I am harping on this I know. But I am still bitter over the rush to demonize the left, trans folks, social justice groups, anything and everything not MAGA during the last 2 shootings. Now, what is this I hear? Fucking crickets.
A photo of the alleged Mormon church killer wearing a Trump 2020 shirt saying "Make Liberals Cry Again." The caption is: "MAGA is in stunned silence this morning after a photo has emerged of yesterday's suspected Michigan church shooter wearing a Trump 2020 shirt with the words "Make Liberals Cry Again" on it. Can we hear an equal fervor about violent rhetoric on the right now?

Hey, another white guy with a hard-on for guns shooting up people. Oh, hey, here's his truck. Commence the countdown to Republicans doing somersaults to pin this on the "leftists." Ten, nine, eight.... It will only be more fun if they can somehow invade a city while they're at it.

The hypocrisy is real. And, let's face it, the only creed these MAGAts believe in is patriarchal, christofascist white supremacy, and a cultish craving for a Dear Leader/Daddy figure. @tommorelloofficial.bsky.social
A tweet from Tom Morello: I'd like to to thank all the 2nd Amendment loving patriots who are caravanning towards Chicago right now to defend the people against a Tyrannical Federal Government that's declared war on a U.S. city!! Thank you for putting aside the racism & white supremacy that has kept you from stepping up until now! Big Government Thugs wanna "tread on" the people! Now's your time to stop them. Like you talk about.

Learn your history, kids. Again, all the love to those in DC out on the street resisting. going to start investigating ways to get prepared here in NYC.
From moni_artist: "The road to the Tulsa massacre was also paved with Yt supremacists perpetuating the idea that they needed to take over a thriving Black city because of "crime."

Everything sucks, truly. We are beyond a slide into authoritarianism, we are in the shallow waters of it. But NYC resisting the same-old corrupt, broken-down, power-hungry white men is a spirit I can get behind and a thing lifted my spirits on my walk home tonight.N

Bright yellow, round sticker on a green NYC park bench that says: Your grandpa fought Nazis, now it's your turn. Bright yellow, round sticker on a green NYC park bench that says: Billionaires don't need tax breaks. Bright yellow, round sticker on a green NYC park bench that says: Have your grocery bills gone down? A view of a bench along a sidewalk with trees and many other benches in the distance. On the one in the foreground, you can see the yellow sticker, but not read what it says.
