not sure there's a more embarrassing profession than ICE agent. Oh, you dress like a soldier to abduct sous chefs and throw flashbangs at protesters? Get a real job you loser

I'd go with like "many of the pedophiles who flew with Trump on Jeffrey Epstein's planes are the same people who are also trying to cut health care for Americans. Part of the reason they want us poor is so we can't fight back when they rape our kids."

one thing about police is that if an explicitly fascist party came to power and gave them direct orders to go out rounding up people to be sent to extermination camps i'd be surprised and impressed if more than 1 in 100 of them refused the order or quit

Jonathan Joss was Comanche and Apache and an openly gay actor. He was murdered while looking at the remains of his dogs at his own house that was burnt down. The killer yelled homophobic slurs before shooting him. This is the real world consequences of the hatred that the right commodifies

There has not so far been a Brownmiller revival this decade to go with the Dworkin one, much as some have tried to rehabilitate Brownmiller too; but since there will now be obituaries, please know that she was an unrepentant apologist for the lynching of Emmett Till even after the Bryant recantation

It’s really comforting that as food skyrockets in price, your neighbors are disappeared by masked goons, and people die en masse of preventable illness, Republicans and Democrats can come together and say: fuck this one trans teenager in particular for trying to run track with her friends

I still think the best idea for progressive donors is to just revive every alt-weekly in the country and staff them with 10 reporters each.

I feel like the reason the GOP keeps trying to ban porn is because the porn they like is already banned.

Do you ever think about how many hours people all over the world spent these past 2 years protesting against the genocide in Gaza and how little it moved the people in power?

Every extra hour that ICE spends facing off with activists is an hour they can't spend kidnapping other people. Every extra minute ICE has to spend contingency planning around activists and neighbors, every extra officer ICE has to put on a kidnap squad, is a drain on their efficiency.

I've said this a million times, but I'll say it again: it is truly striking how many Democratic politicians, pundits, and commentators have internalized the idea that the right shapes public opinion and it is the job of the left to respond to it.

Cheeto, Drumpf, Orange Whatever - that shit doesn’t help. It has been so overused that now it is hack, and doesn’t hit the mark comedically. Worse, it sounds like babytalk about a man who is a very real threat. When you use these cringey slang terms it’s like calling a TBI a “boo-boo”.
