People keep doing Nazi camp comparisons, but they remade the original, not the reboot, so idk what death camps y'all are expecting, but I think what they're actually doing goes with something else spelled "plantation."
About activism, June Jordan said, “You do something, rather than nothing… You do whatever you can. You reach beyond yourself in your imagination, and in your wish for understanding, and for change. You admit the limitations of individual perspectives. You trust somebody else. You do not turn away.”
Do not vote to fund even with the face saving reforms on offer. DHS exists to terrorize the population and can’t be reformed.

i am GOING TO get my hopes up every single time. NOT because i am gullible or desperate but because it is FUN
And that -- that brings me to the second mode of civil disobedience. There's a time when the operation of the machine becomes so odious, makes you so sick at heart that you can't take part! You can't even passively take part! And you've got to put your bodies upon the gears and upon the wheels, upon the levers, upon all the apparatus -- and you've got to make it stop! And you've got to indicate to the people who run it, to the people who own it -- that unless you're free the machine will be prevented from working at all!!
I've been thinking of Mario Savio's Address on the Steps of Sproul Hall so, so often in these past few months, and I am so deeply impressed by how many people who may have never even heard it have been putting it into action. www.americanrhetoric.com/speeches/mar...
Modern civil wars don't look like the American Civil War. They're more often like the Years of Lead or Argentina's Dirty War. With that in mind, I don't think it's much of an exaggeration to say Trump's regime is either trying to fight a one-sided civil war or, at a minimum, provoke one.
Frost: For so long, the right wing has held up patriotism as a vibe, as an aesthetic. But patriotism is more than bald eagles and flags and beer. Patriotism is about loving the people who live in the damn country — every single one of them.
Here’s some things that can be done by a party out of power
- file impeachment articles every day in the House
- withhold unanimous consent in the senate and filibuster every nominee
- be everywhere with comms saying this is lawless and impeachable
it would be the honor of my career to be part of the office that prosecutes the lawyers who did this
American politics makes a lot more sense when you realize that the GOP is afraid of pissing off the GOP base, and the Dems are afraid of pissing off the GOP base, but neither party is afraid of pissing off the Dem base.
AOC should absolutely primary Schumer in ‘28.
The Supreme Court bans affirmative action in university admissions but is okay with racial profiling on American streets. That pretty much sums up white supremacy--heads I win, tails you lose, all legal.
“Putin would eat you for lunch.”
Today, exactly that happened.
I’m a dum dum, how does this get around fdic?
the left did not lose the working class.
the left lost white people, who it never had, who are considered to be the only working class, even when they're not working class, because that's how white supremacy functions.
Dr. Caravello was violently seized while trying to help a wheelchair user after a teargas canister landed under the wheelchair. Friends, supporters, lawyers, and media have been unable to determine what happened to him after that, or where he is.

Nine years ago America experienced the last weekend where hope seemed possible
There a reason the protests are being covered differently from the Tea Party
The Tea Party was a front for the wealth class that owns the media and were used to demonize necessary reform
These protests were democratic and populist, which the wealth class and its media opposes
Hope that helps

On June 6 veterans will march in DC to demonstrate that our oaths to the Constitution still hold. This is not partisan; it’s about service, particularly the essential work of veterans in the government and those who care for them. Unite4veterans.org

needed this today, dude absolutely smashed it
I'm thinking about a quote by British author Elizabeth Bibesco in 1934, amid Hitler's growing horrors:
“The Nazi regime benefits from the fact that its atrocities overstep the limits of credibility.”
Today, many Americans suffer from that same failure of imagination. It could be fatal.
The only Dems I will donate to are people who primary this bullshit.
"If we throw minorities under the bus, Republicans will stop calling us too woke" is the same logic that got us Clinton's welfare cuts and Obama's immigration crackdowns.
You can't policy your way out of a right-wing propaganda problem.
