Call me crazy but maybe if a military and government spend two years nonstop killing children and screaming "this is for all Jews, all Jews support this" at the top of their lungs, people might believe them and do awful things to Jews as a result, and that's yet another reason why genocide is bad

The next time someone asks me "but how is that possible? Isn't that illegal?" I'm going to start printing "illegal does not mean impossible" bumper stickers.

Laws are nothing but words on paper until they're enforced equally & without loopholes. Show me any law that this has been done with. Poor & marginalized people are forced to follow laws, have bastardized versions of those laws used against us, & can't afford to use laws to protect ourselves.

Neither side of the US political mobius strip will ever save us. They're ALL corrupted. Even if they're not doing harm, they're glad the harm is happening. Class consciousness is how we fix the damage all lawmakers have done for generations. Us pawns need to throw their gameboard out the window!

@lucyrehm.bsky.social See this incredible thread, which includes how these abuses are existing in MN. This is absolutely relevant to the HF2381 MHRC Bill of Rights you're co-authoring! Sheryl is an incredible IL lawyer who knows this stuff far better than most.

A couple of years ago, a client of mine was attacked in their apartment by an abusive partner. The police were called. Charges were pressed against the abusive partner, who later pleaded guilty. The landlord filed an eviction action against Client for *allowing* a crime to occur in their unit. 1/

Studies came out in 2020-21 showing people w/ glasses were less likely to get covid. Telling most people, even pharmacists & doctors, this leads to them saying "so it enters the eyes not the lungs." 🤦‍♀️ If you don't wear your mask correctly your glasses fog up! Critical thinking skills matter.

ADA: society can deem anyone disabled even w/o a disability www.ada.gov/resources/di... SCOTUS: disabled excluded from Equal Protections Clause of 14th Amend www.abajournal.com/news/article... Fascists in both parties never challenged this so they could take rights from others, climbing the caste.

Here are the first vaccine recommendations issued by the West Coast Health Alliance, which includes California, Washington, Oregon, and Hawaii:

Can't go into details but I have spent the day listening to what is currently happening to immigrants, Muslims, Black women, and trans people in the blue state of Illinois. People are being doxxed, fired, and threatened with death. For existing. It's bad.

FYI: If you still want to watch media paramount makes w/o giving them profits GO TO YOUR LOCAL LIBRARY. Many series are on DVD w/i a year & your library either can buy it (buy once for hundreds+ to watch for free) or they can order it from another library! Support your library, not hate for profit.

My memoir comes out on June 3, just TWO WEEKS from now!! There's still time to pre-order or enter to win your very own FREE signed copy! Details below!

*A marginalized person on the left recounts a thing they experienced in a leftist space that shows a needed area of growth* Online Leftists: This didn't happen because no real leftist would do that and if it did happen it was liberals who did it, not leftists

So let me get this straight. We can't oppose genocide or support immigrants or defend trans people because that's "purity politics" but it's okay to use slurs and be ableist or racist or transphobic because that's "fighting back" against Republicans? Help me understand. (That's rhetorical.)

If we're going to be damned, let's be damned for who and what we really are. Let's be loud and proud and unapologetic, right until whatever end comes, whenever it comes. They can never break our spirit unless we let them.

Periodic reminder that ICE administrative warrants do NOT give ICE (or anyone else) legal authority to enter your home (or anywhere not open to the public) without your consent. Unless law enforcement has a JUDICIAL WARRANT, signed by a judge, they do not have a legal right to nonconsensual entry.

The Office of Long COVID Research and Practice will close as soon as this week, according to an internal HHS email obtained by Inside Medicine. This is the opposite of what you would do if you were genuinely interested in finding treatments for chronic diseases, as RFK claims.

Remember in 2023 when Very Serious People told me Israel would never bomb a hospital? Anyway, once again tonight Israel bombed a hospital. www.huffpost.com/entry/palest...

Did you know Netanyahu was due in court today for his corruption trial? It was postponed because to the resumption of the war. How many children have to die to keep one man out of prison?

No I will not debate you on Palestine. It's a genocide. The UN, the Special Rapporteur, OxFam, Human Rights Watch, Amnesty International, Doctors Without Borders, multiple US state department officials, the Lemkin Institute, and B'Tselem all say it's a genocide. I don't debate flat earthers either.

This is getting ridiculous. Stop looking for a savior. You know who needs to stop this? YOU. All of us. The people who give a shit in this country. Anonymous is still leaking info and taking action. We never stopped. It’s not enough. People aren’t listening. It’s up to all of us.

Everything is tied back to disability. When people are dehumanized, many do what they can to tie it to disability somehow and make it so that they don't get treated with decency. "That person is mentally ill." "They are lazy." "They're stupid." By fighting ableism, you're fighting dehumanization.

Keep in mind when you talk about marriage equality that until disabled people can get married without losing access to benefits, marriage equality doesn't exist.

Anyone pro #Palestine in #Minneapolis up for quietly staring down a raging zionist? I sadly matched with this guy on a dating app: www.threads.net/@t33b0n35 Supposed to meet at 7 pm tonight 3/13 in the North Loop. I don't want to be a coward hypocrite. I want to stand up for my anti-hate ideals.

A lot of people are really saying there's a "but Hamas" exception TO THE FREAKING CONSTITUTION and honestly if you're saying that, you don't want rights, you want comfort

The so-called 'political spectrum' is a mobius strip. The supposedly opposing sides aren't actually all that opposed nor all that far apart on many issues. This is the narcissistic capitalist caste system at play. Note: go to Mehdi Hasan's quote-post to see the video this is about.

I’ll go even further and say the Dems ALREADY DID sell out trans people WHEN they sold out the Palestinians. Same for women, black people, the disabled, and every other vulnerable marginalized group you can think of. The Dems endangered them all by backing genocide in an election year.

resharing with alt text. truly terrifying shit in addition to my fear, I feel fury both at the perpetrators and all the facilitators who greased the wheels

Consent manufacturing machine go brrrrrr

For years, when I asked my fellow white Americans why the US has the largest carceral apparatus in the world by a wide margin, with 4% of the world's population and 22 percent of the world's prisoners, with mass incarceration mostly impacting communities of color,

Quoting only to reiterate that the ICJ, ICC, Amnesty International, B'Tslem, Lemkin Institute, Human Rights Watch, United Nations, Doctors Without Borders, and multiple other organizations have all called what Israel is doing to Palestinians WITH OUR WEAPONS a genocide. Because it's a genocide.

The existence of Palestinians is not antisemitic. The existence of Palestinians is not antisemitic. The existence of Palestinians is not antisemitic. The existence of Palestinians is not antisemitic. The existence of Palestinians is not antisemitic. The existence of Palestinians is not antisemitic.

Fuck Israel and fuck Zionism. Free Palestine, from the river to the sea.

This is what disabled people mean when we say ableism doesn’t care who you are.

Marco Rubio is suspending the passport applications of trans people. Marco Rubio was confirmed by the Senate unanimously. Every Democrat voted for him.

What is happening in the West Bank is apartheid. And it is still happening. Israel has just locked down the West Bank, preventing movement between each town for Palestinians, while violent settlers roam free destroying property and inciting violence, backed by the IDF, egged on by the far-right.

people keep tagging me in fuck around and find out content like I haven’t been talking about how pandemics lead to fascism since 2020. The “find out” portion isn’t just for everyone who doesn’t consider themself a liberal—it’s for them too. Haven’t masked in 4 years? FAAFO.

Just a reminder that the International Court of Justice has found that Israel’s entire occupation of the West Bank is illegal and Israel is guilty of the crime of apartheid.

Just so we’re all clear: -Dems bend over backwards to Netanyahu’s every whim carrying through with financing a genocide, Bibi wants Trump to win and it costs Dems the election. -At the request of Netanyahu, the Tiktok Ban bill is Revived under a Dem President, closer tying it to Biden moreso

Just FYI, administrative warrants (like the ones used by ICE) are not judicial warrants (used by cops, signed by a judge). You do NOT legally have to open the door for an ICE officer with an administrative warrant *no matter what the ICE officer says.*

If you are arrested in Illinois protesting deportation actions are under the Trump administration, I can represent you pro bono. Email me at [email protected].

What would you title your memoir if you wrote it today? What's the title for your forward looking sequel? Bonus: What's the 1 sentence pitch to sell your books? Mine is: 1) Rainbow Zebra and Other Confusions 2) Second Half Leaves First Impression 3) What do you know if you know you know nothing?

SCOTUS saying that the 1A doesn't bar divestments forced by the government is undermined by their own recognition of the danger of their ruling. I know they recognize it because they say IN THE RULING ITSELF that their holding is narrow and this reasoning wouldn't apply to American companies.

The Supreme Court is upholding the TikTok ban. This sets an extremely dangerous precedent giving politicians unprecedented power to silence speech they don’t like.

Oh BTW I will still be doing BDS after the ceasefire is implemented, and I'll be doing BDS until the Occupation is over. I hope you'll join me. Free Palestine.
