These posters started popping up ahead of next week’s We Ain’t Buying It boycott.
From Nov 27 - Dec 1, folks are stepping back from corporate chains like Target, Home Depot, and Amazon. People are done being squeezed, so they are using the leverage of their wallets 💥

I don’t know how many times I’ve watched this video.
I don’t know how we’ve gotten to the point where men in full balaclavas can abduct daycare teachers while they’re watching children.
But I do know that this isn’t sustainable. Abolish ICE. There is no way to reform this.

I’m horrified by Trump’s order to send 300 National Guard troops to Chicago. We’re only nine months into a four year term and already the president is trying to invade an American city. If you’re in the Guard, you can and should refuse these orders.

"Mo Chara’s real problem is that the message he put out landed. Working-class people aren’t meant to speak like this, organise like this, or connect struggles across borders like this. That’s what scares them."

Supporting the troops in practice looks like not sending them off to war and ensuring veterans are taken care of.

Members of Congress make $174k per year & receive government healthcare.
Yet, those members who vote to cut Medicare and Medicaid never cut *their* government healthcare.
Why? Because they know getting your healthcare taken away is devastating.

Care to comment on the 70 innocent civilians killed in Gaza yesterday by the state that these two young people worked for? How about the 2 million that they’re depriving of food and water? And the 14,000 infants were not talking about any more?
