From @studentsdemand.bsky.social : "Turning our schools into prisons is the dystopia the gun lobby wants. We shouldn’t have to live like that...we demand stronger gun laws and proactive school safety policies that will keep guns from getting to our campuses in the first place."

Most of us value truth & dignity. But it’s a radical act to share truth when people in power twist information at will.
With that in mind, imagine a future where truth goes viral and honest players work hard for everyone’s wellbeing. 🙌 We can get there.

Bro trying something but doesn't even get that "the entire quote" is WORSE. Trump babbles some word salad about loving the big California dockworkers and ends with "I think they lost also because of cars." Your cult leader speaks toddler, you still don't understand him, but then brag about it?

Not a mandate. Not a landslide. Not worthy of accolades for MAGA or knives out for Dems.
