JUST BECAUSE THE CLOWN CAR GOES VERY FAST DOES NOT MEAN IT ISN’T FULL OF CLOWNS

"Democrats have to accept anti-trans views within the party, just like we did with anti-abortion views, because we want to sabotage both and ourselves."

They are counting on a lack of solidarity. So what are we going to do? Show the fuck up

GROW A SPINE YOU FUCKING COWARDS @whitehouse.senate.gov @markey.senate.gov @warren.senate.gov @shaheen.senate.gov @schumer.senate.gov @repmarcykaptur.bsky.social @tomsuozzi.bsky.social

Now that I work in MA and live in RI, I am starting to realize how unprepared the people around me are for how vocal I will be about my beliefs. And I'm just over here like, bitch I'm from NH, I got that live free or die energy.

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

It is our duty to make sure that if democracy dies, she goes out bloody and still swinging. And let the cost of her defeat be so high that no one else dares try to trample her again.

say @whipkclark.bsky.social @markey.senate.gov @warren.senate.gov I'm gonna need you all to take more drastic action than sternly worded press releases and messaging bills that won't be allowed out of committee. meet up somewhere undisclosed without any digital devices and make a plan.

Elon Musk claims DOGE has saved $55 billion, but the numbers don’t add up. DOGE released a list of canceled contracts totaling $16 billion in supposed savings. However, nearly half of that came from an $8 billion ICE contract—except that contract was actually worth just $8 million.

Never forget the evil of the Nazis and never forgive those who praise or follow their ideology.

Where are the defenders of the US as Elon and nameless private agents infiltrate US agencies, commandeer US servers, steal US data, seize US money, march US officials from US buildings? Who sallies forth from the FBI? The CIA? Congress? DoD? The media? This is a coup—and America appears defenseless.

It’s important to know that a lot of productive activity is happening in person and offline, too. Not all of it can be broadcast online, but we’ve had hundreds of people showing up to our trainings, mobilizations, and more. Keep going. Tyranny is eroded by a sea of small acts. Everything matters.

Look, we tried to warn people. At this point, the only way out is through. Trump will precipitate a collapse and only then can we rebuild towards a better future. Our goal is to minimize the number of people we lose along the way. Build community, help others. Resilience is all we have.

i hate to be that girl but we're gonna need to really quickly move past complaining that everything is "unconstitutional" or whatever and start talking about what we are actually going to do to materially resist fascist attacks and defend marginalized communities. laws are fake. lives are real.

the threat of fascism hits different when you are firmly in community. find your people and build something resilient and beautiful. there is strength in solidarity.

"oh ho, but just last year you said running people over with with a big steamroller was wrong!” I exclaim delightedly as my enemy fatally runs me over with a big steamroller. it seems I have won this battle of wits
