This is simply untenable. There is no way forward with media and political classes captured by the right. Every time someone commits a crime you have to pray it's not an undesirable or it's purge time, then when it turns out to be themselves again they just shrug and wait for the next one.

The phrase “transgender ideology” has “increasingly become a shorthand for everything that threatens the MAGA-preferred vision of the nation, of the people, of the family,” says Joanna Wuest, professor at Stony Brook University.

Here is a timeline of the term's use after the death of Charlie Kirk.
It's never too soon for the right to blame trans people

That man's last words were trying to deflect a conversation about gun violence onto "gang violence". He left this world on the wings of racism.

The MSNBC commentator saying that most political violence has historically come from the left just once again showed how we suffer from failing to learn history. Lynching, pogroms, race riots, the political violence that ended Reconstruction, and against the Civil Rights Movement. Come on.

We can be as critical as we’d like online, but we’re not interfering with the money machine. Log out. Walk out. Sit down. Rest up.

A refusal to continue doesn’t require taking to the streets to be pummeled by the militarized police. We can all collectively STAY HOME. Refuse them labor.
Share this tweet if you are down for a national walkout.

‘How am I supposed to explain this to my children?’ is one of the laziest copouts that bigots have been allowed to weaponize against social progress.

“I don’t know.“ is perfectly acceptable in any situation and “Let’s find out together.” is one of the most precious ways to engage with your child.

Big Balls gets beaten up by kids—send in the National Guard; kids get killed in school by AR-15s—thoughts and prayers.

Read that again if you have to.

Period point blank.
Americans are hateful. Otherwise, we wouldn’t be here right now.

Stop assuming good intentions. There are none.

Stop assuming folks just don’t know any better. They absolutely do.

We are here because of clear-eyed choices made by people who value whiteness over everything.

Period.

I'm not loving a country that pays its adults half as much to teach children to spell as it does to kidnap them.

Using all the big terrible words she can thinks to take the attention off the Epstein files. Who does maga hate the most? Yeah let’s get them seething about Obama again. We haven’t done that in a while 🙄
BARTIROMO: Do you expect indictments and prosecutions?

GABBARD: In my view, yes, we have evidence to be able to move forward to prosecute and indict those responsible

BARTIROMO: I want to put a spotlight on those responsible -- Barack Obama, John Brennan, James Clapper ...

“When did America get this cruel?” They ask, while American citizens and lawful residents are being straight up disappeared off the streets and sent to concentration camps.

Maybe people are sick of seeing the rich, white, and powerful be the only protected class in America. Just a guess, though.

Talk about The Wire, Sopranos, Game of Thrones all you want, but the greatest US television program ever made is Sesame Street. It's not even close. 50+ years of treating kids across class, ethnicity, religion not as mini-consumers...but as citizens with a stake in this world.

We are going to hold elections in this country.

We will just be doing everything on hard mode: the registering, the voting, the winning, the getting the winning certified, the transfer of power.

I think it is important to delineate between “not having elections” and “understanding how they’re going to try to steal the election” because if we understand the tactics we can do something about it.

We shouldn't need a Black Women’s Equal Pay Day, but here we are. Still underpaid. Still undervalued.

66 cents on the dollar means we lose thousands every year, for doing the same job.

Over a lifetime? That’s hundreds of thousands gone.

Pay Black women. Period.

He patterned his coup attempt after what 🍊🤡 accomplished and the ppl/elected leaders of Brazil knew better. Here we argue on socials while megalomaniac billionaires and white supremacists make our decisions for us
A reminder that Brazil arrested and charged their former dictator Bolsonaro with planning a coup and trying to overturn the 2022 elections in their country.

If only the United States had done the same instead of giving the plotter of a coup full totalitarian power of the govt.
