Some people are assholes.
Some people are flaming assholes.
And then there's Donald Trump.

AN INJURY TO ONE IS AN INJURY TO ALL!

If I am not for myself, who will be?
If I am only for myself, what am I?
And if not now, when?

@deanobeidallah.bsky.social asks for a vision of the future. We need a socialist vision that unites workers, farmers, and ranchers into a movement that replaces production for profit with production for need. A vision and movement that adopts the slogan, "An injury to one is an injury to all."

@msignorile.bsky.social RFK Jr is a danger but even a blind squirrel finds a nut. The Food Pyramid is from the USDA, not the FDA. Nutrition studies based on epidemiolocal data are notoriously bad. Please talk to a nutrition scientist who advocates meat over refined starches for an alternative view.

@cortezmasto.senate.gov Thanks a lot for voting to take away my Social Security and Medicare, services YOU will NEVER have to rely on. You should resign NOW.

@deanobeidallah.bsky.social You don't bring down the debt by cutting programs that help the working class, farmers, and ranchers. You do it by increasing taxes on the ruling class. It's just that simple. And I bet that rancher might agree.

Instead of walking out in solidarity with Al Green, you vote to censure him? You are the reason so many people HATE the Democratic Party. If you can't stand up for your own colleague, how can you stand up for us? Answer: You won't.
March 6, 2025 at 9:25 PM
@repmoskowitz.bsky.social So you voted to censure your colleague Al Green? Pathetic. Spineless. Feeble. You, sir, are part of the problem. Get the hell out of the way. A real man would have walked out in solidarity with Green, not vote to censure him. What a shanda.

As of today, a new term has entered our language. A “rubio” is a spineless lump of nothing. Example: Don’t be such a rubio.

"Dear guests, I am an old man. I was in the ghetto. I looked the devil in the eye. I tell the democratic world: don’t be afraid of him. You give too much power to evil. If you stand together and overcome your fear, you can defeat the devil."

When Trump lifts sanctions on Russia, we'll know that the realignment of U.S. imperialism towards an emerging Fascist International will be clear to all.

@deanobeidallah.bsky.social "Justice, justice shall you pursue, that you may thrive on the land the Lord has promised." (Duet. 16:20) This is the heart of the Covenant. The radical settlers (and their supporters) are unjust and no longer carry the Covenant. Their claim is null and void.

I fear the development of a new Fascist International. Dark days ahead, especially for Ukraine and Europe as a whole.

@hartmannreport.com Student protestors, and their faculty supporters, have been expelled. Shapiro in PA called them antisemites, even though Jews were disproportionately represented, even among the organizers. Pro-Palestinian protestors are now threatened with deportation. People are afraid.
