German Jews were citizens of Germany at the start of 1933. By the end of 1933, the Nazis had
removed citizenship from naturalized citizen Jews.

In 1935, all German Jews were fully stripped of their German citizenship.

Citizenship under dictatorships is contingent for targeted minorities.

The "ICE is using military tactics suited for a warzone, not for American streets" rhetoric kinda misses the point that warzones are not naturally occuring. The US military creates war zones from residential neighborhoods and the tactics are not more justifiable just because it's overseas

As the guy who's been shouting into the wind against immigration restriction for 10 years, my new fantasy is to be an anti version of Steve Miller. I convince a president to send gov't employees into neighborhoods to set up welcome centers with language/employment services.

We send forces into Syria, Venezuela, Sudan, and elsewhere, to see if any refugees need a lift. I appear on talking head TV shows, looking serious and intent, talking about how race isn't real, but even if it were, it'd be a bad way to organize immigration policy.

at this time of year I think of the Good Christian Lady I knew who loved “little drummer boy” because drums are made of hide so she took it as a metaphor for beating your flesh into submission to Christ

Legal marriage should be abolished, marriage should only exist as a personal ceremony that the state has no role in
"my least woke opinion is---"

That's enough. We've had enough people indulging in the "thrill of a little conservatism", as a treat. Of considering reactionary thought to be a salacious and taboo in a world descending into reactionary mania.

Give me your MOST woke opinions. We're bringing it back.

q: why did the outfielders raise their arms during this play?

a: according to the ancient scrolls in which the rules of baseball were found, if a ball lands and doesn't bounce that ball is declared god. the players were worshipping god. i doubt there will be a game 7 or any further baseball seasons
Absolutely hate the World Series wedgie here

I feel like I say this every year but I really need people to hear it. Halloween is the best American holiday. Just kids outside welcomed into their world, marching around together, showing off their costumes to the elderly, parents meeting parents, neighbors catching up with neighbors.

i would love to play center field when a no-doubt 430-foot home run is hit and run into the outfield wall at a dead sprint. as the camera cinematically pans up to follow the ball you briefly see me in the corner of the screen absolutely eating shit

little known fact about my trot is that whenever sweet barbara gets home from the frozen lake i go and stand out on the front porch to greet and say hello. if you can, i think it is really nice to take a moment and have a gesture to say 'this meeting happens all the time but i still appreciate it'

I’m really stuck on the way that this eloquently illustrates that men like DeSantis define “people” as “cis men.” He is part of a pro-natalist political party and yet he can’t imagine why adults of prime child bearing age would need healthcare? Are you fucking kidding me?

It cannot be made clearer.

If you continue to support the Harry Potter franchise in any way, you are directly funding the removal of trans people's human rights in the UK.

I have letter to the editor this week in our local paper.
Our community is, once again, facing a developer who wants to turn public, protected coastal land into a golf course. We've been here before. This time, it's shadier. And God knows it was shady last time. www.invernessoran.ca/top-story/co...

It's very easy to say you're against violence. It's much harder to acknowledge how violence is literally what upholds the systems we live in. Violence and the implicit threat of violence literally mediate all of our lives. Why do we pay rent? Why do we listen to authority figures? etc. etc.

Remembering MN house speaker Melissa Hortman, her husband Mark and their beloved dog Gilbert. Murdered in June at their home by a rightwing Trump-voting evangelist, who also shot another MN lawmaker and his wife at THEIR home, 9 and 8 times, respectively (miraculously, they survived).
