Congress Is Considering Abolishing Your Right to Be Anonymous Online
The bipartisan push to remove anonymity from the internet is ushering in an era of unprecedented mass surveillance and censorship.
You should be able to criticize your government anonymously online.
Full stop.
"Age verification" legislation is just a pretty name for "forced online ID checks," meaning everything you post is associated with your government name
We have to stop this.

The majority of faculty on campus work on semester contracts w/no job security. Even those with tenure can be denied due process. Don’t cut us out of collective bargaining. The higher ed lobbyist agenda is NOT pro-worker! @donscott757.bsky.social @senlouiselucas.bluesky.bot @ssurovell.bsky.social

Every Democrat planning to run in a primary in 2028 might want to start working on their record of standing for immigrant and trans rights, and against genocide and imperialism. We will be checking your work.

There's been a lot of debate within the Democratic establishment about what rhetoric to use via ICE.
Well, an incumbent doesn't lose by 48 percentage points very often—and her vote on collaborating with ICE was the defining issue here.

Kansas invalidated a trans woman's license even though she never changed her gender marker.
It's not about the gender marker. It's about targeting trans people and making their lives unlivable.

Transgender People, “Gay Conversion,” and “Lesbian Extinction”: What the Data Show

since The Atlantic is apparently reviving the "a was a feminine gay child, but if I was a kid today they would have 'transed' me" trope, here's an essay I wrote back in 2020 explaining why this is not true & there is no evidence to support it: juliaserano.medium.com/transgender-...

Rev. Jesse Jackson built the Rainbow Coalition as a political home rooted in dignity and solidarity. That struggle continues here in New York City, in every fight for housing, justice, and equality.
Today, we lower our flags in his honor — and recommit to the movement he called us to build.

Tribune for Race and Class - The American Prospect
Jesse Jackson, who died today at age 84, advanced perspectives and interests that were effectively democratic socialist.
Great tribute here to Jesse Jackson from Harold Meyerson, who eloquently and forcefully championed America’s multiracial working class during the heyday of neoliberalism.

Rest in power to the civil rights icon Jesse Jackson, who was an inspiration for his great city of Chicago, this nation, and the whole world.
And for my party. Because if Jesse Jackson had not run for president, there would be no @workingfamilies.org.

Trans rights aren’t tanking the Democrats.

"In other words, there hasn’t been an organic shift in public opinion on trans people but rather a massive astroturfing campaign against us." www.bostonreview.net/forum/how-no...

A foreign policy for the working class is one where states collaborate to discipline capital instead of working with capital to discipline our democracies.

It is obscene that the Healey administration wants to "phase in" regressive corporate tax cuts from the Big Ugly Bill rather than permanently opt out of them as other states have. #mapoli

We don't have to believe this will work in order to take it seriously. But "the states control elections & he doesn't have enough goons to make it happen & the Constitution says ______" isn't a plan. 1/6/21 & getting away with it to become POTUS again also were illegal.
