The opposite of woke is willful ignorance. Gen X, mostly TTRPGs and politics. Abolish the 2nd. BLM. Sex work is work. TERFs are trash. Fetuses aren’t people. Fascism is bad, actually. Leguminati. He/him.

I’m calling it now: when El Cheeto Bandito dies, Republicans are going to scramble to suppress his autopsy, because it’s going to reveal some serious Habsburg-type stuff. Stuff his own people know all about right now, even as they tell us he’s the healthiest, strongest president ever.

“Blue no matter who” doesn’t mean we’re not allowed to criticize Democrats. It means that in the general election—NOT the primaries, the general—you vote for the Democrat, because they’re running against a fascist.

Want to vote against the Dem for whatever reason? The primary is the time for that.

I urge you not to think of these folks as traitors to their party and constituents, but rather as the first line of Democrats who go mask-off as a conservative party.

If the DSAs were to make a clean break, I think they’d get quite a bit of support.
If Chuck Schumer was a stronger leader, he would have been able to convince most of these senators to hold the line.

I’m terribly disappointed in him.

It’s never been about Christianity, or freedom, or morals, or protecting children (or anyone else).

It’s always been about power, and control. All that other stuff is for plausible deniability.
BREAKING: Trump’s ICE bans Christians and all people from praying “in front of or inside” the Broadview ICE facility.

So, forced prayer in school is good, but volunteer prayer for the prisoner is banned.

This is what white nationalist Christianity looks like. This is Trump’s fascist America. Smh.

i hope this election cycle empowers everyone the next time a centrist liberal says to drop pro-trans and pro-immigrant rhetoric to enthusiastically tell them to shut the fuck up

To all the establishment Democrats who declined to endorse Zohran Mamdani: catch up, or get (rightfully) left behind.

You don’t get to name your kid X Æ A-12 and then say “or whatever his name is” about anyone else.
Elon Musk endorses Cuomo for mayor of New York and makes sure to add some racism in there: “…Mumdumi or whatever his name is.”

I really want it to be that the Epstein files are all over the Trump admin, and a British spy got their hands on a copy and handed them off to MI6 and the royal family.
So did King Charles see the Epstein files or what?

I think that’s literally what he wants.

He thinks ending SNAP only affects Black people, because Reagan said so.

So once he gets them to riot, he can invoke the Insurrection Act, send in troops, and suspend elections forever.
This is just literally fucking insane. If Trump is doing it to get his violence in the streets, he’s going to succeed because even I feel like breaking shit.
Both Republicans and Democrats are demanding the house open to get SNAP funds released to 42 million Americans before it’s too late. www.newsweek.com/snap-benefit...

Why is it that every disappeared US citizen is not front page news? At the very least we should have a little box with a count of the number of citizens who have been taken away and are not locatable and a link to a story with photos & min-bios, just as we used to do with military casually figures.
In Portland, Oregon, masked ICE GOONS abducted and vanished US citizen Gonzalo Catalan last week. Tragically, his family remains unaware of his whereabouts and has not received any communication from him as of today.

Remember: The richest 1% evade over $160 billion in taxes every year.

That amount would fund SNAP for a year with money to spare.

Ask yourself who the real freeloaders are.

Or that 71% of SNAP recipients are working?
Someone want to tell Mikey here that 86% of all SNAP benefits go to households that include a child, an elderly person, or a person with disabilities?

Or that almost 40% of SNAP recipients are children?

And that Whites account for 37% of SNAP recipients?

The U.S. has conducted 10 strikes on alleged drug-carrying boats, killing 43 people.

Remember: no judge or jury has found these boats were trafficking drugs. We're simply taking Trump's word for it.

He’s unilaterally acting as judge, jury, and executioner.

This is a danger to us all.

Went to a prayer service tonight at St. Mary of the Lake, where they have cardboard cutouts throughout the church representing parishioners afraid to come to Mass because of ICE.
