It's no accident that the very worst men you met around 2019 were talking highly of Jordan Peterson.

I appreciate everyone’s messages of support, I’m trying to get through all my mentions but as you can imagine, it’s been a bit of a busy day :) Remember - peaceful civil disobedience, and no kings, no tyrants. Not ever.

The first step of "woke" is don't be an asshole. The second step is knowing history and power relations. The third step is treating people you interact with in the world as people with their own consciousness and inner life. That's all too hard for some people.

Please explain what is illiberal about being a leftist. Moreover, please explain what is classically liberal about any aspect of the right at the moment?

The snow cold and silence at 5am is unmatched. Just something special yknow

An unelected billionaire believes you are a parasite for accessing anything from the government. You're not. You're a human. Meanwhile this asshole steals billions thru tax loopholes, shady contracts, and price gouging. Whose the fucking parasite?

I’ve said it before, I’ll say it again: an administration (and its supporters) who believe that they are not limited by the rule of law have no moral or philosophical claim to the protection of the rule of law. “The law is whatever we say it is” warrants the same in response.

This is what happens when you have a media system entirely derived from and intertwined with capitalism.

Given the entire concept of being 'woke' is related to Du Bois's concept of double consciousness, there is no other read to the attacks on diversity, equity, and inclusion as simply anti-Black. When someone talks about being woke with contempt, they're just being racist (we all knew this).

You absolutely never know what to expect in a Doechii track. Shes somethin

That's right.

In case you were wondering if the GOP had contempt for the will of the voters at the state level, too: www.kcur.org/politics-ele...

Can we start a #farmkidfriday tag? *Technically* not currently on the farm but you can never take that outta me. Also look at those veins y'all 👀👀👀😂

When you spend all your time dehumanizing others, you, in turn, lose your own humanity.

Finally, some beautiful weather. Who else feeling like January been around like a houseguest who overstayed their welcome - GTFOH!

That arc toward justice won't bend itself
