Im more convinced than ever that not a single fix to any problem will exist in my lifetime. We’ll never get healthcare. There will never be true equality. There will never… there will never…

The House and Senate both voted to loosen regulations on air pollutants like dioxin and mercury, which are associated with higher cancer risk.
GOP is good at the Luntz method of strategic word choice: selecting language carefully designed to trigger emotionally charged, intuitive responses that powerfully frame issues in ways beneficial to their political agenda (estate tax ➾ death tax)
We need to do that with Medicaid Work Requirements
I hate depression. It really distorts my view of people. At least I think it does since I believe that most people enjoy causing and watching people suffer.

This shit’s evil
Do people drink as much as is depicted in movies and shows?
They’re preparing with messaging already to preempt any protest. It’s sick.
They are coming for all of our social security.
The obsession with the Signal chat and not that the administration bypassed Congress to drop bombs is the perfect illustration of the Democratic Party’s disconnect.
Remember that this is where his discussions with El Salvador began. The migrant detentions there are the dry run. He wants to ship U.S. prisoners to El Salvador.We cannot sleepwalk through this.
Sending Americans to outsourced labor camps. This is not designed to stop at immigrants. Some of you may not want to hear this, but the assault on immigrants didn’t start with Trump, it simply accelerated.
Why can’t I post anything?
Jesus fucking Christ. ICE tortured a green card holder just because. Just because that’s who they are. The American Gestapo that has state backing to do this now.
This garbage needs to stop. Jews do not face any institutional hurtles whatsoever, and comparing them to “blacks” as a derogatory is very telling about both the writer and the overarching system regarding anti-black racism.
“The organization of the proletarians into a class, and consequently into a political party, is continually being upset again by the competition between the workers themselves” is part of the struggle. Through are the squabbling stay strong. A brighter day will come.
American society runs on the fact that people aren’t political. They aren’t plugged into what’s happening. People just weren’t paying attention and they are now suffering.

Cutting Medicare and Medicaid is wildly unpopular. That's why they're trying to jam these draconian cuts through right out of the starting blocks, before the American people tune into what's happening.
We need to buy time.
It’s wanting to abolish Section 504, wanting to cut Medicare, wanting to get rid of DEIA, wanting to stop people working from home. All of this will kill disabled people. When we tell you that pandemics lead to fascism, this is what we mean. When you excuse our deaths, these policies are pushed.
And you’re gonna happily let them do it.
Im reading the anti-communist manifesto and it reads like the manifesto of a school shooter with charisma.
They love disabled people in “inspirational” stories, until we ask for healthcare, jobs, and rights.
“Possibly setting a path towards Universal healthcare”… possibly?- put up or shut up. Universal healthcare is the last thing people like you want, and only sycophantic idiots believe otherwise.

Gang, at this point I’m too disillusioned to expect all of you to mask always (even though you should), but for the love of GOD, please at least mask at airports and on planes when you travel to events!!!

Democratic leadership should be expelled.
Makes sense, and many movements have neglected other oppressed identities, including labor movements. I think class consciousness could further our understanding of the way identity is used by capitalists to divide us. Class consciousness hasn’t been fully realized without understanding identity.
