And a bone-deep understanding of the patterns and shapes that destroy this world because they are natural consequences of our shadows and must be wrestled or they will roam free and wreak their havoc upon civilization. The violence we don't have to see

If you want to be besties with the WH figure out how to do something they like or have to do anyway, but reroute as much of that money as possible back into the greedy little pockets that pointed the money stream at you

*Latest tragedy* won't make Maga care and won't make everyone else realize we have to actually stop these people.

Cigarettes, oil, insurance, cars, advertising, social media, fast food, etc. Industry after industry chipping away until there are no functional corrective structures or institutions left and Donald Trump can stumble into the christo-fascist autocracy.

10/10 Pride month cover. Our country is as bad as it is because we keep letting evil destroy good.
Dr King didn't choose to retire
Brother Malcolm didn't decide we achieved equality
The Black Panthers didn't decide black communities no longer needed food & medicine

When any of us suffer, we all do.

I grew up in 4H shooting sports learning about firearm safety and community service. We didn't get NRA funding and it always seemed to me it was because we put children before firearms. The NRA went from a sportsman's club to a manufacturers' lobby some fifty years ago.

They don't give a shit
