Mamdani: For too long, those fluent in the good grammar of civility have deployed decorum to mask agendas of cruelty
Hell fucking yes. Genuinely, unironically, down with civility in politics.
So much of the rhetoric around parents demanding obedience from their children is implicitly them saying, “I could have let you die when you were an infant, and I didn’t, so you owe me everything.” It’s a twisted and sick mindset that sees children as property.
Our kids cannot consent to be given life; they owe us nothing. It’s not in the contract of being our kids.
It IS in the contract of deciding to create and/or keep them that we will love them. Regardless of anything they do.

You can’t just talk about how the police should be better. You have to defund the police. You can’t just say that you hope nobody will ever pick up one of the loaded guns you have laying around. You have to get rid of them. Excellent @hamiltonnolan.bsky.social

Also seeing a lot of law fetishizing libs on here saying the 2A will protect people who defend themselves from ICE. This is terrible advice, and it’s either just more baby brained liberal nonsense or these people are Feds trying to incite violence.

The lawless and fascists thugs, many of whom would likely do harm to me because I’m gay, should really be better trained. Way to go Pete, thanks for living up to expectations.
@petebuttigieg.bsky.social: "We have an ICE agent who should have been trained not to be in front of a vehicle and never to shoot into a moving vehicle, and yet this happened on [Kristi Noem's] watch. The whole POINT of Homeland Security is to make this country more stable and safe."

I’m losing my mind at the number of Dems on here saying things like “Trump can’t cancel elections because the rules say he can’t!” Completely divorced from reality, totally unhinged, childish and immature thinking.

I just have to say before I pass out that harm reduction is not when other people give up their rights for an unspecified period of time so you can be safe.
Also using that term or alluding to it to justify voting for fascist Democrats is something that should fill a person with unfathomable shame

Voting isn’t going to stop this.
The Minneapolis pastor had observed "ICE agents circling a young woman who appeared to be Hispanic" and insisted they take him instead of harassing her. An agent then “came, got in my face, pointed a gun at me, and said, ‘Are you afraid now?’” trib.al/k06XIZQ

Fashion writer opines that the problem with the Nazi militia killing citizens is a lack of training. People rightly respond that the problem isn’t training, it’s Nazis. Writer engages in disingenuous idpol, and libs continue to be libs.
You have no idea what it's like to live in this situation your entire life. I don't need you to scold about "errmm maybe you should have phrased it such-and-such way?" while you enjoy the privilege of being able to apply for benefits, walk past cops, and do whatever else without fear of deportation

I just can’t with these fucking people anymore. Every fucking time there’s a crisis, they have to remind everyone they’re the smartest fucking people in the room by telling us that it’s not possible to stop bad things.

At this point, the bare minimum for me to even CONSIDER voting Dem in 26 and 28 is prosecution and imprisonment of every single person in this admin, and not just the top level, rank and file too. These people need to spend the rest of their lives in a dark hole.

Looking forward to being told by liberals why President Newsom or Harris or Buttigieg or whoever just has to keep controlling this oil because golly gee whiz it sure would be hard to stop
BREAKING: The U.S. Secretary of Energy says that the United States intends to control Venezuelan oil, including overseeing the sale of the country’s oil production “indefinitely.”

Yep. And “online is bad, go use heroin” is a pretty fucking irresponsible thing to say, especially when saying it ON AN ONLINE PLATFORM with a large following,

Fascists are very concerned for "children" as a class but not for any specific person who happens to belong to it. This apparent contradiction is not hypocrisy. It is the logic of the capitalist.

Lmfao, do you understand that when Mamdani calls out decorum being used to cover up cruelty, he is 1000% talking about someone like Obama
To be fair, I haven't heard a politician speak with such high vernacular since Obama

Any good left wing posters on BlueSky, or do I have to make to do with the “progressives” desperately trying to convince people that Kamala Harris is actually totally popular and very liked.

Seems to me that the main reason people are upset about this is it’s the typical lib tactic of saying/believing what right wingers think but it’s not racist because they have a chart proving it
Homelessness increased primarily because of immigration (lots of people came to the US without setting up housing).
