I don't have a picture of Eddie Murphy, and I'm no friend to AIPAC or any such organization that lobbies politicians to enable genocide or warcrimes.

"Netanyajew" means you want to paint the entire Jewish people as responsible for the genocide. You don't want justice or peace, you want to create more of the same hatred that infects the zionist project.

Yes, this really happened. The Met police has been arresting so many anti-genocide protesters that they’re complaining about how much they’re having to work overtime.

Poor cops. It’s tough being forced to arrest someone’s grandma because she doesn’t want kids starved to death.

looking into the article, important part to it is this was initiated by italian unions, making it possible to organize such action at all. which reinforces for what and why such union restrictions exist in america. keeping labor down doesn't just generate wealth, it also suppresses other movements.

Martin annoys me. He wants to unite the factions of the Dems, but not unite them FOR anything. Not single payer healthcare or opposing the genocide we're supporting or any of the things that are popular amongst ALMOST all Dems. It's a very polite way of saying "STFU and vote for us for nothing".

All of this will come home to the U.S. soon. It always does.

What happened to Silverio Villegas-Gonzalez Immigration agents shot and killed an unarmed 38-year-old father outside Chicago on Friday—and their initial narrative of events was quickly disproven by videos captured by witnesses.

New, w/ @mulchy.bsky.social & @djbyrnes1.bsky.social:

ICE shot & killed an immigrant in the Chicago suburbs yesterday.

Then they immediately gave a misleading account of events.

Chicago erupted in chaos and a father who lived here for decades is dead. This is what really happened:

hi, cis folks!

if you said you’d stand with trans people, we need you now.

the FY26 budget bill gets a vote by 9/30. the GOP wants to jam a ban on federal funding for ALL health services that provide trans care for ANY AGE.

we need you to call senators: reps.fyi

Which work? Calling for gay people to be stoned to death? Blaming airplane crashes on black pilots? Anti-vax bullshit? Election denialism? Pushing Great Replacement Theory?

Kirk’s murder is awful and ominous for this country. But no, we don’t need to honor him or “continue his work.”

We have a bit of a natural experiment here. Compare the tone, quantity and duration of Charlie Kirk coverage with that of the two Dem lawmakers gunned down in their homes in Minnesota 6 months ago. May be revealing.

Charlie Kirk says gun deaths "unfortunately" worth it to keep 2nd amendment - news article from april 2023.

Relevant.

If you host a debate on something like this, you are suggesting the subject matter should be up for debate.

No, human rights are not up for debate.

Those of us who believe in liberation have a moral duty to make sure that any future opposition party jettisons feckless capitulators like these

What Liberals hate about Trump is that he wants to sacrifice every marginalized group all at once to satisfy right wing bigotry and bolster the wealth of the ruling class. The correct *Liberal* thing to do is burn marginalized groups one at a time to the same end. It's more fuel efficient that way.

They're not fascists. They just support genocidal imperialism, jingoism, the institutionally racist/ sexist/ queerphobic/ classist police and surveillance state, prison slave labor, and the ownership class' exploitation of citizen & non-citizen workers, etc. "Scratch a Liberal and a fascist bleeds."

I do think the workers should seize the means of production. Anticapitalism is the MOST core tenant of what defines the political Left, which Liberals, factually, are not. Liberalism is a center-right pro-capitalist ideology. Always has been.

Liberals aren't lefties.

Private healthcare, private prisons, various tech companies that work in survallence, the military industrial complex. Our government is basically a handfull of corporations in a trench coat pretending to be a nation, and it's not just Repubs who made that happen.

That certainly is one definition. There's also Umberto Eco's, which is great. But by the definition you use, we get that from the Dem Liberals as well, who are constantly supporting private corporations that work with the state to undermine our rights and oppress marginalized peoples.

ACLU in California Responds to Gov. Gavin Newsom's Executive Order on Homeless Encampments | ACLU of Northern CA

Newsom's policies towards homless people and encampments are famously draconian. www.aclunc.org/news/aclu-ca... Also, I mean't just within California, a state richer than most countries that do provide singlepayer, but doesn't because Liberals are owned by the same megadonors as Repubs.

I usually go with palegenetic ultranationalism, but in this case I'm specifically using the more common use definition surrounding the hierarchical oppression and subjugation of marginalized "other"s. Most famously, in Newsom's case, trans folk and the often racialized poor.

IDK, but I wouldn't change one fascist with a red tie for another with a blue tie.

Newsom isn't a candidate for shit. The fact that you're so horny to go to bat for someone who actively promotes fascists & their ideas tells me a lot about how much you only PRETEND to care about the people who suffer under Trump's fascism though, because apparently it's ok when a Democrat does it?

You know what would really get under Trump's skin? Not being a fashy used cars salesman who hunts homeless people for sport, and instead provides housing and healthcare for everyone. A thing California, which Dems control, could absolutely afford to do, but don't. You know, ACTUAL progressivism.

Nah. We hate how Democrats keep helping Republicans fuck us all over, and boost/ legitimize actual fascists, like Newsom does with his fellow TERF pals that also hate poor people, Charlie Kirk and Steve Bannon.

Skill issue.

We want him to suck less shit, whether he "fights" Trump or not.

Again, she's famously a huge bigot and supported Trump's policies more than Matt Gaetz. She's a fucking nazi. Standing up to her furher and believing all the same shit doesn't mean shit to people who are opposed to nazis. It only matters to people who only care about what color the nazis' ties are.

The major human rights and aid organizations from around the world, including several from Israel call it a genocide. Just about every doctor who has been there from the US, UK, Aus, & Euro call it a genocide. Genocide & Holocaust historians & legal experts from around the world call it genocide.

Liz Cheney's voting record is more in line with Trump than Matt Gaetz. She's famously anti-queer and pro-corporate. What signal does it send to say to anti-nazi voters when Harris' stance is "we're not on THAT nazi's side, we like this OTHER nazi!"?

I was told a lot to fuck off while shouting for Harris to change her stance on supporting the rape and genocide of Gaza. My Bluesky feed is full of people with similar stories. People were kicked out of townhalls & the Democratic National convention. B.Clinton told Palestinian-American Dems to STFU.
