Stoat feels closest to discord but its currently swapped by the influx. a few features are not 1 to 1 for discord so your mileage may vary but the core of it is there.

NYPD spend exceeds some countries entire military budget.

They should be defunded. Lets get an organization that serves and protects us.

Remember when "the fringe left" started yelling about the government tossing around the word terrorism and domestic terrorist back under Obama? yeah this ... this was inevitable.

NEW: This was another eventful week for democracy, with the worst voter suppression bill ever passed and new information about an FBI raid built on conspiracies.

Tom Homan on ICE in Minneapolis: "There were some issues here. I'm not going to sit here and say anybody did anything wrong."

We'd be better off if Republicans put as much effort into combating gun violence as they've put into justifying murdering US citizens.

Itโ€™s no mystery to me that courts ruled that ICE is a lawless bunch of thugs.
ICE breaks the law every day and has caused a โ€œLandslide of lawsuitsโ€ for the American taxpayers to contend with.

Here's a headache.

I cannot take anyone seriously about defunding ICE, while they only mention the murders of Pretti and Good as their reasoning.

Let's not forget about Keith Porter Jr., or the countless migrants in that body count.

You're only upset because minorities aren't the only bodies.

Just gonna say there are plenty of insurgent, anti-establishment candidates WITHOUT Nazi tattoos that the New Republic could have featured instead of Platner.

You could ABSOLUTELY make the point that Ds are mad at the centrist leaders of the party WITHOUT helping rehabilitate this particular guy.

Tell Hootsuite: No Tech for ICE! Hootsuite.com promised to cut ties with ICE in 2020. Now theyโ€™re seeking billion-dollar contracts to help ICE monitor social media. ๐Ÿšฉ As a B Corp, they should protect rightsโ€”not build surveillance too...

My email to her:

"So....you want to support/do business with Neo-Nazi's eh? Yikes! Not very Canadian of you. Didn't we go to war to fight this kind of s**t? You should be ashamed!!! I guess the all mighty $ is more important than your dignity."

Who cares if they say they are the best at anything. Tell that to the #Cubans slowly seeing their nation choked out by the energy blockade. Tell that to the starving children in #Gaza getting their brains blown out with American weapons. Tell that to Venesualans.

Homeland security pushes social media giants to dox anonymous accounts critical of ICE Have you criticized ICE online? The government might be after your personal information.

Uh oh, they're on to me. Is that a knock on the door? ;)

Oh right, I am not seeking anonymity here. Just making their job easier...

People who are only engaging with social movements via social media are not going to be able to grasp the depth of collective discipline and strategy that people are coalescing around across the country. Itโ€™s not No Kings peace policing or lib brain rot. Itโ€™s almost invisible tactical maneuvering.

I've slept a bit on this other than a few posts, but one of the most brazen things happening in state governments right now is that the Kentucky GOP is trying to impeach a liberal justice (and the first/only Black woman to join the court) because of a vote she took last year they don't like.

If weโ€™re fortunate enough to have one final chance to vote in a legitimate election in Nov., we cannot elect Congressmen and Senators from the Merrick Garland School of Cowardice and Silent Sedition.

We MUST elect champions of democracy who will fight to save America from fascism.

Great read and itโ€™s important to note that as some women did here, you can take gun safety courses and do live fire training and get a permit and decide you donโ€™t want to get a gun! Big fan of learning gun safety and having a chance to be on the range even if you donโ€™t want to own or carry.
