At the core of all forms of bigotry and autocracy is misogyny. Never forget this.

Usefull information for everyone. If you're sitting down and not participating in the violence they have no reason to arrest you. And if they do arrest you, the charges will not stick.

State Rep @jamestalarico.bsky.social gives a master class in Republican hypocrisy 🔥 The Texas House passed the Ten Commandments bill in an 82-46 vote… on the Sabbath, breaking the Fourth Commandment in the process.

can you imagine if someone said this about any other demographic?

The mad king is also too stupid to know the very simple fact of English that there is no apostrophe in the plural. If he can't speak proper English, why is he discriminating against others who speak other languages?
