKiley, but updated. Taking me back to my 20s and summers in the City 😭

I’m loving this season of #ProjectRunway. Not just talented contestants, but love the energy/realness that #LawRoach brings. I’ve been seeing a lot of yt folks say it’s “too dramatic” and that they won’t watch anymore, but I think they actually just dislike seeing a Black femme who’s opinionated 💅🏾

a message; a word.

Re-upping this from November. Some of us have consistently tried to warn about what was to come. Many of us were treated as hysterical.

We have a two-part dilemma: (1) we don’t have a *national* movement fighting back against all of this, and (2) building that type of movement feels impossible when so many white & other non-Black people gleefully and willingly chose this. Things are rapidly deteriorating, and I fear for the future.

I find these times to be terrifying, especially because I know that they are NOT unprecedented: for the majority of this country’s history, Black people have been subjected to the whims of white people, whether private citizens or police officers — there was no “rule of law” that applied to us.

🗣️ YOU HEAR ME?!?!

🗣️ I DON’T APPRECIATE FOLKS TAKING PICTURES OF WHAT I CHOOSE TO DO WITH MEN IN THE PRIVACY OF MY OWN BEDROOM!

I guess I just want to say that Trump has captured every single institution. You can track variation in, say, court decisions or changing positions on tariffs but even conceding those things accepts that his whims run institutions’ priorities. Not a single one of them really stood.

I want *OFF* of this fucking timeline. Amerikkka is enabling the genocide of Palestinians. Musk is a Nazi who has ruined thousands of lives. Trump is disappearing nonwhite people to foreign gulags and Dems aren’t doing a damn thing about it. But the *scandal* is the fucking Epstein files?!?!

This was a successful campaign that we need to launch against *every* elected official, starting with those closest to Trump, like Stephen Miller and Pam Bondi. How do we hit these people in their pockets? How do we make them so unpopular that they can’t show their faces publicly? #TeslaTakedown

This was such a GREAT #AllStars season. They were all so incredibly talented and up to the very last lipsync, I didn’t know who would win. You were absolutely fantastic #Jorgeous, it just wasn’t your time. CONGRATS, #Ginger!!!! #DragRace #RPDR

I’m rewatching the second Addams Family right now, and I need y’all to understand: this movie is PEAK comedy. White Chicks is forever #1, but this is a *very* close second, indubitably 🙂‍↔️

JOIN a radical leftist organization that organizes the working class.

This person has ~28K followers despite being an ignoramus AND has the audacity to be wearing a Black beret (a la The Panthers) even though he’s a self-proclaimed pig/officer who fights “terrorism” on behalf of the Amerikkkan empire. Folks: we’ve *got* to stop treating all skin folk as kin folk.

I’m rewatching #SATC & it’s still hilarious as hell…but some things have not stood up well. Prime example: Samantha dating a Black man for the first time, f*cking up slang & using terms like BBC, then getting into a physical fight with his sister (implying Black folks are prone to violence)

I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE. This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined. It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.

In Feb. on Velshi I said Trump won due to racial anxiety not economic anxiety, as evidence by his policies. The bill Republicans passed is the proof. Months of stoking racial fears through anti-DEI mandates, ICE raids, to push through a bill that takes food and healthcare from struggling Americans.

These two 🫶🏾❤️🫶🏾

This makes no sense and shows you lack critical thinking skills. (1) A politician can be against Muslims and leftists without being a Nazi, e.g Gillibrand and Jeffries (2) Politicians can be beholden to corporations while also doing the bare minimum to keep voters on their side, eg oppose the bill

This type of statement, while well-intentioned, diverts us from reality: (1) Most Dems also believe being Muslim OR leftist should disqualify you from political office, (2) Dems do not care about public opinion & are only beholden to corporate interests, which is why they won’t resign or lose office
