In Hitler’s Germany, gentiles were as repulsed by Jews as most white Americans are by Muslim or Latino immigrants.

Jewish Anne Frank wasn’t a cute white preteen girl. She had been dehumanized by vicious antisemitic propaganda for decades.

A tweet comparing liberal America’s response to curtailing the free speech of Mahmoud Khalil versus Jimmy Kimmel.

Free speech is only for American men.

Mahmoud Khalil should have shaved and changed his name long ago, plus stopped blabbing about Palestine (it doesn’t even exist) … if he wanted to not be deported from America. #sarcasm but not really.

Disney is smart. They know those that are left after the Kimmel boycott are loyal to them and can tolerate a price increase.

And now, politicians, corporations, media and six Supreme Court justices are all owned by the same billionaires.

It’s impossible to overturn Citizens United without an actual revolution.

Teach every young person you know how to recognize people with true empathy – as well as how others who feign empathy in order to manipulate. You will save them heartache, years of suffering, and perhaps their lives.

I shouldn't be shocked, but I'm still always brought up short to realize how many people think "civility" means "white people speaking in relatively calm voices" no matter what vile shit they say.

AOC: Whether it is a member of congress, whether it is the President to assume and assert and cast blame when the FBI has failed to even apprehend the assailant, is absolutely an irresponsible action.

Schumer and Jeffries are the face of the Democratic Party, and they’re both punchable.

Want to rescue the DNC? Ask them to show daylight. Ask them to call in Chuck and Hakeem! 😏

Republicans are pretending adults don’t know how signatures look or change with time. They’re trying to annihilate truth and replace it with their evil stupidity.

This is what happens when justice serves power instead of people.

Banksy’s latest piece shows a judge beating a protester. They rushed to throw up barriers to hide it.

We need this here because it looks a lot like our own Supreme Court vs. the people.
