This person thinks the "one issue of Gaza" GENOCIDE isn't enough to stop them for voting for it. They think trans and nonbinary people don't know how to vote in their best interest. They may not even know what the word binary means? And of course they call all trans and nonbinary folks "dumb fucks"

Was replying to someone else, and got this... another one

@onyxgardens.bsky commented to a post (that is now blocked), that says, "BIDAN WAS THE ONE WHO STARTED AND FUNDED THE GENOCIDE ALONGSIDE NETANYAHU, YOU DON'T THANK THE OPPRESSOR FOR "TALKING ABOUT PEACE"

@anita72.bsky replies with, "It amazes me that so many binary and trans people stood on their one issue of Gaza and threw both Americans and Palestinians under the bus, without recognizing that HE'S COMING FOR YOUR RIGHTS. Dumb fucks."

The trailblazing transgender rights activist Miss Major has passed away at the age of 78.

Miss Major was a lifelong organizer and participant in the ballroom scene. She took part in the 1969 Stonewall Riots and was injured by the police — but she kept fighting.

I think Netanyahu is terrible and the attacks on Gaza have gone way too far. I also think people like you have cheapened the word "genocide" and toss it around so recklessly that there is no upside in engaging in discussion.

NEW: There’s a disaster unfolding in Alaska right now. And no major network is covering it.

The remnants of Typhoon Halong battered western Alaska overnight. Homes, with people in them, have literally been swept into the Bering Strait.

At least 20 are missing. No comment from any federal agency.

The Epstein files shit is the exact same format as “Mueller is going to save us” or Jack smith will save us etc it’s the same as any of the other Democratic Party pacification messages framed as resistance.

I’m a US Army veteran who supports massive cuts to our defense budget.

I support cutting the US defense budget by at least $100 billion and ending all military aid to Israel.

Instead, let’s invest that money in our communities.

Please reach out if you have more info about Joseph William Behling of Manchester NH, previously of Hooksett NH! Allegedly “Marcus NH” of Patriot Front & the New England Active Club, and involved in Patriot Front’s efforts to recruit teens, Behling is potentially a serviceman in the US Navy.

A triptych of images of various points in Joseph Behling of Manchester NH's life. The first is him at his Londonderry High School Class of 2021 graduation ceremony. He wears: a blue graduation gown and cap; a corded sash in red, white, and blue; a medal with a red, white, and blue ribbon with several pins attached; and half-frame glasses. He holds his graduation certificate in its shut holder. He grins, blithely. The second is from a Patriot Front photo op, taken in front of a concrete wall in a wooded area somewhere in or around Manchester NH, during December 2022. A man who is allegedly Joseph Behling holds his right fist to his heart, and conceals his face with a white gaiters and tan baseball cap with a black variant of the Vermont Republic flag. He also wears what appears to be a Colombia Ascender softshell jacket, khaki pants, and glasses. The wall behind him has been vandalized with graffiti, of which a Patriot Front fasces symbol is somewhat visible. The third is allegedly of Behling during Patriot Front's standout against SatanCon in Boston MA during April 2023. A white man of average build, he wears a white gaiter that covers the lower half of his face, including his nose, black aviators, a tan baseball cap with a Patriot Front flag patch on the front, and a navy blue zip-up jacket with a hood. The right sleeve has a pair of patches: the Christian identity flag, and an Appeal to Heaven flag. His right arm is extended outward, and he clutches a cross (with a figure of Jesus crucified upon it) as if attempting to ward something off.

Aaliyah 🇮🇪🇵🇸 ‼️SAVE GAZA‼️ @aaliyahxx.bsky.social · 3d

CNN reports that Israel has refused to release two abducted Palestinian doctors, renowned pediatrician Dr. Hussam Abu Safiya and Dr. Marwan Al Hams, deliberately excluding them from the ceasefire and prisoner swap agreement.

A digital poster features two Palestinian doctors, Dr. Hussam Abu Safiya and Dr. Marwan Al-Hams, against a blurred background of destruction and smoke. Text at the top reads in bold yellow letters: “They are not coming home.” Below, in white and yellow text, it says: “Israel denies release of abducted Dr. Hussam Abu Safiya and Dr. Marwan Al-Hams in deal.” Both men appear serious—Dr. Abu Safiya in a white medical coat, and Dr. Al-Hams in dark clothing with a stethoscope around his neck.

George was just trying to get to work.

ICE pepper-sprayed him, dragged him from his car, locked him in a detention center, and placed him on suicide watch. He even missed his young daughter’s birthday in the process.

This man is a veteran and American citizen. Don't look away.
