I mean this when I say Elon is the most dangerous man in the world. Truly supervillain level of danger.

Note: The person giving the sermon in question is Bishop Mariann Budde, the Episcopal Bishop of Washington. Rep. Collins is suggesting deporting a U.S. citizen and bishop for delivering a sermon in a house of worship in accordance with her faith.

If you're a "doer" like me and actions (even small ones) make you feel a little less helpless, here's some broad, easy (or easy to start) ideas 🧵 General and obvious? Maybe, but it never hurts to repeat and some folks may be hearing this for the first time/reminded for the first time in a while.

Apparently you cannot say/post, “Free Palestine,” on Tik Tok anymore. The application that aided in people learning about an ongoing ethnic cleansing, genocide, occupation, and was used in courts to showcase Zionism is now somewhere you cannot say a basic for justice phrase of the devastation.

The most powerful words you can say right now to these fascist bastards is: "No, make me." They cannot actually be everywhere and enforce their fascist policies. They rely on fear to do the job of governing for them. By refusing to comply, you make their means of compliance ineffective.

Preposterous that someone nominally in charge of seven companies can act so deeply unemployed. Buddy, I run one company and I’m trying to figure out when I can find time to take down the Christmas tree.

Imagine if they controlled all the media? If every company, every newspaper, and every website kissed the ring. Imagine if they controlled where we got our news, how we talked to one another, how we shared everything about our lives, where we met and laughed and organized. Imagine that.

Do not comply in advance. Do not comply when the law is in place. Resist.

call me crazy but when I was a kid being violently opposed to Nazism was fundamental to being pro-American

Nazis: "that's a nazi salute" Historians: "that's a nazi salute" Average person: "that's a nazi salute" The Media: "Elon Musk makes odd gesture throwing his heart to the crowd."

...so uh, embryos are all physically "female" for like 6 weeks. Who's gonna tell them? 👀 #transrights #trans #nonbinary #nonbinaryrights

Yup, @jamellebouie.net has this exactly right. What these guys are celebrating/pursuing/yearning for is not masculine energy, it's *adolescent* energy. Drinking Red Bull, crushing Call of Duty, refusing to clean your room. It is indescribably pathetic. www.nytimes.com/2025/01/18/o...

If you value patriotism, why the hell would you vote Republican?

@cloverseeds.bsky.social look, am I doing it right?
