there’s no reason not to do this. it’d probably end up with another kind of constitutional crisis, which is exactly why it should happen.

You either draw a line in the sand now and vow to fight and oppose this administration at every turn or you’re a fascist collaborator and should be branded as such for the rest of your existence

Happy Tax Day.

If you paid $1 In federal income taxes, you paid more than: Tesla in 2024 & 2022 AT&T in 2021 Nike in 2020 FedEx in 2020 Dish Network in 2020 Amazon in 2017-2018 Elon Musk in 2018 Jeff Bezos in 2007 & 2011 Carl Icahn in 2016-2017 Yes. It’s time to tax the rich.

The crazy thing about humans is this: We could provide food, water, shelter, healthcare, & education to everyone on earth. The reason we don’t is because we’ve decided to put profits first. That’s it. The acquisition of bits of green paper over all else is a choice. Greed is holding us back.

Star trek had a lot of hard lines over the years, but this remains the fucking hardest

Following orders didnt work at Nuremberg, it damn sure won't fly now. Any cop, ICE agent, or badge wearing person who continues to collect a check from this government should be held accountable just like that orange piece of shit. All cops are class traitors. Period.

Just clarifying, though this is not difficult to grasp: Anyone working on an industry project with a notorious transphobic bigot is OK with transphobic bigotry. The end.

pretty crazy watching the american president on live tv in the oval office planning the construction of concentration camps in a foreign country to house americans

"Diversity is discrimination" is literally Orwellian language, like "war is peace, hate is love, slavery is freedom." You can find it at civilrights.justice.gov

deeply hate the distinction of "American citizens" here. it's also bad if they send non-citizens to a gulag. it's bad if—gasp—they send undocumented people to a gulag. it's bad if they send literally anyone to a gulag!!!

When Stephen Miller says he will deport legal residents for exercising their freedom of speech, he is preaching hate for America. MAGA does not love America, or Americans.

They cannot make it more obvious what they're doing and where they're taking us. For the love of god. See it. Hear it. Fight against this shit before there's no fighting to be done. Please. Give up these delusions that this isn't happening.

Not Antisemitism (according to MAGA): - Firebombing a Jewish governor‘s house during Passover - Doing a Sieg Hitler salute - Eating dinner with neo-Nazis Antisemitism (according to MAGA): - Saying Israelis and Palestinians deserve rights and dignity - Using freedom of speech on campus

Please CBS: counter-sue and fight back. Freedom of the press is literally in the constitution. Don't cave. Stand up! Fight back!

This clown is going to become mayor of NYC. It is an absolute indictment of the democratic party and our society at large. We as a collective keep hitting ourselves in the face. No, I don't live in NYC, but these facts should be pretty obvious to any America willing to admit that we're FUBAR

No it doesn’t. No it isn’t. No it wouldn’t.

Stop using AI. Yes, even just for fun. AI is built on STOLEN images and text. That’s right: by using it, you’re stealing from your friends. There is NOT ethical generative AI. Bonus bullshit: it is HORRENOUS for the environment. (Yes, even the cutesy profile photo cartoon things.)

Great article by Sherrilyn Ifill: ‘Are you ready to march for the most despised members of our society? Will you call your representatives about those who are imprisoned?’ By targeting prisoners and criminals first Trump is banking on the fact you won’t object. Please America prove him wrong!

AOC: We must acknowledge the terrifying moment we are in right now. What we are hearing and seeing with our own eyes is, in fact, happening. We are watching our neighbors, students, and friends being fired, targeted, and disappeared. It is real.

yeah man, please make my 85 year old great aunt prove her citizenship to vote in rural georgia, this definitely isn’t reminiscent of anything in the american past

We need to primary @heinrich.senate.gov who continues to vote to confirm Trump nominees. We also need to shout him down anytime he speaks because he's just a dirty hypocrite.

If the Trump administration actually cared about antisemitism, they would deport themselves.

So many of you good liberal Democrats conspired to bring us to this point. Equating any criticism of Israel's ongoing genocide with terrorism. Tossed our country's bedrock principles about speech into the shitter so Israel could go on killing. Calling peaceful protests anti semitic.

To the vote blue no matter who crowd: go f#$k yourselves

The Smart People said "Abolish ICE" was too radical. Then ICE kidnapped students, sent innocent people to a mega prison, broke into a car to take a mom from her daughter, and tried questioning elementary kids while lying that they had parents permission. Ask yourself: which part is more "radical"?

Ambassador Spock modeling the proper “fuck you, make me” response to intimidation tactics. Our current-day institutions could learn a lot from him.

The lesson for universities is you may as well fight back. You'll lose the money either way. The only question is whether you keep your dignity.

The United States is the Land of Bad Faith and Home of the Hypocrites

Dear American universities, If your ‘business model,’ mandates that you turn your students over to extralegal kidnappings…your business is Fascism.

Everybody’s saying it…

All I keep thinking about is that if/when Dems regain power, every action to restore normality or basic functioning of governmental institutions will be covered by the national press like it’s a controversial, partisan power play on par with a coup.
