I always find it fascinating how whenever it’s a white male, the media will always individualise that crime. The white community and other white men will never be asked to answer for the crimes of one white man.
@firstprinciples.bsky.social · yesterdayOh yes, when it’s a white ‘Christian’ male it’s all ‘lone wolf’, ‘bad apple’, etc.
'So apparently in Britain you can now be arrested for describing the law. Not breaking it, describing it. Which means somewhere at the police training college there's a new module, sandwiched between "de-escalation" and "kettling for beginners", called Advanced Punctuation ...' via Johnny Fontaine
This first victory is not yet the final victory, and it was achieved by our October Revolution at the price of incredible difficulties and hardships, at the price of unprecedented suffering, accompanied by a series of serious reverses and mistakes on our part.
And I do mean very specifically, there’s like 50 elementary aged trans girls in the state and like 2 of them are considering sports and 57% of WA State said “not on our watch, and also all your friends have to be punished too”.
I don't think we talk about this enough. Allowing a private citizen unlimited access to low orbit to do with as he sees fit is insane. We *already* can't track every thing up there, and we're one bad collision away from being unable to access space for DECADES before effective cleanup.
Shelley B Woke - Living Saint of Purity🏳️⚧️🖤💜🤍 💛@shelleybwoke.bsky.social · 16h agoAlso, the whole DOGE thing, polluting our low-earth orbit with his starlink shit, destroying the beaches of Texas with no-telling what toxic shit from SpaceX launches, championing fascism around the globe, campaigning against trans rights, and doing Nazi salutes in front of a live audience. etc.
This is why monsters like Acton can never be elected. It normalizes Nazism. Here is a guy openly stating that it is reasonable to call little girls slurs, and strip them of their basic civil rights, and using far right athletes and right wing parents as an excuse to be a Nazi.
Just some dude@qinshihuang.bsky.social · 2d agoAll she said was that she doesn’t support boys playing in girl sports. That’s reasonable. Many female athletes and parents of athletes agree with her. That’s why she won.
Not seeing enough about the ICE detention centers. Freeing those in them has to be top on the list.
🤦 Yeah, bud... We know. We already know what you were doing.
Btw I'll say it, I was one of the annoying buzzkill leftists who didn't even give everybody one day Because Jeffries and Schumer didn't give *me* one
So many people are acting like it's all over and they won. Like, they ain't even in office yet, right? The world openly hates the states now yet folks think that suddenly it's friends on again. It's not celebration time, it's keep them inundated with demands until they're sworn in at the very least!
The “Let Us Have Our Joy” crowd shows me that no, they would not have been protesting President Harris about Gaza
As we remember Brianna, also remember that hate crime is increasing against trans individuals. For all the talk about the "trans debate" you are talking about people's lives. That isn't a debate. Trans and non-binary individuals are being killed and yet we are still told our lives are up for debate.
TACC@tacc.org.uk · 22h agoHappy Birthday, Brianna Ghey. You will always be in our hearts; we will never forget you, and we will never stop till this country is a safe place for trans people. Rest in power 🫶♥️
for the record, james talarico did not 'walk back' his anti-trans comments. he reiterated that his support on anti-trans sports bans was contingent on it being 'sport by sport' rather than a blanket ban and restated that he would support a nationwide ban on trans healthcare for children.
Reminder that the *only* book Trump has ever been confirmed to have read is a collection of Hitler's speeches.
Seth Cotlar@sethcotlar.bsky.social · 21h ago“Germany for the Germans” was the slogan of a political organization that existed about 100 years ago.
Like...Imane Khelif and Caster Semenya aren't trans, and yet they are used as examples of "men in women's sports" EVERY FREAKING DAY by the people who say WE can't define what a woman is.
I'm just saying, it's weird how there are so few trans athletes that every time people scream about "men in women's sports," it's about a cis Black or Brown girl or woman.
Gee I wonder why a right wing publication would offer Dems electoral advi...ohhhhh i get it
The Economist@economist.com · 2d agoOur data analysis suggests that a moderate Democratic nominee would probably stand a better chance of winning back the White House than a DSA-backed one. We explain why
In 1970s and 80s, Fidel Castro sent the Cuban Army to Angola to fight against the South African forces, which Mandela credited with weakening the apartheid. Mandela, during a 1991 visit to Havana, described the Castro-led Cuban Revolution as "a source of inspiration to all freedom-loving people."
That's conservative ideology in a conversation: protect the flag, but kill the people.
Transphobes Can't Read@lordaslan.bsky.social · yesterdayTrump "America is garbage can full of crime and corruption and it needs to be purged!" MAGA "omg elect that man" *Someone makes a joke about the flag* MAGA "ONG THEY HATE AMERICA"
Using queer sexuality and trans existence to dunk on fascists is not and never will be funny, libs. Fix your hearts or die.
The New York Times is currently running seven (7!) articles where they smugly celebrate the destruction of trans rights and the wholesale abandon of our community in the last year, but the idea that we could maybe possibly sometime in the future get some civil rights back is simply unacceptable.
Really seems like they need to familiarize themselves with Mazlow's Heirarchy of Needs. Ain't nobody going to have time for seeking joy when we're worried about where our next meal, healthcare, and bill payments are coming from.
"Just let us have this one" Just let us have our rights back motherfucker
