"an attack on democracy", says minister who ignores an entire demographic and instead listens to people who want to eliminate said demographic.
Repeated criminal damage to vital medical care is unfair to trans people and an attack on democracy, Wes.

Look if a man had recently become a bipartisan folk hero for allegedly killing a CEO for denying people healthcare...I'm not sure my opening salvo would be voting to strip a large chunk of a gun toting population of healthcare. That's just me though.

The billionaires can only be stopped by a united working class, and the realisation that we will have to destroy capitalism entirely. We cannot survive the future without smashing the concept of capitalism so firmly that it can never arise again.

The time for half measures is long past.
Listen, Broligarchy is not some cute synonym for oligarchy. It's genuinely different & WAY more dangerous.

I'm a sociologist who's been studying the ultra-rich globally for 17 yrs, entering their world as an offshore wealth mgr. Published 2 books abt them.

🧵Broligarchs are distinct in 3 ways:
There’s a sort of Trump apologist, a relatively small but loud subset, who probably don’t realize or intend to be, but are so attached to a previous hyperbolic claim that they deny anything important changed.

-US was already an oligarchy
-US was already fascist
-Biden gave Israel a blank check

Just a line to express solidarity with Dr Upton who has had the courage to face down her critics in Scotland.

I know that she has the support of her work colleagues.

Her stand is important for all trans employees and their use of gender-appropriate facilities, to which they have every right.

Today in Milan, a student activist group hung a trash-filled effigy of Musk upside down on a gate outside of piazzale Loreto, where Mussolini's body was displayed in 1945.
They left the message: "C'è sempre posto a piazzale Loreto, Elon" (There's always room in piazzale Loreto, Elon)
