This Day in Labor History: April 30, 1894. Coxey’s Army, a rag-tag group of unemployed Americans, marched into Washington, D.C., demanding federal jobs for the unemployed. Let's talk about this critically important moment of worker resistance, even if it wasn't too organized!

Can we please move to a world where every single call center out there tries to gaslight us into thinking that they have a "higher than normal call volume" rather than just an intentionally chronically understaffed customer service line? I'm not even mad at the waiting, I'm mad at the being lied to.

“Those nasty Canadians are ripping us off and are controlled by Mexican cartels. They’re poisoning us with fentanyl and need to become the 51st state or they will pay a high price” is a belief that literally ZERO Americans had six weeks ago. It’s entirely invented from scratch.

This is the policy of people who fervently believe in eugenics. They are going to sell this as a thing that impacts Black and Brown people. But it's really designed to get rid of the poor white people (disabled, elderly, substance abuse issues etc.) that rich white people loathe.
BREAKING: House Republicans have released their budget resolution. They are aiming to cut Medicaid by at least $880 billion, and cut SNAP by at least 20%.

Some days I earnestly don't like how much the Bluesky App looks like Twitter, because I get confused as to where the frothing vitriol, porny scam ads and bots are. I find myself bracing as I scroll, and only then realize where I am.

A friend is doing activism work on the immigration roundups, and I thought I'd put together a thread to help others evolve their thinking and media literacy when encountering news or conversation regarding these actions.
