Many conservatives were getting mad at people for explaining Kirk's harmful, violent rhetoric designed to radicalise people to commit acts of violence against those they label corrupt and bad

Turns out Kirk's killer was radicalised by it before realising that Kirk is the one who is corrupt and bad

You know what’s insane to me is that the two attempts on Trump were done by former Trump supporters and he just gaslit a huge chunk of his base, disowned them, and called them stupid. Shit is gonna get wild

Almost every single woman who has told me (or I've read) about their need for a hysterectomy or other similar procedure for major health reasons also was told by at least one medical professional that their husband - or a potential future husband - needs to consent first
When I was 19, I was told pregnancy would likely kill me.

I didn’t want kids. I had never wanted kids. I certainly didn’t want to die.

So I asked for my tubes to be tied and was told no.

They told me abortion would be my best option IF I became pregnant. 🧵

Healthcare is a basic human right.

Disabled people shouldn’t have to “prove they matter” to access care.

Failing to provide basic care to everyone only creates more sickness and disability.

You want to make a population healthier?

Give them medical care.

It shouldn’t be considered radical to believe that every human life has value.

It shouldn’t be controversial to say no one should have to prove their worth.

It shouldn’t be divisive to fight for a basic income, healthcare, education, food and housing for all.

2024 was the hottest year on this planet in over 125 THOUSAND YEARS.

2025 is on track to be the second hottest.

Black people, women & LGBTQIA+ routinely have their health issues ignored, which is a big part of the life expectancy gap between them & white, cis-het men

I have permanent health issues, but because I'm a white, cis-het man, my health issues were only ignored once & I could see a different doctor

Unless you die young and suddenly, you will experience disability.

It’s a natural part of life & aging… yet most people fear it.

They see it as a personal failure. Something to be avoided.

Almost everyone believes they’ll be the exception, because they’ve been conditioned to see us as “less than”
Sen. Tammy Duckworth just said on Colbert, "We should all live long enough to develop a disability," & the audience laughed uncomfortably.

I can tell you what they were thinking. It was "Not me. That would never happen to me."

& the underlying, unacknowlged premise was "b/c I'm better than that."

Nobody is rioting. Nobody is breaking any laws. These are cops in my city of Las Vegas just assaulting and arresting anyone on Fremont Street who looks at them. This is fascism.

Remarkable.

MSNC: "I want to reiterate this has been 100% peaceful."

Seconds later, LA County sheriffs start firing on the crowd.

Yet again, "law enforcement" deliberately escalated.
