Hey liberals and leftists: ultra-conservativism, i.e. fascism, thrives on the dehumanization of other human beings. If you dehumanize anyone, ANYONE, then you're behaving more like an ultra-conservative than a liberal or a leftist. You should know better.

Hi. I'm a GenX AuDHDer. I'm agender, light-grayromantic, dark-graysexual, a parent, a grandparent. Yes, you can be on the asexual spectrum and still have a family. Life is complicated. Also, I'm disabled.
Guess being anti-capitalist and anti-fascist means I'm one of the "enemies from within" now. 🙃

This article does not take into consideration the fecklessness of the Garland DOJ and makes yet another argument for the "rights of the innocent" as if people in Epstein's orbit are "innocent"
"There is danger, however, in requiring the Justice Department to reveal the fruits of a criminal investigation — even in a case as compelling and as egregious as Epstein’s," writes @imillhiser.bsky.social.

Engagement on our updates re: ICE kidnappings/fed siege of Los Angeles is significantly lower on Bluesky compared to Twitter. Do ppl on here not care about LA anymore? Are feeds being taken over by liberal commentators? What's going on?
