The most majestic thing you will see on #bluesky today. 😇
"Social Media is ruining people..."

Social Media is also how we can properly document the truth when presidents claim peaceful protests are violent and they have the military fire rubber and tear gas at unarmed, unarmored citizens who are exercising their rights (1st and 14th Amendments).
Not done, but I figured I'd share some progress as a reminder that I'm alive and pulling out of a burnout era.

So don’t get arrested. Do everything in your power to not get arrested or allow others to be arrested. If they insist on making things more dangerous, become more dangerous.
❗ literally if you deprive people of nonviolent tools for change like the right to vote and the right to protest, what tools do you think remain

now I'm NOT SAYING...I'm just sayin.
if protesting is punishable the same as actual crimes, i would imagine just doing actual crimes would then be more appealing. #notanendorsementforcrimes

What's it gonna take for everyone to realize the occupant of the white house is fundamentally anti-American?
Trump thinks anyone protesting must be from another country when the right and will to protest our own government is a foundational American value.

Man, Bernie Saunders has had enough.

a custard pie in NYC today.
AND they still likely have to say, on the record "The State defends this company's 'right' to condemn thousands, millions, to debt and death, to disregard life and well-being to its clients, but we condemn this desperate, heartbroken, man."
I've been predicting that the trial is gonna be WILD. The prosecution is either going to have to defend UHC and the CEO's practices, ask the jury to ignore them (good luck with that)...

The resistance after 2016 was a success. But we need something bigger and more durable this time. We need an opposition built for the long term. We need to stop being tired and ignore the cynics. I can promise you, my team and I will be in the fight. If we all do our part we will win!
I'm honestly surprised by the backlash of "too dark" comic adaptations. Think about it: characters like Superman, Batman, X-Men, etc have some VERY provocative connotations at their core, but, even after 60-80 years "fans" want to IGNORE these possibilities because "too grim"? Feels dishonest IMO
