“Fuck ICE! In this time, in this city, we need to lead with love. Do not forget that shit in this moment. Not to be political, but to be political as shit. Second of all: vote Prop 50. And if you don’t like that, I’m so not sorry!”

This whole thread.

“Oh no, someone might eat food!”

Good. That’s good.

“They might buy something they like.”

Cool.

“They might get a treat!”

Also cool.
There's something deeply disturbing about EBT/SNAP hate to me. Like just truly bone blanching shit.

Please don't worry. I speak for all stoners when I say I will not waste my precious and expensive gummies on your child
It’s that time of year again so I will say: no one is tricking your kids into taking weed gummies. This is a moral panic.

Gavin is in many ways an empty opportunist, espousing any ideology that gets him the spotlight, but when it comes to this, he is a true believer. He’s thrilled to have a platform from which to tell you his plans to dehumanize and further terrorize trans kids.
Finally watched the Gavin Newsom interview & fuck. The moment he’s asked why he agreed w/Charlie Kirk about banning trans ppl in sports, he immediately says “Because I believe that” & doubles down then has the audacity to say no one has defended trans people more. Fuck off. youtu.be/4Dm3diA6z08?...

Here's a photo of my friend and colleague, Jorge Bautista, getting shot in the face with a flashbang grenade. The ICE Agent is so afraid of Jorge (who was posing no threat) that he has wet himself. Please share this photo. Everyone needs to know what cowards ICE agents are.

We have more power than they do, if we choose to exercise it.

Stop shopping as much as possible.

Call big box stores and tell them why.

the reason so much of the left is so obsessed with the idea of finding a white masculine savior who codes as conservative is because they haven't interrogated the way our society is set up to treat that kind of person as inherently more valuable and are still subconsciously buying into it

I need more people who do not have tattoos to understand that this is the most accurate take I've seen of this situation.
getting a nazi tattoo is a whole diff level of commitment. Its not nasty thoughts & it's not even dropping a slur, bad as that is, you gotta literally sit there for hours while someone sequentially stabs you, powering through the pain motivated only by the joy of eventually having nazi branded skin

I'm so sick of discourse from supposed allies about where trans people went wrong.

Where we "went wrong" is that billionaires spent unimaginably large sums to attack us repeatedly and major media outlets have spent a decade piling on.

I guess where I’m landing is less “oh no he’s a Nazi” and more “I just went through this shit with Fetterman and Sinema and a six year term is too long for me to take on faith that your Nazi tattoo was the accident but what you’re saying now is the truth.”

Ultimately, the death of US manufacturing is about this attitude. It's easy to say "buy american or stfu" because virtue signaling is free. But it's hard to actually sustain a business because many Americans simply don't want to pay what it costs to produce things ethically in this country

If this country was truly “pro-life,” we would have Medicare for All, a Green New Deal, gun reform, universal child care, and a living wage.

The right-wing agenda isn’t about “life.”

It’s about control.

Someone responded to me about “not indulging your children’s pickiness” and there were a bunch of words after that but I’ll never know what they were because I blocked them mid sentence. Read the article.

I am not going to compromise my values. I am not going to speak in platitudes or shy away from the truth. And I certainly am not going to throw immigrants or trans kids under the bus because some consultant told me it polls really well with Republicans.
