We just want to say—we’re sorry. We know how emotionally exhausting all of this is, and we truly understand. But you’re not alone. We’re in this together.

This WaPo piece has something valuable inside: the names of some of the grownups running DOGE behind the scenes. The Incels are a distraction.

These people are real. It'd be helpful for people in the agencies to ID anyone from DOGE for...reasons.

People are frozen because fighting this seems like an impossible task. There’s so much happening so fast. But you don’t have to fight it all at once. Small acts of disobedience all over adds up to large scale resistance. Pick one thing you can do, and do it. Cause friction, as AOC says.

You definitely have radicalism in the military. But I’m talking currently in the service. We’ve all been lied to about American idealism, some of us are just “woke” enough to acknowledge it.

So do we have enough people serving in the military that give a shit about their oath to protect the constitution from threats, foreign AND domestic, to stand up? Or have most of them been brainwashed? Serious question.

Yep. Nazis got a lot of that research from us. Obviously we don’t teach that here…well, I do.

Of course. I teach Mexican American Studies…we literally talked about the US Eugenics program and forced sterilizations a month ago. Wait ‘til I show them this…

The Supreme Court Ruling That Led To 70,000 Forced Sterilizations In the first half of the 20th century, American eugenicists used forced sterilization to "breed out" traits they considered undesirable. Adam Cohen tells the story in his new book, Imbeciles.

US was doing this before the Nazis…

Stop praising Mini Elonia telling the orange turd to stfu. That little fuck is being taught he can do whatever the fuck he wants and he’ll inherit all that money to back it, oligarch in the making.

What radicalized me? Nothing. I was taught to be kind and empathetic towards others because what happens to others, whether it affects
me personally, affects society as a whole.

The real question is, what caused my activism?

1. Being a teacher
2. Learning truthful history

I never ceases to amaze me how so many of us see what’s happening…the WORLD sees what’s happening and are literally telling us, and still these cult members are projecting calling the rest of us corrupt. Holy fuck.

Also, this is why ethnic studies is soooooo crucial. We have more in common than we have differences. Go back to my initial post about rich white elites using division as their ultimate power.

themselves don’t know their own history. We’ve been constantly told we would be accepted as long as we Americanized, be white passing, and for some reason we believed, and continue to believe it. The Spanish Casta System split us by color and created colorism that persists in the Latino community.

I’m not going to say that Mexican Americans have had the exact same experiences and Black Americans, but to sit and say we haven’t dealt with lynchings, eugenics, forced sterilizations, and mass deportations goes to show people don’t know our history. Difference is, Mexican Americans… 1/2

Hundreds of dancers and participants in this half time show and they can’t manage to feature one single White person? This is pathetic.

What most fail to recognize is that the wealthy white elites have done an amazing job dividing the people who would otherwise rise together…they’ve made minorities dislike each other and convinced poor whites that minorities and immigrants are the reasons they’re poor. Division is their power.
