You have more in common with the average Iranian citizen than you do with the people that run this country

My dad and I always watch a ton of movies when I visit and I am *extremely* proud of the double feature I programmed tonight (also I cried a lot):

this is so amazing

In case you weren't aware, the greater LA metropolitan area is the size of Portugal and contains 80% more people. They cannot constitutionally do this, but also, they cannot physically do this.

Pathetic: ABC’s GMA, World News Tonight, This Week, CBS’ Mornings, Evening News, Face the Nation, NBC’s Today, Nightly News, Meet the Press, MSNBC, The New York Times, The Washington Post, The Los Angeles Times, and The Wall Street Journal all failed to cover Trump's new office for ethnic cleansing.

Deleted doordash account when i saw this last night (doordash is one of the 3 major funders of this ad). Shameless and disgusting.

We feed you. They hunt us.

dude this party is such an echo chamber. it's just friends hanging out and chilling and having a good time. you need to invite some people over who want to kill you with hammers

I was a medic at the Santa Ana protests in OC today. I watched police fire tear gas, flash bangs, & rubber bullets into crowds of men, women, & children. Other medics and I were clearly marked with red crosses, and the police were targeting us. One of the most fucked up things I’ve ever seen.

Intentional, aimed shot taken at a reporter on camera. Further proof that the cops, feds, and military are there to start something and want to scare off reporters so they aren't caught explicitly starting it on film

you can't tell at first because this is written in the exonerative tense, but she was shot *by another police officer*

please think about listening to this if you're at a 'what's next?' point....that is all

lmao add it to the pile

This has the air of "I was just obeying orders" now that the tide is turning. Worth remembering that during the height of the genocide nearly 100% of reservists reported for service.

These kinds of uses of AI are going to embed untruth in our collective knowledge systems in the same way that forever chemicals like PFAS are going to be in living bodies and environments for thousands of years.

I know pretty much every trans person is some combination of anxiety and dread this week So this message is for cis people: This is it. Yeah, the odds of this budget stopping are slim, but if you shrug and let it happen without calling, protesting, anything you can do? You gave up on trans lives.

People think we live in a democracy and not a dictatorship of capital cause they don’t want to contend with what you have to do to get out of a dictatorship of the ruling class

Jackbooted thugs in Foley, AL snatched a U.S. citizen from his *work site*—no uniform, no ID, no explanation. Just brute force and racial profiling. They detained him for *hours.* “ICE” is targeting Brown Americans like enemies. This is not safety. It’s state-sanctioned terror.

One reason I don't think it's useful to argue about the correct tactics for Democrats to win elections is winning elections isn't enough. They've won the presidency 5 out of 9 times since 1992 and where are we now. The question is how we create something better than a dead cat bounce party

I'm a Racecraft stan because it teaches historical materialism in such a profoundly absorbing way that you can figure out how to apply it everywhere. Definitely not the first left theory I read but it was the first time that kind of analysis really CLICKED and I never looked back

If you are going to spend every day of your life logging on looking for my posts and arguing with me about Marxism it might benefit you to actually read a 70 page pamphlet so you actually understand the words I am using and how I am using them

This is what protestors did in San Francisco when the Iraq War started on March 20, 2003 and it completely crippled the city

Woke up to a bunch of clearly coordinated spam saying Palestine was invented in the 20th century and I must work for Hamas, because I published article suggesting you might want to buy olive oil from Palestine. Here's that article again, go buy some olive oil! www.eater.com/24430125/bes...

Dems need to accept that this whole “see, we can still work with Republicans to get things done” schtick is part of the reason a lot of people don’t believe the entirely correct claims of corruption and authoritarianism. If those claims were true, why would you still be working with them?

This was not the only thing that radicalized me by a long shot, but one thing that has really buoyed me along the way is how ideas that once seemed permanently verboten (socialism, abolition, anti zionism) can become very popular, very quickly, and when you least expect it.

No matter how hard they try, this toothpaste is never going back in the tube. It's over.

GOD FUCKING DAMN IT. KOSA is vile & every single republican openly plans to weaponize it. blackburn straight up said it exists to “protect minors from the transgender in society” & 22 GOP attorneys general openly said, “yes, i *would* use it to go after abortion info.” KOSA IS A GIFT TO FASCISTS.

David Hogg survived an infamous mass murder and has extremely mid center-left politics, but Democrats treated him like radioactive manure the second he even suggested that someone take a handful of their phony-baloney gigs, in case you still thought they were anything but a job placement service

When Democrats fail to win over "moderate" voters in swing states, it's the fault of Democrats failing to match those voters on policy. When Democrats fail to win over pro-Palestinian voters in swing states, however, it's the fault of those voters.

[I love my dead gay son voice] I love my boomin' berry bagels

they Bernied the generically liberal white boy who survived a school shooting

how every dem elected official isn’t losing their damn mind right now is beyond me. they want to arrest all of you!!!!

I haven't seen the same outpouring of support for Rodney Hinton, Jr. that we saw for Luigi Mangione. GoFundMe took down the fundraiser for Hinton, who is accused of killing an officer shortly after he watched bodycam footage of police killing his 18-year-old son.

Dems in Congress's fun reward for not expelling all the disqualified insurrectionists who voted to overturn the 2020 election (as the United States Constitution requires) is that Republicans in Congress are now demanding their arrest.

it’s not a net loss. it’s the cost of a service. I don’t have a net loss with hulu. it costs something and I pay it.
