The repression of Palestine solidarity activism, violent Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) raids on immigrant communities, and censorship of the press in the US mean the country's civic freedom ranking has been downgraded to "obstructed" status, the Johannesburg-based Civicus Monitor said.

he's the kind of politician that makes people not trust polititions

I heard there were a couple of closures in the middle east because of iran's missles making them too dangerous. getting kicked out is a big deal. sucks the lamestream media won't talk about it

I understand that they used to teach you how to put condoms on bananas, now they teach you you're a cup full of spit if you are promiscuous. I hate what the Christians have done to us. we need to strip them of moral authority and kick them out of public life

*hugs*

An interesting difference between Canadian weather maps an American: Canadian maps are accurate and don't show the storm magically cutting off at the international border. It wouldn't kill Americans to see that the storm affects their neighbours too.

Atmospheric river dumping 20 inches of rain on West Coast mountain range Dozens of rivers were forecast to spill their banks across the Pacific Northwest, as Washington state braced for its worst flooding in at least 16 years.

Officials warned of “locally catastrophic” river flooding in Washington state Wednesday amid a major atmospheric river storm that was poised to drop 20 inches of rain in the Cascade Range.

Two rivers north of Seattle, the Snohomish and Skagit rivers, were predicted to crest at record levels.

Over the past few years, FSC raised alarms in Washington about debanking of our industry. Thousands of you joined us to file complaints.

Finally, a new government report has affirmed it: major banks wrongly discriminated against adult businesses.

Our work is paying off. Now, we fight for a fix.

this applies to large parts of this country. just absolute wastelands. we need to make it easier to move to places that don't blow so places like you and I came from can be abandoned en mass

Oklahoma: LGBTQ+ books are pornography and need to be banned from libraries

Also Oklahoma: Sixth-graders need a detailed 15 point lesson plan about sex trafficking, including lessons in grooming, sexual exploitation, prostitution, pornography.

they're against teaching honest information, pro grooming for sexual control. it's fucking disgusting and we need to get more vocally opposed to it

Game development left me with a sense of control of my own life I had never felt before. After the CS drama, I have felt castrated and down. I go into my normal job wishing I could devote more time to this, but in reality, its a hopeless venture filled with oversaturation.

Foreign tourists could be required to disclose 5 years of social media histories under Trump administration plan The Customs and Border Protection proposal would apply even to countries that don't require visas to enter.

Requiring foreign visitors to hand over 5 years of social media isn’t “security,” it’s unchecked government control.

All-seeing surveillance systems don’t make us safer. They are in direct opposition to our civil liberties.

Now need 5 years of social media posts to see if you said anything negative about the giant man child president?

Not a serious nation
Not a serious president

#fucktrump

right wingers steal rhetoric from the left because it's more popular, and they can embarrass controlled opposition "left" parties. I don't trust them to actually do it, nor do I trust them to not turn around and fear monger about "immigrant human trafficking" or some shit

I cannot begin to explain how dire and urgent this is. They’re trying to pass the most expansive censorship and surveillance laws we have seen in our lifetimes under the radar, and the MSM is going along with it, boosting these laws and villainizing trans ppl, abortion activists etc. CALL TODAY!!!!

KOSA Won’t Just Silence LGBTQ Voices; It Will Also Be Used To Hide Abortion Info From The Internet We’ve highlighted in great detail how KOSA (the Kids Online Safety Act), sponsored by Senators Richard Blumenthal and Marsha Blackburn, which currently has an astounding 46 cosponsors, will be used…

These laws are to censor LGBTQ voices off the internet. The co-sponsor of KOSA, just one of the 18 censorship/surveillance laws, said we need to pass it to protect kids from “the transgender in society”. These laws will remove ALL anonymity from the internet endangering activists, journalists,etc

🚨 URGENT!!!!!! Congress is trying to ram through 18 massive censorship/surveillance laws TODAY 🚨

CALL THESE REPS NOW and tell them

—NO to KOSA
—NO to Section 230 reform
—NO to age verification laws
—NO to the SCREEN Act
—NO to digital ID laws (App Store Accountability Act)

The every alternate windows theory

With all due respect, we’ve been doing terrible and evil things around the world for a very long time. No doubt American foreign policy is getting more brutal, more violent, more domineering, more depraved. But let’s not lie to ourselves about what we’ve been doing for centuries

oh lovely! I hear the winters are brutally cold there. do you think people could bike there in the winter or is that a three seasons a year thing?

The shit Fuentes and Tate consider "gay" is not gay as we understand it. Its gay because its emasculating to them

Loving your wife and treating her like she's an autonomous individual? Emasculating. Being a nice person and giving others respect? Emasculating

I can go on but that's the core of it

Clips4Sale names 'gooning' as fetish of the year Chastity has been dethroned.

The moral panic around "gooning" is just the latest manifestation of our anxiety around sex and technology. And older, more potent anxiety about masturbation.

Somehow, people investing in pleasure has become one of the great symbols of societal decline.

why are these of all people saying this? I don't get it, like at all.
