and never experienced violence or witnessed it toward someone else. I love getting on after work and being able to read or listen or write or whatever I want. #ChicagoTransitAuthority, I love you. ❤ (2/2) #CTA #Chicago

I feel like people go on and on criticizing public transportation, especially here in #Chicago, but I generally have had very positive experiences. In the hundreds of times I have ridden a #CTA train in Chicago, I've experienced someone smoking maybe 4 or 5 times, felt unsafe once or twice... (1/2)

The #news be like... you should be terrified because you and your family are at risk of being kidnapped and murdered by violent extremists.

Real life be like... you should be terrified because you and your family are one medical emergency from poverty because wealthy people want tax breaks.

The #SavannahGuthrie kidnapping story is so attractive to the news media because it combines their 2 obsessions: celebrity and sensationalized crime, and it allows them to distract us from what we should really fear -- corporate oligarchy.

Watching #BadBunny, a global music megastar, perform at the #SuperBowl, the pinnacle corporate event of the year, may have felt liberating, but it was not liberating. The corporations and wealthy elites are fine if we feel liberated as long as we don't take the steps we need to become liberated.

If you're not Latino and don't speak Spanish and you didn't understand parts of the #BadBunny performance last night... that's OK. We don't all have to understand everything. Or better yet, you could do a little research and learn about the references. Up to you.

The liberals who are still preoccupied with blaming 3rd party voters for #Trump are like someone blaming their roommate for a leaking ceiling. It's like um no and also aren't we going to fix the leak?

The #Trump Administration is evil. On Gaza, the Biden administration was no better.
February 5, 2026 at 1:04 AM
There's a "ceasefire" in #Gaza. But while it's undeniably good that the rate of Palestinian death has slowed, what about Israeli attacks in the West Bank? What about Trump's plan to make Gaza a business venture? What of the Palestinians and their rights?

It's #BlackHistoryMonth. Let's use this opportunity to learn from Black history about how to stand up to authoritarianism and fascism with strength, brilliance, and perseverance.

If #ICE just gets rid of all the illegal immigrants, and all the people who have family and friends who are illegal immigrants, and all the people who hire and work with illegal immigrants, and everyone who buys from businesses where illegal immigrants work, we'll solve the problem! Won't we?

Wages increased in 2025, but not as fast as in previous years. An #immigration enforcement surge that started in 2025 is not resulting in wage increases for Americans.

Violent crime was down in 2025. It's also been going down for the past 4 years. An #immigration enforcement surge that started in 2025 can't be the cause of a decline in crime that started in 2022. #MeltICE

#ICE murdered Silverio Villegas-Gonzalez. They murdered Renee Good. They murdered Alex Pretti. Enacted the ultimate violence on their bodies because they refused to comply.

Black people, undocumented people, and trans people are generally outside the bounds of state protection. As a white, middle-class man, #AlexPretti put himself outside the bounds of state protection by trying to protect others from state violence.

Click below to contact your Senators and ask them to refuse to vote for the current DHS appropriations bill. The info at the link will walk you through the process. Democratic votes are needed, so we can block this bill! #ice #dhs #immigration

I can't imagine that anyone who knows undocumented immigrants (as friends, co-workers, or neighbors) would be in favor of mass #immigration arrests and #deportations. How could you know the pain this is causing good people and still be for it?

Who benefits from the USA running Venezuela? Taking Greenland? Implementing regime change in Iran? Departing thousands of immigrants? Opening more oil drilling on federal lands?

Spoiler alert: it's #billionaires.

Do we honor #MLK by (a) buying stuff, (b) doing art projects, (c) gathering with community, (d) engaging in service, or (e) fundamentally refashioning the basis of power relations in our society?

Then it seems like your post should read:

Does anyone else remember last season, when *some* Arsenal fans were telling us that Liverpool winning the league didn't count as everyone else was shit?

Just wondering if *those same* Arsenal fans reckon that applies this season, too.
