Among the material devastation to everyday people, Senate Dems have now blown a hole in their ability to work with the House. We had an agreed upon plan, House took immense risk, then Senate turned around midway and destroyed it w/ a fear-based, inexplicable abdication. They own what happens next.

‘You Can’t Let This Happen,’ Says Fundraising Email From Sitting U.S. Congressperson

submitted 35 days ago • 307 comments

"Gulf of America" is just a loyalty test. It's a way of checking who is going to abrogate reality for no reason other than a cowardly refusal to stand up to the bully or an opportunistic willingness to toady up to one. Anyone who will call it that will help you round people up or look the other way.

What I find so frustrating about the last decade of Trans Panic is that there must have been at least some neutral journalists. Why didn't any of them just ask a few probing questions to "Gender Criticals" like this? It's so easy to get them to contradict themselves.

You know what's so funny I want to cry? There are elected members of the Democratic party who work endlessly to make it better and more responsive to real people and does anyone listen to them? No. They are trashed as "the left," "progressives," "unreasonable." But fascists? Oh, we must listen!!

The thing that keeps getting me about all the pieces fretting about Bluesky being too insular is that the argument seems to be that those of us who are most likely to be abused by the right (BIPOC people, trans people, queer people, etc) must put up with being abused for the sake of public discourse

Every article about blue sky: a group of relatively like minded people have found a place where they enjoy hanging out because it isn't infested with nazis and ads for penis pumps. But is that bad?

Hey, remember the Elian Gonzalez saga? Remember how much righteous anger there was in Republican circles over this image of one (1) armed federal agent taking custody of (1) undocumented minor in order to reunite him with his father? These are the images Republicans will soon be celebrating.
