Suggesting the CHILDREN in the Texas floods deserved to die because off of the political beliefs of people you don’t even know makes you a fascist πŸ€·πŸΌβ€β™€οΈ

Is it really art if capitalism forces you to create things that sell instead of expressing your true artistic intent?

Dear educators,

504/IEPs are NOT optional. They are MANDATORY.

Sincerely,
A Disabled person tired of watching Disabled students not have a chance to succeed because their teachers refuse to follow basic guidelines to make them successful.

Disabled kids like mine rely on Medicaid to survive; this bill cuts Medicaid.

I don't know how else to say that medically complex disabled children will die as a result of this bill.

There are only three political positions in America today

1) I like the fascism

2) I'll acquiesce to the fascism (reasons for this one vary: cowardice, access, denial, misguidedly thinking that acquiescence is savvy, etc)

3) I oppose the fascism

The rest is details

Dems: excludes certain demographics that don’t fit their vision, including Disabled people
Also Dems: I wonder why we keep losing elections.

The time for change is NOW.

If you don’t include Disabled voices in political organizing, you’re ableist. Disabled people, more than ever, need an outlet to advocate for our community and by excluding our voices, it proves you don’t care about us.

Stop silencing #Disabled voices. Our voice matters too.

meme format where a man from an anime is looking at a butterfly and asks if it's a pigeon, but instead the man is Americans, the butterfly is labeled "basic human rights” and the quote is "is this communism?"

probably a good time to bring this back

#ChronicIlness Thoughts:

There should be a group chat feature on MyChart so you can make sure all of your doctors are on the same page.

legalising assisted dying when you're simultaneously slashing disability benefits is simply coercing people into suicide and could legally be considered manslaughter

Bravery is wheelchair users putting their bodies on the line to stop Medicaid cuts.

Shame is arresting them instead of listening.

Medicaid is a lifeline β€” not a line item.

All of this is showing me how much political and geographic education the US lacks for its citizens.

Clearly the 2 classes you take in high school weren’t enough.

All wars since WWII have been illegal. None of them sanctioned by congress.

We need real change in this country and it started way before Cheeto was elected

A cancer center in Jordan treats kids from Gaza, but only a few dozen have arrived Children from Gaza with cancer are finally making it to Jordan for long-promised treatment. But a plan to allow as many as 2,000 patients out of the war-torn enclave has slowed.

Every war since WWII has been unconstitutional and not sanctioned by Congress. We need real change in this country.

Cheeto is just loud about it.

PS: your hero President Carter funded the Indonesian Genocide in the 70s.

PPS: none of the wars since WWII have been congressionally sanctioned. America just involves itself because we think we own the world.

Neolibs are really out here acting like Obama, Biden and all the presidents before them didn’t commit war crimes. Just because you didn’t follow international politics until Cheeto got elected, doesn’t mean they didn’t commit war crimes, bomb the Middle East, and kill innocent civilians.

They won’t. They want to be a secret gestapo.

3 things can be true at once

1. The anti-semitism and genocide Jewish people experienced in Europe before, during, and after WWII that led them to flee Europe for Palestine was atrocious.

2. The systematic genocide of Palestinians is atrocious.

3. Iran has a right to defend itself.
