"Musk views empathy as a 'bug' that threatens his political agenda. This framing is instructive. Musk is seeking to weaponize animus, in order to justify his destructive, self-serving actions, and that means he needs our resentments to outweigh our regard for other people, and ourselves."
"I’ve noticed a shift among some progressives—away from prioritizing the protection of vulnerable people and toward a singular focus on protests aimed at stopping DOGE. Protest is necessary, but scattered demonstrations alone will not build the solidarity needed to survive the months & years ahead"
"To counter the forces of alienation and animosity that seek to divide us, we must build a culture of care. By creating as much safety and justice as we can, wherever we are, we will forge bonds that will sustain us in moments of collective resistance and refusal."
Yes, I saw them as looking more like auction paddles as well. It's sad that the wypipo did not join Al Green in solidarity, and get thrown out on principle.

Please also consider we need to communicate offline beyond social media, we need to reach people who social media bubbles don't reach, we need to expand who the "each other" are who know what is going on and who are in solidarity with each other

“Musk is seeking to affirm what *feels true* to people who want to believe in the Trump administration.”
“We must build narratives around our shared humanity, rather than grounding our politics in contempt.”
