One of the lessons I hope people take away from Jesse Jackson’s life and the outpouring of remembrances small and large is that progress is made and measured in every act and utterance against oppression and not measured solely in legislative or electoral victories.

Flyer with dozens of organizations’ logos on it advertising a mass march on ICE profiteers (amazon, Home Depot, and palantir) in union square on January 23 at 4pm. ICE OUT FOR GOOD.

Flyer with dozens of organizations’ logos on it advertising a mass march on ICE profiteers (amazon, Home Depot, and palantir) in union square on January 23 at 4pm. ICE OUT FOR GOOD.

On January 23rd, we take to the streets to challenge Palantir and Amazon for enabling ICE to rip our communities apart and for fueling the machinery of mass deportation and family separation.

Union Square. 4pm.

the only reason "abolish ICE" is seen as radical is that no one will say it but the far left. if every normie Democrat started saying it tomorrow it would move the overton window so far you'd have to squint to find it. my kingdom for leaders who understand they can shape public opinion.

U.S. plans to stop recommending most childhood vaccines, defer to doctors The plan, which is not finalized, suggests children get fewer shots and shifts to a model telling parents to consult doctors to make their own vaccine choices.

Robert Kennedy Jr. must be impeached and removed along with the likes of Jay Bhattacharya, Marty Makary, Vinay Prasad, and Tracy Beth HΓΈeg.

It’s life or death.

#CancelSpotify.

Delete the app. Don't use it. They are proudly promoting ICE ads, and the CEO is just a trash human being.

Make an example of one company. All they worship is money. The color green trumps all others.

One under appreciated side effect of great wealth inequality is how fucking deranged it makes the hyper-rich who no longer have contact with anyone other than sycophants or fellow, broken-brained uber-rich weirdos.

The thing we absolutely must drive home to the public is that the Trump administration's immigration policy is being run by committed white supremacists. This is not rhetoric or hyperbole; it is absolutely literally true, and they're increasingly not bothering to hide it.

Unless the guidling principles are "1. Don't use this shit, period" and "2. Seriously, just don't fucking use it" and "3. Always refer back to #1 and #2" I don't want to hear this crap from the AHA.

Running government like a business (looting it, saddling it with debt, shutting down parts that were doing just fine to consolidate market share for other business owned in the same sector).
