Most Americans genuinely believe there's some grand overarching force that stops illegal things from happening. That's the truth. We think there's a Boss who says "I won't allow this" and are genuinely surprised when an illegal or unfair thing happens anyway.

Today would've been Marsha P. Johnson's 80th birthday. She spent her life advocating for LGBTQ people, youth experiencing homelessness, and people living with HIV.
Artist Osaze Akil Stigler honored Marsha with this panel as part of our Freedom to Be quilt on the National Mall earlier this year.

Wait so is it just like…..white people, facing any kind of adversity for the first time, have decided chaos and mass death is the only answer to solving that? Cause, I mean, yeah of course that’s where they’d go with this.

Recent-ish research in political science identified the concept of some people having a "need for chaos," which is also correlated with anti-democratic attitudes. Wouldn't be surprised if this is the case for some of these folks' as well.

transphobia is a fundamental tenet of fascism, so if a political party accepts transphobes in their ranks they are contributing to the normalization of fascism no matter how progressive the party otherwise claims to be

People in wheelchairs are getting arrested right now in the Russell Senate Office Building in DC. They showed up to tell Congress not to cut their Medicaid, because they cant afford health care without it. If you look closely you can see the zip ties on their hands. #WeWontGetOverLosingMedicaid

my wife googled “united airlines customer service” the other day and the AI summary seemed legit enough so she called the number that it listed. she got like 30 seconds into the call before they were asking for her BANK INFO. a scammer had gotten their number prominent enough that the AI grabbed it.
