"It was for this reason that man was first created as one person [Adam], to teach you that anyone who destroys a life is considered by Scripture to have destroyed an entire world; and anyone who saves a life is as if he saved an entire world." —Mishna Sanhedrin 4:5

Highly considering turning this into an 18+ page once I move into my apartment (about a month from now).

liberals do not want to believe that this is true because it means that politics can effect public opinion rather than only ever reacting to it.

transphobia wasn't 'popluar' even a decade ago. a constant campaign of elite consent manufacturing on the side of the bigots has changed that.

The ADL responds

People insist Mamdani has to be only either Asian or African, and not some diasporic concatenation of multiple overlapping identities, for the same reason they hate trans people: because they fear fluidity and border-crossing and anyone who reminds us that real people do not fit into easy boxes.

@Imani_Barbarin Eugenics undergirds all of American society and it shouldn’t have taken all this for y’all to realize that ableism is applied not just to disabled people. Ableism is what makes fascism work, not only do y’all not look in disabled people’s directions, but you will cheer on your

Whoever ignores the responsibility of tzedakah is called "lawless" in the same way that an idol worshiper is called "lawless". —Rabbi Moses Maimonides (Rambam)

Seeing a lot of racist pinkwashing bullshit about Muslims and homosexuality and it’s a good time to share how I was on the gay marriage beat for a decade and racist gays never believed me when I shared how US Muslims favored equal LGBT rights (52%) over Christian evangelicals (34%)!

You’re so fuckin cute 🥰

We’re calling for a Florida boycott over the inhumane “Alligator Alcatraz” detention site. Cancel your family vacation and choose a different destination this summer.

These are the #BDS consumer boycott targets named in the ground breaking report "From economy of occupation to economy of genocide" by the UN Special Rapporteur on the situation of human rights in the Palestinian territories occupied since 1967.

The American people were lied to about Vietnam, with tragic consequences.

The American people were lied to about Iraq, with tragic consequences.

The American people are being lied to again today. We cannot allow history to repeat itself.

Flyer that says "can't have pride if you're dead. free palestine."

“The queer Palestinian experience teaches us how ‘Pride’ without total liberation is a hollow, meaningless, and deceptive idea.”

Cuba has the most progressive family code in the world.

In September 2022, Cuba held a referendum on amendments to the Family Code in the Cuban Constitution - it passed with 67% of the vote in favor.

Rank me #1.
Rank Zohran #2.
Rank the rest of the WFP Slate.
And Don’t Rank Andrew Cuomo.

This photo makes me cry.
It is always the innocent who will be the victims of war, as tyrants will go unharmed.
War is always an injustice, and the USA and Israel only produce more martyrs as they bomb the neighborhoods of civilians.
She is so beautiful and happy. I hope she is in peace.

Liberals joined conservatives to mainstream anti-vax beliefs about viruses and public health Viruses are bad for kids' health. Public health is a collective effort. Liberals no longer believe either.

Absolutely wild how extremely far right rhetoric on Covid/disabled people, that liberals and leftists rightly attacked MAGA for in 2020, has now been mainstreamed to the point that leftists/liberals are further right on public health than most MAGA people were in 2020. Julia outlines it well here

American antisemitism isn’t people defending Palestinian lives.

It’s people in my mentions defending doing business with a man who literally did the Nazi salute — TWICE — at the inauguration of a white supremacist he bought the White House for.

You guys. You’re the problem.

Bold choice to bring a car that reminds people of bricks.
