So relevant, even today...

I feel the need to remind everyone that socialism is not a vow of poverty, but the exact opposite: it's looking at soft-handed owners and saying "where's the rest of my money, bitch"

They want to track autism, miscarriages, abortion, birth control use but don’t want to track measles, bird flu, Covid or salmonella. Ask yourselves why that is. They’re setting the stage to blame people for their disabilities. To slate them for elimination. It’s eugenics & it’s escalating.

RFK Jr. is furiously researching which far-right podcaster's custom labeled generic supplements are best for treating measles in the unvaccinated. The winner will be whoever demonstrates the most fealty towards Trump and the MAGA Confederacy and buys the largest amount of Trump memecoin.

The Democratic Party: Vote blue no matter who so we can vote as a block and oppose the Republican Party. Also the Democratic Party: *Rarely votes as a block (unless voting unanimously with Republicans) and frequently reaches across the aisle to vote alongside MAGA Confederates for MAGA policies.*

A horseshoe theory believer I saw today: The far left and the far right are exactly the same because the far left opposes Israel's genocide of Palestine, which is ANTISEMITIC!!! They're the same as Nazis, really. I'll never be able to take centrists seriously as people.

We must call mask bans what they are: Pro infection ugly laws. They promote the spread of disease. They encourage cosplaying 2019 “normal” even though the threat of Covid hasn’t passed & we have measles spreading too. If you can wear a mask, mask up now. We need visible solidarity to fight bans.

One of the men who organized the human SOS. Said most of the men there were rounded up without any prior criminal history, no evidence or due process. They were forced to sign a document stating they were members of a criminal gang. All they want is to be returned to their nation of birth..

Can't wait to hear from Zionists how it's antisemitism to say you shouldn't bomb aid ships carrying civilians in international waters

Still jarring seeing people say how awesome Bluesky is when so many people On Here are talking about how they're treated like shit. Palestinians' accounts keep getting deleted or labeled as spam. Black trans people get harassed or dogpiled. Muslim and Arab people get blamed for Trump. Just saying.

This is a friendly reminder that, regardless of what negative reports come out on Kilmar Abrego Garcia, the argument for his return has, and always should be, about the fact that he was denied due process and sent away. Everything else is secondary. People in the US deserve due process. Full stop.

"Terrorist" is a fascist white supremacist dogwhistle for "person I want to brutally murder without question or consequence." Any other definition lost its meaning generations ago.

When police stop you—whether while driving or simply while existing in public—they are well within their legal rights to HANDCUFF and ultimately ARREST you, for even the most minor infraction. Not nearly enough people know this. But Black people do. The rest of America is about to find out. Soon.

Less than 10% of the people of the United States of America are anti-vax. Yet our public health system has been hijacked by that sliver of irrational, harmful, lying, ignorant, arrogant, murderous part of our population.

“Eugenics isn’t just about eradicating the lesser people like myself, like people with disabilities, it’s about attaching disability to marginalized communities in order to slate them for eradication.” Fantastic crash course in eugenics, ableism & anti-blackness from @imanibarbarin.bsky.social

Next, they will jail mayors of so-called “Sanctuary Cities” Don’t act surprised when this happens.

I've got to admire the "US food safety standards are actually excellent" people saying that right in the middle of the bird flu crisis that mysteriously stops at the border with Canada and happened because cows are literally fed chicken shit.

“The MMR vaccine contains aborted fetuses” has to require a different response than all the shit RFK said up to that point. It just has to. If we all just post “sigh” or whatever and keep scrolling it feels like we’re crossing a rubicon we cannot possibly come back from as a society

I was teaching Intro to Sociology during the 2020-2021 school year. In the fall, I had my most optimistic class of students ever, inspired by Black Lives Matter. In the spring, I had my most cynical class of students ever, morally wounded by the push to get “back to normal” as COVID still spread.

Our collective denial of the ongoing threat of Covid has made it so people aren't able to process their trauma. We have an entire society of people with PTSD, pretending that everything is 'fine' & 'normal'. We need to admit to ourselves that 2019 is gone. We need to adapt, grieve & begin to heal

I’ve spent the last month interviewing people expelled to Costa Rica under the “invasion” proclamation. The treatment they were accorded at the border by CBP is some of the worst I have heard in 6.5 years of interviewing asylum seekers. Reports to come— some of the hardest I’ve worked on.

Don’t be surprised if the next marginalized community the far right decides to target and demonized is the disabled community. The normalization of the ‘R-word,’ acceptance pronatalist eugenics, and the proposal there should be a registry of people on the autism spectrum. “Lebensunwertes leben.”

ICE is a white supremacist gang of human traffickers. Any Democratic politicians who support ICE must be purged from the Democratic Party for the party to have any legitimacy.

Does anyone else think J6ers are cosplaying as US Marshalls, ICE & FBI to terrorize Americans and legal residents?

Democratic Party bipartisanship with the Republican MAGA Confederacy is collaborating with an enemy of the state. Anyone who "reaches across the aisle" needs to have their career ENDED!

I wonder how many of these masked ICE guys are proud boys or oath keepers or any of the vicious insurrectionists.

If you’re not fighting against mask bans because you think they “only” apply to those committing crimes… consider the following: Who decides who’s committing a crime? The police. POC who mask will be disproportionately targeted. Who decides if your medical exemption is “good enough”? Police 🧵

I recently saw a headline reading “Is Covid Rewriting the Rules of Aging? Brain Decline Alarms Doctors,” and while this decline may alarm doctors, my friend, this decline should alarm you as well.

Thinking of all the liberals and Democratic Party politicians who had an existential meltdown when some people said "Defund the Police" and then quadrupled down by seizing COVID funding to funnel to gangs of police mercenaries, in addition to "Fund the Police" excesses.

All of the doctors who were against vaccine mandates are now threatening to take away your right to get a Covid vaccine. This is their vision of medical freedom and bodily autonomy.

Hospitals & healthcare workers are being advised that masks should be required for anyone with fever or respiratory illness as a means of containing the spread of measles. Why isn’t this information being given to the general public? Measles cases are over 1000. People should be masking.

Israeli government: were doing genocide, it's great Israeli media: we're doing genocide, it's great Zionists On Here: How dare you call it genocide

Dear Democratic Party, the alleged "Resistance" to Trump, Trump has now declared de-facto martial law. Are you allowed to impeach him NOW??? Or will that anger the far-right oligarchs who own you too much?

"If Hamas just released the hostages, we'd let in humanitarian aid." Putting aside that Hamas has repeatedly offered this and Israel has rejected it, what part of "collective punishment is a war crime" do people just not understand?

I want to live in the alternate reality where Democrats and liberals didn't become pandemic-denying genocide supporters.

For no reason except it's on my mind, may I heartily recommend the movie Canadian Bacon? It's a super funny fictional story of a US President who decides it will help his happiness to invade Canada for no reason. Basically Nostradamus. But seriously, great film.

Democrats sell the plan as sending bombs to Israel to "defend itself." Republicans brag about the condos and resorts they plan to build. Both are the same plan: the systematic extermination of Palestinians and the complete destruction of Palestine. It's genocide with bipartisan support.

Liberals and Democrats who support Israel are no better than MAGAs. Both hold profound evil in their souls.

Every Democratic Party politician who supports Israel supports the intentional mass starvation of two million people. Tell me again how it isn't a genocide, tho, liberals, and how different Biden/Harris were from Republicans when they sent Israel a neverending stream of bombs to drop of Gaza.

Understand what is really being proposed here. Gazans are forced to use Israeli currency. Gazans are also starving and most of what little food makes it into the Strip isn't free. This plan isn't about Hamas. It's a demand that everyone in Gaza starve to death. m.jpost.com/israel-news/...

I've just seen some staggering data on how badly infections are affecting urgent care here *now*. It's hard to comprehend. It's hard to get your head round it. You need to see it to believe it. 👀
