Class warfare is when there’s a limit to what poor & disabled people can earn before losing their benefits, but no limit to what billionaires can hoard while avoiding taxes.
We must reject the twisted idea that money incentivizes the rich but poverty incentivizes the poor.

Anyway, it's not an echo chamber, it's a neighborhood cookout in my backyard. Everyone's invited and welcome, but the second you act like a shithead to me or our neighbors, I throw you over the fence into the gully.

Rule of thumb: when you reach the point where you are convinced you have annoyed everybody with your relentless self-promotion, about 5% of your audience is starting to suspect you might have written a book

Remember: fascism thrives on apathy.
The autocrats want you to tune out. They want to overwhelm you. They want you to give up.
Don’t give them want they want.
Stay in this fight. Remain vigilant. And let’s keep building.

Christians of good intentions need to accept the fact that the signs and symbols of Christianity now represent a genuine menace and a credible threat of violence to all the kinds of people Jesus told followers to serve. The cross once again represents only a tool of authoritarian torture and death.

"[My friend] really regrets not being more vocal at her church. She thought that wouldn't be acceptable there. But then she found out it really was, and she said people were not scared to talk about Trump, but they were scared to talk about Harris." -Base white woman, PA
