it’s wild how the democratic party is not going to change and will continue embracing the tired centrists after a decade of losing power on all levels
it couldn’t ever be more clear that real classic nazi antisemitism is alright for the trump administrstion, what they have a problem with is criticizing the state of israel about how many kids they’re killing
here's one of the South African "refugees" that Trump has brought into the country
Ben of Ben & Jerry’s *arrested* after confronting RFK Jr. & Congress:
"They need to let food into Gaza. They need to let food to starving kids! Congress is paying to bomb poor kids in Gaza, and paying for it by kicking poor kids off Medicaid in the US!"
A reminder: if you are queer, you *are* porn to these people. There is no non-pornographic way for you to live that will keep you safe.
People need to be ready to specifically defend porn and erotica as art. There is nothing that the government does to censor porn that they won’t use on every marginalized group after. Banning porn means banning people of color, queer people, disabled people being depicted in sexual relationships.
Quick reminder when talking about stuff online. It's always Shut The Fuck Up Friday.

I don't know how to explain to people how terrible arresting Ras Baraka was/is. PLEASE CONNECT THE DOTS. They are going for the most protected classes NOW. What do people think is going to happen to regular people?

Aaaand there it is.
There is no plan. There is no 3D chess. The president has a toddler’s understanding of the economy and will continue to just do things (and then undo them, and then do them again).
i'll stop complaining about ai when ai stops being shoved down everyone's throats as a catch all solution to every fucking problem that it's not designed to solve

Newton's First Law of Motion: A body at rest tends to remain at rest; a body in motion tends to remain in motion.
This is good advice in times of paralysis and fear. Start by taking action.
The quote below is from Recipes for Disaster, our cookbook of direct action tactics.
crimethinc.com/recipesCrimethInc: "[Direct action] can be the best form of therapy, helping those who act to cure feelings of boredom, hopelessness, and impotence. When one is doing nothing, everything seems impossible; once one has begun doing something, it is easier to imagine what else is possible"

I hope it is very clear what antisemitism looks like, and I'll tell you what, it's not an op-ed condemning genocide.
Consider that while Rumeysa Öztürk spent 6 weeks in prison for her constitutionally protected speech, the president's friend wouldn't dream of worrying about such a thing.

It's impossible to build effective resistance to these roving bands of paramilitary thugs kidnapping neighbors off the streets and separating families when millions of people go back to Not Caring About This whenever the Democrats are back in power.
It's the same agencies. Same tactics. Same thugs.

Students Studying at Columbia Library Were Suspended for Protest They Took No Part In
Students at Butler Library during Wednesday’s Gaza protest faced harsh consequences, though several had their suspensions lifted days later.
Israel is preventing the WHO from sending incubators into Gaza.
Think about how savage, how barbaric, how evil, you have to be to defend that and defend the government doing that.

Trump administration threatens to arrest House Democrats over ICE facility incident
"There will likely be more arrests coming," a Department of Homeland Security spokesperson said.
While the lab leak itself is effectively a conspiracy theory, it's becoming clear that there was a literal conspiracy within the first Trump administration to gin up evidence and pitch it to journalists.

Martin Diaz came to the U.S. as a toddler, fleeing cartel violence with his family. They had proof of the danger—a letter from a Michoacán official. He married a U.S. citizen & was advancing his visa.
Then ICE showed up at his home in Spokane: no warrant, no ID

Every extra hour that ICE spends facing off with activists is an hour they can't spend kidnapping other people.
Every extra minute ICE has to spend contingency planning around activists and neighbors, every extra officer ICE has to put on a kidnap squad, is a drain on their efficiency.
i think it's good that we don't have free insulin because if we did then we wouldn't be able to afford to keep throwing fighter jets into the ocean
I know Great Barrington well and it is extremely hard to imagine any scenario on this earth in this small town that would require cops to roll out like they're going to war.
Scenes are repeating across the United States, passersby and local residents confront & resist Trump's ICE regime troops as they’re spotted kidnapping their neighbours. The regime continues its campaign of ethnic cleansing, appearing at homes and businesses masked and without warrants.

1) USPS did not lose $3.3b. It provided a service that cost $3.3b. *The Pentagon* loses you money, however, every time it accidentally yeets a fighter jet off the deck of a carrier
NEW: The U.S. Postal Service posted a net loss of $3.3 billion in this fiscal year’s second quarter mainly due to “significant challenges out of our control,” including workers’ compensation costs, Luke Grossmann, USPS chief financial officer, said at the open session of the governing board meeting

The Democrats might be one of the most pathetic opposition parties in existence.
They go on TV and talk about how outraged they are about literal nazi behavior and their response is empty slogans.
Exposing the names of the secret police is good, actually.

“Abolish ICE” is the moderate position. Radical is “prosecute every ICE employee under RICO.”
As I said, they’re going step by step. A mayor now. Labor activists a few days ago. And we’re only a few months in.
The answer is not retreat, but further commitment to the fight. Or they will keep taking more.
They're arresting judges. It won't be long before they start arresting politicians, journalists, & educators.
Every single time any institution & leader that has backed down has led to this. Compliance won't protect you: it leads to worse.
We need them to stand up. And we need to show them how.
