It's astonishing to me so few Americans think about how we're the only country in the history of the world to use nuclear weapons. And we did it to civilians. #endlesswar #militaryindustrialcomplex #peoplenotprofit

Always remember: the #1 way racism gets perpetuated is by pretending it doesn’t exist. Actually, that's kinda how most ills get perpetuated when you think about it. #erasure #injustice

Blaming Trump's election on the third of Americans who didn't vote takes on a whole different tenor when you rephrase that as: 2/3 of Americans participated in a system that resulted in Trump being elected. Always remember: the purpose of a system is what it does. #shamelection #systemstheory

In case you were wondering, Apple has made it impossible to submit a complaint about the Gulf of Mexico being displayed with an incorrect name. #gulfofmexico #orwell

I wonder what it would take for Americans to realize that peaceful protest never results in change? #anticapitalism #resist

There's nothing quite like having two billionaires who were born into wealth lay waste to DEI programs saying they want to return the US to a merit-based society. #eattherich #classconsciousness #anticapitalism

There have been marches and demonstrations in all state capitals and I've heard practically nothing about it. The narrative is being very tightly controlled. #protest #antiauthoritarian #manufacturingconsent

You know what I wish more people understood better? Cultists have been swindled, and we should respond accordingly instead of deriding them as being morons for getting sucked in by lies. #anticapitalism #changetheworld

People are making hay out of how if we can call a body of water a new name, then why not trans people? But that is the point. They WILL call a body of water a new name, but NOT trans people. #transrights #authoritarian #oppression

I'm seeing social media posts of Syber-trucks being vandalized with graffiti. I'm sure that makes people feel good but let me assure you it don't mean sh!t until they start doing it to all the other Tessla's already on the road. #anticapitalism #eattherich

Some people know about the Buddhist monks who self-immolated during the Vietnam war. Very few are aware that they did it to protest the Americans. #anticapitalism #vietnamwar #protest

It's staggering that we can look at our crumbling society, our lives of toil, the militarized police necessary to hold it all together, and still believe we're in any way Free. #fallofempire #anticapitalism #organize

I heard someone say once that people don't quit their jobs, they quit their boss and I agreed so hard I hurt myself. #anticapitalism

Thinking prompt: people call out government corruption, hypocrisy, and other wrongs as if merely doing so will result in change. But power doesn't care. Power is a bully. "What are you gonna do about it, really?" #corruption #powerdynamics #anarchy

Understanding US propaganda 101. The words "we the people" were written by wealthy, landowning, slaveholding Europeans, who saw only themselves as people. HW: efforts to expand the definition of "people" are only allowed when they don't threaten the existing power structure. #anticapitalism

Hey, have you heard the one about when the American people achieved class consciousness and rose up to overthrow their wealthy oppressors? Yeah. Me neither.

Corporations spend around $400 billion on advertising and marketing every year. And Americans think it's not propaganda because it didn't come from the government.

Maybe the reason we're obsessed with multiverse stories is because we're desperate to believe a better world does exist.

People would rather delude themselves that they can become the exploiters, than try to stop the exploitation.

"More than anything, she fought hardest against the idea that she wasn’t a 'real' woman because she couldn’t have children. I’m not sure enough people realize what that says about us as a society."

The problem with being a literal communicator isn't so much that you're a literal communicator--it's remembering that everyone else isn't.

Learning that "the dominant culture enforces itself" has been key to my understanding of oppression, power dynamics, and so much more.

A lot of people are saying the mess we're in right now all began with Reagan. But it didn't. The capitalists were furious with FDR and the New Deal and so began an organized, multigenerational plan to undo it all. Then they threw in some social regression. For like shits and giggles.

If you aren't scared out of your wits by this incoming administration, you're not paying attention. If you think people who are scared out of their wits shouldn't be--or deserve to be--you're part of the problem.
