Drummer. Mom. Resister. This is the time when we must choose what’s most important to us: mere survival or fighting for what we know is right. #RiseUp #Resist ✊🏽

No billionaires. If you can’t succeed in life with $999,999,999, you’re either bad at money, or you want enough power to exploit and manipulate.
Every country has a powerful right wing that argue “if you tax the wealthy, they’ll leave”

We need to start calling their bluff.

We need to make it so the ultra wealthy either contribute enough to be a positive part of society, or be globally shunned and unable to extract further funds from us.
Liberty Strikes!
It is time. It is past time. Let’s create food pantries and supply stores to help the needy and pound the streets every day.
“We are going to make them pay their fair share in taxes to fund our school, to fund jobs, to fund healthcare, to fund transportation.”
Chicago Mayor Issues Defiant Call For A General Strike
It was an audacious proposal, given that the U.S. has never held a true, nationwide general strike.

This is the way. If you can’t balance your budget on one billion dollars, you’re bad at money.
Hahahahaha!!!! 💙❤️💙
Democratic mayors: it’s time to follow Chicago mayor Brandon Johnson’s lead in calling for a #generalstrike. If our fellow citizens are forced to work without pay while #billionaires continue to profit, we can all join in #Solidarity. #RiseUp #Resist #WorkersRightsAreHumanRights! #GeneralStrikeNow
Really, doesn’t this just say it all? There are far more of us than there are of them. Let’s remember that when we’re feeling overwhelmed. Let’s continue to have one another’s backs!
I love you putting frogs on faces. You are considerate and clever!
Once again, if you aren’t ANTIFAscist, what does that make you?
I have never seen such a perfect image
They also shoot real people with real guns. Just because they’re young and dumb, doesn’t mean they aren’t dangerous.
In Seattle, No Kings will be at the Seattle center. Come early to see Liberty Strikes at 11am!

Gather while we still can!
"Authoritarianism, it's a cancer. The symptoms are here, today... We thought it couldn't happen here... and now the disease is growing, metastasizing in America. But there is a cure—it requires you. On October 18, Americans will stand up, peacefully, for what makes America, America." nokings.org
It’s always about control. I like how @drjengunter.bsky.social puts it: republicans aren’t the pro-life party, they’re the forced birth party. It’s just a way to keep marginalized people financially unstable and take away a woman’s body autonomy. If you’re dependent on a man, you can’t leave. Ever.
If this country was truly “pro-life,” we would have Medicare for All, a Green New Deal, gun reform, universal child care, and a living wage.

The right-wing agenda isn’t about “life.”

It’s about control.
Yep. There’s Fascists, and then there’s
Anti-Fascists. You can only choose one, so what’ll it be?
Wherever we are in the country, I think this is good advice to follow. For we’re in the middle aged women demo, maybe we could remind them: we’re your moms, your sisters, your daughters, your neighbors.
People of Illinois, we need your help.

Get your cell phones out – record what you see. Put it on social media. Peacefully ask for badge numbers and identification. Speak up for your neighbors.

We need to let the world know this is happening – and that we won’t stand for it.
Thank you for the clarification of the photo location.
Nice to meet you!! Thank you for connecting!
I appreciated her interview with @maddow.msnbc.com , but I really wish she hadn’t been so politicky-waffly about @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social. Establishment Dems really need to get on board and stop alienating progressives. Embrace the left if you want their support!
These are importance words in this distressing time. We have to know in our hearts we can enact change. We just have to do it together.
Remember: If we allow ourselves to fall into fatalism, or wallow in disappointment, or become resigned to what is rather than what should be, we will lose the long game.

The greatest enemy of positive social change is cynicism about what can be changed.
The Israeli people are not the problem.
The Palestinian people are not the problem.
The far right is the problem.
They are ALWAYS the problem.
The more you know…
Education is the enemy of fascism.
Progressives want us to have healthcare, a good education, food, a place to live, fast transportation and the freedom to be yourself, the far right wants to amass weapons, be violent against POC, violate women and children, take your money, keep you mad and ignorant, etc. This is the difference.
Oh wow, she really is a nasty drunk!
Maybe he was actually, inadvertently correct for once!
TFW the acid starts kicking in…
