Minnesota Star Tribune debunks each of the lies and conspiracies posted on social media from Mike Lee, Elon Musk, and all the other usual suspects who do this EVERY time. www.startribune.com/fact-check-d...

i've had success getting boomer conservatives on my side by talking about how fucked up it was of ICE to raid a restaurant and deport employees who were just doing their regular jobs and ended up forcing the business to shut down for the weekend

We can get them on our side, the pandemic taught us that "a business had to temporarily close" is equivalent to one hundred 9/11's.

love how it says the majority would rather have someone other than cuomo, describes how ranked choice fixes this, and then implies it's somehow less democratic

A really important lesson Dems need to learn is to stop getting on the wrong side of extremely easy and popular issues, i.e. when they became hysterical lunatics about TikTok for some reason

I think there is a misunderstanding of voting power here. Leaving candidates off your ranking shows that you simply don't want any of them to have the position. Depriving a candidate of votes is just as much an expression of voting power as voting for them directly.

My wife and I had a Hindu wedding ceremony in her parents backyard and the HOA bitched about it and fined them. Over the years my FIL has built up an Indian voting bloc and now they control the whole thing and he walks around the development like this telling white people to mow their fucking lawn

This guy harrassed me last year & still stalks me to this day :) mentioning it again bc lots of yall follow him & i know for a fact he harasses other women on here & irl

Well, better start adapting then. Because conservatives intend for it to be.

They are manufacturing consent to coup a mayor

The Atlantic piece on Zohran Mamdani and Andrew Cuomo is full of holes. Mamdani's proposals are picked apart and labeled unrealistic while Cuomo's supposed goals aren't even elaborated on. Cuomo is "an asshole, but he's our asshole"—the New Yorkers who he has sexually harassed might think otherwise

With that said...We should. I think this should be a harsh lesson for any liberals especially that still can't seem to wake up to the fact that these people are our enemies. They want us under their thumb of oppression at worst, or dead. They are incompatible with any idea of a free society.

I'm trying to imagine a Democratic president saying openly and proudly that he would be sending federal agents to target the 'Republican Power Center' in Texas, Florida, and Tennessee. We would be in the midst of a civil war before he'd finished saying those words.

Huh. That’s a different statement about how the officers encountered the shooter than the initial statement made by the cops.

BREAKING: President Donald Trump directs federal immigration officials to prioritize deportations from Democratic-run cities after large protests erupted in Los Angeles and other major cities against his administration’s immigration policies.

200,000 people in Los Angeles protesting, completely covering a wide long street with thick sidewalks "250,000" people in trump's birthday military parade barely cover one sidewalk for comparison the parade route was also just a straight line road, not as if they're spread out all over. same shape

I don't say this to downplay the protests. It's great to see people out there. What I am saying is that if people think peaceful protest once a month waiving a few signs will topple or hamstring the regime, they're sorely mistaken. You need something like euromaidan to put a stop to this.

If we abolish the police, who will witness assassinations before allowing the murderer to leave?

Curious how they often manage to avoid killing the suspects when they're white men.

BELLE PLAINE, Minn. (AP) — Police officers witnessed Minnesota suspect fatally shoot husband of state lawmaker before he fled scene, documents say.

“the Black folks”

I'm so sick of this take. They're detaining you if you're BROWN or BLACK. Do you want to watch as they put us back in chains?

Be wary and do not trust folk like this trying to spread division and break up solidarity. The fight against fascism belongs to everyone who opposes the right wing death cults. NONE of us are free until ALL of us are free

It's wild how many (white) people will see posts like this and go "wow so true, this one CEO who speaks for all black people is right"

Please not that Black people who actually know and understand history are deep in this struggle and disregarding anybody who would say this nonsense.

These accounts are just trying to make white people who personally know zero Black people feel as if they're in-the-know on Black issues. They are talking absolute nonsense.

How about you stop talking about Black people, who are 20+ million in number, as some sort of monolithic, mystical clan.

You could've just said "I'm selfish and i don't care about other people". It would've taken less words and been more honest than this.

This reads like a fed trying to get less people to protest and sew racial divisions amongst those protesting It plays right into the hands of the right

Speak for yourself and fuck you. This affects us too, and waiting until it DIRECTLY comes at your door is often the moment where it's too late. People like you are a fucking disgrace.

In what way is this genre of post not just overtly gop propaganda

Pedophiles support pedophiles.

A right-winger -- a registered Republican, a Trump voter, an evangelical anti-abortion activist -- assassinates a Democratic official. Republicans respond by blaming the left. Democrats respond by blaming ... no one.

We won’t amplify it, but the president posting that Dems are “sick of mind” and “hate our country” immediately after 2 Dem lawmakers and their spouses were shot in their homes is the opposite of leadership. Gas on the fire.

Every single one led by a Black mayor.

Kinda wild that we all get to pay taxes to fund a civil war against us

"how do you feel being the one guy in headgear who doesn't yell at trans people?" "pretty good." good answer, good answer, give that guy all the belts
