I’m twisted. (Okay, I have severe scoliosis, so…that explains PART of it.) I’m a liberal, a mom, an animal lover, a fan of the planet, believer in science, and not a supporter of organized religion.

Look up!
Post by PERFECT UNION U.S. billionaires reached a record breaking $7.6 trillion in wealth as of September 2025, an increase of $4.7 trillion in the less than eight years. Most of that wealth hasn't been taxed and won't be taxed under our current system. Response post by The Serfs @theserfstv This is why everything sucks. It's not trans people. It's not immigrants. You are being robbed blind before your eyes and those same people also own all the tech and media networks to tell you that the cause is not them

We’re (almost) all victims of the algorithmic echo chamber.

For the record: bad people can say decent things but that doesn’t make them decent — and good people can say bad things but, because they’re good, they usually apologize.
One thing that has become really clear since yesterday is that we live in at least two different realities. Talking to a friend who only knew Charlie as a Christian motivational speaker because that's all that ever came across her feed. Showed me videos l've never seen before of him saying perfectly reasonable and empowering things. I showed her videos she'd never seen before of his racism, misogyny, homophobia, advocating for violence against specific groups of people. She was horrified by his remarks about Pelosi's husband's attacker being bailed out and celebrated for his violent act. She was horrified by a number of things that he said, but she had never seen or heard them before, the same as I had never seen or heard the generalized clips of him sounding like a perfectly nice loving man and father. Neither of us had a whole picture of this man. I mentioned he was a known white supremacist and she thought I was joking. She talked about him giving a speech about finding your purpose and doing good in the world and I thought she was joking.

Believe the victims, not the criminals: release the Epstein files!
Pic of Epstein survivors with the quote: "PLEASE DON'T FORGET THAT THESE INCREDIBLY BRAVE AND STRONG WOMEN WERE ONCE CHILDREN. THESE STORIES ARE ABOUT CHILDREN." Pic of a page from the Epstein birthday book with crudely drawn young girls receiving balloons in a frame marked 1983 then another frame marked 2003 with young women in bikinis massaging a man.

Some of Charlie Kirk’s great takes.

Oh and don’t forget how he said if his 10-year-old daughter was raped and impregnated he’d insist that she carry the baby to term. He was a POS but better ignored than martyred.
-Gay people should be stoned to death -Most people are scared when they see a black pilot flying a plane -Taylor Swift should reject feminism and submit to her husband -No one should be allowed to retire -Leftists should not be allowed to move to red states -British Colonialism was what "made the world decent" -The guy who assaulted the Pelosi's should be bailed out -Religious freedom should be terminated -Multiple black politicians "stole white people's spots" -MLK Jr was "an awful person" -The Great Replacement Theory is reality -Hydroxychloroquine cures COVID -Vaccine requirements are "medical apartheid" -Guns deaths are acceptable in order to have a 2nd amendment -Women's natural place is under their husband's control -Parents should prevent their daughters from taking birth control -George Floyd had it coming, the Jan 6th protestors didn't -The 1964 Civil Rights Act was a "huge mistake" -Encouraged parents to protest mask mandates -Mamdani winning in NY is a travesty because Muslims did 9/11 -Muslims only come to America to destabilize Western Civilization -Palestine "doesn't exist" and those who support it are like the KKK

Never forget
Just in case you forgot what he said. "I did try and fuck her. She was married. I moved on her like a bitch, but I couldn't get there. And she was married. Then all of a sudden I see her, she's now got the big phony tits and everything. She's totally changed her look. I've gotta use some Tic Tacs, just in case I start kissing her. You know I'm automatically attracted to beautiful — I just start kissing them. It's like a magnet. Just kiss. I don't even wait. And when you're a star they let you do it. You can do anything... Grab them by the pussy. You can do anything. - The President of The United States of America

Speaking of pedophiles and s3x*al assault, here’s a reminder:
Picture of post: “To all teen girls: if you are ever being followed or hit on by a strange man when you are in public, walk toward an older woman you see and say loudly, "Mom! A strange guy is hassling me. He won't leave me alone." Every one of us has been there. We will be there for you.”
