I want you to pay attention to something. Remote workers are now often people like me, high-risk and disabled people who can’t safely access a normal Workplace due to Covid anymore. This is now being stigmatized, along with supporting trans rights, as unfit for work. That’s Nazi 101.

Israel to erase Palestinian village in Bethlehem According to reports, residents of Al-Na’man village, situated to the east of Bethlehem, have been notified by Israeli occupation forces of plans to demolish their homes and forcibly displace them.

I don’t think people realize the psychological terror of seeing these constant Nazi salutes is inflicting on Jewish people specifically.

I probably would have been writing a ton about Project 2025 in 2024 if it were not for the genocide. I'm sure that's true about a ton of the best policy researchers out there. The impact of Democratic Party-backed genocide comes through in a thousand different ways that are largely not measurable

Oh this! The Democrats embracing genocide and not fighting it took away so many of the people who usually help on policy stuff. Like people are all up in arms about who everyone voted for but what really hurt them is the lack of organizers

Amerah is trying to arrange surgery at a private hospital for Ayool so that she can save the hearing that she lost during the war if you can help her with the costs ❤️

"NPC" as an insult has its roots in 4chan memes and suggests not only that some categories of people aren't really people, but that they are disposable in a moral sense. It is not just an illiberal insult, it is a fascist insult with genocidally violent undertones.

Using Twitter regularly is highly unethical, and a significant personal failing for people that do.

"In other countries, this would be called 'an authoritarian coup.' In America, mealy-mouthed officials call our transition into a mafia state 'deeply troubling' and do little to curb the damage." -- HIDING IN PLAIN SIGHT (2020)

I am having more and more conversations that give me hope that folks are starting to wake up. With a nurse who is spending her lunch breaks explaining The Horrors to co-workers. With a stranger in the Costco parking lot who was vocally grateful for my bumper sticker. A shift is happening.

What’s happening with the US government reminds me of this story (great book btw): Libertarians took over a town in NH in 2004 and gutted its services, cut taxes, etc. Less than 8 yrs later things had gotten so bad that black bears were breaking into homes and killing people for the first time ever.

Seriously if your alt text says "read the image" you deserve a punch in the babymaker parts. THE POINT IS, YOU MISSHAPEN DILDOS, TO INTERPRET THE IMAGE. FOR PEOPLE. WITH VISUAL IMPAIRMENTS.

This is a concentration camp. They are describing a concentration camp.

And there it is. Same holds for activists, writers, "free speech" orgs, arts institutions and everyone else who has been silent for 15 months.

i hope new jersey democratic governor phil murphy is proud of himself for working with trump to doom NYC congestion pricing. hope aligning with a fascist was worth it, phil.

go away and stop haunting my text messages forever, you ghoul

We are being governed by the weirdest and most alien sociopath-political tendency of all time, one that can’t even conceive of friendship or even human connection existing outside the bounds of hierarchy and domination

donald trump threatened panama with american power so the panamanian government fashioned donald trump a concentration camp

For those of you who have noted that Substack is basically a Nazi Bar and you’re looking for a place to move your writing to, the info in this thread may be an option worth looking into.

We live in a post future world. We used to just live in a post-history world. But now there is also a feeling of no future. And the present is being eroded every day. Maybe we can all lose our minds enough to overcome this

That’s how you write a headline, people.

How completely jealous am I of Brazil right now

the only way forward for video games is self-published games made by properly-organised studios corporate ownership will fire all of you in the end.

At least if you fight back you can set the time and venue.

One distinctly perverse thing about fascism in the age of social media is authoritarian regimes used to go to great lengths to keep disturbing images of their depravity out of public view. Now our tinpot despots gloat about them proudly and have a million braying jackasses cheering them on.

You want better working conditions for some people. I want global liberation for the oppressed. We are not the same.

The purpose of a temporary restraining order is to block an action that may cause irreparable harm before you can gather enough evidence to show the complete harm.

In today's episode of doomerism isn't a strategy, here's a list of things you can do today to make the world around you suck a little bit less: Pick ONE thing and do it. bsky.app/profile/itsa...

The beginning of a eugenics plan? 🤔 Autism, ADHD, asthma, auto-immune disease, and chronic illness are a “dire threat to the American people and our way of life” and will be fixed "by ending Federal practices that exacerbate the health crisis or unsuccessfully attempt to address it"

actual conversation i overheard at disneyland once: "sweetie, no. we don't say the n-word in public."

Having to be twice as good as the most mediocre people on the planet is an insult.

True story: a few years ago, I was being interviewed by a reporter for the New York Times. I mentioned the history of eviction statutes and how they tied into Jim Crow. The reporter asked "what's Jim Crow?" When I explained, the reporter didn't believe me and said the US wouldn't do that.

Holy shit

I’m black

If anyone is interested in being a receiver on a GoFundMe- I have a friend in Gaza whose receiver can’t keep helping so they need someone new. He’s raising in dollars so he needs someone in the US. I (by which I mean @comradecat.bsky.social 😂) can set up a support chat to help walk you through it

When people talk about the "descent into fascism" there's a passive voice that misses that with every prison built, every budget dollar to police, every bomb paid for and dropped on Gaza, every student sanctioned for protest, every deportation, every border patrol, we laid the bricks one by one.
