You matter.

Mm-hmm

I mean National Dems by the way.

been thinking about this and glad it's being explored in the media

Once you understand that their goal is to get women, LGBTQ folks and people of color out of public life, everything gets clearer. You should evaluate their *policy* proposals accordingly.

Raging at each other instead of the machine.

It's one thing to shit on nonviolence but pointless if you're not going to do any actual violence. Hawk talk is as American as apple pie. Americans love war.

Take 10 minutes and look through #TeslaTakeDown and then go do stuff in your communities. Peace, everyone.

There is a FOMO element to hyperconsumption and capitalism. That's how corporations invented and made Black Friday a cultural norm that feels like a tradition.

Mao led by ideology. Similarly, DOGE and MAGA are ideological true believers who think they are creating a bureaucracy-free nirvana. Run the United States like a private business. Run the United States into the ground.

In search of boring, ordinary people like me.

This is what James Baldwin means when he says that, “there is no white community.” Hate and competition are the frame. From white families to the larger group, white folk hate each other and anyone who looks like they're getting something that they think they don't deserve.

Through the process of interaction, people present themselves to others and in this presentation strive to achieve for themselves and one another a clear definition of the shared social reality (Goffman, 1967).

On the boundaries of whiteness and hierarchy among white people. Or, how we find ourselves in this mess.

When white organizers do this, they are likely trying to punish other white people (because white ppl hate each other) while simultaneously throwing Black Southern organizers under the bus.

Judge rules that Black church in DC, which won a $2.8 million default judgment against the Proud Boys, now gains control over the trademark “Proud Boys.” The far-right group is barred from selling any related merchandise or symbols without the consent of the church. Gift link:

I appreciate this commentary from Professor Crunk. I've deleted a couple of ego-driven, "critique" posts of my own. "Kindness over ego is a discipline right now." 🐞

On this 4th day of #BlackHistoryMonth, I’m sharing a zine I made that includes writing by @drashleyfarmer.bsky.social and me. The Call to Negro Women is a proto-feminist Black feminist manifesto published in 1951. The zine is designed by Jordan De Loach. issuu.com/projectnia/d...

Years ago when I said [on the other site] that the entire GOP needed to be destroyed, I was yelled at for a couple of days, lol. Those yelling were not GOP supporters, lol.

I'm a big fan of strategic sabotage. Infiltrate, slow down, make inefficient, bungle things intentionally… There are many ways to resist. A thousand cuts in the fabric of authoritarianism. open.substack.com/pub/blacklod...
