Quote from Timothy Mellon, who donated $130 million to the U.S. military, so you know who we’re dealing with:

“Black people, in spite of heroic efforts by the "Establishment" to right the wrongs of the past, became even more belligerent and unwilling to pitch in to improve their own situations”.

If you think any of this started 2 years ago- Saher lost an eye 17 years ago when he was a teenager

Molly Shah @mommunism.bsky.social · 2d

I’m sharing a Palestinian account every day and today is Saher. Saher worked on a his family farm before this. He lost his left eye in the 2008 Gaza war when he was only 15. He’s now lost his home and farm and is struggling to survive with his family including his 2 year old nephew Mohammed.

It was the fourth of July and it was so cold. We stood on a roof watching the muted fireworks through a mile of fog thinking this fucking sucks. No one told me to bring a winter coat to the fourth of July in northern California.

LA is building a new $1.5 billion freeway into LAX.

The very same airport where we just spent $2 billion on the people mover — actually, more like $3 billion, plus another $900 million if you count Metro's investment in the LAX station; so let's just say $4 billion — to make cars go away

The LAX-pressway must be stopped
