Interesting stat from the article

“Parental rights” is such a horrifying phrase. These people really think of their children as their property.

It's pretty amazing to me the amount of shit that apparently you can Just Do as an NYC mayor. It makes basically every other American politician look like an incompetent loser.

What do you mean there was just a button that reversed wage theft? Why wasn't and isn't everyone hitting it all the time??

The toxic rot at the heart of this slowly collapsing Empire is weaponized transphobia.

The only way to fight it, like the prerequisite for fighting it, is absolutely unimpeachable full throated stentorian acceptance, support, and allegiance to trans people. Anything less is capitulation.

Men aren’t born with a propensity to commit acts of sexual violence. It is socialized behavior, often learned through abuse itself. Take fraternities and hazing as one example. The slightly older students beat the younger ones and the cycle continues year after year. Sports teams, armies, the same.

Okay actually this is the only Meitantei Precure livetweet thread that matters

FUCK ICE, I PLAY YUGIOH, TRANS RIGHTS, HIGH GUARD IS DOGSHIT, ALL TECH BILLIONAIRES WILL KNOW JUSTICE, I LOVE CUPSY AND HATE AI

I think about this post a lot.

While independent bookstores are giving out free whistles, hosting protest sign making events, and donating proceeds to mutual aid, Amazon is *checks notes* providing technology that assists ICE in their terrorizing of communities.

Independent bookstores deserve your support. Amazon does not.

The biggest risk in this moment is something sociologists call “symbolic compliance.”

That’s when an institution that is violating civil rights gives the public just enough symbolic victories that accountability efforts lose steam before there has been any meaningful change.

"He was carrying--"

"Well she shouldn't have been--"

"He was planning--"

You're telling me this nation, currently ruled by decree and not legislation, now condones vigilante execution too?

This year marks the 250th anniversary of the United States.

But to hear you talk--America died at 249.

Bottom image a close up of Frank Castle’s face with a shell casing flying past. Text reads: "5.5 POUNDS OF PRESSURE AND ANOTHER NAZI GONE." "I TRY NOT TO SMILE. "IT STILL HAPPENS.”

Tim Doyle a famous Marvel artist is making some of the most Metal Anti-ICE art right now! Ghost Rider, Wolverine and the Punisher taking ICE out!

I know that Incredibles 2 is really contentious as a sequel to the original, but NGL, Dicker saying "Politicians don't understand people who do good simply because it's right. It makes them nervous." lives rent free in my head.

Voting NO on the DHS funding bill is the bare minimum.

Backing Kristi Noem’s impeachment is the bare minimum.

Holding law-breaking ICE agents legally accountable is the bare minimum.

ICE is beyond reform. Abolish it.

no one should ever vote for a centrist democrat ever again. they don't reduce harm, they don't resist fascism. all they do is attack socialists and appease nazis.

Abolish ICE, prosecute and imprison its leaders, impeach and remove the President from office. This is the only sane reaction to a group of armed men kidnapping and gunning down our neighbors in the street.

jaderemedy • 4h ago And now comes the most nauseating part of this whole goddamn mess: the hypocrisy. The same loud-mouthed idiots who spent years screaming about tyranny are suddenly dead fucking silent, or worse, cheering, now that it's their side doing it. "ThEy'Re cOminG fOr OuR gUnS!" "GoVerNMenT oVerReAch!" "ShAll nOt bE inFrinGeD!" All that chest-thumping bullshit evaporated the second armed federal agents started terrorizing people they don't like. Let me get this straight: a civilian gets shot dead by federal agents, and the only thing you brainless cunts can muster is "well, DHS says he had a gun"? THAT'S your red line? Guns are sacred when they're strapped to your waist, but magically become a death sentence when they're used as a post-hoc excuse by the government? Either the Second Amendment applies to everyone, or you never believed in it at all. Fucking pick one and own it. This is exactly what tyranny looks like, by the way. Not jackboots marching in formation, but armed agents roaming neighborhoods, stopping people, killing civilians, and then daring the public to question it. Tyranny is execution followed by a press release. Tyranny is labeling the dead a "threat" so the state doesn't have to explain why someone's life just ended in the street. Tyranny is demanding obedience while shredding due process and calling it order. And all you so-called "freedom lovers" are fucking fine with it, as long as it's brown people, immigrants, protesters, or anyone you've already dehumanized. Turns out "don't tread on me" actually meant "tread on them." You weren't afraid of tyranny. You were afraid of losing dominance. There's a difference, and this moment exposes it completely. "Just comply" isn't a principle. It's cowardice dressed up as common sense. It's the language of people who have already accepted that the state gets to decide who deserves rights and who doesn't. And once you make that deal, don't act shocked when the line moves, because it always fuckin…

BTW when I say abolish ICE, I mean abolish it entirely and replace it with exactly nothing. Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses yearning to breathe free. That's it.

the regime considers all resistance violent resistance. you chanting while holding a sign and carefully remaining on the sidewalk is as worthy of the death penalty to them as someone throwing a Molotov.

hey listen sometimes someone says some words and they're targeted directly at your soul and you spend exactly forty minutes making it because how else do you get "heavenly spheals" out of your brain

Hi folks, I'm seeing a lot of "Eyes on Minneapolis" & "We support Minnesota" sentiment. Here's a tangible way you can help:

Trump just suspended federal funding for SNAP benefits to Minnesota. Second Harvest Heartland is an MN-based hunger-relief org.

Please donate what you can.

You Minnesotans are really setting a precedent for the rest of us to follow. The whole country, especially your neighbors in SoCal, are with you. Thank you for showing us how it should be done.

This is what love looks like.

surely the one millionth superficial hypocrisy own will get them to change their ways

Look Around You This unique combination of parody and homage to early 70s/80s British educational programs examines different scientific topics in each episode.

I've been leaning towards Tubi being the streaming service, and now I think it's official: they have Season 1 and Season 2 of one of the best science and technology comedy shows ever made… "Look Around You".

Thanks, Tubi. Thubi.

In solidarity with today's ICE OUT OF MINNESOTA blackout, MinnMax is donating $1 to the Immigrant Law Center of Minnesota for every share of this Bluesky post for the next hour.

Prepare now. Prepare now. Prepare now. Prepare now. Prepare now. Prepare now. Prepare now. Prepare now.

Every day, every hour there's another set of images, videos, accounts out of Minneapolis that burn my blood.

Masked men kidnapping 5 year olds in broad daylight. Literally.

I'm in tears and anger for my home. Evicting, Dismantling, Destroying, and Prosecuting ICE is the minimalist position here.
