The media framing #charliekirk as a political activist does a massive disservice to the american people. He was a white supremacist who fought to strip us of our rights. Activists fight for progressive change that expands our rights. Do not let the media whitewash his image! #mediacorruption

I don’t have a lot of sympathy for very wealthy, privileged people who are capitulating to fascism and/or staying silent because they’re “scared.” People are being dragged out of their homes and people who could be next are *still* speaking up. Silence won’t protect you but it emboldens them

This is much bigger than releasing the files at this point. The complicity of the government and the blatant corruption calls for more than just demanding they concede what they're all implicated in. Their true interests are exposed, and everyone can see it. Talk to your friends, family & coworkers!

Surveillance of every facet of our lives continues to build. With the current political situation the reason could not be clearer: to stop out any and all resistance to the coming smashing of democracy. These tactics are antithetical to democracy, and mass action is the only way to resist. #fascism

Mangione's trial and the media surrounding it presumed him guilty before a verdict. His case displays the ruling classes attempt to make an example of those who act out, even if the accused is innocent. We deserve better than a propaganda circus! #freeluigi #mangionetrial

just so we're clear about what happened today the vice president of the united states of america is encouraging all the right wing nutjobs out there to go on doxxing rampages against american citizens

Major outlets, corporations, and the US government are (and have been!) showing their true colors. The fallacy of "freedom" in a "democracy" comes to this: we are only as free as the ruling class permits. They will sooner take our "freedom" away than lose profits.

"First they came for the Communists..."

Under the banner of cracking down on "liberal" groups, real opposition groups to the ruling class will be infiltrated, surveilled, and broken up. Democracy is crumbling before our eyes, at the hands of the elite. #fascism

There was never a chance for unity. Fascists need an enemy to blame so that they can further their agenda. Democrats and Liberal media are wasting their time enabling fascists by uniting on Kirk being a "martyr" or "activist". Don't fall for any of their tricks!

Special thanks to all the worms in politics and media who tried to sell us “universally beloved saint Charlie Kirk” over the last few days. Sorry you failed but 1) not nearly as many people know him as you thought / hoped 2) he was deeply racist, like on a KKK level, and that’s kinda off-putting

The real threats to democracy and free speech are these fascists. They want to restrict the ability of grassroots organizations to protect their communities. De-platforming fascists and calling out enablers in the media is the only way forward! #deplatformfascists #grassroots #mediacorruption
Stephen Miller: "The last message that Charlie Kirk gave to me before he joined his creator in heaven was he said that we have to dismantle and take on the radical left organizations in this country that are fomenting violence. That was the last message that he sent me ... we are gonna do that."

MAGA blamed immigrants, trans people, the left, and Democrats for Charlie Kirk’s murder.

Crickets when they found out Tyler Robinson is a lily-white Mormon from a gun-loving Republican family.

Funny how that works, huh?!

This is simply untenable. There is no way forward with media and political classes captured by the right. Every time someone commits a crime you have to pray it's not an undesirable or it's purge time, then when it turns out to be themselves again they just shrug and wait for the next one.

the wsj coverage of the shooter might be one of the worst and most irresponsible handlings of a story i’ve witnessed in the last 10 years

Not that WSJ actually cares or would learn anything but I think people should flood every post they make from now on with demands for an apology to trans people for throwing them under the bus then immediately doing this sickening garbage with nothing in between.

This article is SHAMEFUL! With new evidence implying the shooter was in ultra-nationalist spaces led by Nick Fuentes, this article exposes itself as a hateful assumption (most likely confirmation bias!), and will continue to spread hate against the trans and queer community. #speakout #transrights

When will trans and queer people get an apology for the hate and doxing they've gone through due to the media outlets like the WSJ throwing harmful speculations around insinuating some connection between the trans community and this assassination? We DEMAND an APOLOGY! #WSJ #mediacorruption
