Trans, anti fascist, humanity enjoyer. Real fuckin tired of interesting times. Follow me, I'm gonna start posting and writing. ICE and fascists have got to go.
This has been my exact contention. Yesterday was a real wake up call that this country is so much further gone than I had previously thought.
the overall reaction to charlie kirk’s demise (online and in the media) treating him as a tragic loss when he was a repugnant white supremacist — and the pearlclutching over anyone who says as much — shows how and why this country is so much further to the right than we’re made to believe it is

"Political violence" is a term that exists to suggest a moral distinction between "violence against politicians" and "violence by politicians" - so that one can be condemned while the other can be normalized. Obviously, no such distinction exists in reality: violence is violence.

Two innocent children are dead and the far right are racing to use it as pretext to further eradicate trans people. This mass shooting had nothing to do with the shooter being trans and everything to do with them being radicalized online by a nihilistic murder cult that worships mass shooters.

I think talking immediately about how it's too bad Zohran can't run for president or how Lander should run for Congress is missing the point. we don't need to elevate individual heroes as high as possible, we need to find as many principled people as possible and empower them everywhere

The big problem with the politics of "just do what polls say is already popular" is that most people don't have strongly-held opinions about most issues. When pollsters ask, they answer. But they're often taking elite cues, not expressing deep passions.
Leaders can lead people to different stances.

My sense of things has always been that most people do not have strong, deeply felt opinions on a lot of policy issues, and so their opinions can change fairly quickly depending on what’s in the news.
Why do people's opinions on a single issue change with the direction of the wind?

liberals think they are on the right side of history but the most brillant Black theorists have challenged this idea vehemently. to be a liberal historically has meant to protect capital and empire while fighting against the left to prevent radical changes in lieu of their more preferred gradualism.

thinking about this passage, & how scotus scheduled oral argument on birth right citizenship (which feels like an echo of the run up to the immunity ruling) and did so on a technical issue (which feels like the abortion bounty law standing decision that presaged the overturning of roe v wade)

One thing I want people to take away from this: “Alligator Alcatraz” is not really exceptional in its cruelty.
If you read enough stories about conditions in jails, prisons, and detention centers, you learn that abuse, starvation, rotten food, and deprivation are relatively common tactics.

#Baltimore Mayor #BrandonScott invested in 42 summer youth camps, 29 literacy programs, extended the rec center hours to 11 p.m, planned block parties, opened the pools for safe fun, & opened several schools up for summer classes. Crime is down 62%. 🔥🔥 www.washingtonpost.com/dc-md-va/202...
Baltimore is seeing the city’s fewest homicides in 50 years. Here’s why.
Multiple people have taken credit for the historic drop that mirrors a national decrease in violent crimes. Baltimore Mayor Brandon Scott says it’s due to a community-based approach to gun violence.

the US revolution was not a revolt against colonization but instead the (seemingly) permanent cementing of the colonial project. It's not like India or Ireland breaking free from the UK, it's like if the British colonists in India broke free from the UK's control.
