Every single person who downplayed & continues to downplay Covid by talking about the pandemic in the past sense and denying the reality that our current vaccines do not prevent transmission or long covid is responsible for the mainstreaming of denialism. MASK UP, ventilate, test, get vaxed if u can

There's no organized immigrant resistance to ICE. One of the most alarming things about these fash assholes playing military dress-up is that they're not doing it to arrest immigrants, they're armed up because they're expecting to fight American citizens... violently.

Also: In March, Musk’s personal lawyers said in a court filing that he’s “in charge of Establishing and Implementing the President's Department of Government Efficiency..” They then linked to the executive order creating the U.S. DOGE Service, which the SG now says Musk is “not part of.”

Hope people who bought into Fauci and Walensky’s “only the sick and disabled will die from covid, so it’s not a problem anymore” campaign understand how y’all materially helped bring us here:

The “covid is only a threat to the vulnerable” narrative primed the pump for the eugenics movement we’re seeing now. It conditioned people to see the disabled & vulnerable as acceptable losses. People who were probably going to “die anyways”. It paved the way for fascism.

As much as people talk about how #ActuallyAutistic people and moms are pitted against each other, the latter represent only a sliver of parents. For every mom that films their kids' meltdown, hundreds fight to get their kid adequate accommodations with IEPs. Happy Mother's Day to awesome moms.

I'd also add, mocking of disabled people who are still taking Covid precautions has also normalized anti-disability biases.

Don’t be surprised if the next marginalized community the far right decides to target and demonized is the disabled community. The normalization of the ‘R-word,’ acceptance pronatalist eugenics, and the proposal there should be a registry of people on the autism spectrum. “Lebensunwertes leben.”
