It's always been there, just with different names, shapes and forms over the years.

It's unbelievable that there are millions of people who see all of this & STILL vote to support these ppl this fall. I could never hate other groups so much that I would lend support to sociopathic politicians who treat me like cattle to slaughter for entertainment. But here we are....

The poor & working class families whose SNAP/Medicaid will be cut are the same ones expected to fight this vanity war. Suffer at home, sacrifice abroad.

I see why they fear us so much. Because a people that can do that can do anything.

When Jesse Jackson was born, he couldn't register to vote. When Jesse Jackson died, he was eulogized by a Black president & vice president. The man kept hope alive even in death.

Bernard LaFayette, the advance man who did the risky groundwork for the voter registration campaign in Selma, Alabama, that culminated in the passage of the Voting Rights Act of 1965, has died. https://cnn.it/4l9weqG

There's no issue with voting for that man because you think he's a stronger candidate on the merits. But there is a problem if you support him because he's the best candidate that white people are willing to accept [in a white minority state no less]

I'm starting to to realize assimilation and appeasement have been deeply incentivized survival tactics for non-Black people. That means we can't expect others to have the same political will to question or challenge whiteness as consistently and reliably as we do

All I know is that voting based on the fear of "how white people will react" almost never works out in the end. Thought we learned that lesson with Biden...

A lie told once is questioned. A lie repeated often enough becomes accepted. And once it becomes ‘common sense,’ people stop investigating it. That is how deception survives. - Malcolm X

They have to lie bc they know his popularity ratings have cratered to all time lows & a prolonged military conflict will inspire massive antiwar protests that shatter their poll numbers during an election year. They have to lie to you so much that you believe the deception & stay home

The idea that this will be over in four weeks is magical thinking/ propaganda. I'm pretty sure they had an intern copy and paste those talking points from a George W Bush speech...

War crimes to cover up sex crimes.

How Ithaca is Leading New York State’s ‘Multifaceted’ Reparation Efforts Ithaca is leading New York State’s reparation efforts with a passed proposal that will allocate $50,000 of Ithaca’s 2025 budget to funding a study on reparations for Black residents.

“It's been true throughout our history that when Black people get free, we all get free... We're going to have to ensure that the legislature and the governor follow through on those recommendations." - @avtorres4.bsky.social

"The men implicated in the Epstein files reinforces that I spend half my life explaining to men that their simplified, optimistic view of other men doesn’t line up with the experience of women and girls trying to dodge sexual harassment, assault and abuse attempts." - Leslie Morgan Steiner

DoJ cases against protesters keep collapsing as officers’ lies are exposed in court String of embarrassing defeats for prosecutors as experts condemn DoJ effort to cast people as ‘violent perpetrators’

"In Chicago, of 92 people arrested for assaulting or impeding officers last fall, 74 cases have resulted in no charges; in 13 cases, charges were filed and dismissed; and five charged cases were still pending. . . there have been no convictions.

And those same people are still in the business of minimizing & dismissing Black radical ideas as punchlines. Look at what they did to "woke," "CRT" and "DEI." They keep recycling the same Jim Crow playbook. And the same ppl keep falling for it...

I am somebody! This is one of Jesse Jackson's greatest gifts to me.

We've lost a giant today. May he rest in peace.

Rev Jackson also championed human rights struggles during the rise of neoliberalism at home and neocolonialism abroad—demanding an end to apartheid in South Africa and Palestine. He was even among the earliest public critics of Big Tech and the industry's complicity in racial injustice.

Reverend Jackson's progressive platform was Bernie before Bernie, except he was deeply convicted with a moral clarity on racial injustice as an organizing principle of American racial capitalism. He turned the energy of the Black freedom movement into a force that redefined American politics

The late Reverend Jesse Jackson is the chief architect of the modern multicultural Democratic coalition. He brought millions of disaffected voters into the political process with his presidential runs in the 80s and fought for rule changes that made Obama's 2008 victory possible

What's scary is that this generation of advocates wasn't really trained to confront eugenics as a political project. We were taught structural analyses of social inequality bc biological notions of difference were assumed outdated & irrelevant. now we have to collectively rebuild that muscle memory

So it's not a major leap for tech oligarchs to hold similar beliefs about the biological Inferiority of people based on intelligence & immutable characteristics. Eugenics is driving our politics right now from immigration to antivaxxing, abortion, transphobia and so much more

Elon Musk posted about race almost every day in January Many social media posts by Tesla CEO on his platform are indiscernible from those of white supremacists, say experts

Race science is essential to the development of AI. The desire to create "machine intelligence" that is "superior" to "human intelligence" presupposes that intelligence is measurable, comparable & hierarchial—central pillars of race science ideologies
