Racist Influencers Using OpenAI's Sora to Make it Look Like Poor People Are Selling Food Stamps for Cash Folks looking for evidence of SNAP recipients as welfare queens have no shortage of AI generated schlock to use as justification.

Again, this precise use case is why these systems exist-to proliferate people’s racist (transphobic, misogynistic…) imaginary at scale. This should not be seen as a “misuse” but rather the product being used exactly as intended.

If you blame migrants collectively for the horrible actions of a few but do not hold white people collectively responsible when white people commit heinous crimes, that's racism. Just saying.

At a time when our politics feels broken, we need leaders like @mikiesherrill.bsky.social for Governor.

Mikie will work to create jobs, lower costs, and do what’s right for the people of New Jersey.

This was just posted by a CBS News producer on their Instagram stories.

The depth of the shame of a country this wealthy and abundant allowing its people to go hungry is impossible to measure. The fact that a handful of people could fix this by paying their fair share of taxes while still remaining obscenely wealthy makes it even worse.

I have never been a supporter of Donald Trump, but if Democrats don't end the shutdown, I will have no choice but to vote for him for the fourth time.

Food bank director: “for every meal that a food bank provides, the SNAP program provides nine. There’s no way we can meet that gap.”

Millions of Americans are already learning that their health insurance costs for 2026 are going way up.

I want to hear from you so we can make this impossible for the GOP to ignore the consequences of their policies.

If your premiums are going up, reply below and please share your story.

Today, Mike Johnson will keep the House adjourned for the 84th day out of the last 96.

12 days of work in over 3 months.

With full pay and benefits.

The senate has been working, so this is not about the shutdown.

It is about avoiding a vote to release the Epstein files.

Black graphic with a black and white photo of Cecilia Gentili and a quote that reads "Some people believe in respecting my rights, they will lose some of their own. But equality is an endless cake. The more who eat from it, the more there is to share." The quote is attributed to Cecilia Gentili, activist for transgender and sex workers' rights, for LGBTQ History Month.

Cecilia Gentili was a fearless advocate for trans people and sex workers. She successfully helped to repeal New York’s “Walking While Trans” law that police unjustly used to stop and frisk countless trans women.

Cecilia passed away in 2024, but her legacy lives on in our fight for liberation.

A tweet from BrooklynDad_Defiant! says: “No words. If you think a golden ballroom is more important than childhood cancer research... I have nothing left to say to you.” The image shows an illustration of a bald child in a hospital gown, holding an IV pole and looking into an opulent golden ballroom filled with formally dressed adults.

It’s more than just bad priorities. It’s about lack of basic decency.

I tweet: "people who see 50% of their monthly paycheck go to rent don't care if a candidate eats with their hands. they want to hear what your candidate is going to do about housing." John Galt 2025 replies: "Move if the cost of living is too high."

who creates the lively art and music scenes if the rent is too high? who makes cultural life? who serves you food or washes your dishes? who creates the fancy little restaurants that draw you to urban living? affordable housing is at the heart of what makes city life worthwhile.

Speaker Johnson, you ready to swear me in?

Vaccines are safe and effective.

Autism isn't caused by vaccines, and autistic people and their families deserve our support.

When you want information, ask your doctor.

It's more important than ever for all of us to speak plainly, truthfully, and directly about public health.

White people on the left seriously act like people of color made up racism to sow division & if we can just get in line & absolve them of their privilege we can all get back to the class war.

It was a beautiful Sunday afternoon in the Bronx and Harlem at our paper shredding events — we cleared out old junk mail, built community, danced, took family portraits and enjoyed frozen treats (it still felt a lot like summer). Thanks to everyone who joined.

you are no longer allowed to have imposter syndrome.

not after this bari omgwtf weiss situation.

you're literally not allowed to feel imposter syndrome ANYMORE

Neither blacks nor women nor poor people had a voice when the Constitution was framed. So it’s hard to see why we should tolerate all this whining.

Hurting their own

White people are never oppressed for being white, so like @gideonsamuel.bsky.social many of them begin to invent imaginary oppression in order to "feel" something, anything. This is why they cry about "muh free speech" when it's never threatened. Freedom of speech ain't freedom from consequences.

The thing I respect about Greta Thunberg is that she understands most people in the Western world don’t give a shit about atrocities until someone white is affected.

So she’s doing what needs to be done to keep up the pressure.

If more white folks followed that example, we’d all be fine.

History repeats.

Heard you were calling generals fat when the booze had you feeling brave

BREAKING: Our client Mario Guevara, an Emmy-winning journalist detained by ICE in retaliation for livestreaming law enforcement activity, will be deported tomorrow to El Salvador.

Mario and his family are being punished for his reporting. This cruelty is meant to stifle our free press.

I can’t believe I’m watching interviews of city mayors talking about how they are coordinating with other mayors to discuss how to protect their residents FROM THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES

I know we are “used to it” but it is absolutely insane

"some legal experts have called it a crime to summarily execute civilians" says today's New York Times, continuing their long tradition of whitewashing fascism

Absolute all-timer sentence in today's @nytimes.com

It’s wrong that the President and Members of Congress get paid during a government shutdown when our military and public servants don’t.

I will be refusing my own pay if we end up in a shutdown. Government leaders shouldn’t be playing with other people’s chips.

When did illiberal cancel culture destroy America? We asked three free speech warriors performing standup comedy in Saudi Arabia.
