IQ is stored in the skin if you're racist and balls if you're misogynistic.

bring back maligning racism as the mark of a stupid person. prejudice is the mark of an idiot. if you believe that shit i bet you also don’t wipe your ass

Remember when in this country we publicly denounced nazis and nazism?!

Those were the days!!!!

I know I shouldn’t… but this and the entire thread has given me so much… lolz 😂

When people talk about the excesses of MeToo, they have to lie, because the reality is that there was no massive social reckoning forcing people to believe survivors or hold perpetrators accountable. In fact, there has been a significant backsliding and new punishments in rejection of MeToo

I think the ”super radical” takes that Mamdani is a counter revolutionary phenomenon are extremely tired arm chair shit

Also he is gonna be Mayor of NYC so anyone who was expecting him to lead the revolution either works for the NY Post or doesn’t understand the system or both

Beshear: Let me be clear. The president has both the funding and the authority to fund snap during a shutdown. In fact, every other president in every other shutdown has done so. People going hungry in this instance is a choice that this president has made.

This really hasn’t gotten enough attention this week.

Australia has so much solar that it's offering everyone free electricity Australia's extensive solar power penetration makes so much energy that the government wants to offer free electricity at peak hours.

BREAKING: Starbucks workers have just authorized a massive strike.

Union Starbucks baristas voted to authorize the strike by 92%.

Now baristas in over 25 cities could launch an unfair labor practice strike on Thursday, November 13th.

The utter stupidity of pursuing a criminal trial against someone for throwing a sandwich that bounced off a bullet proof vest pissing away hundreds of thousands of dollars for this joke is the perfect encapsulation of this Administration.

Families "horrified" after daycare teacher pulled out of school by federal agents. The incident happened in front of parents and children at Rayito de Sol in North Center, a parent said. They believe the employee, who cares for infants, is legally allowed to work in the United State...

“They didn’t just walk in chasing one person, they went into multiple rooms asking and looking for teachers while children were present,” Ramirez said. “This is an agency that has gone rogue and it an agency that believes that as long as they can cover their face, they can get away with anything.”

Zohran Mamdani’s Campaign and the Radical Idea that Muslims are Human - The Rumpus It is against this background of a country that has reduced Muslims into a dark, foreign, terrorist “other,” that Mamdani ran a campaign that centers the affordability of the city for all who live wit...

Si la campagne de Mamdani a rappelé que les musulmans sont des humains, "idée radicale" en un temps aussi raciste, elle rappelle aussi qu'il existe des musulmans socialistes, progressistes, LGBT friendly, etc : l'islam n'est pas condamné au conservatisme, il n'est que ce qu'en font les musulmans.

Jesus I see what you've done for others

I love that Zohran did not praise Cuomo in his speech. You absolutely do not have to say nice things about bad people. We should normalize that in “polite” politics: Praising bad people is not actually “civility.”

Highly recommend!

The way my mind, body, and soul was repulsed by this😭😳 🤢

Why, Lord? Why?

I’ve already read a couple of the letters and I can’t wait to share with student organizers. They need to read these.
We spent a fair amount of time thinking through a series of “Beautiful Solutions” that they came up with based on local context, in the spirit of this:

Book cover for Read This When Things Fall Apart- Letters to Activists in Crisis

Got home from a long day of teaching (one of the classes is a three-hour seminar on social movements & organizing) to find “Read This When Things Fall Apart - Letters to Activists in Crisis. It couldn’t have arrived at a better time. Shared the letter from KHayes that came w/the book w/students. 🙏🏾🫶🏾

Because they couldn’t sell them, they’re giving the ugly ass things to the cops

That visit earlier this year is a shadow over the whole season in my opinion and I actually saw that political value in the Blue Jays winning. But they didn’t. So now it’s on us Dodger fans to be extremely fucking clear.

My thoughts: Many Trump supporters dependent on government welfare programs believe themselves to be in the minority & deserving of those benefits. To them, Trump & the Repub’s MAGA projects can take priority; at least for now.

When the sufferation (as we say in the Caribbean) starts, we’ll see.

What villainy should be about.

We're currently at the "Jesus didn't say we should feed people"
portion of the fall of American Evangelicalism.

Pop Base tweets: "Kim Kardashian said on ‘The Kardashians’ that she believes the moon landing was fake: “They’re gonna say I’m crazy no matter what, but like, go to TikTok. See for yourself. […] There’s no gravity on the moon. Why is the flag blowing? The shoes that they have in the museum that they wore on the moon is a different print in the photos. Why are there no stars?”"

"go to TikTok. See for yourself."
