One of the earliest-ever modern portrayals of Santa Claus features him gifting Union soldiers with a jumping-jack doll of Jefferson Davis dangling from a noose - as drawn by political cartoonist Thomas Nast. www.metmuseum.org/art/collecti...

AI has actively made life worse for literally everyone - tech is now more expensive - you cannot trust most media of reality anymore - programs barely function - energy prices - literal psychosis - your voice can be literally stolen for evil - more spyware but hey, you can avoid paying an artist.

Ahh so he’s just openly admitting his absolutely abysmal and transphobic views on trans people in sports are just fully made without listening to any actual facts on the issues, just shit he’s made up based on fear mongering. Cool cool. But did you know he’s the best on trans? He said so!

Hey folks, when you see pacifist garbage like this being spread, please let them know it's already thoroughly debunked. One of the original authors of this "comparative" methodology worked for the US State Dept for f*s sake. theanarchistlibrary.org/library/pete...

obama ramped up the use of drone strikes (10x more than bush!) and deported a record number of immigrants. he helped maintain and expand the systems trump is now using to do his crimes

sums it up. headlines on crowd sizes and the feeling that maybe something happens (somewhere else) aren’t action, and getting a bunch of people to show up to a party for nothing isn’t organizing. find your people and build something real.

As I have been saying for months now, the only way out is through and part of getting through this is pulling the Band-Aid off now versus later we must now force the fascists hand.

If you are okay with this, if you think this is justified, if you think people living on the street have brought this upon themselves, if you think this is good leadership, you may be able to fool yourself that you care about others but you don’t fool me

I grew up in churches with extremely close ties to FotF and visited their campus often as a kid. I was taught 9/11, the 2004 tsunami in Indonesia, and hurricane Katrina were the fault of us queer folks and that we deserved to die. Rest in piss, you sack of shit. coloradosun.com/2025/08/21/j...

If you think Gavin Newsom is fighting fascism because his comms people post, but the encampment protesters last year were out of line, or Black Lives Matter protesters went too far, or anti-ICE protesters were wrong because they flew Mexican flags, YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT FIGHTING FASCISM LOOKS LIKE.

This is one of the most beautiful things I have witnessed, the craft here is impeccable.

“The AI in the study probably prompted doctors to become over-reliant on its recommendations, ‘leading to clinicians becoming less motivated, less focused, and less responsible when making cognitive decisions without AI assistance,’ the scientists said in the paper.”

Happening now in Camarillo, protesters are desperately facing off against ICE to try to defend America’s farm workers. /

Ann Coulter's statement that "We didn't kill enough Indians" is a call for violence against Native people.

Do not wait to take action until ICE has filled the concentration camps with immigrants. It will be too late then—they will be free to focus all of their forces on you. Do not tell yourself that if you just keep your head down, they'll ignore you. This is war. Fight now while you still can. 🏴

it isn't controversial to say "german citizens in the late 1930s should have killed gestapo and brownshirts on sight and physically pulled down hitler and executed him and his entire command structure at midday in downtown berlin, to prevent the holocaust"

A very scary bill just passed in Ohio for transgender folks. No one but local LGBTQ+ orgs are talking about it. First, Ohio is only recognizing sex assigned at birth, male or female. You can get in trouble for stating otherwise on documents, I imagine. I may need to change my state ID back. 1/5

A good read, and a solid vouch for what actual community building can look like in this space.

the Democrats don’t want to impeach. the Democrats don’t want to oppose kidnapping and human trafficking into concentration camps or slavery. the Democrats oppose protecting trans people from genocide, and they support actively perpetrating it against Palestinians. they are collaborators.

Zaddy.

A Harvard study of IDF data finds that there are 377,000 people unaccounted for in Gaza. That estimate is six times the number of people normally cited as killed. Genocide. medium.com/@m4xim1l1an/...

OTD in 2008, Vincennes detention center, France's largest detention center, was completely destroyed by several deliberate fires. the reason was the death of a Tunisian undocumented immigrant.

I am glad that I wrote this article. McBride did real damage with her interview, as should be clear by people who are allies and even some trans people arguing for sports bans. I can promise you that capitulating won’t slow down the extreme stripping of rights. If anything it’ll speed it up.

The reason liberals are convinced that ICE agents and cops are actually secretly J6 rioters is that they can't accept that their good liberal institutions are actually the gun the fascist state is using to execute them Moreover, ICE must be destroyed

Im begging you all to block these alt accounts. They’re a massive and transparent grift. The national Parks one does full on Q drops ffs

You will notice these are new hotels from yesterday's post, they got kicked the fuck OUT

The Alt National Park Service account calls itself the official "resistance" team of the US National Park Service. With 887k followers, is one of the biggest accounts on Bluesky. It is the 11 most followed account according to some trackers. This thread will dive into its activity. 🧵 1/x.

"Arturo Roberto Gamboa was lawfully exercising his 2nd amendment rights as he had before when security guards got spooked by him. These un-named shooters shot Arturo Roberto Gamboa and shot and killed Arthur Folasa Ah Loo." gileriodekel.com/2025/06/artu...

Bees in solidarity with protesters

The armed, yellow-vested "peacekeepers" at the Utah 50501 protest in Salt Lake City opened fire into a crowd, hitting two people: A Sāmoan fashion designer with two young kids, who died. A second-generation Venezuelan immigrant and antiracist protester who was legally carrying. Cops charged HIM.

Remind me to do a thread on police crowd control formations. This is known as the "crossbow" formation, a riot police at the front with a column formed up behind it. The column will burst through the front to surprise the crowd. Often used as an arrest team to grab someone, sometimes for shock.

I don't say this to downplay the protests. It's great to see people out there. What I am saying is that if people think peaceful protest once a month waiving a few signs will topple or hamstring the regime, they're sorely mistaken. You need something like euromaidan to put a stop to this.

This is how LAPD treats our elders. Never forget.

You truly cannot lump people who run into burning buildings and render life-saving medical care into the same category of people who shoot the family dog and put your grandma in a chokehold.

MSNBC reporter in gas mask in Los Angeles: I think it was Sheriffs deploying CS gas, tear gas, pepper spray, and flash bang grenades in large numbers. Mounted units pushing against protesters.., every single gathering I saw today was 100% peaceful

Yesterday at the Miami “No Kings” rally this pair arrived dressed in tactical gear to intimidate attendees & illegally impersonate ICE agents. Let’s meet father & son team 55 yr old Rolando “Roly” Levielle & his 23 yr old son Anthony Levielle of Cutler Bay, FL. 🧵1/

scholar of partisan violence/Latin American Dirty Wars here: there is nothing to distinguish this from how people were taken in Argentina, Guatemala, Chile, etc, except that it's all on camera

Every blue state should be calling emergency sessions to set up systems of actual authority and mutual aid in an effort to protect their citizens and themselves from the coming war between the federal government and democratically held states.

ICE seemingly confirms they are using National Guard as security to conduct immigration raids. Let's call this what it is, militarized ethnic cleansing.

Re: the big No Kings protests this weekend, remember that the corporate media, politicians, etc are obviously champing at the bit to be able to force a “good protestors vs bad protestors” narrative to discredit the anti-ICE/anti-genocide movement. Do not let them. Embrace a diversity of tactics.

Fascist will be violent with or without pretext, and the history of antifascist movements is one of violent struggle.

leftists: that thing you teach us in school to be terrified of is happening historians: that thing is definitely happening star wars: here is a beat-for-beat breakdown of how the thing happens, but with pew pew lasers. we know you watched it news outlets: these protesters are out of control

Bro gets hotter with every single thing I learn about him

I try not to second guess protest tactics but please do not sit or kneel in front of riot cops. It puts your head at impact munition height.

WESTIN LAX HAS CONFIRMED TO ME DIRECTLY ICE IS STAYING AT THEIR HOTEL.
