Do you not understand that passing the ball back and forth between a fascist and a fascist enabler isn’t actually any kind of solution for building a society that is centered around the people? Do you plan on never losing an election again and somehow the Dems becoming more progressive as a result

RIP Jesse Jackson. He demanded the right to inspect the Krome detention facility in Miami after it became apparent Krome was a glorified concentration camp created by Ronald Reagan for Afro Latinos and Black Haitian refugees who fled to the USA after the Mariel Boatlift.

Krome still operates today.

RIP to Jesse Jackson, who in this debate w/David Duke in 1977 delivered (until the host cut him off) a message of unity and against "national isolationism" that's important to hear today. He also ended the show w/one of the sickest burns ever directed at Duke: "You're not even a legitimate Klansman"

Banning social transition in schools is abuse. There’s no gentler word for it. It’s relegating young people to constant degradation and places students and faculty in inherently adversarial positions. It also precludes stealth transition, forcing young trans people out to their peers.
Braverman says social transitioning would be banned in all schools, "no ifs or buts". She says the 50% target for university education would be replaced with a 50% target for kids going into trades like electricians and plumbing. As ever, I'll believe it when it's the MPs' own kids who do this.

Also, there will be no pain free process where more parties emerge beyond the Dems and Republicans. It will require pain it will require knowing defeat is part of building alternatives.

Rev. Jesse Jackson dedicated his life to expanding who gets to belong in American democracy.

From civil rights to economic justice, he challenged power and widened the path for Black Americans. May we honor his legacy not just with words, but by continuing the work. www.nbcnews.com/news/obituar...
Rev. Jesse Jackson, a civil rights icon, dies at 84
“Our father was a servant leader — not only to our family, but to the oppressed, the voiceless, and the overlooked around the world,” the Jackson family said in a statement Tuesday.

ICE agents are still out there this morning, photographing schools from unmarked vehicles and then quickly leaving after being confronted. Keep your heads up.

ICE has been targeting Indigenous business, resource centers, community hubs, etc in Minneapolis. They even targeted Little Earth of United Tribes, a residential housing community that has at least 98% Indigenous residents. It is where the four Oglala Lakota men they took were living.
Why the fuck was ICE spotted near Haskell Indian Nations University in Lawrence, Kansas? Rhetorical. It's easy to go after Indigenous people who have historically been harassed, terrorized & executed. ICE is populated with sick fucks.

I don't believe I've ever seen Ted Levine speak so candidly about his regrets of portraying Buffalo Bill in THE SILENCE OF THE LAMBS. He and some of the crew on the film were asked about the film's cultural transphobia by The Hollywood Reporter.

It is the business of the bourgeoisie to fight for privileges and advantages for its national capital, and to fool the nation or the common folk by passing off for a war of national liberation the imperialist struggle for the “right” to plunder others.

The Ukrainian gvmt has been kidnapping men in broad daylight and forcing them to join the military. In one case, someone with car trouble called the police, and they got kidnapped and forcibly conscripted. Ukraine have also banned military-age men from leaving the country.

One reason Republicans are so laser targeted on trans kids existing, is that trans kids existing requires accepting the bodily autonomy and consent of children.

Which is something republicans absolutely can't do, since they are pedophiles.

Their transphobia and pedophilia is them being consistent

Laughing at this because it literally says at the bottom that it’s not from the Black Panthers, it’s from the New American movement, one of the ancestors of the DSA. It’s not wrong, but I think some people think the Black Panthers are just anything they agree with.
the Black Panthers were right
