Just because Trump is an evil fuck does not make Kamala Harris a good person.

They’re all evil fucks occupying our government on behalf of the worst of humanity: billionaires.

Beautiful mosaic of Kamala Harris made out of all the black men she locked up and kept in prison past their release date for jail labor

Kamala Harris convicted almost 2,000 for marijuana violations and sent many to prison. Now she laughs at 'Kamala Kush' weed variety and says pot smokers shouldn't be jailed

Buzzfeed.

All she had to do to beat Trump was stop being complicit in genocide.

She chose to keep supporting Israel’s genocide instead.

I feel like a crazy person having to explain how this is bad and that no good person would ever commit genocide (???)

Picture of smiling Kamala in front of a huge sign that says Kamala in case her afternoon xanny makes her a little loopy and the text says ahhh Kamala Harris how this country has failed you

No it won't end apartheid or dismantle the Occupation but I still want Netanyahu in the Hague and though it may be a fool's hope, I hope to see him there.

Along with every member of his government and every western politician who supplied him.

Marjorie Taylor Greene just said the Republican Party is “getting destroyed” during this government shutdown as they refuse to protect health care.

“Everyone’s just getting destroyed... Republicans, you have no solutions... It is hurting so many people.”

I'm so sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but the masked ex-Mexican Mafia guy that Jesse Watters had on his show two years ago is not the same dude who was the "antifa whistleblower" on Watters' show last week.

It's also not Rob O'Neill.

Is Fox News’ masked antifa guy also its masked Mexican Mafia guy? Here’s the truth

A Fox News spokesperson confirmed to The Independent that the two men in the separate interviews are not the same person.

NYT: A Campaign to 'Bring Back Bullying'

On social media, some are arguing that bullying deserves a second look. Trolling or not, the push seems to reflect a general turn away from sensitivity.

Link was on my team about fighting ableist language & trying to get people to see its direct relationship to eugenics, it's hard for disabled people to try to speak on that without having support because we always get antagonism.

Fucking fuck. Ryan Murphy needs to stay 500ft away from trans women at all times.

Niko Stratis @nikostratis.com · 2d

"was this extremely famous trans woman a real person? Cosmopolitan puts on their reporter hats"

Ryan Murphy needs to have his laptop taken away so he can't make more of these things

The series includes a plotline on Gein's growing obsession with Jorgensen – but was Christine Jorgensen a real person? And was Ed Gein really fixated on her? We detail the true facts...

And I guess it was fascism when white people bought and sold and raped and tortured other human beings??? Or when they committed genocide???

Yes. We’ve always only been a democracy for white people.

So I guess the US was also a fascist country when FDR was putting Japanese Americans in internment camps, right?

We were so worried about AI gaining awareness and consciousness we ignored the real problem: humans cannot handle even the idea of AI.

i think it’s actually completely okay to say an algorithm is not a real person

hailey @hailey.at
if you're writing a sentence that sounds like eugenics but you go "oh that's fine to say because it's not a real person" (whatever that means) you may want to consider what made you okay with saying that

So much concern about how Trump is different from Hitler, but none about how Trump is similar. Interesting.

Tom Nichols @radiofreetom.bsky.social · 4d

People need to stop saying this. It's not true. Hitler's regime consolidated power at lightning speed, and Trump's not even in that ballpark.

rƎVO⅃ution @cdiprince.bsky.social · 4d

Saying the Trump administration is a fascist regime isn't the same as saying we're living under fascism. Hitler and the Nazi Party embraced fascist ideology long before they ever had the power to fully impose it.
