I believe nonviolent protest is critically important and in fact the single most effective driver of change (that doesn’t come with an indefensible body count) I also believe the time to lecture protesters on protest tactics during a fascist incursion is after you got arrested with them

What happened last night and today was manufactured propaganda by the Trump admin to justify using the military against Americans. Let us be clear: the military should never police civilians without a request from the state. So much for the so-called party of states’ rights and law and order.

The feds kidnapping and trafficking people is a violent crime. Protesting it is fighting back against abuses of power. The government claiming protestors started the violence is DARVO—Deny, Attack, and Reverse Victim and Offender. It’s what abusers do when they face consequences.

And people ask why kids don't go out more these days and parents don't make them anymore... These kids were allowed to walk a couple blocks over to the store. That's it. That's why these parents were torn away from their other child (who saw his brother die) and denied attending the funeral.

Elon threatening to just leave people on the ISS is making a pretty good case for why you nationalize your space program!

this & every story like it is an advertisement. "AI" has not done and cannot do any of these things, you could make a stronger claim that some video game enemies are alive because they take cover when shot at

I don’t want to live in a world where people are in jail and barred from work for smoking weed but an unelected man actively abusing ketamine faces no repercussions for illegally seizing all of our data and making decisions that kill hundreds of thousands of people

been trying to figure out the feeling of the forced march to AI, a thing that no one wants or needs and will almost certainly make the world worse—the way it's being imposed from every direction, like someone just flipped a switch without asking—and I think I've settled on the leadup to the Iraq War

The more people who are denied care and left to die, the more profitable it is for health insurance companies. Your reminder that for-profit healthcare isn't healthcare. It's an exploitation of sick people and transfer of wealth from the working class to the mega-rich.

I actually want to say this really loudly because I am not seeing other non-Jews say it enough. The Israeli diplomat shooting was an antisemitic hate crime. Yes, most allegations of antisemitism within the anti-genocide movement are bullshit. THIS was antisemitism parading as anti-genocide.

Republicans are trying to rip health care away from babies, disabled children, and seniors. It’s not efficient. It’s just plain cruel. We need your voice in this fight. Please call 202-224-3121 and tell your representative to vote NO on cuts to Medicaid.

Preventing food from reaching citizens without freedom to leave is barbaric. It's a medieval tactic that anyone in the 21st Century, be they progressive or conservative, should not allow. Furthermore, it must be considered a war crime, and those responsible should be tried in an international court.
