Why is there a brown shirt here? Nobody likes you.

I don't even understand why we haven't had one starting 1776. Wait... is Independence Day technically the No Kings Day of old? If so, No Kings Day part 2 happening in 2 weeks.

Sending so much love your way. I heard people still showed up in St. Paul, but I also am glad people stayed home with the No Kings Rally making the hit list and the shooter still at large. Thank goodness he didn't kill all the people he wanted to, but what a tragic loss. Solidarity

I miss living in Seattle, but so many good ones gathered here in Bellingham today, too. I heard 70K in Seattle today! ❤️

Waj, you're the greatest. You're also my left-handed (and left-hooked) bro, so various versions of love and solidarity to you. Thanks for being over here on this side of history.

I doubt it. China has a mich higher population, and the BRICS make up over 60% of the world's population. That is 60% of 8 billion. Indonesia, one country that is a member of the BRICS, has about the same population as the US. China isn't scared, and Trump is helping the BRICS to the top.

I have many friends in Minnesota, and they're all some of the best people I know. Governor Walz, you were brave during your speech today. In solidarity, Minnesota.

As soon as Bellingham Troublemakers saw my sign, they immediately handed me their card. The words I have for this administration get harsher every time I go to one of these things.

Well, you've been a strong enabler voting for this king wannabes cabinet nominees. Thanks for your vote for Bessent and your votes for continued genocide in Gaza, sponsored by AIPAC. You're a fraud and definitely no Progressive. Bought and paid for like 80% of Dems.

Your beautiful souls outshine your beautiful faces. I'm heading to my my town's in an hour. Between Indivisible and Our Revolution, we got 6 hours of protesting scheduled. Stay safe, warriors. Love and solidarity to you both.

Which is where all the funding for Progressive legislation for Bernie's policies that Biden signed into law came from. I wish Bernie had won. He's acting like a president right now as he rallies the American public against the Trump administration. Feels like 2016-20 all over again but worse.
comment in response to post
It's easy to miss him in the chaos of now, but Bernie isn't getting the credit he deserves when Biden is praised. Bernie isn't one to care about intellectual property rights, but he made the biggest impact during COVID & was Senate Budget Comittee chair for the first 2 years of Biden's term.

I could appreciate Obama circa '08. Unfortunately, there was a lot of downward spiral from there. I don't think President Obama saw himself selling out to the extent he did when he first took office. The US public was also way more left-wing in 08. Now Democrats are mostly moderate right-wingers.

But you're right, I did alter the terminology to the correct terminology from "Expulsion of all Palestinians" and "Killing of all Palestinians" to the more accurate 'ethnic cleansing' and 'genocide.'
comment in response to post
Israel is the #1 cause of instability in the Middle East. Their "pre-emptive strikes" have broken a ceasefire preventing Isreali hostage release & potentially started WW3. Sure, it's just a coincidence that they're attacking & stealing land they think they're entitled to as they "defend themselves."
comment in response to post
It's actually ridiculous that anyone would argue that most Israeli Jews DON'T want the ethnic cleansing of Palestinians. An airport is named Ben-Gurion Airport, named for the guy who promoted the displacement of 750k Palestinians. Many live there *because* they are Zionists who want ethnosupremacy.
comment in response to post
See the sources in the thread. The poll was conducted by the University of Pennsylvania. Netanyahu and the Israeli government is comprised of psychopaths that belong behind bars. Are you genocidal zionist that cheers for war crimes, too?
comment in response to post
Israel, the bloodthirsty, evil antagonist of the Middle East. The number one reason for destabilization in the Middle East.

I imagine dreams of war and carnage are what helps Bibi sleep at night. He's such an evil psychopath.
comment in response to post
A couple of sources for you. I was low on the actual percentage who want genocide of Palestinians. www.haaretz.com/opinion/2025...
comment in response to post
There was recent polling that 82% of Israelis wanted to see Palestinians ethnically cleansed or killed. Of those, 44% want a genocide in Israel, & 56% want ethnic cleansing. It's a very propagandized population. Maybe they don't support Netanyahu, but they do support his actions. Reason: Zionism.
comment in response to post
I hope this is some indirect calling out of Israel, finally. Probably not since we're also spreading Israeli propaganda these days. Do blame Hamas for Hamas saying they'd release the hostages and leave Gaza if the IDF withdrew? I doubt it. Brian isn't progressive in one way, that's for sure.
comment in response to post
They're a bunch of hateful simpleton bootlickers who are too stupid to recognize nuance or think critically, too rigid to accept accountability for their actions or admit it when they're wrong, too egocentric to practice empathy, & too cowardly cope with change, even when they're positive changes.

Unfortunately, I was told by an immigration lawyer that ICE CAN deputize police. However, some states have laws preventing that. My state has a law called the Keep Washington Working Act that protects immigrants' right to work in our state, declaring it unlawful in WA for the police to deputize ICE.

I am in the US as well. It's disheartening to see that men are generally not great around the world. I know some awesome dudes, but I know way more who default to siding with other men no matter how little sense it makes. Even when it's about WOMEN'S bodies. Ugh.

I guess someone just didn't like being called out.

Ok, got it! Thank you for clarifying because it seemed like some people responded directly to the quote.
comment in response to post
Woo! I'm not in California and obviously not in your district, but I am wishing you the very best! Democrats refusing to let go of their seats and rigid heirarchies have made a bad situation worse. Like 9 Democrats have died since Trump was elected. Now we have less representation in congress.

Well, I think I found my favorite AOC quote.

Whoever it is must have already blocked me because I can't see the comment. Would someone be able to shoot me a screenshot?

It is indeed relevant. Andor is such an incredible show, and from Rogue One to both seasons of Andor (all since Trump term 1), we've been drawing parallels here. Disney Star Wars is so lucky to have Tony Gilroy around.

The remainder could be the women who leave their infants in a park, mail them to an adoption agency, or leave them in a dumpster. All things that would be considered criminal & actual events. Not all women have the capacity to be nurturing mothers, which is why it should be the woman's choice.
comment in response to post
It depends on how you look at it. The vast majority of late-term abortions are a result of a life-threatening pregnancy, such as the woman who was forced to bleed out in a hospital parking lot in the US due to being denied removal of fetal tissue after she miscarried.
comment in response to post
They're just super upset about historically oppressed groups being in charge of themselves rather than being subjugated by them. At least in terms of the men, who make up the majority with their simplistic and violent minds that ignore the existence of nuance.
