Hi, I’m God. I think good people should unite for a month long general strike. Love, God

This platform banned my friend Alaa AGAIN. She's now on @ellaellen12.bsky.social. It's absurd. It's a bad joke. @support.bsky.team, @pfrazee.com, explain to me why trying to survive a genocide violates the Terms of Service. Explain it to me like I'm 5.

If you think the police are going to stop ice, you need to watch this.

Reform does not work and is not enough. Years of advocates and activists have said this, it’s time to listen. Would we be talking about reforming ice in this moment? Of course not, they are tearing apart families and disappearing people.

www.interruptingcriminalization.com/community-co... - years of telling folks that these "oversight boards" WILL DO NOTHING to address the violence of policing.

If you've protested - Hands Off, Black Lives Matter, Water Protectors, Student Intifada, Global Climate Strike, Millions Missing - & so many more.. Pls sign a strike card with @generalstrikeus.bsky.social 3.5% of us taking economic action for our united demands can change so much

This is a visualization I’m hoping can become the strike card counter for @generalstrikeus.bsky.social but it doesn’t tell the whole story. We need people with every day skills to pitch in and we’re working on ways to make the onboarding process easier. In the meantime…

Strategic planning and implementation of a strike is important. We have our steps laid out, and are working on more specific ones within this broad timeline. Due to the speed at which fascism rose, the first three steps are currently overlapping, so we are working hard to get to Phase 2. #solidarity

Arresting people and throwing away their belongings is no way to treat people who are houseless. Anyone who thinks otherwise is a piece of shit. Are you a piece of shit or are you a decent human being?

It’s… not though. It’s the truth. Politicians are paid for by corporations.

It’s incredible that nobody has stepped up and said it’s time for open rebellion.

No elected official deserves respect or deference. Not a single one. There are some better than others but the idea that we have to show respect to anyone who is an elected official is absolute insanity. They work for us!

Also: Trump can’t activate state National Guard if the governor already activated them. Hm…

The Supreme got many things wrong in Citizens United. One was the assurance that all of the new campaign spending it had just unleashed would be transparent.

Because they’re complicit. They also want to brutalize the people.

The U.S. funds genocide. Don’t forget this. There are so many horrific things going on right now, but our country played a role in THIS (and many other atrocities) even before Trump. We are striking for a better country, not to go back to the pre-Trump era. This is a Revolution, not a reaction.

This is messed up. Why do we turn a blind eye to this garbage? For anybody else this would be a crime.

Waking up to a fresh hell every day is getting old. If we as a nation want (yes, WANT) to survive this as a nation, start preparing for mass action. Have a couple weeks of meds available. Get your pantry in order. Stock up on batteries etc. We're in it. The time is now. #generalstrike

Donald Trump is going to accept a $400 million “palace in the sky” the same week House Republicans move to kick 13.7 million Americans off health care.

“Contrary to conditional benefits, unconditional basic income has no disincentive to work. Because UBI is never withdrawn, everyone is always financially better off employed than not employed. UBI is a floor, not a ceiling.” @generalstrikeus.bsky.social

One thing I'd like folks to understand and for media to emphasize is that the GOP knows that Medicaid work requirements will not be an effective incentive. They are counting on that. If they actually induced employment they wouldn't "save money." They want people booted off Medicaid.
