Thinking about not sharing news stories about the people/orgs who obey in advance b/c I don’t want to contribute to the nihilism and sense that this is all inevitable. That is not the case. Yet everyone I know is affected by the kowtowing cowards and it feels relevant. How are folks holding this?

Do the people in the USA ever question the fact that they are the richest country in the world, but crime, healthcare, education, life expectancy are all like a 3rd world country. Do they not realize they are being robbed?

The National Park Service fired many of its park rangers as part of a reduction in the federal work force. Some rangers decided it was worth the risk to speak out online about the cuts and share their love of the Park Service. “It’s scary, but it was the right thing to do.”

I think it’s important to analyze this activity in terms of power: 1. They are threatening current & future federal employees about what happens if they don’t follow orders 2. Creating openings for loyalists 3. Creating opportunities for privatization 4. Raiding for resources, money and info Etc

the thing most people, and most notably white people but this applies across the board, is that resistance to oppression is neither a marathon nor a sprint but a diverse and multi-faceted effort, much of which will result in no victories whatsoever but you do it anyway, the little things

Higher-ed faculty, we should ask how far our institutions will go to protect us when we refuse to comply with ICE. We need to be asking chairs, deans, union presidents what they're going to do to protect us should we refuse ICE entry to our classrooms or should we refuse to identify a student.

SHARE WIDELY. KNOW YOUR RIGHTS. With mass deportations starting today across the country, it is vitally important - for both citizens and non-citizens - to know your rights. You have the right to remain silent. Assert it. You have the right to a lawyer. Ask for one. (1/3)

Don't be tricked a ceasefire agreement is just an excuse for Israel to get the construction crews and oil rigs into Gaza while they build a new open air concentration camp around the little bit they are keeping the Palestinians in now. Then later they will finish them off.

And yet for 16 months people have been in my comments with "free the hostages." It was never about the hostages. It was only ever about the ethnic cleansing of Palestinians from their land, as it has been since 1948.

We must BDS Israel even if there's a ceasefire. What they've done--for the past 15 months and since 1947--is unforgivable. Israeli leaders and soldiers must face trial and punishment. We must never give up the cause of justice for and liberation of Palestinians.

at times i wonder if self segregating from the right is the solution? because there are a lot of middle road people in these spaces too, and as the right expand and the left leaves— it feels like it offers up the middle road folx to the right. where else do we get to share our ideas to the middle?
