“Climate change will manifest as a series of disasters viewed through phones with footage that gets closer and closer to where you live until you're the one filming it.”
There are far more disabled people pretending to be well than there are pretending to be sick.
Being on disability is not fun.
You’re forced into legislated poverty. Treated like a “useless eater”. Shunned, abandoned and constantly questioned.
It’s dehumanizing 🧵
fuck 4th of July. fuck your parties and your fireworks. there is nothing to celebrate. this country is evil.
Trump’s budget bill is a disaster for public health.
It’s the biggest cut to health care in history.
12 million people will lose health insurance.
Hundreds of hospitals will close.
1 in 4 nursing homes will close.
Millions more families won’t have enough food.
BREAKING: The Senate just passed the so-called "One Big Beautiful Bill Act," gutting Medicaid, defunding Planned Parenthood, and supercharging funding for ICE to carry out mass deportations.
Are you paying attention?
We now have a concentration camp in Florida.
Stop pretending any of this is normal.
If you claim to be a good person and you're not outwardly opposing this regime, you're not a good person.
Be human.
It’s not “socialist” to advocate for universal healthcare.
It’s obscene that the richest country in the world doesn’t consider healthcare a basic human right.
If you want to Make America Healthy Again, it starts with healthcare.
Everything else is secondary.
🚨MAJOR BREAKING: Senate Democrats have forced EVERY WORD in Trump's 900 page Big Beautiful Bill to be read on the floor before the vote.
The move will delay the vote to cut Medicaid and SNAP, raise energy costs, and give tax breaks to the ultra-rich. This is historic.
Launching the U.S. into what could be yet another unpopular and costly forever war, while simultaneously pushing for an unpopular budget bill at home that will take food and healthcare away from millions of people.
The "peace president."
They’re going to try to make you feel insane for opposing this war. They’ll ignore protests and downplay any opposition. They’ll try to strongarm you into submission.
They did it with Iraq and they’ll do it again.
And then a few years later they’ll pretend they were with you all along.
No one should be forced to live in legislated poverty.
We could feed & house everyone.
We could agree that healthcare, education, paid time off, childcare & clean air and water are basic human rights.
Abolish the billionaire class. Make corporations pay their share.
That’s all it would take.
DOCTOR: What usually triggers your flares?
ME: Waking up.
The hospital in Georgia didn’t “save a life”
They had that chance when Adriana Smith sought medical care. They could have saved her & her fetus.
What they did was carry out a medical experiment without consent.
They failed her in life & then robbed her of dignity in death 🧵
The use of photos of Adriana Smith heavily pregnant that have featured in almost all media about this is so gravely misleading that it's a story in itself. These pictures are from her first pregnancy. She died before she was far enough along to do a glowing smiling maternity shoot for baby Chance.
it would be so awesome if yall didn’t only wear masks at explicitly political actions and instead saw your choice to wear a mask in, at the very least, public indoor spaces at the political action it is: one in direct opposition to the eugenic policies we’re being forced to live under.
Please read it all and fuck this system. Adriana and her family didn’t deserve ANY of this my fucking god.
ICE targets immigrants.
RFK Jr targets the disabled, elderly & vulnerable.
The whole regime targets marginalized people, those living in poverty and LGBTQ+ individuals.
They’re targeting everyone who they’ve deemed “less than”.
Everyone is expendable under fascism. It comes for all eventually.
Apparently this person was asked to provide medical documents that proved she needed to mask. This is why “health exceptions” to masks bans don’t work.
Masks are under serious threat at being banned widely due to politicization. This would be a public health disaster. If you are only wearing a mask at protests, please consider also wearing them elsewhere. The more people mask, the more we normalize masks and protect them against bans.
great reminder to all of those Democrats and liberals saying that we need to abandon red states because they are gerrymandered into right wing autocracies where the vote isn’t in their favor instead of accepting that we are gonna have to fight for every American no matter where they are.
#NoKings protest at the Minnesota State Capitol in St. Paul ❤️
This is why disabled people have been begging you to mask up for years.
This is why we’ve said that mask bans pose a threat to our survival.
This is why we don’t want folks to say ICE agents are “wearing masks”.
Society is being conditioned to see masking as “bad”.
It will kill us.
if you care to think of yourself as an ally to marginalized people, as a comrade of mine, but you are not wearing a respirator at a protest? you’re not wearing one on transit you took to and from? why?
who are your actions in alignment with?
Wow San Diego showed out for No Kings!
Los Angeles. Just wow.
made a new account, hoping to find mutuals and new friends!
If you see a fascist taking someone’s mobility aid, please speak up (if safe to do so).
Record them. Upload it to social media. Make sure the world is watching.
Disabled people deserve to be included in resistance efforts, but all too often they’re the first to be harmed.
Protect one another.
