Procedural liberalism on display. We support the murder of innocents, the immoral and demonic violence, but the President didn't fill out the right paperwork. The same logic that calls for higher police training budgets and more diversity among prison guards. Polishing the bars of the cage.

Essential reading. "We in the U.S. need to reckon with the fact that so much of our state wealth, capacity, and technology goes toward burying children in rubble."

Call me a raving radical but I literally do not care whether your imperialist massacre of children is “constitutional” or not.

The only thing it feels worthwhile for me to say right now is pay attention to whether your feelings & the information you’re absorbing are paralyzing you or prompting you to meaningful action, whatever that is. Paralysis helps no one but the enemy.

We're all trapped in the twisted reality of a few because they lack the imagination to see other people as human. That's literally it.

no war no borders no cops no prisons no to all of this shit

indiscriminately bombing Iran is not a distraction of the Epstein files, it is a validation of their significance as more than a sex pest hunt. this is what elite impunity for morons looks like. a school turned to rubble on a whim.

this is obviously an extreme one but man I can't even count the number of times I've woken up to some horrific breaking news this year

Reminder that we're not doing this because Israel is making us. We're doing this because Israel IS us, and who we are is imperialists with an economy based on death for profit.

What is AI good for? They're not investing billions in it just so you don't have to write your own emails and your kids never learn to draw. If you want to understand why AI is important to them, look at Gaza. In cheerful corporate lingo, they are preparing massacres on an unimaginable scale.

In San Diego, DHS police arbitrarily change rules overnight to cite court watchers: The rule change "meant they could no longer stand in hallways to document immigration arrests or support those with hearings & appointments in the building." [Reporting: @bgirledukate.bsky.social]

Omg no, you’re not going to make Anthropic into “resistance tech.” Nope nope nope

You do not, under any circumstances, gotta hand it to Anthropic.

H.R. 7661 is a national book banning bill which seeks to remove any book that "involves gender dysphoria or transgenderism" from all public schools in the US. This would ban all my books, & any other book with trans themes, from public schools. PLEASE call your House Reps & say: NO ON H.R. 7661!

"State policies in Alaska that challenge subsistence rights favor commercial industries over the Indigenous peoples who have lived on and protected the land since time immemorial. Climate change only compounds those bureaucratic barrier."

More than a decade after a federal judge ruled that the New York Police Department’s stop-and-frisk practices violated the Constitution, the agency is still not following the law according to a new report by a court-appointed monitor. www.thecity.nyc/2026/02/26/n...

unfortunately, there is a well-established pattern of police releasing people from custody who die within a few days from exposure, homicide, being hit by a car walking home, or an overdose.

"abolish ice" does in fact require defunding the police because they are the same system causing harm. www.washingtonpost.com/immigration/...

Premature death at the hands of armed agents of the state is merely a hazard of being Black in America. It’s not enough to “abolish ICE”; we have to abolish the police force and replace it with a radically different form of public safety.

One thing you might try to tell yourself to recenter your feelings each day is, "How can I be a good ancestor?" You may not live to see it, but there will be future generations, and they will have given anything to fight these bastards here and now like you have the opportunity to.

Psst! *Leans in* As soon as you say bad people shouldn't get legal representation, the government will say everyone who needs legal representation is a bad person. (They're already doing it, in fact, and some of you are falling for it.)

This this this People followed the law, now they're changing the law in an arbitrary way to harm people for no reason other than they're hate filled assholes and they did it without any period to comply It's wrong for every reason

If you have the means, please donate to the Trans Continental Pipeline right now. They are a Colorado based org that helps trans people relocate and they are overwhelmed with requests. Colorado borders Kansas, and TCP has the infrastructure to help get people out. tcpipeline.org

The local police taser and beat the shit out of a blind man who doesn't speak English and then ICE gets him and later drops him off at a random coffee shop to fend for himself without altering anyone and then the blind refugee dies. It all started with local police being assholes.

Let me say this: There's a fairly high chance that a court will take a look at this and stay the law and you will forget about the fact that the Kansas Legislature tried to criminalize nearly every trans person in the state. That will be a mistake.

The coinage “administrative violence” emerged from within trans studies for a reason. In doing this, Kansas does usefully get rid of the pretense that “proper” legal identification should reflect how a person looks, which undermines the logical justification for photos on ID in the first place

Very much not the point but listing sex at birth on a document meant to identify you right now is utterly useless from a security standpoint. but of course this is about cruelty and forced outing of queer private lives.

Idk who needs to hear this, but if your government requires your dead name or assigned gender at birth on your documents it has nothing to do with you detransitioning or who you are as a person. It doesn't change you, it just makes your government wrong.

Oh hey, this sounds familiar encyclopedia.ushmm.org/content/en/t...

"Sure a thing happened, but what if a different thing I just made up happened instead? You ever think about THAT?!" -the entire basis of most right wing propaganda. They just take that, add racism or transphobia or whatever vile shit they're feeling that day and press send. Then they kill people.

Just to be clear: They're seeking prosecution for the folks throwing snowballs. They want them convicted of crimes. What they're saying is, "If we don't arrest people for NOT committing crimes, the next thing you know we'll have to arrest people for ACTUAL crimes." To which I say, "Fuck off."

"In [the] absence of peer-reviewed studies on matters beyond surgery and hormones...many clinicians are unable to answer trans people’s basic questions...use that uncertainty as a reason to withhold care. In other words, doctors punish their trans patients for the legacy of institutional neglect."

A Juneau man stopped this week by police for driving with a missing headlight is expected to be turned over to federal immigration officials as soon as Friday, according to officials and court records. www.juneauindependent.com/post/man-arr...

More of this please

Apparently you can just record death threats to American activists everywhere if you’re rich enough and white enough. White people are way too obsessed with recording their own crimes. Stop. Ahh

3 ways to help Sonia Espinoza Arriaga & her family: 1.) vigil in Anchorage Mon 5 - 6 pm at St. John's church on O'Malley 2.) Mtg. in Soldotna Fri 6 pm at a church -- DM me for location 3.) Donate to this (verified, from reputable source) fund to bring them home: www.gofundme.com/f/help-sonia...

Today at the Capitol in Juneau, protesters condemned this arrest + detention of children. Inside, lawmakers questioned US Sen. Dan Sullivan at his annual address about the incidenr, and his position on ICE operations, and he responded he hadn't heard about it.

Shit like this is why it drives me batty when people fawn over "progressive" mayors like Mamdani or Michelle Wu. They may put on a good act, but they're still willing to use state violence against some of the most vulnerable and marginalized people in society. The whole system is the problem.

I hope New Yorkers will challenge Mamdani about this. Too often, people feel they need to be absolutely for or against a politician — ignoring their missteps or throwing them out with the bathwater. You can like and/or believe in someone and still challenge them to deliver on their promises.

The left is excited about underwater robots that livestream video feeds of octopus nurseries from the deep Gulf of Mexico. The right is excited about summarizing a five word e-mail, incorrectly.

FPF's @seth-stern.bsky.social also wrote for @theintercept.com about how this "guilt by literature" case about anarchist zines will ultimately impact the press.

This is gutting. This Kenai Peninsula family was broken up, this kindergartener detained. I hope this young child can be kept out of the baby concentration camps downstates, camps which should all be closed ASAP. And if you’re running for office & not standing up for kids like this, shame on you.

Yesterday, I joined some comrades at a local tea spot to chat about community organizing strategies & got to talk to them about the plans for expanding @redcurrentdistro.com into a brick & mortar infoshop - something Alaska has never really had. #alaskasky truthout.org/articles/the...

Q: “What are you in here for? Murder? Robbery?" A: “Worse, possession of zines" “Sanchez Estrada is facing up to 20 years behind bars for allegedly moving a box of anarchist zines from his parents’ house to another residence"

Rev. Jesse Jackson's "I *am* somebody..." remains one of the all-time great pieces of 20th century rhetoric / agitprop And he could deliver it at a Black separatist meeting, the Democratic National Convention, or on god-blessed Sesame Street (see below 🥹) RIP to the Voice of the Voiceless

while the rest of the country celebrates presidents’ day, in alaska we are celebrating ELIZABETH PERATROVICH DAY 🎉… complete with parades, re-enactments, and banquets elizabeth, a native american woman, was essential in alaska passing the united states’ first anti-discrimination legislation in 1945

ICE killed a teacher in Georgia today when they chose to chase a man who posed no danger and had no criminal history.

Quick math: Elon Musk has given away .06% of his net worth. Less than one tenth of 1%. The median net worth in the US is about $124,041. If someone of that net worth gave away the same percentage as Elon Musk we would be talking about $79.51. Over a lifetime. You don't hate billionaires enough.
