🚨 On May 1, 2025, in cities across the US, we will gather in solidarity—honoring the legacy of workers who organized for the 8-hour day.

Today, we face a new threat. A billionaire-backed minority is quietly reshaping our democracy.

BUT a peaceful People’s Movement is growing. 👉 www.FiftyFifty.one

Hi, I'm God, and I have a question!

To all the politicians, lawyers and media people who have bent the knee to King Donald, I want to ask them one thing:

HOW THE FUCK DO YOU LIVE WITH YOURSELVES?!?

May Day isn’t just history—it’s a warning siren and a rallying cry. Born from protest, built by workers, and led by immigrants, it’s a day of resistance we still need.

Elon promised to save $2 trillion, which became $1 trillion and now $150 billion. The only thing he's cutting is expectations.

Forcing people to pay $130 for a passport in order to vote is just a Jim Crow poll tax by another name.

It is blatantly unconstitutional.

Of course he doesn’t care if it hurts YOU. You aren’t him. And, of course, he is the only one who matters.

Don’t let them get you to give up hope.

This is what they want more than anything.

My heart cannot handle how consistently the disability community loses our most powerful voices to situations that amount to "they simply couldn't come up with the money to keep living."

This fucking country is a systemically ableist eugenics factory backed by the Healthcare system and the US govt.

This makes total sense when the eugenics of the disabled and chronically ill people is your national policy. Genuinely surprised they didn't do this sooner.

This commission statement refers to people with Autism, ADHD, asthma, auto-immune disease, and chronic illness as a “dire threat to the American people and our way of life”.

This is a manifesto against disability.

This is the language of eugenics.
