5 years ago this month, @carolinaide.bsky.social and I scribbled a bunch of postcards encouraging our neighbors to support @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social for state assembly. He prevailed despite my handwriting.

This guy is the real deal and always has been. Rank him first for mayor!

These notes from universities aren't just useless and cowardly, they're actively dangerous at this point! Your university isn't a "community" if it's allowing people to be abducted off the street because of an op-ed.

Real answer is to reallocate all university resources until the student is freed.

What the Venezuelans Deported to El Salvador Experienced Exclusive photos of the arrival of Venezuelan detainees deported from the U.S.

β€œOne young man sobbed when a guard pushed him to the floor. He said, β€˜I’m not a gang member. I’m gay. I’m a barber.’ I believed him. *** He β€œbegan to whimper,” as his head was roughly shaved, β€œfolding his hands in prayer as his hair fell.” He β€œasked for his mother & cried as he was slapped again.”

For four Venezuelan friends, Alien Enemies Act cuts short an American dream President Donald Trump used the Alien Enemies Act to deport Venezuelans accused of being gang members. Relatives of men sent to El Salvador deny the allegation.

Based on this fast and excellent WaPo reporting, these four guys are not gang members, just Venezuelan dads who came to the US to work. They’re now being paraded in shackles in El Salvador www.washingtonpost.com/immigration/...

Trump Administration Aims to Eliminate E.P.A.’s Scientific Research Arm (Gift Article) More than 1,000 chemists, biologists and other scientists could be laid off under a plan to dismantle the Office of Research and Development.

this is the end result of capitalism: destruction of basic environmental protections so corporations can skirt regulations and make more money. it’s all short term gains for the people currently steering the ship. no one cares if theres no livable world tomorrow as long as they can get rich today

they’re arresting people for performing abortions, they’re deporting people for liking pro-palestine posts on social media, they’re sending immigrants to forced labor camps in south america, we are living under fascism right now

When AOC and Adam Kinzinger are both furious at Chuck Schumer, for the exact same reason, maybe you need to give up the idea this is just a backlash coming from far left activists.

Here’s the problem: Even if we somehow get these fuckers out, how can we be assured that the same shit won’t happen again in 4 years? Are we supposed to rebuild institutions twice a decade? Will our former allies bother with us again knowing another asshole will be elected by the next Olympics?

some helpful reminders:

-not all jews support israel
-criticizing israel is not the same as being antisemitic
-being pro-palestine does not equal being pro-hamas
-arresting someone for being pro-palestine is a violation of the first amendment
-violating someone’s first amendment rights is bad
