We must always take sides. Neutrality helps the oppressor, never the victim. Silence encourages the tormentor, never the tormented. - Elie Wiesel, Nobel Laureate and Holocaust Survivor

Boycotts are effective.
Boycotts must have a demand.
We are boycotting Target because they bent to bigotry. Target’s foot traffic is down 10% since we called for a boycott.
We will continue to boycott until our demands are met.
We will keep organizing.

Center and Center Left governments better learn a lesson from what’s happening to America.
People will vote for fascism when they feel the government won’t do anything about issues from immigration other than pretend they don’t exist.

His mother called him “little valentine” and so he chose to celebrate on Valentine’s Day.

The world needs a platform where people who disagree can have a real discussion.

The problem is you assume they want to "engage and have reals discussions on real issues." They don't. When confronted with facts, data, science, actual laws, and the like, they resort to spewing lies, disinformation and hate.

The original fascist movement in the U.S. was also named America First.
One of their main arguments: America is a republic, not a democracy.
This phrase, in addition to being wrong (democracy and republicanism are not mutually exclusive) is designed to normalize autocracy.
