You don't hear about unions on the news because those companies own the news. Punch billionaires. Punch fascists. Free Palestine.

"We had two tragic deaths in the House Democratic Caucus; had those deaths not occurred last month, Republicans could not have even passed the bill today," Hakeem Jeffries says.
What he doesn't mention is both deaths were of politicians in their 70s. One had cancer but ran for re-election anyway.

It's hilarious that white nationalist preachers, musk, and the trump administration are all saying empathy is a sin and has ruined our country.
As if the USA, in its entire history, has ever had even an ounce of empathy injected into its decision making.

The genocidal "Israeli" government has resumed it's unconscionable genocide.
so they starved Palestinians through a complete blockade, cut off all remaining electricity to the water desalination plant, and is now bombing Gaza. And our leaders are disappearing and deporting people for speaking out

Meanwhile over on the other place, rightwing free speech warriors (this guy is a former DeSantis campaign staffer) are calling for me to be denaturalized and deported because they don’t like my political speech. This is what fascism and racism looks like, folks.

if you want a frame for anger at elected dems right now, you could do worse than this. “we trusted you when we wanted more in 2018; we trusted you when we wanted more in 2021; and, ultimately, you failed, and we still want more but no longer trust you”
I cannot stress enough that the American people protested, donated, subscribed, and voted in record numbers in 2018 and 2020 and then those institutions that they propped up in opposition to Trump sought to accommodate him instead. And here we are.
I continue to think that we won’t see a 2017-style liberal media addiction/subscription surge. Anger at how the media covered this, no more sense that something could break and end his presidency… I just see a lot of people tuning out for a bit.

I think the problem with everyone being raised on movies of revolution is that everyone keeps waiting for a dramatic swell of music to lead them to do something. If we play a soundtrack of anxious violins will you realize it's time to act?...

It's hilarious that humans think we're superior to other animals. There's no superiority in the global ecosystem. Every creature contributes to it.
Until the vast majority removed ourselves from that process and began to take far more than we ever give. We fill our dead bodies with formaldehyde -🧵

FREE MAHMOUD KHALIL!!!!!
UPDATE—Mahmoud's attorney says they do NOT know where he is.
They were first told he was sent to an ICE facility in Elizabeth, NJ. But when his 8-month-pregnant wife tried to visit him, she was told he's not there.
They've received reports he may be sent as far away as Louisiana.

It’s almost like actually humanizing trans people—letting us be in the room—creates real change and deescalates the culture war instead of treating as pawns to elicits support over, problems for being “too controversial”, or villains for being vocal about our issues to people who aren’t listening.
Rep Zephyr’s speech flips 13 GOPs, trans bills die in Montana
Trans people have been scapegoated so effectively (among older people) that we're flooded with models of how to hate.
But when people hear the love behind why we stand up for each other, we win.
Bravo, @zoandbehold.bsky.social!

So it goes without saying, but let's say it anyway: the concentration of attacks on trans people isn't because trans people are the only people fascists hate (although they absolutely do hate them). It's because they're the people they think non-fascists are least likely to defend.
