This country needs to shut down for a month so we can re-teach civics to everyone

as fake videos become harder to spot (and honestly I've seen audio desync in a similar way on real footage posted here) it really is important to consider sources, find originals, and think critically. the social media tendency to glance briefly then repost can't survive this onslaught of bullshit.

(6) This idea that democrats should abandon trans people and immigrants and climate change (in 2025!) is just unconscionably dumb.

Declaring “I’m focused on prescription drug prices” sounds like pandering because it IS pandering. Everyone can tell.

Try standing for something. See how it feels.

(4) Trump and the Republicans don't have an advantage over Democrats because they *better understand heartland Americans.*

They have an advantage over Democrats because they created their own universe of propaganda outlets, and then went out and bought all the mainstream outlets.

Duh.

Treating bus riders like criminals — instead of the billionaire tax cheats who are robbing our communities of revenue for schools, hospitals and more — highlights the absurdity & cruelty of the federal occupation of D.C.

We demand an end to federal overreach and the harassment of our communities.

“There is a reason why federal agents know exactly where to do detentions and jumpouts. MPD has surveilled Black and Brown people in DC for years, and their collaboration has given feds a demographic and cultural map of our communities.” @dcmigrantmutualaid.org
