This post got both Dems mad that I’m “delusional and too far left” and lefties mad that I’m a “centrist”.

Americans are insufferable. Do you want something better or do you just want to yell at each other until we are dead?
“Why do you criticize the left so much?”

Because the right wing are either dumbasses or demons and the Dems seem pretty married to bipartisanship at this point (though it does seem like their voters are getting disillusioned at this point).

I criticize the left because it NEEDS to become viable.

We just heard an "age verification" bill in Montana, and the argument for how it would work was exactly as @evangreer.bsky.social describes—anytime you want to access social media (or an online forum), you would have to scan your face & Artificial Intelligence would guess your age.

Truly horrifying
"Age verification" laws are actually "upload your ID or get your face scanned to access every website, ending anonymity and associating your identity with everything you do online" laws and if more people understood that they would not be down for this authoritarian nonsense

I, for one, welcome the “abundance” fight. It shows the left can fight Trumpism while wrestling with how we can be better than we’ve been.

I have no interest in “actually the government has been doing great” liberalism.

Smiling and nodding when Elon says “if we cancel something good we’ll just put it back in like we did with ebola prevention” requires you to believe that Elon Musk both is and should be the emperor.

Quakers condemn police raid on Westminster Meeting House
Police broke into a Quaker Meeting House last night (27 March) and arrested six young people holding a meeting over concerns for the climate and Gaza.

They are just disappearing people off the street. Having a hard time thinking about literally anything else.
Not sure if this has been shared here yet, but this is video of Rumeysa Ozturk's arrest posted by WCVB. It's terrifying.

Whenever a celebrity gets divorced, I'm like good for you girl. You don't owe anybody an explanation. That's your business! But if you could also send me a DM to explain exactly what happened because I'm nosy that would be great thank you.

R*pe is not about s*x, it’s about power.

Christian Nationalism and American Cultural Christianity are not about faith, they are about power.

Christian Nationalism and American Cultural Christianity are not on a mission of faith. They want to r*pe the bride of Christ.

I don’t really think the posters and subway ads of Musk’s Nazi salute are a good idea, they’re intended to shock people but over time it seems like the effect will be to make it *less* shocking to see a Nazi salute image in a public space. There must be ways to hit Tesla just as hard without that.

President Trump can't punish and deport someone for their political beliefs.

Mahmoud Khalil has not been charged with a crime — he must be released immediately.
