The Gang bows to no one... #NoKings Philly

So this week we’ve had a man impersonating an ICE agent tie up a woman and steal $1000; a man impersonating a police officer assassinate a top Democratic politician & her husband (and shoot another Democrat & his wife); and a man impersonating a king hold a military parade for his birthday

Authoritarians want you to feel isolated and alone, to feel like their vision of the world is the only one. That’s why taking part in public protests matters. You connect with other people like you and you show those numbers off to the world. It’s a great feeling. Try it!

Referring to events in Ballymena as "disturbances" is a euphemism too far. We are witnesses to a pogrom. And it behoves us to say so, loud and clear. www.irishexaminer.com/lifestyle-co...

If you can't attend the rallies today for whatever reasons, something useful you can do is scour your local news outlets for coverage and share the coverage on social media and pump it out to all of your networks. Amplify what's happening locally so others in your communities are aware.

I no longer view the crisis before us as a GOP vs. Democrat issue, and I haven't for a long time. This is a profound issue of choosing to fight supremacist politics, of necropolitics-- of whether you believe it's worth protecting people's right to live with a measure of dignity and respect, period

How do people have the brainspace for this? If you don't like a platform, leave it. If enough people agree with you, it will die (remember Circles? neither do I). If it continues it just wasn't for you but it IS for the people who stayed. Everybody wins!

Feels kinda important to point out that if non-citizens are required to carry proof of legal status, then citizens do too by default. This is absolutely insane.

It’s completely insane that US troops are illegally deployed to suppress domestic opposition and it’s not uniformly condemned by the press and political elite.

I'm sure this is a much bigger issue for large accounts but anyone coming at me or anyone else with bad faith, misinformation, or nasty/cruel comments is instantly blocked. As a result I see a range of center-left to left opinions and mostly civil disagreements.

the scientific consensus is not in favor of scientific racism. quite the opposite. the people who promote scientific racism use pseudoscience and rhetorical fudging - "we all know what the numbers REALLY say" - to win support from innumerate amateurs who are impressed with their own intelligence.

You have no obligation to defend or explain the behavior of random street protesters. We have a lawless government that is flagrantly violating its legal, moral, even philosophical obligations to us. Everything else is secondary

Thinking about how our framing of democracy and voting are fucking us over. The idea of your vote as a prize that politicians/parties are competing to win, that it is acceptable for voters to sit home and pout because they were not properly catered to is a complete abdication of civic responsibility

Avoid the violence/nonviolence debate. It’s a trap. The only thing that matters is what actions lead to more justice and less harm. Inaction and complicity in the face of brutal oppression is the worst form of violence. Never forget it.

New in PN: ABC is too cowed to state the obvious about Stephen Miller "Miller and Trump are hateful bigots. Independent journalists can still say that. Journalists at ABC can’t, because the president gets a veto over their coverage. That’s not democracy and it’s not a free press. It’s fascism."

A test run or just a terror tactic? There's no elementary school that will allow a man with no connection to a student and no ID abduct kids and even these dum-dums must know that. But the fear that administrators, parents and kids will feel in the wake of this will be overwhelming.
