From bolo’bolo by PM “There is no democracy for exploited, blackmailed, or economically weak people”

We understand why non-profit organizations cannot engage in the sort of effective tactics that autonomous grassroots networks can. But it is deeply irresponsible for them to try to prevent others from taking action to protect their neighbors—and worse still to frame this as concern for community.

Some nonprofit organizations have been trying to suppress the rapid response tactics that have emerged from LA, Chicago, and the Twin Cities. ICE is kidnapping hundreds of thousands of people, ruining their lives. This is not a situation in which non-profits should be suppressing effective tactics.

Trump supporters are claiming that whistles should be “considered a violent weapon,” that their use constitutes “interference” with immigration enforcement operations or even “assault.” In other words—the rapid response networks are working. The whistles are working. Let no one tell you otherwise.

Remember that @mikestabile.bsky.social myself, & many SWs, discussed the harm of age verification laws as written, and how they harm SWs, users, and undermine internet freedoms. This is all an effort to do large scale government surveillance.

From long experience with governmental excuses, this is absolutely a lie. "Legally fraught?" Lol they've got whole legal departments. They could draft and order an eviction moratorium today, then send their lawyers to back it. If they ain't doing that, they're choosing not to.

Sahar needs $5000 for Odais surgery. Its urgent as every delay makes the results more tenuous. Please give as you can gofund.me/f44936a92

“The group was formed as a sort of alliance between ultraconservative Christians and Jews to advance religiously motivated social policies, which often target the LGBTQIA+ community. … It was identified by the Southern Poverty Law Center as part of an anti-LGBTQIA+ pseudoscience network.”

The resilience from yesterday and through this entire occupation has been nothing short of incredible. ICE cannot defeat this

Things are only going to get weirder (and not just here) as the empires continue to crumble. Escalating disinformation's only going to accelerate it. Yet another reason why community and direct connection are so essential. They ground in what's actually real, what in the end outlasts every empire.

So are transphobic liberals demanding immediate obeisance to Newsom and treating voting ("no matter who!") as a ritualized sacrament for an increasingly crumbling civic cult. Demanding more love and faith in institutions as they become more openly blood-soaked and corrupt.

A certain frantic hypervigilance comes more to the fore in ways large and small. Can see it manifesting in conservatives asbolutely losing their shit about a halftime show (and, well...damn near everything else from beer to drag story times).

While said paranoia's never absent from empires (they're inherently fragile things and even the gentry running them get that on some levels) it *really* ramps up when they're clearly falling apart.

There's a particular variety of paranoia about decline that shows up in increasingly bizarre cultural ways in late empires. And the later it gets, the more desperate and strange it becomes.

This second part is particularly concerning. People are going to think this is benign and not about them until someone’s whistle printing comes up in court.

"You have to care for your community, you have to look out for your friends, your family, your found family. All of it is so important."

So when we are ridiculing the fascists that is NOT the time to ponder our collective being and finding the good in everyone

They've been torturing and abusing trans people for years now, even using us as slave labor. Note "2023"; these organizations cannot be reformed, certainly not by a party whose best idea is looking the other way.

The amateur phrenologists with CBP and ICE will put you in solitary confinement if your skull shape doesn't pass their fascistic gaze.

Abducted, tortured, and trafficked to a country she's never lived in, she's still trying to help others suffering at the hands of the Trump regime.

Cops intervene to discourage benches, footpaths, cycle lanes etc as all these encourage people interacting with one another. The more the police is involved, the less community we get, the worse the loneliness crisis becomes. www.instagram.com/reel/DSSFepR...

"prohibition in the united states" has this time lapse map that switches from folksy banjo music to ominous industrial sci-fi for the 15 seconds when alcohol was illegal nationwide

What the gentry do to food isn't the worst of their evils, but it's damn sure on the list.

If your exhibit is touted as being groundbreaking for (finally?? why finally??) recognizing women exist, you should probably be embarrassed.

There isn't a sigh hard enough for these dumbass headlines. Warriors were a SOCIAL GROUP, and later a legal classification. Gender was not relevant to whether one was part of a warrior group/family/etc. You might as well write: THIS JUST IN: WOMEN EXISTED! www.the-independent.com/asia/japan/b...

not to self plug but im linking bcz i genuinely need more people to talk about what's going on here. so many on social media get fixated on whatever the latest news cycle's on about. you can change the news cycle. don't forget what's happening here before its too late

humongous TW for the video. its all escalating here. we keep saying this. dont take your eyes off mn

Ok, now we know who one of the missing primarchs was, and why the emperor tried to erase all mention of him.

Please don't forget amid *gestures generally at all the fascism* that Trump is continuing to criminalize and target trans people for literal extermination. www.huffpost.com/entry/trump-...

After 9/11 Dems went hard into recruiting prosecutors, who now form a sizable part of their political class at all levels. Lo and behold the petty cruelty, use of "discretion" to let cops (e.g. ICE) do whatever they want and reactionary bigotry that define the profession pave the way for fascism.

Yeah I’ve seen “progressives” in other cities saying the blockades are a step too far… ICE agents drive like they’re in GTA. Even beyond the kidnapping and the murder, they‘re speeding and crashing their cars everywhere. With zero consequences.

Without naming your job, tell me something you say over and over again at work. “Well that's horrific.”

They call it “persistent presence” and it’s a technique of war they have used in other parts of the world, notoriously in Somalia, which gives a new dimension to the cruelty of doing this to cities full of Somali refugees In some cases they’re literally using the same Black Hawks even

This, in addition to it being far better done and having one the best reveals in murder movie history, is why the 1974 Murder on the Orient Express is by far the best one. Even Poirot is like "Eh, guess there's a dilemma but guy was a shit. The law's basically made up (and cops are incompetent).

Ok, now we know who one of the missing primarchs was, and why the emperor tried to erase all mention of him.

Minneapolis police are now showing up with riot cops to stop peaceful potluck protests now. All in service to protecting fascist death squads. Minneapolis police are fully pro fascist violence and against protestors

One of the things that keeps me going is how badly the worst people want everyone else to like them and how firmly they keep telling them, "No."

I’m not arguing with no account defending AI. My grandmother lives in an area being environmentally compromised currently by an ai data center. I remember the color of the lake before they built it and the sludge I see in it when I go to see her. Shut the fuck up about “the benefits of AI” forever.

We got us. Always have, always will

When you see those children kidnapped by ICE/CBP, bear in mind that thanks to Biden their DNA is being scanned and permanently added to a database of criminals. They are all marked in the system for life, the system that is *already* trying to revictimize Liam because he embarrassed it.

This library sounds amazing - I didn't even know we had such a gem right here in Cambridge. Cooperation Jackson is absolutely the right home for it. Help them relocate the books if you can!

I feel like Los Angeles is a place where people expect ICE to happen because the kidnappings have been happening to my home city for decades, so there’s less media attention to it now. and I want folks to see that in LA, Latine students are organizing major protests & the police are attacking them

Every instance of "AI democratizes the arts, you're classist and ableist and a gatekeeper for trying to stop it" is a slap in the face to the literally centuries of poor, disabled people making art on the margins and a crass lie in service of a machine that strips down and regurgitates dreams

genocide

It is honestly a foundation of the mystery genre that cops are, at best, grossly incompetent and make everything worse.

Pointed out a lot lately that trans genocide is a gentry conspiracy. Well, here's one of them.

Trans people tried to warn the world about Epstein, but no one listened. Maybe now they finally will, and turn away from anti-trans figures closely associated with one of the most horrific human traffickers in history. Read all this and more in the full article. Edited by @davidforbes.bsky.social

Richard Dawkins. Steven Pinker. Lawrence Krauss. Jonathan Haidt. Robert Trivers. Prominent atheists and scientists who have pushed anti-trans propaganda for years. They all had ties to Jeffrey Epstein. Some received huge research grants and island trips, and all of them benefited from their ties.
