There is no pathway out of this that does not run through whites collectively choosing to reject white supremacy. It will be uncomfortable, perhaps painful for some. The most effective medicine often is.

White supremacy will collapse. Will you survive it?

My daughter is 15, a child with a baby face whom I won’t even put in an Uber by herself. Just utterly disgusting from the same people who have spent years demonizing trans people as predators for daring even to exist. What are we even doing right now?

I do not want my well-being to depend on these emails being real and damaging. Whether they are or aren't, we already know the truth about Trump and the pathway forward is the same regardless.
Putting some psychological distance between myself and the email drop. It feels too convenient that we have email after email saying "Hi, I'm notorious sex criminal Jeffrey Epstein. Trump is even worse than me and Clinton did nothing wrong."

Not saying it's fake, just very convenient.

As of this morning, Starbucks workers across the country are officially ON STRIKE. And we're prepared for this to become the biggest and longest ULP strike in Starbucks history.

Say #NoContractNoCoffee with us: DON'T BUY STARBUCKS for the duration of our open-ended ULP strike! $SBUX

abandoned civil rights and antifascism in the last election. This is why "progressives" have so much headwind with voters wise enough to understand the civil rights struggle.

This is why the DSA is 88% White and almost 2/3 male.

It used to mean that, in fact a wise old voter recently reminded me that the term comes from progressive *taxation*.

Now a days it means populism, in the sense that the focus is on material comfort for the favored population (the herrenvolk) at the expense of others. This is why"progressives"

It's tough to understand how we got stuck in this cycle where every time a Democratic president does as much as they can with the trifecta they come into office with, the electorate breaks it up in the midterms, then elects a GOP president with a trifecta who dismantles their accomplishments.

So many crickets tonight on both sides of the aisle.

Do y’all know how many republicans & democrats based their HRC hate on Epstein bs?

I gotta give the GOP credit. The $Billion they spent over the better part of a decade to trash the Clintons was well $ spent.

Alot of this is at the core of why settlers dissent against changing "traditions". It's not solely because of "cowboys and Indians". It's because these representations conferred on Natives reinforce larger co-victimization narratives embraced by genociders.
Alot of the "well meaning" "left" doesn't realize they still foster sympathetic relation with bigots because they share similar co-victimization appeals as it relates to settler colonialism.
But again this is why I've already explained 50 million times why Natives use broken treaties as metonymy and that's different from other co-victimization appeals.

ALL OF THIS BECAUSE OF RACISM.

A good chunk of Americans lost their mind because a Black Family lived in the White House for 8 years.

The orange demon was never qualified to run this country but racism allowed & excuses THIS👇🏿

I don’t know a single person that’s shocked by the pedo files today.

Keep seeing bad takes in the vein of "Why didn't Democrats release these emails last week as leverage?"

Y'all. Come on. Why do you think the House Oversight Committee wasn't able to conduct business while Johnson refused to convene the House for 46 days.

Just a crumb of critical thinking, I beg.

This is going to be very nuanced and very divisive. I hope you will do me the courtesy of reading the whole thing and digesting it before commenting.

Okay?
