Feral deviant anarchist Fury. Elected to local government office in 2023. The religious right trained me to be a political weapon, now I'm aimed at them. Jack of all arts, but master of one: I'm the composer-pianist sometimes known as Daughter of Chopin.

Alito's decision in the Montgomery County schools case isn't even disguised homophobia. He outright states that the presence of queer and trans teachers and books is coercing children into accepting us as normal, which he finds unconstitutional.

The thing is that I, a person in the world, "present as settled matter" my right to dignity and basic respect despite it being "a hotly contested view" and I refuse to do otherwise

Every word of this is depraved beyond belief. ICE abducted a six year old with leukemia, threatened him with a gun such that he wet himself, and has denied him medical treatment. I don’t know what to say. www.tpr.org/border-immig...

The Supremes, continuing their wrecking-ball approach to jurisprudence, have just ruled that lower, district court judges --which have issued dozens of nationwide injunctions stopping Trump policies, including on key trans issues -- can longer do so. @rikiwilchins.bsky.social

Youth pastor voice: You know who else took on a globally important leadership role at the age of 33?

nyt op-ed: we cannot normalize the left’s brazen attempt to win voters by talking to them

Folks can argue about the relevancy of the “Democratic socialist” label all day. But if that’s what you’re hung up on, you’re missing the larger point. People aren’t chasing labels. They’re chasing change. Real, structural, unapologetic change. 🧵

‪ So much has happened to Baha since our last interview that we did another, reflecting how much worse the situation in Gaza has got. kentandsurreybylines.co.uk/global/world... @mommunism.bsky.social @lillywachowski.bsky.social @alexwinter.com

The most important part of republican fascism is the demand you must be nice to them.

Was drunkenly talking the other day about the history of "homophobia" and how it's always ultimately boiled down to a hatred and distrust of men becoming feminised. Of men becoming un-manned through sex. Misogyny repackaged for a masculine target.

Thanks to @willbunch.bsky.social for the extremely generous shout-out (and for his great piece on the stakes of the NYC mayoral primary): www.inquirer.com/columnists/a...

Wild to think that everyone could be free and happy and their true selves and have a basic income and healthcare and have their needs understood and met by society and not be displaced or killed and instead we’re choosing this

J.K. Rowling is a menace to society whose anti-trans rhetoric is violent and encourages offline violence. Her telling people to take pictures of suspected trans women in bathrooms and disseminate them is sexual harassment. And it puts everyone in the women’s bathroom in danger.

If you plan to visit the US, don't. It is not safe to visit the US and you face being randomly detained, kidnapped, beaten, and / or killed by the regime. It's not worth the trip. Stay home.

I have said this for years. THEY DO NOT ACTUALLY CARE EXCEPT TO USE CRIME AS A TALKING POINT to bash people they hate.

Republican women would rather die than admit they were wrong on abortion bans. It's mind boggling. www.independent.co.uk/news/world/a...

Things are looking pretty bleak right now. Here’s some positivity: You have far more power than you believe. The capitalist class that controls everything doesn’t make society function, you do. If you stop doing what they want, they’re fucked. Money is pretend, it has value because WE say it does

Dual power baby Moreover, ICE must be destroyed

So, it turns out we're treating fascism just like we've been treating climate change: – ignore warnings of experts – buy into bullshit "alternative explanations" - read "don't worry" media op-eds – deny it will really be that bad – start seeing major evidence – hope somebody does something

Avoid the violence/nonviolence debate. It’s a trap. The only thing that matters is what actions lead to more justice and less harm. Inaction and complicity in the face of brutal oppression is the worst form of violence. Never forget it.

On March 31st 2024, Lune carried out a solo protest on Trans day of visibility in Singapore. She has been charged under the public order act, her case is ongoing. She raising money for legal defence / fine. gogetfunding.com/help-lune-de...

You have no obligation to defend or explain the behavior of random street protesters. We have a lawless government that is flagrantly violating its legal, moral, even philosophical obligations to us. Everything else is secondary

As Trump plans mass deployments of ICE in Chicago, a car just sped through a group of protesters. I was at the Federal Plaza protest. It was PEACEFUL. This violence and chaos are what Trump, his masked thugs, and the people who support mass deportations stand for.

Everything that’s happened over the past six months has been a response to an imaginary crisis. There is no immigrant invasion. No trade crisis. No scientific or governance crisis. Just people completely high off their own supply trying to fundamentally reorder society. None of this had to happen.

One of the reasons I do the ICE must be destroyed tags was the memory from OccupyICE of how you can hear people yelling from inside the detention facilities. One of the most horrible things in the entire world it all must go Moreover, ICE must be destroyed

There is no bigger story right now than the White House asserting that California residents are in a state "of rebellion against the authority of the Government of the United States."

ICE is a criminal organization willfully carrying out illegal orders and the people of California are right to resist this. respect to the fighters and power to the people

I don't care if these monstrous ICE raids are a "federal operation". This is authoritarian violence, plain and simple. Just because Stephen Miller has kidnapping quotas for brown people he doesn't want to see on the street doesn't mean we have to think it's okay.

To be fair it's easy to be vindicated when your commitment is "the border Gestapo are evil and should not exist" Moreover, ICE must be destroyed

🚨NEW: @cbsnews.com reports ICE is arresting people who can't even legally be deported and holding them without enough food or water in a federal building BASEMENT in Los Angeles. Families dutifully attending check-ins with ICE are being arrested and held for days, forced to sleep on the floor.

This is only happening because of the activism and noise people have been making about Jonathan Joss. Imagine how many Indigenous or LGBTQ+ people have been murdered and forgotten because they're not celebrities or have no public backlash to police ignoring hate

No reason to leave the credit out of an image post, imo. There’s plenty of space to say that the bright blue dot is Earth seen from Saturn, and also credit the folks with the attribution they requested. CREDIT: NASA/JPL-Caltech/Space Science Institute

just a reminder that the dem who ran this campaign unseated a 3x gop incumbent who had never won by less than double digits

There are 2 previous historical cases of countries destroying their science and universities, crippling them for decades: Lysenkoism in the USSR and Nazi Germany. The Trump administration will be the 3rd. It's not just budgets but research, institutions, expertise, and training the next generation.

A new report shows how little has changed for Black victims of police killings five years after George Floyd's murder www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

I have a lot of people telling me that they don't hate trans people, they just hate that we manipulate kids into being trans, because no kid is truly trans without an adult influence. Except for one thing. I WAS. And I was homeschooled.

one of the most insane normalized aspects of our political climate is politicians going after their own constituents in the name of anti-wokeness. what are we doing here

People are in for a rude awakening if they think most "assaults on police officers" are real. We've seen teenagers charged with felonies for tapping police chiefs. A cop can start a brawl with you, throw you to the ground, and then charge you with assault. This is America.

This is just fascism. They are at the arresting opposition lawmakers part of fascism Moreover, ICE must be destroyed

Cato has published my comprehensive review of the ~240 Venezuelans the US government renditioned 2 months ago to Salvador’s notorious prison. We identified FIFTY who came legally, never violated any immigration law, but are imprisoned at the US government’s request and at US taxpayer expense.
