ex.) So much of the efforts of the NAACP finding the cases to take to higher court on segregation took decades of work and its barely discussed.

AND exhaustive Black advocacy and appealing to the justice system and morality of America. And so much of that effort is just being hand waved away and it took a generation plus to earn.

Every vacation you took, every Disneyland trip, every dollar you earned over here, every piece of property you bought, every luxury you have been able to enjoy, safe meal you have been able to eat, access to room and board, clean water; all paid for in Black blood. You should have some respect.

Only reason literally *anyone* who is not a white male was *ever* able to walk around America & the greater white world without looking over their shoulders is because of Black Americans Since then it's largely been betrayal by everyone else & now civil rights are being eroded Y'all do something

Something a lot of people refuse to internalize in this country is that cops (at all levels) are almost always rightwing in ideology.

and elected officials

"guy with a don't tread on me flag dresses up as a nameless agent of state power and rains lethal force on someone who mildly inconvenienced him" is the last few decades of that flag wrapped in a single murder

fuck trump and all his enablers including the democrats and republicans who voted to create and fund ice

Weird to be commemorating the 250th anniversary of the Am Rev while living under a government that has a) sent armed troops to occupy cities perceived to be too rebellious, b) rendered largely irrelevant the representative branch of government, and c) claimed imperial right to rule other countries.

'Don't fight back that will give Trump an excuse to escalate!' is the most asinine dogshit take on here- the man *instigated an insurrection* because people *voted him out* No level of law abiding pacifism will placate him- he registers it as weakness, and an invitation to multiply his abuses

"Just one more budget increase and we'll get the right training I promise we're good for it just one more budget increase a few more hundred million and it'll be good I promise please you have to believe me just one more budget increase"

Laughing at all the people saying shit like we should get rid of the few bad apples in the ethnic cleansing operation

I’m sorry the decorum argument was dead ten fucking years ago when the entire republican party hitched themselves to mister “grab them by the pussy” come on

ANYONE who supports capitalism helps cause homelessness and harms the homeless. Anyone who supports capitalism harms trans people. Anyone who supports capitalism helps keep genocide going. Anyone who supports capitalism helps people like Trump attain power. The Dem party supports capitalism.

BOTH: the racist GOP don’t have to earn the votes of the primed cult of white bigots passionate for the cause AND non/lapsed voters have to be moved to act and weren’t this time- and that’s where the Dem win hides biden 2020: 81,283,501 harris 2024: 75,019,230

🏃‍♂️💨⚡️

Gavin Newsome threw homeless out of their camps and got his own hands dirty. he is also not the only one to throw Trans people under the bus

you spoke to them all?

a primary where Harris debated other Democrat contenders for the 2024 nomination??? shit i must have more long Covid symptoms lingering than i realized because i don’t think that shit happened

Harris defended the funding of the genocide “has a right to defend itself”

i spent my time on this today cuz of the gross perversion i saw of the tweet using Renee’s death as a BlueMAGA gotcha against antizionist leftists to rehash the election. ICE was funded by Biden/Harris with an increased budget my hands are clean and i don’t deny the genocide but fight for the weak

non-voters aren’t trying to keep up on all the political debates but saw short video clips, vibes, & a mountain of far-right conspiracy marinated grifters Harris campaign was juxtaposed against over a year’s footage of dead mutilated Palestinian bodies that their admin funded & she stood & defended

GERMAN PRESIDENT STEINMEIER: “.. the United States has broken with the values that it helped to establish .. “.. we have now moved beyond the stage where we can lament the lack of respect for international law or the erosion of the international order; we are far beyond that, I believe.”

The problem with asking Democrats to abolish ICE is not that they can’t so it’s pointless; it’s that they don’t want to and there are plenty of people who would rather not expose that.

common FUCK THE NEW YORK POST spotted

Anti-ICE march in lower Manhattan is moving north, destination unknown. Looks to be about a thousand people. This march does not have a permit, and used amplified sound at the rally with no issues. A notable shift from the Adams admin that directed NYPD to nitpick.

Fair, but I don't think Sinema became worse because of bullying (she just always was that) and Manchin was from WV, so what do we expect. I think if we bully people into revealing their true colors, it sets up the next election better for low engagement voters to choose differently. Ex. Fetterman

It is a BREATH OF FRESH AIR to see people able to mobilize on the drop of a hat and not get beat up by the cops because they’re not on the sidewalk or they’re using a megaphone — normal characteristics of protest the Adams admin strangled to death. Makes a massive difference. An overnight 180.

I want a bill that states clearly that the presence of a person in ICE gear (as well as the presence of any known employee or former employee of ICE in or out of gear) represents a present threat to civilian life and that civilians have qualified immunity in their response, but this is a good start.

The evidence is increasingly pointing to the probability that an ICE agent killed a woman after misreading her as a threat because he was distracted by his simultaneous effort to record her so he could upload her image to a facial recognition database.

"Quit demonstrating" is not something that a pro-democracy politician says. It's something that an authoritarian tool says.

for the good of the brand kick the charlatan “Democrats” out then Sinema’s thumbdown should have been on loop as they disowned her instead you “win” by maintaining your narrow margin in the short term at the cost of lost voter trust for longer. make it a shame for her to carry instead of the party

when i encounter zionist lies i get angry. trying to tell me I’m antisemitic. Fuck you. I just met you & i’m anti you keep Jews safe, but hurt zionist feelings every chance you get. if you think the venn diaagram of those two groups of people is a circle i’m talking about your feelings specifically

i urge all white women to leave their unrepentant conservative husbands/partners

leftists are both: to blame for Harris running a loser centrist zionist chaser caampaign and bots

This is a guy who has his dream job. And there’s only one of those positions in the world. Yet he’s still speaking out and risking reprisal. Where are 90% of the others in entertainment, music, movies etc?

not getting shot in the face by a government thug after dropping your kid off at a school is a kitchen table issue, probably the most talked about issue at kitchen tables right now honestly

expand it to apply to all cops

i can feel the lung hangover and smell the sweetness

There’s also the problem of the simultaneous domineering demands for subservience & the concurrent claim that ICE agents are traumatized whittle babies who “fear for their lives” and need to have their feelings considered. Are they big, mean, scary bullies or sensitive children? You can’t have both.

One of the (several) problems with the demand that bystanders and targeted people be immediately compliant with ICE agents is that fleeing ICE is incredibly rational. They’re violent, piggish thugs who disappear some people into horrendous gulags and shoot others in the face.

too many democrats are eager to compromise on other people’s rights too many Democrats would rather lose (again) than stand up for trans, homeless, or Palestinian people

trans rights and homeless rights and Palestinian rights are human rights issues not up for debate. if your party isn’t for those things, their moral calculus is rotten and deserving of scorn, not support in some grand status quo centrism that happens to not include you in the crosshairs

Fuck Donald Trump times infinity How many times a day do non-liberal, actually-left leftists have to bend the knee to the fuckDT altar to shut up the weird liberal “you’re hurting us by having principles and demanding Democrat leaders do too” posters? (rhetorical, exhausted) Here’s your daily FDT

i did it joe 💊 i got on new medication 👂 set up a counseling appointment 🇵🇸 got made fun of by a zionist for having finally put AuDHD in my profile after my new diagnosis 🫩 stayed up all night due to the new dose and so turned a blue maga honeypot for leftists into a follow list now to start the day

The world's richest man runs a subscription-based automated service that removes clothing from photographs of children.

they want to do insider trading, send out scam emails to raise money to give to their consultant friends, & otherwise just kinda occupy space to prevent things from changing. as far as they even have an opinion about trump hurting poor people and foreigners, it's as an excuse for more scam emails

saw a post confused about the dem leadership's response to trump, offering them genuine advice and pointers, and it's just heartbreaking. krusty shouting advice to the washington generals. they don't wanna do it
