This post has been stuck in my head since I saw it two days ago, and I think it's on to something. The cultural power of "jovial fat white ethnic goofy dad" (and similar types of guy) going "ah, they're alright, let 'em do their thing" and showing up with a genuine smile shouldn't be underestimated.

Donald Trump and Republicans are pushing illegal maps that violate the Voting Rights Act.

Instead, Congress should pass fair, independent maps nationwide. Without that, Democratic states must consider all the options to protect our constitutional republic.

They are starting to groom us now for women losing the right to vote. Itโ€™s all in P2025. I know youโ€™re probably saying, โ€œthat wonโ€™t happenโ€ and thatโ€™s one of the most dangerous responses. Please know, it CAN & from the looks of it, WILL.

Are you ready to rise up in REVOLUTION yet?? I AM.

Dear 53% White Women,

As I understand it, you want America to be great again. This is your right, but are you willing to give up credit cards in your name? Your own bank account? Become completely legally subservient to your husband, to include getting your ass whipped when you get out of line?

Itโ€™s sad that people will stand their ground no matter who stands with them. Case in point, if youโ€™re not a fascist and you see fascists standing with you, you need to take a moment and ask yourself why? What is it about you that is supporting a fascist position? Not enough people do that today.

What happens if you donโ€™t do background checks or training for thousands of people and you give them all total authority?

ICE has been caught looting and destroying property at Pittsburgh restaurants. They even tried to break into the safes. They loaded food, supplies and equipment into vehicles

@datingafeminist

If school girls must cover their bra straps b/c they are "sexual," Snapping a girls bra should be considered sexual assault by the school.

It is not. This is one way we teach children that the female body is criminal and harmful, but the violation of it is not.

Abuse can begin, long before it becomes physical. They groom, condition, train you. It starts verbally, emotionally, psychologically, isolating you. controlling behavior. monitoring you.

You know what you heard. You know what you saw. You know what you found. Don't let the narcissist tell you anything different. Gaslighting is emotional, psychological / mental abuse in its ugliest form.

AlO Is it dangerous if I stay with my partner? He texted me this after exploding at me earlier today

relationship

We've been together for a few years, and it hasn't always been easy. His new obsession is accusing me of cheating, he's basically never let me have friends, so idk who I can even cheat on him with, I have to be home by 8pm every night and he's locked my phone away before, so idk what else to do to prove to him. I'm scared of how he acts, the pain and marks,but he says he's going to stop, just am starting to think maybe it's not safe anymore, I think the reason I haven't done or said anything yet is because he controls everything, the finances, what I wear, the food, he has the car...like how did my life become like this, I'm so confused and at this point I need clarity, like is he just mad and this is normal? Ever since my mom died, who was the last connection to my family, he's taken more and more and asks for more and more fr

"This is why I want to kill you," "if you don't stop withholding sex, I'll take it," girl, these are *documented threats *

This man is straight up threatening rape and murder.

Please get out. Call the cops, have family or any friends you have left nearby if you can, but get out before he decides to follow through. File a restraining order and leave his

ass.

This is why abusers want to isolate their victims, so they can't even see reality and no one to check with.
