HOLY SHIT.
A dark money group, hidden behind a bunch of shell companies, is paying influencers thousands of dollars PER POST to attack @katmabu.bsky.social on social media a month before her election.
Thank you to the people who declined the money and went forward with this. So who's behind this?
ICE raids are not the first time this was made explicit. I think people downplay how much Jim Crow was not just about controlling Black people but it was also about controlling white people. If you thought racism was dumb and acted that way you could end up with a bomb in your home
North West is the most powerful Weaboo in America
this is all to say that should democrats win the house and senate this november, they should hold similarly dramatic — which is to say televised and highly publicized — hearings on the conduct of ICE and CBP, with testimony from victims. we want as much of *this* as possible in the record. (3/?)
The only upward mobility left in this country is doing something politically polarizing and getting a gofundme
abolishing the domestic terror group ICE is the moderate position at this point
Cops led us into the street as the new “protest zone” and then beat us repeatedly.
Got hit in the face with a baton. Leaving to pick up my friends who were arrested.

Influencers are pissed Taylor Lorenz reported on them being part of a dark-money funded content incubator to boost dem messaging and I guess they’re making response videos. it’s all very dumb imho
One of the things the Nazis did when coming to power was push propaganda that Jews were criminals and prone to violence by focusing on crime committed by Jews or fabricating crime they falsely attributed to Jews.
The last 36 hours on X has been this on a massive scale against trans people.

The Internet was once a shining beacon of potential and opportunity. Then it was destroyed.
My latest newsletter is over 10,000 words about how it happened, who's responsible, and how we can build a better, fairer Internet.

i feel like it should be a national crisis that a foreign nation has kidnapped and tortured a U.S. citizen
You are morally obligated to stand in front of a Waymo and block traffic
I have serious doubts that the latest concentration camps in Florida are capable of actually sustaining human life in the environment they are in; this seems, in many ways, to be almost purposeful.
i also think that it is only a matter of time before this court rewrites section 1 of the 14th to effectively end birthright citizenship. the 14th amendment is the chief obstacle to a legal regime of tiered citizenship and subordinate castes, and they will not let it stand.
NY Democratic machine genuinely befuddled after the charismatic, talented person with good ideas defeated the sex pest fuck-up with name recognition

Among the 381 books that the Naval Academy removed was one that my mom, a retired professor, authored. The Trump administration banned her book, and no one could tell us why.

On one hand, this is a real subculture that has emerged amongst a certain subset of people on the right and we should talk about it. On the other hand, these people want to destroy modern American democracy as we've known it since WWII, and that should maybe be in the headline?
Starting to think the US empire was NOT a smart idea 👎
