It’s not utopian to demand that in a world with this kind of technology, that as a moral demand, a society feed, clothe & house its people. A society that doesn’t, with the kind of technology and the wealth we have, is beneath contempt and makes a mockery of all the previous history of civilization.

If there is nothing that a candidate can do to lose your vote then shut the fuck up during the candidate selection process. You're already a good little partisan soldier, you don't give a shit. Let people who give a shit about politics and policy do their thing.

another guy who never protested before radicalized to the point of tears by watching masked ICE agents terrify children in his neighborhood

the Republicans are not ready or mentally capable of comprehending the backlash they have generated
Yesterday morning kids were sent running from their bus stop in panic because ICE showed up. This guy at today’s ICE Out of Lindenwold protest is a must watch 😭. @maddow.bsky.social

The discourse around Platner, in circles that I would expect to behave better, is exceptionally anti-materialist and steeped in aestheticism.

He's not a fucking crypto-fascist you fucking forum dwellers. Fucking absurd, conspiracy laden wrecker mindsets.

Ofelia Torres, the teenage Chicago Public Schools student whose fight against cancer while her father was detained by ICE came to represent the federal government's overreach during Operation Midway Blitz, has died. Brave young woman. I will never forget her. RIP.

CCTV footage appears to show DHS agents posing as people having car trouble in order to lure a target out of his house before arresting them. The target comes out and starts helping them before 3 vehicles surround the scene. The car "experiencing" trouble then drives off with them.

On Thanksgiving, the immigrant children held at the Dilley detention center gathered in the gym for what they thought was a holiday feast.

The kids salivated over a spread of turkey, sandwiches, pastries and pies, a family told me.

But the food wasn’t for detainees — it was for the staff.

Consumer spending rose by 3-5%

Cost increases to the consumer, on average, were around 3-5%.

Stop saying "consumer spending is up." People are buying the same exact things it just costs them more. When everyone is already at baseline and the baseline gets more expensive, the numbers lose meaning.
