Remember when MAGA said Kamala was going to start a war?
The Pentagon has admitted that they don't have the evidence of actual drug-running to stop & arrest the people on boats- so they're just murdering them.
Now Trump wants to attack Venezuela- over drugs?
Of course not!

I found this a really illuminating thread on what demonstrations do and why they matter.
In social movement studies, we talk about how marches and protests expand the threshold of acceptable risk so that people take more and bigger social risks IN PUBLIC, EN MASSE. This is extremely important for the bourgeois white folks holding signs and building social rapport.
Not a shitpost: #NoKings is feel-good performative activism for comfortable mostly upper and upper middle class white folks and that’s good, actually. Millions of people in the streets protesting a fascist regime is good. It is good for the normie baseline to be massive displays of public dissent.

plastic sucks
Most plastics are not recyclable, largely because there is no market for materials labeled 3 through 7.
