"Stranger danger" is so nefarious as a propaganda tool, because 1) most sexual violence is committed by people known to the victim and 2) the people imagined to be "the stranger" (trans people, immigrants, Black people) are themselves most at risk for facing violence from people they don't know

To me, a Nazi salute means, "I want to murder your family." There can be no irony about it: It puts deep anger and hatred in my heart to see it done and I will never forgive anyone who justifies or minimizes it.

This is incredibly smart by @ryanhatesthis.bsky.social, a lesson Democrats have to learn fast. There will be no a-ha moment for the electorate. You can't wait around for people to realize how bad it is if they'll invariably wind up blaming the Reverse Vampires. You just have to fight, right now.

hello cis friends this is what people mean by trans genocide if a type of person does not officially exist, then any harm against them cannot be measured or reported this headline change isn't even being caused by an executive order it's simply the NYT editors deciding we don't deserve to exist

Yeah I know people say anxiety is bad, but mine has just been collecting all the possible things that can go wrong so far. Once it has an exhaustive catalog of every possible mishap, it’ll move on to suggesting solutions and then you better watch out.

If George Soros held an Oval Office press conference explaining his plans for the Biden administration and then the State Department awarded a nine figure contract to the Open Society Foundations then Washington D.C. would’ve consisted of mostly ash and blood within 72 hours.

This is what stings the most. This is a generational setback, assuming Dems even come out the other side with any real interest in rebuilding

Eric Adams pretty much agreed to sidestep NY sanctuary protections, & make his city's immigrant residents more vulnerable to iCE, in pursuit of naked personal gain & a shield from corruption charges.

To understand the faction leading America, recognize they think the worst, most terrifying things to happen in recent years are: 1) George Floyd protests 2) Public health treating COVID as real 3) HR saying "we've received complaints about your, um, 'jokes'" 4) Press 1 for English 5) Pronouns in bio

The argument against the "do something" crowd is that an opposition party is simply incapable of influencing events outside of their narrow constitutional duties. Like, Chuck Schumer and Hakeem Jeffries simply cannot generate a media circus.

We need to stop calling these settlements. Seriously. Be a reporter. He will file suit anytime anyone says anything he doesn't like then offer a settlement. And he'll even sue the places who say good things about him. It's a bribe. And if you can't see that then you're not a serous reporter

Black Lives Matter fundamentally broke these people’s brains. They couldn’t bear the idea that they might have to tell a different story about this country and thus tell a different story about themselves. They hated it, and now they are using everything they have to never feel that way again.

Remember, "I don't know, I lack sufficient information on this topic" is NEVER an acceptable answer. Instead, loudly state the first opinion that pops into your head, speak with authority, and gaslight anyone who disagrees until they begin to question everything they know.

The thing is that the news has to do the same thing with Elon that it does with Trump where you have to constantly go “well what I THINK he meant was…” because if you just look at what is actually done without editorializing it makes you feel really gross if you’re not upset by it

simple point i tried to convey in the post I just shared. if someone does a nazi salute at a political rally, i don't need to do a critical biography or do some deep dive on why they did it. if you want a research project, sure, whatever. but that doesn't matter. They did it. Thats all that matters.
