I know I’m a libtard but I think it’s bad the U.S. president keeps calling for the killing of specific sitting elected officials who didn’t even commit crimes

Mayor Mamdani redefines what it means to hope His victory has created a harsh contrast between the world we want and the world we have.

"Hope is not blind optimism or uncritical belief in a political savior. Hope, to me, means the ability to imagine a better world is possible and then work to build it brick by brick. It is, as @prisonculture.bsky.social says, not an emotion but a discipline—one we must practice every single day."

Thank you, New York City. Together we made history.

Now let’s get to work.

Turns out a lot of Americans understand that trans people aren’t the reason shit is expensive and people are being starved

Man it feels so good to wake up the day after an election and not feel like I’m attending a funeral

The conversation between Klein and Coates showed me that a lot of people who screech about “infighting” on the left aren’t aware of the fact that marginalized people have been forced to learn how to regulate their emotions during conflict, and so, are better able to hear what’s actually being said.

the president of the united states wants to use the american military to kill american citizens on american soil. that's the whole story!

When a liberal is murdered, we shouldn’t speculate about the political motives of the killer. When a conservative is murdered, it’s important that we immediately blame the left.

The "fuck your feelings" crew is suddenly INSISTING that everyone demonstrate their "feelings" publicly. lol.

Normalize disrespecting bad people

I seriously don't know how to explain to people that it is not in fact a sign of maturity and democracy to peacefully debate whether certain groups of people should be allowed to exist

Once again we're proving the Joker right, huh?

If Black, Brown, or Indigenous people are killed, if Palestinians are mass murdered or trans people are criminalized, if immigrants are sent to gulags, it's all part of the plan. But if one cishet white racist gets shot, everyone loses their minds.

Oh whilst we're on the subject of political violence, it seems appropriate that today is 9/11.

Because Gitmo? Extraordinary rendition? Black sites? Abu Ghraib? The invasions of Iraq and Afghanistan? The way this country treated Muslim and Arab people after 9/11?

All political violence.

Being lectured about being an awful person by the worst people you know is such a vibe

"How Are the Very Rich Feeling About New York’s Next Mayor?"

A Dramatic Reading of The Recent New York Times Dispatch from the Hamptons.

If only they’d also stop voting for her…

What is the name of the instrument that has been synonymous with Ukrainian identity? Hints are in the image!

Women have and continue to play a vital role in advancing the rich history represented by the instrument that has been synonymous with Ukrainian identity.

Frankly I think it’s a good thing that Trump has gone back on his IVF “promise”. All the idiots who voted for him… based on that clearly shouldn’t be parents…

Appeasing authoritarians never works. Disappointing to see @cuny.edu capitulate to anti-academic whims of the current administration.

After mostly shrugging off Trump’s assault on government for the last five months, establishment Democrats have finally found something to be outraged about: Zohran Mamdani’s primary win.

I’ve seen lots of nonsense since Mamdani’s primary victory but the most irritating thread is people claiming they will leave NY if he is mayor. First of all,
Go! It’s fine. It’s FINE. Go swelter in FL or wherever. No one cares. And secondly shut up. You’re lying. You aren’t going anywhere.

World War 3 kinda sucks, but you know, it was either this or pronouns

The NYT was cited in the Supreme Court ruling used to strip trans people of healthcare. This is EXACTLY WHY the “just asking questions” crowd of centrist edgelord journalists are dangerous. They launder transphobia through faux neutral “debate” and act like it’s intellectual curiosity

One thing I am seeing misreported in the media today about the Skrmetti ruling is a claim that the supreme court ruled this is "about age, not transgender status."

SCOTUS also ruled this is about "diagnosis, not transgender status"

Bans targeting adults are likely legal under this ruling.

Everyone: don't rank Cuomo, a serial groping disgraced grandmother killer

New York Times: don't rank Mamdani, a visionary young man

Mr. Antiwar President has us inches away from a Civil War at home and a nuclear war abroad in defense of an ally that is starting random hot regional wars to detract from its ongoing genocide. I’m sure all of this will just naturally cool off.

Notice how wealth class media will spend years normalizing authoritarians, giving them the benefit of the doubt, and if someone who is even considered remotely leftist and wants to help people gains momentum they'll change every rule, twist history, and attack them relentlessly.
