we must be very clear on this: not a single right winger actually believes the crash was about DEI. they all understand it was likely a mistake or a result of understaffing. they're not that stupid—they're just very racist. they also don't give a fuck about other people (including white people)

If your SNAP benefits stop you need to find a food pantry close to you asap. I’ve seen a lot of crazy lately, and people I know are freaking out even though they know me and know that I’ll help them with food. Look for solutions. Feeling helpless and acting crazy is not solution.

The January 6 pardons are turning out great.

Bluesky has its flaws, but the sheer commitment to running fascists off the app is glorious and unmatched.

The good thing about this website is there won’t be two hundred guys under a post like this saying “actually ☝🏻”

The right has lost the culture war. The Dems won, occupying the space from Bernie Sanders all the way to former Trump officials. Now they’re poised to usher in an era of mild economic reform, plus right-wing policing, border policy, and foreign policy. www.jphilll.com/p/the-right-...

Vote Blue or RESIST or I’m With Her or whatever you call yourselves: Harris/Walz loses if they do not step up and END THE FUNDING OF GENOCIDE Either you join in pushing them or YOU WANT TRUMP see what I did there ?

Ah yes the apolitical act of dropping a nuke.

"Do Palestinians have the right to symbolically resist slow death, punctuation by periodic massacres, or is it it incumbent upon them to lie down and die?" - Dr. Norman Finkelstein

Dr Maté, born in Budapest in 1944, survived the Holocaust. He recommends books such as _Gaza: An Inquest Into Its Martyrdom_ by Norman Finkelstein and _The Ethnic Cleansing of Palestine_ by Ilan Pappé.
