I'm not one to wave an American flag around because I'm reflexively against jingoism, nationalism, etc. But seeing a billionaire hit a Nazi salute in front of the US presidential seal? Yeah, not in my country you friendless freak.

As @aoc.bsky.social says: "In this country, we hate Nazis."

It is so vital that we as experienced organizers/community workers/theorists continue to push and center education in our movement. We have to be actively learning and unlearning and it IS an active process. You cannot passively learn. You must apply it as praxis and thought beyond comprehension.

It’s fun trying to find that line between β€œI need to remain vigilant of the horrors afoot” and also β€œoh no my heart is racing and my jaw is making weird creaky sounds and I can taste pennies.”

I believe the general internet tradition on these kinds of things is well known.

How to Keep Tabs on ICE Agents Who May Be Surveilling Your Neighborhood Here’s a step-by-step guide.

This is a great piece.

Opinion | Libraries can help end the culture wars. That’s why they’re under fire. Nothing threatens authoritarianism like a free, quiet place to absorb a full range of information.

We are about to enter an era of extreme and dangerous culture war in the United States. How do we protect our communities and work toward a cultural ceasefire? In this piece I wrote a couple months ago, I offer one possible path. wapo.st/40q1BDn

I can confidently say that I have never been so excited that I lost control of my arms and they Seig Heil-ed. But maybe I’m just built different.

Panel 1: Mark Zuckerberg stands on the stage at a Meta all-hands meeting, wearing a little chain and a shirt that says "Cool Dude." "I think our company could use more Masculine Energy," he says into a mic. In the crowd, an employee raises their hand. "Excuse me, Mr. Zuckerberg," the person asks. Panel 2: The person stands up, asking, "By "Masculine Energy," do you mean a mature definition where men in power use their relative strength to protect and uplift those less privileged?" Panel 3: The person continues, "…or a more childish definition where men in power are free to be aggressive and harm others without being held accountable?" Panel 4: Zuck stands silent for a beat. Panel 5: "You're all fired," he says.

Biden told us nothing would fundamentally change and nothing has. Not then and not now.

All capitalists become fascists.

We've lived in their world for a long time and this isn't the first time they've gone mask off.

Stop giving them the energy. Put it into your communities.

Just have to say that the $Trump meme coin is a gift to all of us who are not fans of his.

It’s just a matter of time until a lot of people lose money from this.

I’m a crypto fan. This is not crypto any more than Madoff was just buying and selling shares of stock
