The mental gymnastics people are using to get out of participating in a *single-day general strike* just signals to me that most people are not actually ready to do the work it is going to require for like....well, basically anything, really.

I'm sorry, I don't take life advice from people young enough to still be on their parents' insurance plan.

TikTok is legit destroying the ability to have actual conversations about anything and I am begging people to stop using this damn app
Every time a young woman uses the phrase “sesbian lex” a Subaru loses tire pressure. Please stop.

Something I think about a lot in relation to XKCD's "don't make fun of people for not knowing about something" is how so many of us assume everyone will eventually encounter everything on their own. The reality is anything we don't keep something alive in the cultural memory will become forgotten.

Targeting children is a well-worn strategy of state repression. It works by further isolating the networks of care that keep children safe. It demands a total refusal of this logic: we are all each other’s responsibility.

I remain absolutely furious that all this shit in Minneapolis started because a barely-literate homeschooled mormon made a video trying to run up in daycare centers trying to find people of Somalian descent doing fraud despite the ringleader (a white woman) being in jail since March. Demonic.

These 7 Democrats voted to give ICE an additional $10 billion in funding. Anyone who claims to support the constitution has a minimum of 7 phone calls to make today.

"Parent's rights" one of the most insidious ideas out there, parents don't have rights they have responsibilities. Children are people not property.

I mean I dunno. I think it’s different from White House reporters in that they are reporting on toys
💯 This is no different to White House reporters, "embedded" war correspondents, frankly nearly all of those mainstream mofos. And "access = success" is dangerous when you are covering government and war and other matters of life and death and (relatively) harmless when you are covering games.
having worked at a super fan youtube channel i can tell you that getting review codes/going to preview events literally is the definition of success for a lot of people (which is for real fine, have fun), but also an attitude that not every category of media person should probably have right

This exactly why I tell people to fight misogyny and child abuse if they want to fight authoritarianism. Those are pillars of fascism that so many people think are “normal” parts of a “democratic” society. News flash: they have no place in a democratic society.
Watching these videos of ICE attacking children, I can’t help but think about how many of these men first practiced their violence in their own homes.
Domestic violence teaches our oppressors to dehumanize the most vulnerable among us.

Something that has been bothering me about women posting about their loser husbands and then immediately jumping to defend them when they receive pushback is their insistance that they and their husband "operate as a team", so of course duties are split.

Another element is that even Jews who scraped together the cash and documents to flee were often refused entry by ‘safe’ nations, including the USA and U.K.
A lot of Americans are not eligible for foreign long term visas.

People don't really think through how the Nazis actively made it harder for Jews to leave
The idea that all Americans are guaranteed any kind of freedom of movement, including boarding a flight, is quite the presumption at this point.

German Jews were citizens of Germany at the start of 1933. By the end of 1933, the Nazis had
removed citizenship from naturalized citizen Jews.
In 1935, all German Jews were fully stripped of their German citizenship.
Citizenship under dictatorships is contingent for targeted minorities.
