Double standards, poorly managed by weak messaging from Democrats.
Reposted from reichwingwatch, text above a photograph of a white man wearing a black hat, sunglasses, a bandana covering the bottom of his face depicting a skeletal jaw, and a black T shirt with yellow lettering and symbol: "6MWE" above a bird with outstretched wings over a wreath and standing on a "X" flag. The text reads: "Trump gave blanket pardons to the Proud Boys, a domestic terrorist extremist organization which stormed the U.S. Capitol on J6. Pictured below is a J6 Proud Boy wearing a "6 millions wasn't enough" shirt-- a reference to the 6 million jews killed in the Holocaust. The arrest of Mahmoud Khalil has nothing to do with antisemitism or combating extremism, and everything to do with criminalizing anti-war speech."

A tweet from user "@YesYoureRacist" reposted over a background of green foliage by @voicesoftheoppressed: "My politics come down to one simple principle: We have enough for everyone, so everyone should have enough. We don't have a scarcity problem or even a logistics problem, we have a greed problem."

The Last of Us franchise opens a lot of conversations about ethics (and reveals who is entirely blinded by black&white us vs them mentality)
A reddit comment from user No_Tamangi: "Ordinary people do fucked up things when fucked up things become ordinary."

An image of text over a white background set next to a photo of a middle-aged man wearing glasses. As a heading above the quote, in larger text: "We scientists don't know how to do that." In smaller text, the full quote: "I used to think that the top environmental problems were biodiversity loss, ecosystem collapse, and climate change. I thought that with 30 years of good science we could address those problems. But I was wrong. The top environmental problems are selfishness, greed and apathy... ...and to deal with those we need a spiritual and cultural transformation - and we scientists don't know how to do that." The quote is attributed to Gus Speth.

"I read somewhere that God made trans people for the same reason they made wheat but not bread and grapes but not wine. 'So that humanity might share in the act of creation." They called it 'the divine alchemy of the self.' I think it's a beautiful perspective." Tweet sent by @ThatBoyYouLike at 5:21PM 8/25/20
