Reminder that the SAVE Act would disenfranchise *hundreds of millions* of women and trans people and that's the real reason they want this passed.

Imagine seeing this and still thinking we need incrementalism. Social media has totally cooked people's brains. We got intelligent people who aren't willing to see the forest for the trees because they don't want to admit they were wrong to a bunch of people they'll never meet in real life.

Neil Gaiman should never be readmitted to polite society. A man with that much money and power, actively putting up a smokescreen of progressivism to conceal his predation, can never be trusted.

bumping this for today.

"No, he would be a terrible candidate, further damage trans rights, escalate several genocides, and destroy the poor, but he would be better than the alternative so you *will* vote for him if the party says so."

I think the country you live in is hurting you

This thread is for the Newsom defenders and UK Labour supporters, and tangentially those defending Corbyn and Sultana’s silence on trans rights.

Asking us to vote for the lesser of two evils is not going to work anymore. We’ve been there and we’ve seen the results.

This article is a very good example of why "more training" and "more vetting" isn't the answer. Jesus Ochoa and Raymundo Gutierrez joined Border Patrol in 2018 and 2014 respectively. These aren't new agents. www.propublica.org/article/alex...

Ahistorical perspectives really bother me because they erase actual people's work while also making it harder in the present because of a lack of understanding of what came before.

“Kamala warned us”

Fuck you

Palestinians warned you
Black people warned you
The Left warned you
Half the international community warned you

The US slide into fascism has been long and slow. Many have been falsely imprisoned or killed by it over decades.

It just finally came for you.

Is anyone surprised?

And here I thought I couldn't loathe these people even more.

The only trans people mentioned in the epstein files are victims.

Hundreds of known anti-trans people are in them, though, either rubbing shoulders with the rape-cult, an active part of the clique, or trying to gain access.

Are you getting it yet?

the feds tear-gassed protesters in portland, oregon again last night

ICE detains two more students from Liam Ramos’s school, officials say The brothers’ mother was taken by ICE and Minnesota educators were forced to bring the children to her

Liam, 5, has been freed, but four other students from his school district remain detained in Texas. Two boys from his elementary school were taken Thurs

“This isn’t something we are prepared or trained for. We’ve dedicated our lives to protecting + educating children,” school superintendent told me

The GOP as an entity must be ended. The mentality that they have the right to execute you, regardless of who you are, is being formalized.

He also platforms transphobic bigots that he then agrees with, and even brings up how his transphobic position is because it's in his heart.

But keep massaging that idea he's not the bigot he himself demonstrates

How can we ever hope to shut down the far-right radicalization pipeline if the centrist libs want to call genocide "vaguely problematic"

*yes if you want to compare the critique of Harris being pro-genocide, most lethal military, tougher boarder : as just vaguely problematic you're a centrist lib*

Here's an opportunity to support the other journalist arrested today; Georgia Fort, who will have far fewer resources available to her than Don Lemon.

thank you, I had only after I commented seen a little bit about upscrolled maybe having that problem, so glad to have extra confirmation

This amendment would have been a Rescission of the 70 billion given to ICE in the BBB and transfer it to Medicaid. (a rescission is the legislative method to claw back, or remove funds from a previously funded project under a budget bill)

Do not let the Democrats change their positions ever again.

Journalist Georgia Fort has been released from custody (video @fox9mn.bsky.social)

For anyone not paying attention, we are at the arresting journalists stage of fascism. Arresting journalists. When does it sink in?

If I was going to consume hemlock, it would be in a delicious Fredo's Best™ Hemlock and Cranberry soda

I love it when people say they don’t know something because if you know the thing they don’t know you can teach them and then they know the thing and everybody wins

see the reason hilary lost in 2016 wasn't misogyny. it's bcos she's a legitimate evil in the world and at the time trump was more of an unknown quantity.

24 hours later: Trump has two journalists arrested

like I get it, our schools barely teach about the civil rights era, or the holocaust in any detail. and throughout all that is the utter lack of reference to queer or trans people.

the oppression was so strong we didn't even exist to most of you by design, but please don't forget us this time

Really wish the CisHet's could stop just overlooking the centuries upon centuries of queer and trans oppression in this country...

thanks for so frequently just erasing our oppression

don't worry though, I'll never stop fighting for everyone

I get tired of saying it, but I’ll say it again: the nature of oppression in America is that they workshop it first on Black, Latino, Asian & Native people.

But it is always, in the end, coming for everyone.
