"If Walz fights this, Trump will invoke the Insurrection Act/send in the Marines!"

And then they'll start shooting people. You know, like what's happening now.

If you can't fight back against fascists because fascism will happen, the battle is already over and you lost.

“don’t give them what they want”

they are manufacturing their justifications post-hoc. they are already doing what they want. you are not responsible for the actions of your oppressor. you are only responsible for keeping your neighbors safe and that will always be seen as defiance

If we ever get out of this, I hope the lives of those responsible are ruined. I hope peace doesn’t come to people who supported or participated in this. I hope for no forgiveness for anyone who supported this. I hope for shame, loneliness and pain for them.

A decade of trans advocacy has taught me people believe lies because they want to, not because they don't know they are lies. They believe trans people will regret our transition because they want us to regret our transition. They believe we are a "social contagion" because that is how they see us

I think maybe a lot of bad things could be avoided if the worlds most obvious crooks faced some sort of punishment other than “accumulating great sums of money and power”

I’m going to keep hammering this point: the excesses of ICE we see now are entirely contiguous with our system of policing more broadly, and the reason that almost no politician wants to threaten real consequences for ICE agents is because it opens the door to making the same demands of the cops

It’s easier to say “Reagan was the problem” than the underlying system of capitalism that tends toward imperialism and monopoly is the problem because you can still imagine it could have been avoided on a long term time scale without changing the underlying economy

if youre going to protest, please wear safety gear and be prepared to be violently assaulted by cops. they will pick people out of a crowd who look easy to brutalize and go after them; they did this in pdx in 2020 to reporters who showed up to in civilian garb to avoid being mistaken as protestors

These barbarians are destroying everything that makes society work. Kids can't go to school, patients can't go to the hospital. We are, in effect, paying them to wreck the basic infrastructure of the country

what's happening now is the inevitable result of capitalism, which is fundamentally incompatible with democracy over the long term and must always devolve into fascism when its mandate to concentrate wealth reaches a critical threshold

Too many people are trying to differentiate between ICE and police.

I will hold your hand as I say this:

Police in the US treat marginalized people the way ICE treats everyone. They're far more similar than you want to admit.

Defunding the police and abolishing ICE are the same fight.

hey you all need to understand that your politicians have no intention whatsoever of protecting you
Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey says 29 people were arrested in downtown last night during a noise demonstration at a hotel reportedly housing ICE agents: "For those that are taking the bait and causing property damage or otherwise, there are consequences. We're holding the line here all the way."

Authoritarians use performative lying to mark who is for, and more importantly, against their regimes.

The point isn’t determining truth. The point is creating an ingroup whose loyalty is assured through ritually denying reality and an easily recognizable outgroup that refuses the delusion.
The shooting is shocking enough but the government's response is off the charts when you consider that this incident is forensically documented on video.

Your reminder that what happened to Renee Nicole Good is something that happens regularly in America. This is not new, but it is an expanded version of militarized people targeting Black people in particular.

From ICE detention to murder with impunity, we've been doing it. Now it's broadened.

1. Fighting fascism isn't something you effectively do by posting a request for someone else to plan an action or by commiserating on social media. There's a reason activists and organizers need lawyers like me who provide pro bono legal support.

Trans people would much rather be able to live openly and freely as our authentic selves than be able to say "we told you so," but it looks like "we told you so" is all we're going to fucking get. 😒
Yet ANOTHER “trans people predicted this 10 years ago” moment.

The far right used trans people as a wedge in exactly the same way, and have now moved on to rights-stripping cis women, just like we said they would.

Every “gender-critical” transphobe is responsible for this…
Why decline all these chances to defend feminism? Because to participate would be accepting the premise that our rights and humanity are up for debate in the first place.

Once you’ve conceded that it’s reasonable to ask whether women’s equality was a mistake, you’ve already lost.
