Transphobes are already targeting the biggest star in women's soccer and baselessly alleging she's a man because she's Black. This is what trans people warned would happen. Gender policing that becomes explicitly racial.

“The New York Times collaborated with a white nationalist eugenicist hacker and agreed to keep his identity a secret to publish a Zohran Mamdani hit piece” is a way bigger story than “18 year old Zohran Mamdani ticked ‘African American’ on his Columbia application because he was a citizen of Uganda”

Over a trillion dollars unaccounted for in the military budget. It's a grift that makes Americans more vulnerable and less healthy.

RFK claims “70% of pharmaceutical products in the world are sold to our country” but this is a false misrepresentation.

His 70% number is exaggerated and is based on sale $ not number of products sold, which ignores the fact that USA pays more for prescriptions than other places in the world

“One young man sobbed when a guard pushed him to the floor. He said, ‘I’m not a gang member. I’m gay. I’m a barber.’ I believed him. *** He “began to whimper,” as his head was roughly shaved, “folding his hands in prayer as his hair fell.” He “asked for his mother & cried as he was slapped again.”

"DEI" is "CRT" is "gender ideology" is "cultural Marxism"--never a static, definable thing whose merits can be defended or debated or reasoned about.

It is a specter, a phantasm, a nebulous evil, a RHETORICAL DEVICE, first and foremost. It is a cudgel to instrumentalize against the marginalized.

Earnest post, but: a thing I like here is it’s okay to have moments of happiness in public without being broadly scolded, and I believe that sustaining this kind of humanity will be very important as we resist fascism.

We have to sustain each other. Making joy isn’t denial, it’s how we will survive
