On the forefront of a new reality.

Notes from my past self. Sometimes, rarely, I'll have a joke.
System of a Down's Chop Suey! hits harder than ever right now. Them people of Gaza could be the perfect example of "Angels" who some openly state "deserve to die". Granted, I could be entirely misinterpreting like those MAGA fools blaring Rage Against the Machine. Am i the fool?

I've been watching a lot of Prof jiang. This video describing asymmetrical Warfare is so important to watch right now. Essentially a country with military dominance, even with an iron dome, will lose a war against a poorer country like Iran because of capitalism. Because of value asymmetry.

It's going to be like AI generates a false conflict on some social media platform. Then it generates content of people reacting to that conflict. People love conflict therefore real humans will like and share. Successfully altering reality.

Any rowdiness you see on the streets is strictly a result of police and ICE violence. The onus is on ICE to cease what they are doing and let people live their lives. Mothers, fathers, and children are being taken away to God knows where. If you haven't already, choose your principles and values now

You are what you eat, but also you are what you think. And what you think is influenced by what you observe. What you think is influenced by your environment. If you were on a goat farm, you'd be a goat farmer. And likely you'd be happier than you are now.

Lemme point out that many MAGA women say women can't be president because they're "indecisive"....can we calm it with the tariff switching?

what would it take for us to do a citizens arrest of those criminals Trump and Musk?
How many of us would it take to be 'official' in making a citizen's arrest? And in this case, I'm not sure we need to actually see the 2 of them commit the crimes because the crimes have already been committed. Who can help with this? Get your copies of the Constitution out and let's make a list!

As Trump tries to dismantle the Department of Education, remember that his plan to cut the corporate tax rate to 15% would give the 100 largest corporations a tax cut larger than the entire department's K-12 budget.

Really think about how twisted this all is.

Citizen's arrest on Musk and Trump.

Hiding from their constituents wasn’t enough — now we have a House Republican admitting that he doesn’t want to hear from the people he represents.

These big babies will all be back home next week for recess. Let’s keep making the GOP squirm. Join our nationwide organizing: indivisible.org/muskorus

I've been thinking this a lot. Musk and Trump are obviously breaking the law. Clearly attacking the institutions that we've put in place to provide oversight into their dealings. Not only do we need to perform a citizen's arrest on them, but we need to seize their assets and redistribute afterwards.
As an American citizen, can't I do a citizen's arrest for Musk and maybe even the Orange One? I would go to Washington to do this. Maybe we all should.

I keep saying that if you are waiting around looking for the next protest organizer, the next person standing up and taking action, you need to stop waiting and looking.

Because you're it.

You're the one.

Nobody else is coming to save us. We're it.

Nobody has ever beat authoritarianism by standing back and waiting patiently for the authoritarians to take themselves down.

We must organize everywhere to rebuild a pro-democracy majority.

There are people with huge platforms that aren't saying anything. You'd do yourself well to unfollow those people

SEIZE THEIR ASSETS
Trump has dropped or halted more than 1 in 5 investigations and enforcement actions against corporate lawbreakers. 

At least 34 of those companies — including Tesla, Amazon, and Wells Fargo — gave over $34M to Trump's inaugural. 

It's a new Golden Age for corporate criminals.

Mutual aid is the ultimate anti-capitalist act. The people ruining this country are rewarded for their shittiness in capitalism.
The next bit is gonna be bananas as the monkeys continue their poop flinging form of governance.
You control your space. Your neighbor controls their's. Build bridges. Support each other. Take over the street, the neighborhood, the community.
People of all stripes are hurting. Help each other.

A friend included this anti-acknowledgement section on her PhD thesis. She also added the proposition: “Systematic bullying and undermining of girls and women in STEM starts early on and is the reason why they do not stay in science and related fields.”
Absurd we still need to go through this
