What kind of long term success have most leftists that align themselves with democrats had Do they gain actual power in the party Or does the establishment repeatedly primary people that don’t toe the liberal line

UPDATE: Meta is continuing to censor anti-Musk ads. It has removed a Facebook ad calling for a boycott of Tesla, saying that it violates the company's policy on "unacceptable business practices" muskwatch.com/subscribe

the federal government represented in court that this man is not in charge of anything official

Protesting at the Tesla dealer by engaging in 6 hours of bad faith negotiating over a car and then leaving without signing any of the paperwork.

Also if you feel strongly about Eric Adams, you should call your city councilmember to express that and ask for their position. You’d be surprised. Hochul’s stance is highly disappointing but it doesn’t come from nowhere. Press all your electeds. City elections are in 5 months. Ask candidates too.

Unfortunately you have to primary everyone, not just because they don't have what it takes to fight, but because they don't have what it takes to rebuild. Last thing you want is them to win by default and then tread water until the next Trump comes to power

It’s vital that we shift the conversation from “if they come for X group then they could come for the rest of us next” to “an attack on any group IS an attack on all of us.”

Due to legal technicalities, Luigi Mangione is now the mayor of new york city

“If you're not careful, the newspapers will have you hating the people who are being oppressed, and loving the people who are doing the oppressing.” A classic quote from Malcolm X, who was assassinated 60 years ago today.

Keep defending your public services!

Buying Hooters to turn it into the world's first pay-what-you-can food pantry with virulently sexual undertones.

There’s something happening in this country.

Whitman Walker sold out the trans community for the false idea that it will protect care for everyone by continuing to receive federal funds. It won't. They'll come back for more. You can't appease fascists. www.erininthemorning.com/p/no-more-co...

NEW: Whitman Walker, a LGBTQ health center in Washington DC, has scrubbed its site of descriptions of gender affirming care services. This is pure cowardice and stabbing the trans community in the back. While services are not affected, it will limit access to resources if patients can't find them.

All these things happened too this week. It’s important to not lose hope. This is just the beginning. Good things are happening, and they will grow.

In an 8-plus-minute video, Hunter Schafer connected the passport to “historical rises of fascism and everything this new administration represents.” Read more ⤵️

For all our American neighbours who may be struggling to find accurate health information - thr Public Health Agency of Canada has a website you are more than welcome to use: www.canada.ca/en/public-he...

Super interesting how no former presidents have said a damn thing about the coup Speaks heavily to how we got here that Obama hasn’t said a word. 

It really sucks that democrats were like “we gotta stop saying that guy has sex with couches, it’s upsetting our donors who also do that”

happy friday! just leaving this here...

It's nearly 5am and Republicans just rammed through their pro-billionaire, anti-middle class budget blueprint. In order to pass massive tax giveaways for billionaires, they're going to defund Medicaid, slash veterans benefits, & force kids to go hungry. Make sure everyone knows it.

There are many mysteries and ambiguities in life but the nature of this gesture is not among them. It's a Nazi salute.

Big Tech is a huge problem. But gutting Section 230 will make Big Tech bigger and kill off alternatives like Bluesky and Mastodon. We're in the middle of a fascist coup but Senate Democrats are stuck on stupid on this issue. Call your Senators again and again until they get it BadInternetbills.com

The words and actions of America’s leaders show they believe that having dark skin or having a vagina is a reason a person shouldn’t be allowed to pilot a plane, while having a drinking or drug problem is not. That’s their priority, and they’re fine with the flying public suffering the consequences.

"Pardoning political loyalists, whose convicted conduct would otherwise fall on the extreme end of the category of so-called “violent criminals” he aims to punish, makes clear that the Trump admin is only performatively concerned with public safety." Read more ⤵️

This is what I mean by news outlets willingly letting themselves get language-policed by the far right. You used to be able to just call this a "Nazi salute." Now it's "a provocative gesture that resembled the controversial salute Elon Musk gave at a post-inauguration rally last month."

Cuomo is gearing up to run for Eric Adams’ second term.

Enough with the rationalizations and excuses: the Nazi salute is not a troll, and it is not an accident. The neo-Nazi movement is alive and well, and some of the most powerful people in our country have now actively embraced it.

We call them "the Greatest Generation" for shooting Nazis.

Musk censoring pushback against his policies so fiercely you would think it was a former partner asking him to do Dad stuff

What I fear is going to happen is that Trump will be unpopular, we’ll get some sort of weird capital controlled stasis, and what we have lost in the past month plus will never get rebuilt. Just like a new normal of austerity and hollowed state capacity. It’s imperative to deliver a real defeat.

I will vote for the first candidate who tells me they're going to make the biggest government possible. Reacher-sized agencies. Braun Strowman-level social benefits. Government so big it starts belching out National Parks and free healthcare. Chungus State.
