In the 20th century, they were known as "concentration camps." Now, they are simply called "housing."
Doesn't that sound so much more humane? Voila, problem solved!
I think some people hear “grants” and think that without them, scientists and government workers just have less stuff to play with at work. But grants fund salaries for students, academics, researchers, and people who work in all areas of public service.
“Pausing” grants means people don’t eat.
One of the best things you can do right now is read books. Buy them. Borrow them from the library. Gift them.
Read history. Read fiction. Read science writing. Read anything that shows you the world is bigger than what fascists say it is.
Read to remember why your resistance matters. 📚💙
Trump: I would like to blatantly do genocide.
CNN: Remarkable, sire.
A big misconception about Greenland is that since it’s labeled a Danish colony, its residents are just a bunch of white dudes named Kristian—which is extremely harmful and inaccurate.
The population is 85% Indigenous! It belongs to the Kalaallit people, not to Denmark and CERTAINLY not to the U.S.
America's richest 10% now hold 60% of the nation's wealth.
The bottom half of America? It holds just 6%.
Wealth inequality is eating this country alive.

More specifically, they mock your disability until they realize they can exploit it.

There’s no such thing as working productively with MAGA nihilists like Elon, Vivek and RFK, Jr. They want to bring down our Republic. Don’t normalize them by pointing out a few of their good ideas.
You can’t play nice with the leopards. Let them into your house and they will eat your face.
People use terms like “radical left” and “far left” to make it seem like our ideas are unpopular.
They are popular.
A majority of Americans support universal healthcare, tuition-free college, and living wages.
These terms are propaganda of the ruling class.
Sorry but your thoughts and prayers are out of network
I always say that I am pro-life for myself. I have always had my children. But it took me some time to learn that the Government takes 10 miles if we let them. If they have a say in any womans reproductive care, then they want to ban birth control.

Here’s a crazy idea. Let’s make sure the proposed new FBI Director can pass an FBI Background Check.
I hope folks remember that boycotting is a privilege some don’t have. Poor folks shop at Walmart. Disabled folks shop on Amazon.
We do what we can. Shaming others isn’t the way.
