But I’m an extremist because I think we should be nice to people, even if they were born somewhere else

Talking about "doing the work" is not doing any work.

jason would donate to your gofundme—there's no doubt in my mind. let's help them out during a scary and uncertain time.

The obvious Joe Rad alt on the other site being upset that the campaigns challenging Frey aren't being mean to one another is a prime example of why we should rank Jazz Hampton, Omar Fateh and DeWayne Davis on our ballots starting tomorrow through November 4th. We don't need that negativity.

This is the biggest attack on free speech since the McCarthy era but it also has significantly less popular consensus behind it than the second Red Scare. It's being done on behalf of a minority faction led by the most unpopular president in modern history. Organizing against this can win.

If the only thing you can call people to do in response to the current moment is a rally a month away or signing an online petition - you need to broaden your horizons and get in community with more people doing more work at different scales and levels. A couple quick and easy ideas below ⬇️

If any political group is willing to sacrifice LGBTQIA folks to get ahead they will sacrifice anyone, and I will not support them.

I am STRONGLY of the opinion this year that people should pick their favorite ASAP and get out there and volunteer/donate/put up a yard sign.

Before he was a Senator, a candidate for President, and our greatest champion in the fight against oligarchy, Bernie Sanders was the four-term Mayor of Burlington, VT. I sat down with Bernie in Astoria to talk about the lessons he learned—and the work ahead.

I love and support my transgender and Somali-American friends and neighbors. If you wanna go after then, you're gonna have to go through me.

There was a meeting for the SD62 DFL tonight! Congrats to @dexanderson.com on being elected O&I Officer, and congrats to Dex and @meghscase.bsky.social for being elected SCC Alternates! Also, we're looking forward to our fall picnic on October 4! RSVP here: mobilize.us/s/vjmPgG

They made their voices heard via available and supposedly acceptable methods, with a clear goal of influencing the platform, again, like we’ve been told we are supposed to, and they’ve been shit on for a year for being right.

It is pretty funny that Uncommitted was pretty much exactly what establishmentarian-inclined liberals purport to prefer (intra-partisan organizing undergirded by the explicit premise of party loyalty) and they hated it anyway

What if I threw away the REMAINS of your CHILD - would it mess your life up?

The Mayor has failed to implement the Emergency Housing Vouchers program meant to provide housing and wraparound services for 50 individuals/ 50 families experiencing chronic unsheltered homelessness. He even proposed cutting the program entirely next year. It could have helped. 💔

If you are trying to find an easy and impactful action to take in this current moment: send a thank you note to a someone who is doing work that is important to you. They are legitimately appreciated and sustaining in challenging times.

🏳️‍⚧️ Letter update! 🏳️‍⚧️ We just emailed the letter and additional evidence to @dfl.org Chair Richard Carlbom. A few folks have a meeting with him this afternoon to share their experiences & request accountability in person. We currently have 1,285 total signatures! 🎉💜 1/4

This may explain why there’s an aggressive response to people who merely post Kirk’s own words. It threatens the existence of the alternate Kirk - the motivational speaker that had been marketed to young kids and white Christian groups through selective quotation & clips.

Members of the feminist caucus who were misgendering people in the meeting likely did so because they know their friends are the ones who run the code of conduct committee so they can do whatever they want without repercussions. One more reason that committee needs to be disbanded.

Reminds me when I saw Martha Dimick’s name pop up among the Feminist Caucus misgendering faction that she once referred to us new Senior Caucus members as “infiltrators.” It’s all about keeping the party clubs small. We eventually won leadership and increased the tent size.

We broke 1,000 signatures!! 🎉😭 You all are amazing!! We especially want to thank the elected officials and candidates who have signed on. We know this is a political risk for you and it means so much. If you want to join this list of impressive folks, you have until end of day today! 😊

y'all this is at 850. I'm confident we can get to 1000 before Monday (when I will be bringing it to the state chair).

People really do not understand the level of manipulation going on right now and how much of that is trying to amplify and push towards open kinetic conflict both in the United States and across Europe right now.

We can get to 1000. Please continue to share this to show the DFL that we mean MN is a trans refuge state.

In my quest to take and post more photos, here is me and my dear friend @kollontaiist.bsky.social at Palmer's last week listening to Cornbread Harris and his band.

Anyway this is toxic on multiple levels. It's toxic to be unwelcoming and hostile towards new people, it's toxic to treat a political caucus as your private club, and it's completely unacceptable to misgender people with the goal of creating a sufficiently hostile environment that they just leave.

The letter signatories are manually added (security procedure to prevent trolls) and the people doing that are going to sleep, so if you sign tonight and your name doesn't appear right away, that's why. End of Day 1 count is 460+.

Transphobia has no place anywhere, especially within the party that passed the first trans refuge law in the United States. Please sign the letter linked below to let State DFL leadership know that transphobia will not be tolerated within our party! docs.google.com/forms/d/1D9m...

Okay this is getting out of hand. No one - no one - should be the target of political violence. But Charlie’s “work” was spreading hate and division. No one should be continuing his work. Should we engage in spirited discourse, across ideology? Sure, great. But that was not Kirk’s work.

I hope our @dfl.org leadership takes seriously the experiences of trans, nonbinary, and two-spirit voters in this state. We have worked hard to build a trans-inclusive Minnesota. Our community growing deep roots here. To see our community dismissed and disregarded in this way is unacceptable.

I’m publicly calling on the @dfl.org to issue a public statement condemning what just happened at the DFL Feminist Caucus meeting. I’m sorry you were forced to experience this horrendous behavior @dexanderson.com.

My statement on tonight's DFL Feminist Caucus Annual Meeting. This statement is being emailed to the Feminist Caucus Chair, Alicia Gibson, and to the State DFL Chair, Richard Carlbom. This caucus should be ashamed of itself.

Sam Doten makes the point of order that the chair can't unilaterally cancel speeches. They also call attention to the fact that saying your pronouns isn't sufficient to declare your gender. His point of order is not ruled upon.

are you a trans person who has decided against participating in the DFL or attending DFL events due to fear of transphobia? if so please DM me your story or reply here!

refusing to use they/them for you but using it for a trans woman is pretty irrefutably deliberate harassment

I'll release something official later, but I'll be pursuing the repeated and at this point malicious misgendering issue within the feminist caucus with the party leadership.

Dex got misgendered again and is now speaking on their run and calling it out. The misgendering is a systemic problem with the caucus. The culture and leadership need to change. Thank you Dex. Follow @dexanderson.com

I think 5 hours and 47 minutes is gonna be very close to the final count.

After this meeting, no matter what happens, we need to get together a group of better folks to lead this caucus. The current leadership is mismanaging this meeting and this caucus, and their repeated misgendering of trans folks sickens me. The DFL Feminist Caucus should be better than this.

Everyone keeps misgendering Dex Anderson, who uses they/them pronouns. This is not something that should happen in a Feminist Caucus. We need leadership changes. Anyways, Dex is informing us that people can react multiple times, making Zoom reactions unsuitable for voice votes.

Sam Doten is now speaking and informing the caucus that a motion to accept a slate is out of order under DFL, DNC, and Robert's rules.

The MN DFL Feminist Caucus Annual Meeting is tonight! I'll be attending, posting throughout in this thread, and also running for a Director-At-Large position!

The DFL has the opportunity to differentiate itself from the GOP by living up to its own platform. This involves stern opposition to the transphobia and racism that has been popping up in campaigns in 2025. That simply cannot be allowed.
