I'm not ashamed to say I want better for myself & all the people subject to US empire founded by genociding slaveholders than the democrats or the republicans. Wanting better than this drives me to seek to positively influence the world beyond marking a ballot. I live for the world we deserve.

also true of like 70% of voters who live in the suburbs of these cities, whose interaction with them is mostly driving downtown twice a year for a sporting event and seeing crime reports on the 11 o clock news
again, conservatives -- and some dems like rahm emanuel -- think just seeing a black person on the street means that the area is unsafe and a sign of crime

honestly I hate the whole framing that a woman choosing not to sleep with or go out with a man is “rejecting” him
it makes it sound so active, like the default is to say yes
when in actuality we all walk by hundreds of people every day that we’re not going to sleep with

dudes are out here wondering
"how can I get laid"
women are wondering
EVEN IF I don't die or go to jail for being pregnant,
is having a baby surrendering a life to oligarchy run slavery
in a dying world where climate change
and fascism are destroying all hope & options a GOOD idea?

Now couple this with the fact that recipients of funding from Legal Services Corporation, the government agency that funds legal aid nonprofits, are prohibited from representing undocumented people, and you begin to see the scope of the problem.
A hugely underdiscussed effect of the creeping fascism of ICE is that debt collectors and landlords are filing more cases against immigrants, even when they're inflated or outright falsified, because they know immigrants are too fearful of deportation to show up to court to fight them.

I’m black. I don’t have any right-wing family. My family has been fighting the right wing anti-freedom fascists since they enslaved my earliest American ancestors. Whether they’re called pro-slavery founding fathers, confederates, the tea party or MAGA, it’s all the same @$$holes to me.

The president of the United States is threatening to strip the citizenship away from an American who says things he does not like.
And our media will invariably present this not as a major crisis, an impeachable offense that must lead to his immediate removal, but as “a spat” between Don & Rosie

We will use their horrific agenda to turn voters against them by the millions in the midterms. And yes, there will be midterms. Don’t even think about voicing defeatism and doing their work for them.

Juneteenth is a reminder of how far we’ve come, and how far we still have to go. Today, we’re once more committing ourselves to the work of ending systemic oppression of Black people in America. We’re not free until everyone is free.

The "outside agitators" are pretty much always the cops. Just as a reminder.
Cannot stress enough that the protest in DTLA was completely nonviolent until the local police departments showed up
Been in contact with multiple indies currently on the ground who confirmed this. Cops pushed, then started firing riot munitions indiscriminately

@melbuer.bsky.social posting for Sean as the situation has deteriorated rapidly. Lines of mounted police surged the crowd and began firing riot munitions directly into people. One person appeared to be trampled by the horses, another detained. Multiple videos incoming

They launched a coup, suffered no consequences for it, won back power, and have used the power to pardon everyone involved while remaking the country through violence and intimidation. It’s just ridiculous to talk about the political violence of yelling at ICE agents within that context.

The day started with tragedy with political violence in MN and instead of being scared, neighbors SHOWED UP to stand together at No Kings Twin Cities. We packed the Capitol Mall all the way to the Cathedral. Estimate 80,000+ right now. So proud of our state. #nokings #indivisible

"As the authors of 'How Democracies Die' so powerfully stated, democracies crumble when good people decide to stay silent. (...) When we self-censor in the face of threats, we hand over our power, piece by piece, until freedom and creativity both wither away."
