There is no left-wing violence in Chicago or Portland. It simply is not happening.

It's so not happening, in fact, that Republicans in Oregon took footage from two South American countries to create a hoax photo about Portland.

They have no actual violent footage to put forward.

Republicans post fake image of Oregon protest – using photos of South America

A federal judge had blocked Trump’s request to deploy California national guard to Portland

Incredible.

Jack Posobiec references the earliest version of antifa -- the anti-fascists in the Weimar Republic who were opposed to the Nazi Party -- as the bad guys.

I NO LONGER RECOGNIZE MYSELF…
The person I once was is buried beneath the ruins of these endless nights.
My heart carries more pain than it can bear.💔

Every breath I take feels borrowed,
and every sunrise reminds me that I survived…
but I’m not truly alive.

A 9-year-old pepper sprayed in handcuffs, crying for her dad. A teenager wrestled to the ground, and another pepper sprayed while waiting for the bus.

All were Black girls hurt by police.

Living in a neoliberal dystopian hellscape @breakify.bsky.social · 14h

Remember when Dems controlled the presidency, the House, and the Senate for two years and did nothing while states like Florida and Texas were openly persecuting trans people?

The idea that liberals have any interest in protecting anyone is total bullshit.

@talleststone: I hate to say it but the majority of the country is not going to die on the hill of trans rights. We can’t protect ANY groups if we can’t win a national election, so purity tests only serve to make specific groups feel triumphant. That’s not “erasing” them; it’s long-horizon strategy.

Lets see... BIDEN 2020 adopts MAXIMALIST CIVIL RIGHTS strategy re: immigrants, trans, police reform, etc & some of Bernie's SOCDEM policies, & HE WINS LARGEST VOTE IN US HISTORY.

Biden backtracks, HARRIS 2024 moves right & loses.

And THE LESSON YOU LEARNED is to throw minorities under the bus!?
