Which is also why vaccines are under attack. Most people have forgotten you didn't name a baby until its first birthday because why waste a family name on a kid who was probably going to die?

Gods, it's like listening to the psychotropic-drug superfans scornfully dismissing the "talking therapies". Like, you know, who needs to ask a real person to describe what's going on with them, discuss it with them, and maybe even solve the problem at source? So ridiculously last-century. :/

I can’t believe I have to say this again do not follow what these Democrats are saying and for the love of God, do not sit down at a rally where they are charging you with horses and shooting into the crowd because they will shoot you in the head and kill you. Do not sit down at a mass protest.

Terry Moran worked at ABC for 28 years. Now, for calling Stephen Miller “hateful,” (which he 💯 is per his own family), ABC fired him to appease an authoritarian hypocrite who ran on “free speech.” This will have a chilling effect on all journalists. Fourth Estate fails. Authoritarianism advances.

People need to see what’s happening. ICE just took a dad while his teenage son watched, crying and powerless. Trump is ripping families apart—and some folks still say, “That’s what I voted for.” If that’s your take, that sentiment says more about you than it says about any undocumented immigrant.

It is 100% carrying water for the opposition to participate in this collective delusion that Dems for some reason need to answer for every teen who throws a rock rather than hold the Trump admin accountable for intentionally creating chaos and breaking the law to stoke violence. They are in charge.

I will be damned if I allow a bunch of Confederate-waving January 6th apologists give the American people a lecture on flag waving. There is ZERO reason to enter an argument about patriotism with people who still worship traitors to America 150+ years later. They. Are. Breaking. The. Law.

Childhood disease before vaccination is why we don't have a word for a parent who's buried a child. An orphan is defined by lack of parents, a widow by lack of husband, but before vaccines, almost every adult of childbearing age had buried at least one baby, if not more.

I’m not sure even how to describe it but being both child of a convicted perso. Whose deported and an Ivy League graduate People do really well with easy power dynamics that feed the savior complex The ones that involve making someone a PEER are much harder Even if it’s what is NECESSARY

Wait... what?! I actually can't really process how stupid this is. "Taking political disagreements into the streets" has been an absolutely basic bog standard element of protest at least tolerated by non-authoritarian governments for well over a century.

The thing about ABC firing Terry Moran for expressing a political opinion is He called Stephen Miller a man fueled by hatred That’s not a fucken opinion that’s like saying water is wet Its a fact Terry Moran was fired for accurately describing reality

The disparity btwn what’s actually happening in Los Angeles and the way it’s being mischaracterized is one of the biggest stress tests of modern media in recent memory. Botted socials, AI, old clips, declining literacy—it’s like seeing a broken emergency response system hit by a storm.

The folks hollering about “family values” are out here tearing families apart with unlawful ICE raids, militarized police, & the weaponization of government. All while ripping away food & healthcare from working-class families. Are the family values in the room with us?

There's always been autism. It was just "that boy's not right." It was just "they're touched in the head." It was just "deaf and dumb." It was just "hysterical." "Over sensitive." "Melodramatic." There's always been autism. You just chained them to a radiator and called it something else.
