Depressing how many people here on this alternative, upstart social media system insist that all social media is inherently bad and evil and that governments should have the power to silence people at a moment in time when the US gov't would love nothing more than to control our speech.

@padilla.senate.gov: "We’re a co-equal branch of government, our job is oversight and accountability... If there's an opportunity for me to ask a question in-person at a press conference in my home state, that's me doing my job."

youtu.be/ebsHov1ytVE?... This is what you won't hear on major media. Senator Padilla announcing himself before stating that he has a question. The agents immediately seized him.

Don't just say it's unconstitutional, remind people that the constitution is full of very good ideas designed to prevent authoritarianism, and most people who want to ignore it want that specifically because they are authoritarian.

Every year on Memorial Day, I share this video of French caretakers who take sand from Omaha Beach in Normandy, and scrub them into the letters to give them the gold coloring. They do this for all 9,386 US soldiers who died. France also gave us this land as American soil.

This is a such a great thread. A lot of times people put me on lists of "actually good male role models" which always makes me a little uncomfortable because very little of what I do speaks to the insecurity and fear young men have and sometimes I feel pretty guilty about that.

1/2: We have reason to believe that events on 4/19 and/or the 50501 Movement may be misrepresented by the Trump admin in an attempt to justify the use of military force. Let us be clear: our movement is pro-democracy and firmly grounded in non-violence.
