Arguably, the next gen of aspiring GOP leaders wanting to abuse their power to systemically oppress citizens affects greater society. You won’t want to “clutch pearls“ over your party consistently wanting to oppress people by race and orientation? I would say eye-opening, but we knew that. Lol (2/2)

Republicans love comparing bad things to other bad things as a gotcha. JD Vance said Young Republicans being deeply racist homophobes in chat is not as bad a Democrat allegedly said a Republican’s kids should die. Two bad things can be bad, did you know? (1/2)

Chicago ICE agents used non-lethal weapons improperly and shot a pastor, Rev. David Black in the head. Whether they meant to shoot him or not, pepper balls shouldn’t be aimed anywhere near the top of his body. This escalation is cruel and unnecessary. #fuckice #chicago

suggesting mass murder of homeless people for simply being homeless, and that passing on live TV, and him offering a passive “apology” is astonishingly disgusting and levels of contempt you can’t make up #briankilmeade chng.it/QJ4D8fvtcd

"What'd ya pay for those things? See, if I had a buncha robot arms like that I can make breakfast, tie my shoes & pet my dog all at once." "Who the hell are you?!" "Gee, look how that one lights a cigar. Ya like cigars Doc? I enjoy em' myself. Just one more thing- uh, thats my car. Do you mind?"

Today, the UN officially designated Israel’s assault on Gaza as a genocide. As a party to the Genocide Convention, the U.S. has a legal obligation to obey our own laws, stop weapons sales to Israel, and demand a permanent ceasefire. End the genocide. Ceasefire now.

so when is the White House going to put out a statement that says “hey, we’re not giving you the green light to murder leftists and registered dems in the streets” because there are a lot of trigger-happy ppl online posting disturbing power trip gun fantasies that want to kill LGBTQ and POC 🤨

What we are seeing in Los Angeles right now with #NoKings is after several hours of a massive protest that was 100%, law enforcement—abruptly and without provocation—began firing tear gas, flash bangs and pepper balls at protesters. It was broadcast live on air. “Unrest” is on them.

This presidency is a DISGRACE. America has made a quick descent into fascism and all we were called was alarmists and snowflakes. Musk is trying to win back good will—never forgive or forget that he helped get us here, that he tried to manipulate German people into voting for a far-right gov.

Greta Thunberg and other members of the Freedom Flotilla got seized in international waters and kidnapped by Israel—currently no comms. Meanwhile in America, land of the free, reporters covering the LA ICE protests are being legitimately SHOT at by police. #thisisamerica #freepalestine #fuckice

It’s been clear that the Israeli offensive is to wipe out Palestinians. They have been bombing many schools and hospitals. Israelis have claimed they need to kill every last child to avoid them giving birth as adults. All this girl did was provide hope, and her killers will claim it was evil.

Trump proves as usual he’s a fucking moron, claiming Biden allowed his doctors to hide his cancer diagnosis during presidency because he genuinely thinks he has “Stage 9” cancer, mixing it up with his Gleason score, even though any cognitively healthy person knows there is NOT “Stage 9” cancer

The White House account continues to be increasingly embarrassing, disturbing, and sickening. No presidency should allow the White House in ANY capacity to throw immature, racist tantrums . It is not normal for the White House to act this way. Trump has normalized a SEVERE lack of dignity.

“look at all I’ve done for you, I deserve to have you. you don’t even say thank you. I’m the best friend you’ve ever had. you owe me for my graciousness. I’m always saving you from yourself, only I know what’s good for you and this is how you repay me?”

talking down to all of Greenland like an abusive partner and attempting to guilt trip the entire country with their “bond” into accepting forceful control as a show of “friendship” is insane to me, am I in the twilight zone?

Nothing felt more cold and dystopian to me than Matt Waltz saying 👊🇺🇸🔥 in a group chat about bombing people. Any Americans that think those officials both having and lying about their group chat is fine need to wake up. The rest of the world is laughing at us, screaming for us to wake up.

I’ve enjoyed seeing the evolution of how you draw the characters based on their personalities, they slowly became like their own AU 😭 Brilliant!

Introduction post! Heya, my name is Tori or Nacho (she/they)! I’m a 23-year-old freelance digital artist striving to get into character design work and potentially comics. 👽 I hope to juggle Insta and Bluesky. #artintro #meettheartist #freelance #digitalart #characterdesign

If anybody has an ArtFight, you should come find me! I also follow back, even if I may not get to a lot of characters during July artfight.net/~nachoian #artfight #ocs #originalcharacters I have mostly humans and aliens!

I, for one, am not reassured by the fact the German extreme right only got 20 percent. The acceptable number of German far-rightists is zero. The 1930s taught us that.

Character evolutions 😏 And honestly an art evolution, too #characterdesign #ocs #originalcharacters

Sketchbook page that I cleaned up/colored! I'd basically add new random doodles to it throughout the month- I figured this year I'd post a full-color page like this monthly, so here's the one for January! ✏️ 🎆

I love your art so much it’s come so far since I first discovered you 😭😭🫡

hmmmmm #ocs

Finally revamped my character Oskar for the comic I’m developing, On the Rim! I wanted him to look a little older, a little swankier, and a lot less like Rob Walker #characterdesign #digitalart #oc #originalcharacter #alien #illustration

Gulf of America is embarrassing. you forget North America isn’t just the U.S. you wax poetic about disrespecting American greatness and leave Native populations in the dust, as always. some American you are.

guy sneaks Nazi salutes into his speech, supporters insist they weren’t. guy shows up mere days later at a conference for far-right German party saying Germany needs to protect its white German heritage. it’s almost like that guy believes in Nazi ideals after all. #elonmusk #fuckelon

wow, what an unfortunate angle of the flag in front of Elon at the far-right German party’s conference

“Elon isn’t a Nazi!!!” he also said there’s too much focus on the past. I wonder why Germany focuses on the past so much. certainly not to make sure history doesn’t repeat…

don’t let Aqua Blu Kitchen & Cocktails in Toms River forget their “Proud Boys Burger” they’re trying to go back on! we hate New Jersey Nazis! #newjersey

Nazis have been way more out and proud pretty directly correlated to a new Trump presidency. other MAGAs keep denying they have anything to do with Nazis, but it seems awfully noticeable to keep happening for Trump specifically, eh?

Federally enforcing that there are two sexes equated to gender identities, never mind intersex people exist, is fascist. Violating birthright citizenship is fascist. Banning queer ppl from the military is fascist. Banning platforms for “wokeness” is fascist. Dictating birth control is fascist.
