History shows that repression thrives when fear dictates action, and resistance is silenced by self-censorship. It’s on all of us to remain clear-eyed and stay strong to counter the repression tactics of the far-Right.

What drives me crazy about the anti-DEI rhetoric is everyone wants to be judged on merit. But you can't be judged on merit if you can't even get in the door because you don't fit some prejudiced definition of who is capable and who isn't

Intersectionality isn't a ladder, it's a messy pile of cards. So much overlapping and so dependant on how the deck is tossed. It's a frame work for us to understand our proximity to privilege. We all have privilege in various situations. It doesn't stay stagnant in one locked position.

the fascisms that you all know about are CONNECTED with the anti-fat fascisms.
clean food is food that hasn't fallen on the floor.
exercise is what they tell fat people to do to GET US OUT OF THEIR SIGHT because they won't treat us because they hate us.

NOAA’s vast public weather data powers the local forecasts on your phone and TV – a private company alone couldn’t match it
NOAA operates fleets of satellites, sensors on airplanes and ocean-going buoys, as well as radar, providing the data used by weather forecasters nationwide – and freely available to anyone.

i am going to put a finer point on this: executive orders are not laws. and they certainly are not royal decrees. they are interpretations of existing law for the purposes of enforcement. the fact that so many people are treating them as laws is actually driving me a bit insane.
i mean, the president's executive order isn't a goddamn law! as far as this doctor is concerned, who cares what the president says!
A New York City doctor said he will continue providing gender-affirming treatments to his patients younger than 19 despite President Donald Trump’s executive order aiming to ban such care.

One last thing about this thread: this is what fascist totalitarianism looks like. There is no escaping the State, which has become so entangled in technocratic finance that the two are identical. They control the total of our experience.
We're getting to the point where we won't be able to get out of supporting evil.
There's no ethical consumption under capitalism, and even less ethical consumption under fascist corporatism like we're seeing now. It's like with T-Mobile and Starlink. It fucking sucks and we could (con't)
