Can we support immigrants’ right to be in this country without valorizing and normalizing their exploitation? “They keep the cost of produce low…”, “They do jobs no one else wants to do…” They deserve living wages and good working conditions as much as anyone else

Ever wonder why so many corporations, businesses owners and politicians who previously pandered to progressives were so quick to get on board with Trump? It’s almost as if their core motives were secretly in alignment the whole time 🤔

If you’re only now freaking out about the crises facing immigrants, lgbt, poor, poc, disabled, etc. please recognize the majority in these communities have been in crisis forever. It’s not the sudden dissolution of civil society, it’s the disillusion that it was ever civil to begin with

Fun fact - ICE has jurisdiction 100 miles inland from any border OR coastline. 2/3 Americans live under its jurisdiction. They also have different federal powers than local police, so know your rights

TIL about “aspie supremacy” and its association with wwii Germany. Musk’s choice to continue identifying with Asperger’s over a decade after its removal from the DSM, instead of ASD, adds a whole other context to his “tick” at the inauguration

With all the exec orders and new legislation yesterday, there’s a lesson from MLK thats being forgotten. Be willing to Break The Fucking Law. Help someone cross state lines for an abortion. Help a trans person get the care they’re denied. Help hide the immigrant who’s about to be deported. #BTFL
