QANON CULTIST IN 2017: "In this 1,879 page thread I will unravel the byzantine system of codewords and phrases the global elite use to mask their pedophile cabal."

pretty funny in retrospect that QAnon hinged on the idea that powerful elites at the highest levels of government were smart enough to talk in code when sending emails to each other about their despicable crimes

I don't want to "feel like an entrepreneur"! I don't want to "negotiate" jack shit! if health care must be treated as a commodity* I don't want to contribute to the algorithmic setting of its prices! mind your business and tell me what I have to pay to not die

I don’t want to post a ton of identical looking screenshots and this isn’t worth it’s own thread but

It’s tempting to characterize Democrats always caving to Republicans, but when it happens over & over again, you wake up & eventually realize it’s more sinister. Dems are COLLUDING with Republicans because they serve the same donors & same corrupt system as them 🤠 thnx for attending my TEDTalk ☕️ 🥞

American politics makes a lot more sense when you realize that the GOP is afraid of pissing off the GOP base, and the Dems are afraid of pissing off the GOP base, but neither party is afraid of pissing off the Dem base.

About an hour after Ellis entered this injunction, a group of agents, including Bovino, drove away from a Southwest Side gas station where they were confronted by protestors, and fired a round of pepper balls at a sedan that pulled up alongside their vehicle, reports @chicagotribune.com

Her husband told her that detainees at Broadview had to get up at 5am to get in line for one bathroom. He often peed himself. One time he had to wait until 2pm to use the bathroom. You could only use the bathroom once a day. He said the agents would beat you if you used the bathroom on yourself.

A family friend was telling us about what her husband shared about his experience in Broadview before he was deported back to Mexico. She's been sharing to friends and family because she's just in disbelief & horror what her husband told her. She wasn't able to talk to him until he was in Mexico.

Between anti trans campaign ads failing last night spectacularly and rep Seth Moulton walking back his anti trans rhetoric, it seems like the slide on support for trans people has been stopped for now. It's still precarious but this was the best possible night we could have had.

If yesterday taught us anything, it’s that you don’t know what’s viable or what’s possible til you at least try. We actually don’t have to take what we’re given. If enough of us get together and touch and agree we can do, create, and have better.

I wish I could show you all the joyous photos and videos being shared on Muslim and South Asian WhatsApp right now with people reacting to Mamdani's victory.
It's really beautiful and cathartic.
So many years of anti-Muslim bigotry, racism & hate.
And all those tears are now sugar for our chai.
