“If you're not careful, the newspapers will have you hating the people who are being oppressed, and loving the people who are doing the oppressing.”

Our NHS is not for sale.

Trade talks with Trump must not open the door to US healthcare companies profiting from our NHS. Keir Starmer must protect our NHS by keeping it off the table during negotiations. Join me by adding your name to 38 Degrees’ petition:

Trump attorneys’ call into question U.S. citizenship for Native people. They state because Indians “owe ‘immediate allegiance’ to their tribes, they are not ‘subject to the jurisdiction’ of the United States and are not constitutionally entitled to Citizenship.” www.msn.com/en-us/news/o...

Trump has deployed active military to help round up migrants and put them into detention camps.

The military forced us out of our homes at gunpoint in 1942 because we were considered possibly disloyal Americans. They sent us to internment camps for four years.

History is repeating. Pay attention.

Once you are in bed, close your eyes and think of all you've achieved today, no matter how small it is. Then let that pride tuck you in knowing you'll handle even more after some rest.

If this was a Brown / Muslim / Pakistani Man the media would be screaming with outrage and demanding mass deportations.

Very grateful I left X two years before this wildfire and never used Facebook or Threads for news.

It’s clear which of my friends still use X by how crazed they are by the bullshit right wingers are spewing. Misinformation is actively harming people who are grieving and also disaster efforts.

I must say, being on here, I don’t miss getting myself as wound up as I might on Xitter.
None of us need that in this day and age. Life’s stressful enough without actively going looking for it.

My new favorite photo. This is my Grandad (Papi), my mum & her big sister Eliane. My mum is of the view that they are sitting on likely his first car .. ‘the photo was to show off the car not his daughters’. It is August 1951 and he is just 6 years post Auschwitz.
