James Baldwin put it best: “Not everything that is faced can be changed, but nothing can be changed until it is faced.” It begins with the courage to call fascism by its name.

“Fascism” isn’t a slur for politics we don’t like. It’s a precise word with precise meaning. And in the face of what’s happening right now in America, it’s the most honest one we have. I’ll lay it out as plainly as I can. 🧵

Keep reporting this. People need to understand the critical importance academic freedom has on the safeguarding of democracy and civil liberties. The vast majority of us are good people trying to help others. We see first-hand the necessity of advocating for vulnerable groups. They’re silencing us.

Feel like I’m going insane with the revisionist history that Charlie Kirk fostered open debate. He chilled speech and his targeting of professors for wrongthink led to threats, harassment, and being forced out of their jobs. His legacy is chilling speech right now, about him

This is political violence and there is no way this individual caused more harm than one Charlie Kirk

Just thinking about how the right made up an entirely fictional left wing character that resulted in so many bomb threats and the like and nobody will face consequences. But people on the left who accurately clocked the victim’s life work lost jobs.

If enough of us beilive it will that make it exist???? Like a tulpa?? ??? #ishedead

Yall if trump is dead you *gotta* watch 2037 and google "dark enlightement" to understand the bullshit that vance is gonna try to do #istrumpdead

There are a million problems with llm's but they need to be immediatly dissalowed from fufilling any prompts which could lead to loss of life, and in certain cases health services should be notified

That's why most people who run for office should never be voted for. The bar is on the floor. In hell. "Support the universality of human rights" is that bar. If some inhuman piece of shit cannot jump over THAT they should not be *allowed* to run for office, let alone get even a single vote.

Newsom is spying on everyone and is selling people out to Palantir's surveillance theintercept.com/2021/01/30/l...

You’re telling me this guy is not a more desirable guy to promote than Gavin Newsom

Absolutely. Because the purpose of a system is what it consistently does, not what it says in interviews that it wants to. And it has always been about stripping the government for parts.

Fuckkkkkk this one is my ozzy yall. No hate to ozzy but Tom was my boyyy

fun facts: * fewer than half of crimes that occur in the US are reported * of those reported, fewer than half are solved * about 90% of homicides used to be solved, now it's closer to 50% * crime solving rates overall have declined dramatically * police budgets tripled over the past 40 years

We were really so close to tech based immortality and they threw it all away to let the planet die cause the system of taking shit and passing it up the pyramid scheme won, and instead the "be kind, help your fellow man" is thought of as the evil world view

LETS FUCKING GOOOOOO

Like actually help, its repeating itself

I feel like the progress toward anarchism is so slow because after someone started creating power structures and up until now its always been easier to recruit less powerful people to fight for the powerful than it has been to recruit powerful people tp fight for those with less power

So if I understand best practices for No Kings correctly from social media, when the cops charge with horses or start throwing bombs at us we should immediately lie down flat on the ground and try to take a li’l nap?

The friend of the sister of one of my best friends is that girl who took danny devito to highschool prom and then he took a cardboard cut out of her to always sunny. Biggest celeb interaction is i knew this guy en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_R...

1944, reporting my local partisan group to the ss because theyre doing violence against the fascists, and the only way to resist is by sitting down and letting the cops arrest you

Watvhing evangelion for first time, why does it feel like it has a fetish for police states, child soldiers and impoliteness

When did Jd and trump switch to yellow ties, i thought their whole thing was always wearing red ?

Whats up with people wearing their baseball caps on their forhead it makes me violent

If you are freaking out, engage with trusted groups like @detentionwatchnetwork.org. Allow them offer some guidance about what you can do and how you can help.

I guess I shouldn't have expected them to be subtle about it

bosses are thieves, money is fake, that's why i stay clocked in for my break

As an Indian, as someone who lived in Egypt, and who has, modestly, remained committed to my politics despite that, here are my rules for living under fascist regimes: 1) Focus on organizational structure. 1/
