One important thing to remember is that mahmoud Khalils' arrest was only possible because of normalized antagonism toward pro-palestinian activists. Said antagonism was largely pushed by the Biden administration and cheered on by scores of so-called "liberals".

While I'm at it, this "white men are gonna turn on ICE because they're deporting big booty Latinas" shit is pretty fucked up Already seen one lib org make a video advertisement kinda on that theme just further objectifying women who are already subjected to sexual violence and trafficking

I don't know if the people who are like "immigrants should fight back" realize just how terrifying it is to be surrounded by men in masks with guns. Where I come from, among lots of other places, that's something you don't come back from.

It's actually really easy to forget but Biden up until February 2020 or so was not considered the most viable alternative to Bernie and there was a widespread scramble by centrist mayors and members of the House to find their guy— and a lot of them landed on Michael Bloomberg!

The smears against Zohran coming from the Democratic establishment are also a sign of fear—they’re more scared of the party becoming progressive than they are of the country already being fascist. If Zohran wins, it signals a reckoning. If Cuomo wins, they can keep the failing status quo intact.

And a reminder that oppressors always use divide & conquer as a strategy to prevent our solidarity. Together, we have so much more power. No one is free until all of us are free.

Glitterbombing ICE agents to make them more identifiable is so quintessentially in keeping with the spirit of Pride I'm going to need a moment and a breather to recover from the feelings it gives me.

Just saying, there's "scientific uncertainty" for gender-affirming care for minors in the same way that there's "uncertainty" about vaccines or Earth being round. It's a disingenuous validation of a viewpoint that is clearly and consistently contradicted by science.

The story of LGBT rights is a story of advances followed by setbacks followed by media with no skin in the game saying, "It's because you were too loud/asked for too much/moved too fast/got too big for your britches/didn't make your case." That never changes--but happily it's never the last word.

GCs are all saying Stephen Fry is a nonce, which I don't disagree with - he gives me the ick... but he wasn't on my side of the argument. He was on theirs. So really, all they're confirming is they were willing to use someone they thought to be a nonce as a route to publicity. Masterful Gambit.

This is not even intended to be an accurate description of what any group of trans people is saying. This is intended to manufacture cover for cis "allies" to abandon trans rights by giving the (false) impression there is a "silent majority" of trans people who want to "compromise" on trans rights.

“you’re going to die because of this” is not a thing i’d ever say to a trans kid, whose life is hard enough as is. i didn’t get the care i needed. i survived. “some trans kids will die because of this” is a thing a lot of cis people need to hear. the ones whose “reasonable concerns” led here.

You can see the ICE agents in their minivans then the LAPD cars in the back appearing to block the Dodger Stadium parking lot entrance. When I asked an LAPD officer if they are blocking ICE from entering the parking lot she said “put it this way. The Dodgers don’t want them coming in.”

the destruction of chattel slavery is one of the great accomplishments in our nation's history and the reason conservatives hate celebrating it is because doing so legitimizes the black counter-narrative of the united states

it doesn't help either that cis people continually make the endless battery of transphobic policymaking about themselves, say we're exaggerating, call us hysterical, etc etc. on a personal level i am the happiest and most fulfilled i have ever been all while society gaslights me about my oppression.
