If you wrote a story about a regime so comically evil that it literally snatches people from their citizenship interviews, you'd be accused of over-the-top imaginings.

If you feel despair, if you feel defeated, if you catch yourself dissociating or focusing on what our oppressors are doing rather than on what you can do yourself—that is territory that the enemy has claimed within you.

Give them nothing. Focus on your agency. We are in a fight that we can win. 🏴🏴🏴

I keep saying this, but people do not realize how fucked up this is and how many people it’s going to harm

It is not hyperbole to say that people will die because of this:
Heard from inside the National Cancer Institute, part of NIH — travel through April is canceled. Purchasing with government card is frozen. All public comms are off limits. Can’t even submit abstracts to future meetings. Can’t submit *manuscripts* for publication. All hiring activity frozen. Fuck.

For example: A huge fraction of pediatric oncology patients are in clinical trials, which is why treatments for childhood cancers have improved so much. Pausing NIH funding fucks with clinical trials that are already under way.

I find that a lot of anti-socialist sentiment boils down to a basic belief that people are lazy and won't do good in the world or work hard unless they are suffering. I believe the opposite. I think most people would do amazing things if they weren't in dire straits constantly.

It’s strange to watch people paint themselves as victims when I know they started the war.

Logically I know that two (or more) things can be true at the same time. People are multifaceted.

That doesn’t excuse poor behavior though.

As such…remember that your reputation is all you truly have.

So now we all have to have faraday bags to go to the doctor. This world is fucked.
New from 404 Media: a location data firm is offering to help cops track targets via their doctor visits. Cops fill out form about their target, including doctor's address. Fog Data Science will then map out person's movements using massive bank of data www.404media.co/location-dat...

Reading hundreds of people's terrible experiences with insurance companies since the death of UnitedHealth's CEO, I really wish the wider population, especially corporate media, would be questioning why we have private health insurance CEOs at all.

This is not about poorly aimed missiles, or Hamas hiding in archaeological digs. Israel has a long history of erasing Palestinian history and culture, and it's intentional.
"The Palestinian Ministry of Tourism and Antiquities reported that Israeli forces have targeted over 188 archaeological and historical sites in #Gaza.

Minister Hani Al-Hayek stated that museums, mosques, and churches, rich in artifacts and history, have been destroyed in the genocide."

The Sanctuary City movement is powerful.

But current Sanctuary City laws––barring city employees from cooperating with ICE––are insufficient in the era of digital surveillance.

An excellent and very personal article on the weaponisation of antisemitism within academia and the chilling of pro-Palestinian voices that comes with it.

Things are feeling bleak for the trans community, and you've probably heard some variation of "We've survived this before." And maybe you think "a lot of us DIDN'T!" That's very true...

But it also helps to know what you're up against, and what worked before.

So let's talk about HOW we've survived
