Not one national paper talked about this. That’s how far things have gone.

Just because you don’t spend time thinking about it, or you don’t understand it, or you actively try to ignore it, doesn’t mean it won’t rip apart your world & destroy everything you love.

It. Is. Only. Going. To. Get. Worse.

Over her figure is a handwritten quote in white text that reads: “The wicked become even worse when they are tolerated.” – Tolstoy.

The BBC's RFK Jr article is the worst "both-siding" I've ever seen

On one side we've named public health experts spelling out why RFK's cuts + vaccine misinformation are evil.

On the other side, you've unnamed "others" with "well, say what you like, he has energy".

"Both sides" say the BBC.

This is objectively nuts but impartial ‘news’ currently lacks any metric to express that one ‘wrong’ newsworthy thing is several billion times worse than another.

My thoughts exactly. See Sarah Everard killing in the UK for further details. Killed by a police officer pretending to arrest her.

An anniversary worth marking.

I'm sure we're going to see the very people who have trashed its legacy seek to appropriate WW2 today - so let's remember what was really fought for: peace, a more united Europe, a land fit for heroes (mark 2) and the defeat of fascism.

There is absolutely zero reason to cave to Trump, as we’ve seen from Columbia his administration will absolutely go back on its word. The only way to stay safe to protect your institution is to stay loud stay visible and stay engaged.

Tonight is the 250th anniversary of Paul Revere’s midnight ride. May his memory remind us all to resist the tyranny forming in our government.
