They've also had time to redact and alter and morph the files...all while more than 8 Senate Democrats scheme to perpetuate the status quo and fan a smokescreen.

That said, we cannot give in. We cannot alleviate the pressure even a hair. The arc will be a long one before it bends to justice. /end

More on the short-lived Canadian Reconstruction Party:

a pledge to youth,
a system of public works, including the completion of the Trans-Canada Highway,
a national housing program; and
Fed taxes managed by auditors who'd work w/ local govs to divide returns on an "equitable and agreeable basis"

People are far too disillusioned with this two-party system...there HAS to be another option that doesn't sound like the other two. We have to get progressives on board. If you start throwing the word socialist around, people have a collective meltdown.

Perfection

I mean seriously, someone has to start the ball rolling and @blackazizanansi.blacksky.app just did that

I'll do a call and response for reading out the Constitution at protests, and as colonial as it all is, there is something powerful in the words

I have no doubt it'll take years. Decades. Time we don't have...but I've already resolved myself to this being a lifelong fight. I can't afford to do anything else, because things won't change if we accept anything less than what we want.

Hang in there 🩵

This is an opportunity to pull folk further left. We know from the popularity of AOC and Mamdani and progressive candidates who run on-message that THAT is the future we are seeking.

The system is inherently broken. It'll take a lot of blood, sweat, and tears to fix it. We're not done yet. /end

This isn't trying to find a silver lining. This is just staring at what we knew to be always true, because time and again, we get these performative bullshit and noise and then caving. We knew there'd be a sucker punch. But we'll be right back in the ring. /2

Remember when Chuckles pulled this shit in the Spring? People thought fascism had won then, too. Did you imagine that we'd see a Muslim immigrant lining up to bring New York into the future? No we did not.

Dust off, my beauties. This will hurt. We knew it would! But we're not fucking done. /end
