Happy Thanksgiving!
Thankful for those who choose to be kind rather than mean, who praise rather than ridicule.

Think of how good it would feel to put a nail in the separatist coffin, and say “we are proudly Canadian and we want to work as Canadians to make the country even better.”

Fear and hate have always been hallmarks of fascism. Let’s not do that.

The Supreme Court will either be the last stand against autocracy or the bridge to it!
If We Don't Fight Back They'll Keep Hitting Us!

When the law doesn't apply to the lawmakers you're not being governed: you're being ruled!

Correction: cowardly bitches literally charged peaceful protestors, pummeling them to the ground & violating their constitutional rights.

Maga definitely voted for this administration to burn the constitution in favor of oppression & authoritarianism.

Gutless red-state governors are bending over backwards to do Trump’s bidding – and they’re taking down democracy with them.

Yes on Prop 50! Don't let the fascists disempower people of color, democrats, non white communities by negating their votes. Arnold Schwarzenegger is doing commercials against Prop 50 yet he has a Guatemalan son with his former housekeeper who could be stopped by Ice any time... Shame on Arnold.

I love California. Unfortunately not visiting because of the sh#$ show going on. I love my country, but not so much the winter weather. It would be great to annex you.

Privatization erodes accountability. Once public services become businesses, decisions serve investors before communities, and the people those systems were built for lose any real voice in how they’re managed. It’s democracy hollowed out through contracts.
