Faster and faster society is being taken apart and replaced with a fascist and deeply violent facsimile. The longer the population of this country goes without acting to protect itself the less likely we are to stave off the worst. Things are scary, but we can’t just give up.

If you ever wonder why conservative Democratic office holders seem so ill equipped to defend democracy at the national level, you've just got to look at how they treat civic engagement at the local level.

Heard. Biden gives zero fucks for our immuno compromised friends. The amount of people who rally for this old shell of a once youthful racist capitalist astound me. Like we all forgot how he silenced a victim of sexual assault & refused to allow witnesses to be called against Clarence Thomas.

The position of the ADF and other anti-trans activists is that parents have an entirely unfettered level of control over their trans kids in a public school but absolutely zero rights over their trans kids private medical care
Missouri HB.1739 contains provisions for the immediate dismissal and 4 year suspension from employment for any nurse, teacher or social worker who calls a student a name other than that which is on their school registration forms, or fails to report a non-cis identity.

What is it with liberals who think insulting the left is the way to get them onside? And what is it with all the “you just want a pony” stuff? Like wanting to be able to afford a home, wanting to have healthcare, and wanting to stop genocide are luxury beliefs. Deeply unserious.
