People talk about American values and I’m always so confused like- a country built on the backs of enslaved people and the slaughter of indigenous people that has fought tooth and nail against any kind of change and worships capital… like that the values

biden staff giggling to themselves as they turn off lights around the white house. "it's going to be so funny when trump has to flip this switch back on his first day," they say.
JUST IN: With 5 days left in administration, AG Garland nixes DOJ's only execution protocol, which uses pentobarbital. Long DOJ review found 'significant uncertainty' about whether it causes 'unnecessary pain & suffering.' Bondi could restore it. Earlier: www.politico.com/news/2024/12...
Biden could foil Trump’s plans to resume federal executions
The president is considering using his clemency power to convert federal death sentences to life in prison.

Last year I went to an old courthouse in a small county downstate.

There was a sign there that read "ADA accessible restroom at the top of the stairs."

And if that isn't a metaphor for the entire legal system, I don't know what is.

If there was an international justice system, a lot of people would go to prison for this
12/ After a 15-year-old Palestinian boy said he was raped in custody, Israel raided the nonprofit that first collected his testimony and labeled it a terrorist organization. That move effectively froze the State Department.

The normalisation of genocide and the criminalisation of protestors demanding divestment from the genocidal war machine renders null and void any redeeming effect of Western societies’ action on other moral and social causes –relating to human rights, justice, feminism, sustainability, or equality.

While working class Americans in parts of NC received no more than $750 in relief funds after the destruction caused by Hurricane Helene, the US government has given aid to Israel equal to over $2,300 per Israeli citizen since 7 October 2023.

Palestine against an eco-apartheid world
In coming years, eco-apartheid will become more prominent worldwide as colonial violence is used to maintain and safeguard Western interests and profits. We are seeing this future in Gaza today.

Religious Zionism party concluded a long meeting. Demands assurances from Netanyahu that fighting will commence at the end of stage 1 of the deal with decreased humanitarian aid, permanent land grab, and “encourage immigration”. Ben Gvir will likely leave with them. N’s choice: deal or coalition.

I said months back that one of the reasons you saw Muslim/Arab leaders in Michigan making overtures to Trump was likely that they saw Biden as ideologically committed and unmovable and preferred to take a long shot bet on maybe being able to influence the venal ghoul who believes in nothing instead.

A reminder that Lakotaman is a threat to tribal identities, sovereignty, and lied about being related to the White Eyes family. If you're listening to him you're buying into a stereotypical caricature of who Natives are and supporting further cultural genocide.
So this guy joined #BlueSky

"In 2014, [Martin] tweeted “call me a Redskin” and shared a photo of himself in a Washington Redskins T-shirt. Years later, he tweeted that the team’s logo was “analogous to the ‘n’ word.” "

Who is LakotaMan, the user behind one of the most popular Native American accounts on X?
John Martin is adored by white X users—but infamous among Native and Indigenous communities.

It feels like people are forgetting what a genocide is. It is the single worst crime that exists, since it is the combination of every other crime committed on the grandest scale. There is simply nothing worse you can do. To be guilty of it makes you guilty of the most profound evil of our species
What was our niche demand again? *checks notes* Oh yeah!

Stop committing genocide.

Excuse me for assuming that basic morality was the baseline in a country that claims to care about freedom and human rights.
I am not running for office in 2026 and your barely contained glee at the thought of Democrats losing unless your relative unpopular and niche demands are met in full is why you specifically show signs of being a bad person to count on in a diverse political coalition.

Democrats thinking that tiktok is what radicalized everyone under 40 to be against neoliberal capitalism and not their own actions and inactions is really something to see for a generation that has continually told us we are dispensable or “acting like children” for being anti genocide and austerity

This is enforced disappearance, which is a violation of international human rights law (and can be a violation of international criminal law). Anyone held in government custody when the gov refuses to confirm their whereabouts is a victim.

I keep seeing all these TikToks and posts trying to ascribe some kind of political rational behind this current conservative anti trans movement, but the truth of it really just is that a few conservative PACs and policy groups picked us as the next vulnerable group to exploit. It’s that simple.

Wow, just heard that Columbia has forced out one of my fave profs from law school for the offense of being pro students, pro Palestine, and anti genocide

This sucks!

At least now with this BS behind her, she says she can refocus her efforts on fighting for Palestine
