To any Democrat who ever said about any issue, "Maybe if we agree with Republicans just this far, they'll stop there," remember that you were wrong, it was obvious at the time, and you really should never believe that again about any issue, ever.
This is disgusting and I condemn it and everyone who inflicts this torture. Just the most utterly evil and cruel shit, continuing to ooze forth without pushback from anyone in power.
When I got the contract to write a history of concentration camps in 2014, I hoped to keep the US from ending up here. That didn't work out! But now it's critical to understand how much is already in process and the enormity of what's coming. The sooner we act to stop it, the more people we'll save.
Notice how the popular media narrative has moved on, while people on the ground in Minneapolis are still struggling and crying out that things are as bad as ever. This is how fascist regimes operate — overreach, recalibration, normalization. Get louder, not quieter.
The right way to get into the Epstein files.
Canada has to stop sending military equipment to the US. It has to revoke the country’s “safe” status as soon as possible to permit sanctuary for refugees. At this time, bc the US has “safe” status, if you are in America you are not eligible for asylum in Canada.
Wikipedia is the best single thing the Internet has ever given us and it's not even close
One million starved children and no shortage of food
this is one of the worst crimes in human history and the entire global north and all of us in it share the responsibility
Children are dying of starvation, many are severely malnourished and medical staff becoming too malnourished to work while aid is withheld other than Israel sanctioned sites where people risk being shot. This scale of suffering is utterly inhumane - when will governments act?
Infinite love and support to the people of Iran and Palestine and anywhere else on earth unfortunate enough to be caught in the stupid, bloodthirsty gaze of America and Israel

Israel hasn't stopped gunning down the Palestinians they're starving, as those Palestinians try to feed themselves
There is nothing wrong with continuing to say it: these are war crimes, this is genocide, this is murder. It must be stopped, and those perpetrating the crimes must be held accountable
Was just thinking, it is really nice to know that so many people agree that kidnapping our neighbors sucks beyond words.
It is bizarre the way people with guns, bulletproof vests, riot shields, tanks, and other military gear act like rocks are an equal threat. It’s madness! If you are scared of rocks and think the punishment for having them thrown at you should be death, you shouldn’t be in law enforcement!
The cruelty in today's politics feels horribly corrosive. Bringing up that hard-working immigrant families — undocumented, yes, but not violent criminals — are being ripped apart based on immigration status doesn't bring compassion or even pause, but gleeful cheers.
If this open Nazi shit makes you feel safe, your soul is broken.
She’s out!! They have released Ozturk from ICE custody!
SICKOS YES YES YES
A 2-year old US Citizen was deported Friday to Honduras.
“The judge on Friday scheduled a hearing for May 16, which he said was ‘in the interest of dispelling our strong suspicion that the Government just deported a U.S. citizen with no meaningful process.’”

It’s so damn evil.
I have an elderly family member with mental health challenges. Bureaucratic documents make him feel paranoid, like he has done something wrong. It has massive impacts on him. At times he has gone missing or needed hospitalization in these moments.
This letter would ruin him.
She wrote an article in the student newspaper. That’s all she did. The U.S. can’t call itself a free country if that gets you sent to jail.
Again, this is how you know the whole DOGE thing is absolute bullshit. We’re apparently on the brink of financial ruin at all times when it comes to Social Security or healthcare or college in this country while simultaneously there’s infinite money when it comes to war.
the present shortcoming is not that people protesting are cringe it's that there isn't presently a mass commitment to the kind of action that would force regime change.
that isn't a criticism, just an observation. these things take time. and with time all things are possible.
1. Stop assuming people announce all their activism on social media.
2. Stop demanding people announce all their activism on social media.
3. Stop deriding people for not announcing all their activism on social media.
4. Dunking on people on social media isn't activism and isn't praxis.
Today’s protests were big.
Now add the huge numbers of people who, with good reason, would not feel safe making their anger with the administration public right now.
This movement is even bigger than big.
Good thread on the importance of protest.
I’ve always held to heart the idea that protests aren’t the work, they’re the promise to do the work.
It is a meaningful step forward to see so many rise up.
Protests aren’t the only tool in the anti-authoritarian toolkit, but they’re incredibly important. Protests help us see each other; they make it feel safer to refuse to obey the dictator, and make it more possible for us to organize mass non-cooperation.
It’s an essential step in the process.
"The Palestine Red Crescent Society spokeswoman, Nebal Farsakh, said in an interview from the West Bank city of Ramallah that the paramedic who filmed the video was later found with a bullet in his head in the mass grave."

If you're protesting this weekend, know your rights when interacting with law enforcement, including immigration agents.
The absolute truth. Wishing you the best in the struggle.
