Donald Trump letting you know how the authoritarian capture of the media is going, in case you missed it. Unlike other authoritarians in places like Hungary and Poland he has no worries about advertising his authoritarian take over of the media.
It’s a flawed democratic republic, honey. Of course racist electeds want to secure their seats by ensuring most votes come from fellow bigots.
And I do mean “cis”: trans women, trans men, and nonbinary people all seem to take the actual horrific implications of these conversations WAY more seriously than many cis men seem to.
body horror forced upon you by authoritarian monsters is a threat we viscerally understand.
Yep. If you dig into literally anything you hate about America, the answer is always going to be racism and misogyny.
Some people think it's always capitalism, but a lot of very bad decisions made by capitalists -- decisions that PROVABLY lose money -- are motivated by racism and misogyny.
Yes. Fewer unwanted pregnancies are good! And people are waiting longer and being much more thoughtful about becoming parents.
Also there is no problem with birth rates, there has just been a collapse in teen pregnancy rates and the (mumble)philes are mad about not enough pregnant teens.
my take on birth rate discourse: If the only way our species can keep going is by forcing the half of the population born with Unlucky Organs into reproductive slavery, we should go extinct, and good riddance
You have feds in your timeline. Most of your followers are bots. You reference a 30 year old game. While saying you're 30. You use slurs in a way that is not reclaiming. You don't understand what democracy is. You don't understand what socialism is.
If you are not an op, you are a complete fool.
The people of the country did want that when they enthusiastically voted for Trump. They’re getting what they voted for - terrorizing cities who care about their immigrant neighbors.
These ghouls can face the firing squad, just as he and his wife did.
so Janet Mills was on the board of directors of a civil rights organization for 20 years, and while it was a women's rights org her co-founder of The Maine Women's Lobby, Lois Galgay Reckitt was a Lesbian and the origination fought for LGBT rights
20 years worth of work shows she fucking care.

In the 1920s, there was an enormous Klan-aligned caucus in the House of Representatives that passed an immigration restriction bill designed to keep out Catholics and Jews because they supposedly posed an existential threat to American civilization. 100 years later, here we are.
The willingness of racists to sabotage their own lives just for the chance to hurt someone else continues to be the most perplexing part for me. I don't hate anyone more than I love myself.
It's very bad, because there's a genuine problem here—the Israeli state is incredibly evil, people are rightfully furious about that and how much support the U.S. state gives them, American Jewish communal institutions have lashed themselves to it—and also it feeds directly into insane bigotry.
Hey Queen,
Get high today. You deserve it 😘
owillis.bsky.social 18 hours ago Democrats are on the path to winning this year, but it is by default. The party has done a horrific job on politics from almost the minute Trump was defeated in 2020. So, sure, they are winning right now - but it's because we have no other choices. Not exactly a ringing endorsement.
This world weary cynicism poses as knowledge but it’s actually just the mirror image evil twin of Murc’s Law. Only Democrats have agency *when they lose*, but when they win it’s only by default and because of Republicans’ agency.
How it’s playing in France. 🤡
Everyday I wake up and there's a new silicon Valley guy telling how they're going to recreate slavery...
Lightning kills twice as many Americans every year than murder on the NYC subway.
our mayor is dope. Breaking bread with New Yorkers. He’s just so good at this.
Jim Cramer suggests on CNBC that Trump could “bomb Tehran into the Stone Age” until Iran reopens the strait, citing U.S. bombings of North Vietnam in the 1970s. Carl Quintanilla points out to him that Hanoi won that war.
White voters don’t want social programs for everybody. I certainly do. But I’m not a white working class man.
His recovery was for white people only. Dems could sweep every office in this country if they cranked up the racism and misogyny. Alas, if someone they hate isn’t being harmed, republicans won’t go for it.
we remain firmly on track for 'republican president leaves the country an omnishambles, next democratic president is punished for not cleaning it up fast enough'
conservative evangelicalism is the direct theological offspring of slaveholder christianity and it contains all of its pathologies, part infinity
There is a constant fantasy of adding white working class voters to the Democratic coalition without any offsetting consequences. It's a byproduct of thinking of Black voters as fixed objects and not humans with agency.
And no one ever learns.
"Christianity, to be sure, comes in both liberationist and authoritarian interpretations, but it is anti-pluralist by default."
We will not achieve dunctional democracy unless we face this fact.

I suggest blocking anyone who unironically uses the phrase "controlled opposition"
