Read Until Your Eyes Bleed

Cartoon by Mike Luckovich.

Indeed…read that one last year and gave it away to plenty of like minded folks

Cover of Let This Radicalize You, by Kelly Hayes & Mariame Kaba

A useful re-read from @haymarketbooks.org in this moment when everything is dire and it's so necessary to imagine and build. #booksky

I literally just started this book and I’m loving it so far

it’s genuinely reassuring to me that this is the most miserable and paranoid person in the entire world

Minneapolis Community Defense Is “Riding on the Learning Edge of a Whirlwind” “We are becoming the people that we always knew that we needed to be,” says Minneapolis organizer Andrew Fahlstrom.

We have seen an escalation of fascist violence in Minneapolis that reflects the race war fantasies of men like Stephen Miller. However, Minneapolis is also the heart of another arc of escalation — a mass activation of care and community defense and resistance that signals hope for us all.

SPRINGFIELD, Ill. (AP) — A former Illinois deputy has been sentenced to 20 years for fatally shooting Sonya Massey, who called 911 for help.

Chicken noodle soup is American ramen.

TRUMP ADMINSTRATION: "You can't protest by getting loud, agitated, and in our faces!"

PROTESTORS: "OK, we'll just protest by silently kneeling during the national anthem."

TRUMP ADMINISTRATION: "YOU CAN'T DO THAT EITHER!!!!!"

Firing a few key faces at the top while maintaining the the fundamental system is one of the most common appeasement tactics in history.

Don't settle for Bovino. Don't settle for Noem. Don't settle for Miller.

ICE must be abolished. That is the bare minimum.

People should be required to experience ICE's illegal brutalities before being able to claim that they support ICE and their methods.

The people of Minnesota have executed one of the most impressive civil resistance campaigns I can remember:

- Organized a city wide general strike
- Maintained nonviolent discipline amidst violence
- Mobilized 10,000s in subzero temps to protest and watch ICE
- Flipped public opinion against ICE

If only people supported congressman al green when he tried to impeach trmp instead of mocking him and his cane

I remember him telling him to his face you dont have a mandate and congress laughed at him.

I say this with full force

Fck non Black americans

Yall aint about to do sht

Liberals have no working class solidarity, this is why they continue to blame regular everyday people instead of the people they elect, or the biggest problem which is capitalism itself. They believe shifting the blame will buy them time to save neoliberalism but it’s just pissing people off!

This is ok tho

We just lost a giant. Michael Parenti was the blueprint. He never compromised his values. Never sold out to either capitalist party. His books Inventing Reality and Blackshirts and Reds are classics. He helped wake up an entire generation to the evils of capitalism & imperialism.

PHILANDO CASTILE WAS KILLED IN THE SAME FUCKING CITY WHEN OBAMA WAS PRESIDENT SO SHUT THE FUCK UP WITH THAT “WELL THIS WOULDN’T HAPPEN IF KAMALA WAS PRESIDENT.”

Van Hollen: "They really think the American people are stupid. I mean, we can all see the video. We saw the video with Renee Good. We saw the video with Alex Pretti. The real domestic terrorists are in the White House right now."

friends going to the NFCCG tomorrow.... "Abolish Ice" signs all over the stadium yeah?

ICE isn't law enforcement without training; ICE is white nationalism with guns.

FRANKLIN, TN pastor Kevin Riggs changes his profile pic to “ABOLISH ICE” and challenges other Evanglical pastors to do the same.

AOC: "An ICE officer had violently pushed a woman to the ground and he had come over to help get her up and that is what precipitated this incident that very quickly led to an execution in the streets. What we are seeing here is a momentous pivotal moment for the United States."

Wait until the 2d Amendment nuts find out that simply possessing a gun is now punishable by death.

The delusion of MAGA is they think kicking out immigrants will make capitalism work again.

The delusion of liberals is they think electing a Democrat president will make capitalism work again.

They’re both wrong. The world is in decay because capitalism only works for the rich.

The Epstein files should have been released a long time ago.
