🚨☎️ if you have time today or tmrw morning call your representative about HR 867, the IGO Anti-Boycott Act. They want to tell us we're not allowed to participate in BDS campaigns! THAT'S BULLSHIT! We have the right to spend our money how we choose. FREE PALESTINE πŸ‡΅πŸ‡Έ www.cair.com/press_releas...

If you're unsure how to feel about trans people playing sports with their identified gender as opposed to their assigned gender at birth, you're not alone. Many people are concerned that there are fairness or safety issues, but there's really no evidence that that's the case. (1/3)

I think the best path to getting our demands met is with a general strike - protests are good, boycotts are better but still not enough. A critical step towards general strike is to unionize your workplace or join and be active in your union. If you don't know where to start try workerorganizing.org

Waiting 30 minutes for a store employee to show up and get something out of a locked case makes me want to steal it just on principle

To be an anti-racist you also have to be an anti-capitalist

Musk's salute was nothing but a calculated distraction. Now everyone's talking about that instead of questioning how he was allowed to buy power and what he's doing with it.

Apparently saying "Free Palestine" in my bio makes me antisemitic. Let me be clear: Jewish people, just like all people, deserve to be safe and happy. Palestinian people also deserve to be safe and happy. My beef is with the state of Israel, IDF and anyone actively contributing to oppression.

If you are an employer, and you're making profits, but your workers are on food stamps - you're not smart, you're not "good at business," you're just selfishly cheating a system that gives you the power to exploit. Why would we think people like this deserve to make decisions about our economy?

This is what the trolley problem really looks like. Capitalists control the levers of power. Every time they cut corners on safety measures, every time they lobby against safety or environmental regulations, they are choosing their own profits over YOUR health and safety. This is not a just system.

Capitalists have an influence on US politics you and I can only dream of, and they use it to further enrich themselves at the expense of society and the environment. Our system is by the wealthy for the wealthy, it's got to go.
