it's amazing how prevalent the idea is that a bigot who calmly says "no sir" and "yes ma'am" is more civil than a kindhearted person who tells nazis to fuck off

Journalists and reporters and commentators are being fired for accurately repeating, as in word for word, what a person is on video saying.
We have well and truly lost freedom of the press and freedom of speech.
"it's so strange that half of us are like you should care about everyone even if it doesn't directly impact you, the other half are like, no."

The Republican Party is gonna go down in infamy. Which is small comfort. But richly deserved.
I am so ashamed of us.

You gotta be some kind of monster to be proud of canceling Kermit and Stephen.
It's not "life" finding a way, Molly.
My absolute first thought.

All I'm saying is if you have yet to see Superman, run don't walk. It's that good.

This @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social video is absolutely INCREDIBLE. The numbers he cites, the strategy and results they produced β itβs the future. When have you heard *any* campaign talk about this, ever? (Video split in 2 to fit in Blueskyβs limits)

70% of eligible voters did not vote for him. He doesn't have a mandate. He has a sliver.
This is fine.
ππ― Again, the casual ease with which weβve decided neither the law nor the constitution nor our intβl treaty commitments (which are also part of US law) matter at all is indicative of how far weβve collapsed into authoritarianism & how not punishing things like Iran-Contra & Iraq 2003 got us here.
Why are any democrats (not counting Fetterman, he's an asshat and doesn't count) voting for ANYTHING brought to the floor by the fascist regime?
Every time it's like a knife to the back.
Thank goodness we have Jack Posobiec to inform us that grown men trading mean tweets is how "high agency males" communicate with each other <checks notes> directly. Because that's not what I would have called it.
But "due process" isn't important if you're innocent.
Yup. And IMHO, too bad Charlie. Booker still should have voted no. But, obviously, that's not the world we live in.
They really and truly want us dead.

Somebody please explain to me why ANY Democratic Senator would vote yes on ANY nomination brought by the fascist regime?
FOLKS. JUST. SAY. NO.

Letter published in Portland Press Herald: Rep. Laurel Libby, R-Auburn, recently used my second-place finish in the 1,600-meter run, and that of my teammate in the 800-meter run, to malign Soren Stark-Chessa, the trans-identified athlete who finished first. One of the reasons I chose to run cross-country and track is the community: Teammates cheering each other on, athletes from different schools coming together, and the fact that personal improvement is valued as much as, if not more than, the place we finish. Last Friday, I ran the fastest 1,600-meter race I have ever run in middle school or high school track and earned varsity status by my schoolβs standards. I am extremely proud of the effort I put into the race and the time that I achieved. The fact that someone else finished in front of me didnβt diminish the happiness I felt after finishing that race. I donβt feel like first place was taken from me. Instead, I feel like a happy day was turned ugly by a bully who is using children to make political points. We are all just kids trying to make our way through high school. Participating in sports is the highlight of high school for some kids. No one was harmed by Sorenβs participation in the girlsβ track meet, but we are all harmed by the hateful rhetoric of bullies, like Rep. Libby, who want to take sports away from some kids just because of who they are. Anelise Feldman Freshman, Yarmouth High School Yarmouth
