Remember that in the Diary of Anne Frank the good guys were breaking the law. Just because something is legal doesn't mean it is right and because something is illegal doesn't mean it is wrong.

So apparently MAGA doesn't get that Superman is an analog for the ubermensch archetype (independent, does what they feel is best, self-actualized, creating own morality) fitting in well with his long history of being 'woke' ... or they just realized he was 'woke' all along.

It’s true. I know a US Senator who went through the TSA scanner and immediately started soliciting men for sex in the airport restroom.

A reminder that if the government can send migrants to a prison camp without any due process, it can send U.S. citizens there, too. I know because this happened to me and my family in 1942.

Dear American citizens, whatever you wish more German citizens would have done in 1933, do that now.

Idaho Senators MUST protect women, children, and transgender people by making changes to HB 264 - FastDemocracy Idaho legislators are intent on creating laws that discriminate against trans people. HB 264 would require universities, community colleges, domestic violence shelters, and correctional facilities to ...

UPDATE: HB 264, the "bathroom bounty" bill, will be voted on by the Idaho Senate this week. There's still time to contact your senator and tell them: VOTE NO.

If you wanted to cut waste, fraud, and abuse, you would empower the inspectors general.

If you wanted more waste, fraud, and abuse, you would fire them.

Elon only started hanging out with him in public after the healthcare CEO shooting. The child’s mother is still fighting for custody and has requested that he not be displayed in public. That kid is being used by Elon as both of shield and a way to stick it to his ex.

We were promised transparencyβ€”they classified everything.

We were promised efficiencyβ€”they put everything under the control of one man.

We were promised less bureaucracyβ€”they privatized it.

This is the most corrupt and lawless administration in American history.

Diversity is a fact: All kinds of people exist.

Equity is a goal: All kinds of people deserve a chance at success.

Inclusion is how we get to equity. By including them, they can achieve success.

It's that simple.

Do you feel exhausted? Are you tired?

Then rest. Recover. Realise that this is exactly what they want.

Bombard decent good people with hate, evil, corruption and lies. Whilst masquerading as moral authority β€œChristians” of course.

Realise what they are doing. Then adapt.

Adaptation is the key

I remember teaching version of this back in the 80's. Glad to see its still being taught today but wish it was in the context of a history lesson.

Stills from X-Men: The Last Stand movie where a mutant says "Nobody's talking about extermination!"    Magneto replies "No one every talks about it.  They just do it. And you go on with your lives. Ignoring the signs all around you.  And then one day, when they air is still and the night has fallen, they come for you."

If you’re feeling down beaten and hopeless please reach out to someone. Our strength is in our community. We’ve seen dark days, much darker, and always our mutual aid networks helped us survive. And we always survive. We have to. We’re queer.

Kamala Harris: NO NEW TAXES on anyone earning under $400,000.

Trump: HIGHER TAXES on everyone earning under $360,000.

See the difference? πŸ‘€
