A Christmas Carol is an enduring classic because it lets us enjoy the fantasy that miserable rich misanthropic bastards can have enough therapy forced down their throat that they realize they should care about other people.

There's an impeachment resolution against this guy in the House but it's not being talked about very much because "This lunatic is trying to kill your children" isn't a compelling enough political message I guess

WOW. @haleaziz.bsky.social with a new scoop: ICE now gets a running list of every person who is going to be taking a domestic flight inside the United States from the TSA and runs it through their database looking for targets. This explains the Babson College student's arrest.

Worn #onthisday in 2017 by surfers in Carpinteria, CA: gas masks to filter smoke from the Thomas Fire that ravaged Ventura and Santa Barbara Counties. It was fourth-largest wildfire in California history at the time; it now only the ninth-largest. #OTD

Well now, would you look at that? A massive, 4-YEAR-LONG study of NEARLY 30 MILLION people in France found that individuals who received a COVID-19 mRNA vaccine had a 74% LOWER risk of death from severe COVID-19 compared to unvaccinated individuals and ZERO increased risk of all-cause mortality.

One of the biggest, easiest, and most frustrating cudgels of capitalist propaganda is the promise that if you're OK harming others, it will save you from being harmed.

It's a lie.

It's always been a lie.

The fear induced by capitalism will lay the groundwork for such ideas to have fertile ground.

It's kinda wild how people will say "We can't do communism! Horrible things would happen!" and then live in an economic system that does this and think it's largely okay.

A new CNN report uncovers that the IDF knowingly:
•Shot starving Palestinians trying to collect flour
•Bulldozed their bodies into shallow, unmarked graves
•Left them to decompose, scavenged by dogs
•Never documented these murders & tried to hide them

This is what genocide looks like. Horrific.

The Zohran press conference is your regular reminder that the entire administration folds like tissue paper at the slightest hint of confidence and conviction, and thus the fact that national democrats are playing a game of capitulation and weakness is exactly why they're all getting away with it

unfortunately my most woke opinion is unpostable, so my second-most woke opinion is that wage labor (and eventually money altogether) and borders should be abolished. you get food, shelter, and healthcare just for existing, and you can unfasten your seatbelts to move freely about the planet
"my least woke opinion is---"

That's enough. We've had enough people indulging in the "thrill of a little conservatism", as a treat. Of considering reactionary thought to be a salacious and taboo in a world descending into reactionary mania.

Give me your MOST woke opinions. We're bringing it back.

The value of reading history is you know that in 1860 there were abolitionists who were so demoralized that they thought chattel slavery would be permanent. 5 years later those still alive had lived to see its end.

Remindee that her own campaign actively ignored pro-Palestinian voters, marking them as "no contact" during her campaign, while sending Richie Torres - a rabid zionist - to do "outreach" in Dearborn, MI.

"This could take down Democrats, too."

I know. And I frankly wouldn't give even an itty bitty damn if it implicated every Democratic man in Congress, every Democratic hopeful for 2028 and every Democrat who has even thought about running for office.

Down with the sex predators, wherever they are.

"Democrats will never fully support disabled people because disability is the antithesis of capitalism. It requires we take a step back from always making a profit when it comes to the lives of people who can produce no profit outside of extraction from our for-profit healthcare system."

100% this.

We say "missing," because we do not know for sure, but we also know what we all suspect to be the outcome.
This cruelty must stop.

There’s no doubt countless more stories like these that will never be told

People being harmed who will never have justice.

We know 1200 people went missing from the Everglades facility and 3000 are missing from the Chicago raids.

Make noise for all of them.
