I love and hate this at the exact same time.

Not to mention how ableist it is to assume everyone can hold and read a physical book. These are not things we should be gatekeeping. Just consume stories - it makes us more curious and empathetic (that’s also exactly why they’re banning books).

This part. We got money for war, we got money to give tax breaks for billionaires yet …

Whole thread is good but especially this - yes there are a lot of maga - there also are a lot of folks who’ve been lied to, disenfranchised, and gerrymandered illegally. We don’t help them fix that but expect those folks to overcome it all themselves. It’s a class war and we only win together.

LEFT: Where our government incarcerates a person who has a tattoo in honor of a family member.

RIGHT: Where our government incarcerates a person who has facilitated and/or engaged in the sexual assault of over a thousand children.

The CEO of a a multi-trillion dollar company went to the White House, openly handed the US president a gift made of gold, and his company got a special exemption to tariffs the president has illegally imposed.

Also, the Founders took bribery so seriously the Constitution bans it 3 separate times.

“It will be a mostly peaceful invasion.”

I’m sure Russian state TV said the same thing about Ukraine. And this candy ass, coiffed POS is talking about our closest ally for many decades, that have supported us with their soldiers in damn near every military engagement we’ve ever been involved in.

They are the ones cheering it on. That’s why they protect nazi parades and allow people to harass queer folk at pride. This is who most of them are.

A little math about that prison camp in Florida. $450 million per year for 3,000 people is $150,000/person per year. The cost for one person receiving SNAP for one year is $2256, yet they're telling us that's too expensive. threads.com/@unapologeticallyzae

Of course there are. But I’m saying those should be the ones in charge - not ones who sold out to their donors decades ago. It’s not just chronological age but also old ways of doing things - we need new blood and fresh ideas. Corporate Dems stand directly in the way of that and that’s my issue

To athletes and coaches around the world: REFUSE to come to the United States for the 2028 Olympics. Do NOT endorse what is happening in the country. Do not come. That’s how you show you are against the authoritarian takeover.

They haven’t been in a bit and I think we are sliding further down the hill

I did my job in November. And I know Dems are now experiencing what a lot of us marginalized communities have had to endure for generations and I feel for them. We are allowed to be critical (mine is of the leadership - they are bought and sold and leaving us out to dry).

I think you’re right and I’m not sure how much longer the Constitutional part will remain unaltered

All of this. Getting a “win” is a big ego stroke

Love that gif

You’re right about that - defeatism won’t help anything. I am concerned we may have already lost some critical opportunities to avert what I fear is coming

Yup

Most Dems can’t fight their way out of a wet paper bag. Most defer to corporate Dem leaders who do the bidding of their donors (there are exceptions but the majority is not going to help us change a system that is working for them individually).

They already stole the last one and people are just keeping their head in the sand

Ikr. So frustrating. My folks were walking that path briefly- thank goodness they started diversifying their information sources in 2017 or so. So much relationship carnage these charlatans have created

I do think opposition to fascism exist even in some conservatives. How to pull all together to defend against this tyranny is answer to fighting back. I am progressive but willing to ally with any who prioritize our democracy above all else. Let a fair vote decide our fate

With a multi pronged approach it will be easier to convince people that their “victory” is legit

We have hope but it doesn’t lie in the “leaders” of this country. It lives in our people - we need them to wake up. Just worried about what tragedies it might take for that to happen

Won’t see it. It’s a choice at this point

I don’t think we’re having elections in 26 but appreciate your optimism

I was hoping you’d tell us 🤣🤣
