A reason I get so angry when people diminish stochastic terrorism's role in shaping our society is because when things like the campaign of terrorism & subsequent hate killing of Jonathan Joss happen we all instinctively acknowledge that it may not have were the perpetrators not emboldened.

Dear Fundamentalist Christians, When you start being persecuted for real, just know it's a self inflicted wound and it's because of endless shit like this that illustrates the underlying cruelty and ridiculousness of your bullshit fairy tale mythology.

AOC: We need to be talking about ICE agents and the cowardly policy of covering their faces — and, in many cases, their identification… The idea that we’re going to allow a paramilitary force to bloom, one that isn’t accountable to the Constitution… we’ve got another thing coming.

Per historian Jari Honora The new pope has Creole of color roots from New Orleans on his mother's side. His family left New Orleans and went to Chicago between 1910 and 1912. Apparently his grandfather was born in Haiti. So, a lot of history being made.

A historic moment as we witness the first American leading the Catholic Church. Hailing from Chicago, Pope Leo XIV ushers in a new chapter that I join those in our state welcoming in at a time when we need compassion, unity, and peace.

I’m so confused by the folks who said that raising the minimum wage would increase the price of every day goods while also being okay with tariffs raising the price of every day goods… I reckon they are okay paying higher prices as long as it doesn’t help anyone making a minimum wage.

With all the videos of police illegally entering people’s home using intimidation & force to detain & deport American if not worse. Black peoples have dealt with that for centuries. It’s police brutality. That is beyond unconstitutional. That is why Colin Kaepernick knelt.… Now do you f’n get it?

No American can afford to ignore the systematic erosion of what it means to be American. We are way past political and ideological disagreements. What’s at stake is our adherence to the Constitution and rule of law. What safeguards all of our rights. Without it, we cease to be America.

How do we get this whole administration in front of the ICC? If it takes direct foreign military intervention from a country that still maintains democratic principles, let the intervention begin.
