the Epstein files are really devastating because they remind me of how many girls and women miss out on professional opportunities, mentorship and careers because of how many powerful, rich and influential men only view girls and women — and interactions with them — through the lens of sex

“Are the arts important?” Humanity practiced them long before they had use for science and will practice them long after math is gone. Is the dawn important? Is dusk?

“Sure, we’re raping the children right in front of us, but is there more we could be doing to ruin lives all over the world?”
don't mind me, just finding lots of bread crumbs showing Epstein and the League of Pederasts were a driving force in pushing transphobic hate.
This email was sent in October 2014, at the start of the current anti trans political campaign and astroturphing.

Minnesota based Independent Journalist GEORGIA FORT has been arrested for filming a protest of the church pastor that works as an ICE manager. SPREAD THE WORD! Georgia has been doing outstanding reporting from ground zero!

More than half of all renters spent at least 30% of their income on housing. That’s the threshold the government uses to define “cost-burdened.”
And the gap between renters and owners? It’s getting wider. In 2005, the difference in housing cost burden was 21 percentage points. Now it’s over 28.

Strikes should be a sustained and organized action.
A one-day, half-assed strike accomplishes very little.
Look at the 1835 Philadelphia General Strike, which lasted for 3 weeks and won us the 10-hour workday and increased wages as an example of what can be accomplished through long-term action.

It's a complete policy failure that 3 men es control basically all of social media, Mark Zuckerberg, Elon Musk, and Larry Ellison. They control what we see, what we can share, and ultimately how we perceive reality. This is too much power on too few hands. These companies must be broken up.

This guy went to work today, put a mask on, kidnapped a 5 year old child, and then used him as bait so both he and his father could be sent behind bars
