I just think if you’re going to engage with political violence in this country, you have to be honest about the reality of it and how it’s structured / allowable for some but becomes the pretext to further crush others.

fascism feels less like a slow creep toward an abyss and more like a dead sprint to lock all the doors in a burning building

Immigration is not a public safety issue. Fascist masked kidnappers entering our cities with tactical vehicles and military escorts are a public safety issue.

I’m not a math major but it seems to me that given all the emphasis on platforming “controversial ideas” and “just asking questions” over the last decade or two we should have, like, 10 Galileos by now. what gives

To hell with every other journalist or academic who's told me last few years "fascism" is hysterical. To hell with every grandstanding faux leftist who's insisted that none of this is new. To hell with "internal migration." To hell with denial. www.youtube.com/shorts/k2W39...

A family member went to work at the AME church today…and was met by ICE. They’re crawling all over the church grounds, blocking traffic, and generally being obstructive. My family member and their colleagues believe it is intimidation ahead of Saturday. They are scared and now pissed, to boot.

I don't care what people on the street did or didn't do, I dont care who did or didn't engage in violence, I don't care whether you approve or not. ICE is having a hard time conducting raids, and that is the point. All the rest is noise. Serve the people, always. www.nbcnews.com/politics/imm...

It’s still defund and abolish the police. When any interaction has the potential to become a kidnapping at the hands of the state, we need to keep organizing to reduce police presence, power, and resources, to decriminalize potential offenses and help stop folks from coming into contact with them.

The crew of the Madleen deserves all of our love and solidarity. They knew they were on a dangerous path, but also understood the necessity of trying. The siege of Gaza must end, aid must be delivered, and the crew of the Madleen must be freed.

The most fundamental characteristic of fascism is its cult of violence. Where there is no pre-existing violence to exploit, violence must be manufactured.

Many of the “most serious” places in our society are actually the least serious. So unserious, that they reduce the capacity of ordinary people to understand the concept of seriousness.

Heard some mainstream country for the first time in a while, and it really is wild how it has nothing musically to do with country. It's just pop and rock with right wing cultural signifiers, and has been for like 25 years

I think it’s an especially important time to to organize around the reality that it’s all connected: the ICE raids, the crackdown on campus speech, the Zionist insistence we not trust our eyes, the corporate overlord insistence that AI is actually…good. Say no. Fuck no.

“Jonathan Greenblatt also said protests against Israel were driven by ‘same kind of nihilists’ who participated in Black Lives Matter.” Just naked racism from the head of the ADL. What a shande.

People say poverty is the leading driver of crime but they also say wage theft is the largest category of theft so I think we should clarify the former claim to indicate that it’s only the driver of “crime people care about trying to stop” or something like that

The interesting thing about people dragging the folks in that NYT piece who said that they didn’t vote for moms to get deported is that the article is about how these women are organizing for a member of their community, aggressively and openly, and actually, that’s good.
