Lots of folks captioning aurora photos like "for a few minutes we didn't think about politics"

I found out recently about Ezra Klein’s book Abundance. And I could not be more filled with rage and frustration at liberalism and the Democratic party establishment embracing “what if we just did Reaganomics 2.0” NOW OF ALL TIMES.

“Democratic socialists” and “lgbt” both being 80% means every dem candidate needs to be both a socialist and to unequivocally support trans rights thanks.

I don’t want to hear anymore “Portland is dying” narrative or vague complaints about “ANTIFA” as the clarion call for action in the city. All of that led to Trump targeting us. Groups like People for Portland, associated right-wing media ecosystem, and political opportunists own this.

The way people talk about this tax you'd think it is crushing the middle class but the people who in the true "just over the threshold so it looks like a lot but shit is expensive so they still feel a pinch" class are paying very, very small amounts toward PFA.

the intensity of my anger at those who would criminalize the homeless — a population literally created by the greed and callousness of the ruling class — is very hard to contain. it was you who dismantled the safety net. if you don’t like the results, put it back
