Please join us this Saturday as we support our federal workers and join millions of other patriots peacefully protesting in the streets. Protesters are being asked to wear yellow, a bright color that has historically been used against oppression.

Every time the Trump regime escalates attacks on our communities, the #NoKings movement grows stronger.

We, the millions of Americans who make up of this peaceful movement, are coming together on Oct. 18th to say: NO KINGS! Because we love this country LFG app.sosha.ai/s/RkHdFhUg

No Thrones. No Crowns. #NoKings.

This Saturday October 18, we rise. Not to protect a broken system, but to protect each other.

We do not bow to power.

We build people power.

My name is Aftyn Behn, and I am running for Congress to feed kids, fix roads, and fund hospitals. I pledge to be a Congresswoman for the working families of America, and not for the corporations.

Now let's flip the table, flip this seat, and take back the house.

No. I'll summarize. You came onto MY post to try to embarrass me with patently false information. Instead, you were called out for your bigotry with facts. Next time, just keep scrolling, honey. Now, kindly fuck off.

Glad to know you were baiting me with your question. Knew this wouldnโ€™t be an actual discussion ๐Ÿ™„

The Help is also criticized for white saviorism. I am all for criticism!

Thatโ€™s different than banning books. I am against censorship from all sides. But weโ€™re having an epidemic of book bannings from MAGA republicans, so thatโ€™s where Iโ€™ll focus my energy.

Again, your initial question doesnโ€™t really make sense. The book has been banned by several school districts and criticized for making white people feel uncomfortable since it was published. Iโ€™m still not really sure what youโ€™re asking or the point youโ€™re trying to makeโ€ฆ?

Oh my god, can you go play mean girl somewhere else if youโ€™re not going to actually discuss something. Itโ€™s getting old.

I literally said I would discuss it with you. But then again you do seem to be against reading, so understandable you didnโ€™t read what I wrote โ˜บ๏ธ

I see that this small-minded puritanical pixie is laser-focused on getting the government reopened and the troops paid.

"Cosplay Karen" Noem can whine about this shutdown being the Democrats' fault, but we know the truth. Republicans control Congress & they let this happen to avoid voting on releasing the Epstein files.

They Ordered Propaganda. Airports Said No. American airports are holding the line for Democracy against the Trump propaganda machine. ๐Ÿ”ฅ Let's help by sharing these awesome videos! ๐Ÿ”ฅ

Last week Noem tried to turn airports into propaganda theaters, w/ security checkpoints playing video blaming Democrats for the govt shutdown. 19 major airports, including JFK, Seattle-Tacoma, Phoenix, Denver, Boston-said no. The Hatch Act (the LAW) prohibits such abuse

 "The video is not playing at ORFโ€
Officials with the Norfolk International Airport have declined to show a video from the Department of Homeland Security that puts blame of the government shutdown on Congressional Democrats, saying the airport authority does not promote political messaging in its facilities.

Watch this quick explainer on the Hatch Act and youโ€™ll see just how far the regime has goneโ€”propaganda in airports, partisan emails, and political orders from the top. Itโ€™s not โ€œmessaging,โ€ itโ€™s a full-blown assault on the law that keeps our government nonpartisan.

I mean, the question doesn't make me uncomfortable, but it does reveal a deep lack of understanding about how book bans work on your part. Maybe do some reading, and come back when you're ready to discuss ๐Ÿ˜‰
