In the Soviet Bloc, the Communist Party assigned political minders/ commissars to every school, factory, army unit, etc to ensure ideological compliance and loyalty to the regime. Hiring was based on class background and demonstrated loyalty. Obviously, this is very different.

Lord knows I’m not a constitutional scholar not even a lawyer (and I’ve yet to check in with @kateshaw.bsky.social) but a legal regime in which “you can do crimes if you’re buddies with the president or praise him publicly” is on its face a violation the equal protection of the laws.

Another reason to ❤️ Costco. While Target and others cancel diversity to appease Trump, Costco’s investing in the community—building apartments above its stores, starting in LA. This $425M project includes 184 low-income units, with key services, plus a rooftop pool and fitness center.

Maxwell Frost is 💯 right. The real enemy is corruption, fascism, greed, & big money rigging the system, not each other. We must unite, not divide. Bring kindness back to BlueSky, focus on the fight ahead, and stand together against fascism. The stakes are too high for infighting.

I just want to say I'm tired of some people dismissing others who feel awful right now, saying "but that's just how they want you to feel!"
