Trump DOJ is looking at ways to ban transgender Americans from owning guns, sources say | CNN Politics Senior Justice Department officials are weighing proposals to limit transgender people’s right to possess firearms, according to two officials familiar with the internal discussions.

Can we please understand what is happening? He is disarming us as a prelude to our extermination. And making us mentally unfit to own firearms as a matter of law will exclude us from all manner of legal rights.

That's bc it was rolled out like a "technological border wall," along poor and often black neighborhoods, and serves to protect capital. People like private property more than they like actual privacy or autonomy, which they think are the same things. Bought and sold.

I mean, the last two years have really shown legacy media's ass. Those in power control the narratives, which is more important than journalistic principles (which are oft abandoned in favor of the status quo). You're teaching them what it should be, un-coopted. Fuck the "field."

So I’m supposed to look my students in the eye this semester and tell them that hard work, diligence, even adherence to basic journalistic principles is the right way in this field

We have a chance to refuse the oligarchs, false prophets, overlords, Imperials, technocrats, and theocratic monsters who have spent centuries if not more running this planet and the lives of those who live upon it into the fucking ground. & not only do we have a chance, we have a DUTY to the future.

I have been saying -- we need to shift our concept of "abberant" behavior away from neurodiverse people, depression and trauma to antisocial & narcissistic behavior and racist/bigoted/hateful beliefs. They're the ones who need institutional help, who are a danger to society.

Many countries have suspended shipping to the US altogether. You can't buy goods from them. They are waiting to see what will happen within the next few days/weeks and this is the only way to stop this mess. They'll lose so much money from lack of free trading.

The problem is that the (white) left doesn't know what community care is, and they incessantly replicate colonial and capitalist structures that alienate, neglect and use the most marginalized before discarding them all the same. White/NonProf left organizing is mostly just another kind of churn.

United in grief over their sons, either killed or jailed by Israel, these Palestinian mothers formed a "league" to support one another. But as Israel's violence expands, and new mothers join their league, the group is finding it harder to operate.

The leftist community in the US is so fragmented and haunted by capitalism and colonial ideology that I have zero hope or expectation of experiencing the kind of love and care that I dream of and fight for. All I can do is just keep fighting so maybe the kids might know it.
