New polling shows 77% of Democrat voters thinks Israel is committing genocide; half of the country (all voters) thinks Israel is committing genocide; Americans now sympathize more with Palestinians than Israelis for the first time ever; + Democrat voters overwhelmingly oppose sending more weapons.

No, that’s only you, Zuck. The rest of us have actual friends.

“This isn’t just another Trump administration clusterfuck. This is institutional capture with surgical precision. They’re not just replacing leaders—dudes, they’re gutting the machinery of government itself. @iamjolorenz.bsky.social Here’s what we can do about it: open.substack.com/pub/theprogr...

While billionaires measure their knob-rockets and politicians debate who deserves to live, communities are quietly building something they can't control, can't co-opt, and can't stop. Here's your guide to finding (or starting) mutual aid networks near you:

“Fascism’s favorite weapon isn’t violence—it’s keeping us distracted with manufactured outrage while democracy dies in broad daylight.” The most eloquent, yet succinct, reminders of what and why to keep focused on moving forward. @theprogressivists.com @iamjolorenz.bsky.social

2023: "I was the worst!" 2024: "Hold my weapons contract . . ."

70,000 men were just caught sharing sexual assault tactics in group chats. And the good guys™ are more outraged by this post than that fact.

A generation learned to count bodies under desks before they learned algebra. Now we're shocked when they do corner office calculations?

They've convinced us there isn't enough to go around while building super yachts with helicopter pads. New research proves we only need 30% of global resources for everyone to survive. The math is clear: Your death isn't just inevitable — it's profitable.

We taught an entire generation of kids to hide from death between math and recess — now we’re clutching our Patagonia vests because they don’t shed tears over a healthcare executive who denied coverage to cancer patients while pocketing millions?

Explain to us how their spreadsheet deaths don’t count as terrorism . . .

The NYPD is working to keep the flow of Amazon goods moving in NYC despite the strike. They’re breaking the Teamster picket line as best they can and serving Jeff Bezos. Working people everywhere should oppose policing for so many different reason.

If you see anyone talking about how the Amazon strike could disrupt the flow of packages:

A nation where people ration insulin while UnitedHealthcare posts $324B in revenue isn't a society. It's a pressure cooker.

Here’s the thing about *selective* anti-racism: It’s just fucking racism with better PR.

Let Them Eat Deductibles

The road to authoritarianism is paved with bills like HR 9495. We must make our voices heard before we lose the ability to disagree with the government without being labeled a “terrorist". Read more and support our Substack: theprogressivists.substack.com/p/how-hr-949...

Okay y’all. It’s ☎️ time. #HR9495, a.k.a. the *Dictator’s Little Helper* bill, is a threat to democracy that must be stopped. Passed by the House today, 219-184, the bill empowers the Treasury Secretary to unilaterally label nonprofits as “terrorist-supporting” and revoke their tax-exempt status.

Hey y'all, don't forget, there's plenty of room at The Hague theprogressivists.substack.com/p/bibis-warr...

When the guy wearing the funny hat who usually sticks to blessing people starts using the g-word, maybe it’s time for our *devout Catholic* politicians do more than just clutch their rosaries and sign another blank check.

‪Elon Musk is clearly a representative of a global billionaire class with no loyalty to Americans so if he's slashing public programs as co-president, history will mark this down as a hostile takeover of the US. ‬This is bigger than just Putin or Netanyahu. It's all the nameless, faceless oligarchs.

“Israel’s escalated assault on Lebanon is killing three children each day on average”

Everyone please give a follow to our friend @iamjolorenz.bsky.social who is a legend working tirelessly against fascism from all corners of the world. I've known her for a long time and she's iconic. 🔥

Real people — fathers, sons, brothers, teachers, poets, doctors — consistently stripped of their dignity and basic human rights, right before our eyes. This isn't history. This isn't a future sci-fi novel. This is happening right NOW, funded by our tax dollars. #FreePalestine!

Introduce yourself in the comments by telling us the decade you were born, where you're from, and why you're on Bluesky. I'll go first: I'm a millennial born in the 90s, I'm from Long Island, and I'm here to connect with like-minded people away from all the bots & fascists on Twitter.

"There are neo-Nazis on both sides"

Israeli media reports that IDF soldiers prevented starving Palestinian families from receiving aid and then set fire to it. Meanwhile, U.S. media thinks our eyeballs are broken and continues to focus on *self-defense* in nightly segments.

The world's self-proclaimed *leader of the free world* has no genuine left party — and holy fuck but look at where that's got us. But hope is not lost. If we're smart about it . . .

The United States' political system is like watching two conservative uncles argue over turkey-carving techniques at Thanksgiving dinner while the house burns down and your cousin whispers "pass the imperialism, please".

Every bomb dropped on Gaza and Lebanon today was Made in America™, bought with your money, and greenlit by your president. Still think you're not involved?

Right now, we COULD be ending fascist bloodlust, fixing healthcare, fighting climate change, addressing inequality. Instead, we're tiptoeing around: 1. White America choosing fascism because that IS white America. 2. The Dems preferring to court racist votes than give a fuck about humanity. 6/8

We need to cut to the gangrenous core of our 'How The Fuck We Got Here' post-mortem: WE didn't lose this. The Democrats lost this. Aided by white America voting for fascism. And we on the left need to stop blaming each other. 4/8

Defeating one wannabe dictator won't save us. Playing electoral whack-a-mole isn't revolution. U.S. elections don't just devastate marginalized Americans — they traumatize the entire world. Palestine, Sudan, Congo, Lebanon, Haiti, Tigray, Syria + Yemen all bear the cost of U.S. exceptionalism. 3/8

EIGHT YEARS AGO, high on righteous rage, we (a white couple) launched 'We Fucking Hate Donald Trump' on Instagram, which later became this account (because clearly, what the world needed was another anger-fueled account run by well-meaning white liberals). 🧵1/8

Remember when the cops executed four people over less than the cost of a gallon of milk, while our esteemed political leadership maintained their usual laser focus on . . . saving America 🫠
