Dear friends in #Gaza, I cannot help you financially. I’m scraping by as it is and I hate that I can’t do more for you all. Multiple messages a day on multiple platforms and the most I can do is share your fundraisers.
I will still do that, to be clear, but I absolutely cannot donate for now.

without birthright citizenship in the united states, you don't have a democracy and you don't have rule of law.
revoking birthright citizenship gives fascists free rein to purge the country of literally anyone they don't like. it opens the door to atrocities and mass murder. i am not exaggerating.

Anyone who says “be normal” betrays that they have an implicit value system of who is considered normal and who is not, and when you have that, you will always value some people and traits over another. They will always replicate hierarchies of power in the long run.
California Governor Gavin Newsom said on Thursday that the Democratic Party needed to be “more culturally normal” and “less judgmental.”
