The Decline into Fascism now seems steep because we have fallen off the cliff and are now gaining terminal velocity.
If you think they won't shoot you when they are shooting Australian journalists with "rubber" bullets on camera, please join reality. Be aware, Be safe.
Phil Lewis@phillewis.bsky.social · last yr.Australian reporter Lauren Tomasi was shot in the leg with a rubber bullet by an officer in Los Angeles:
I’m excited to receive an endorsement from @mikalgoodman.bsky.social, a strong progressive and working class champion. #AlexKingforLivonia
Wow. Absolutely no one saw this coming. Not a single person. Definitely not.
I'm endorsing @donavanmckinney.bsky.social because I've fought alongside Donavan for years for the people of Metro-Detroit, because he always shows up where he's needed. If you want a Congressman who actually gives a damn about you, it's Donavan McKinney without a doubt!
Donavan McKinney for Congress@donavanmckinney.bsky.social · last yr.Our community deserves a Representative who actually knows how much groceries cost — and why that cost matters for families. Instead, #MI13 has an out-of-touch multimillionaire who has more in common with Trump & Elon than any of us. I'm running to replace him. Are you with me?
SCOTUS will rule on whether states can or cannot ban the torture of children
The Associated Press@apnews.com · 2y agoBREAKING: The Supreme Court will consider whether state and local governments can enforce laws banning conversion therapy for LGBTQ+ children.
A reminder: the GWBush Admin built a prison at Gitmo not because of its size or facilities, but on the theory that because it was not in the US, US laws would not apply, and because US didn't recognize Cuban sovereignty over it Cuban law didn't either. It's a stateless, lawless zone of impunity.
Acyn@acyn.bsky.social · 2y agoTrump: Today I'm also signing an executive order to instruct the departments of defense and homeland security to begin preparing the 30,000 person migrant facility at Guantanamo Bay
Well, nows a great time to remind everyone, myself included, the importance of posting discipline.
My mom passed away last night at just 40 years old. I never thought I’d be in this position at 24. She had no savings or insurance, so I’m asking for help covering her funeral expenses. If you can, please donate: Cash App: $Mikal27 Venmo: @ Mikal-Goodman

Read the book Read Raising Expectations (and Raising Hell)@jphillll.bsky.social · 2y agoLol someone on twitter saw anthem rolling back their anesthesia move and said “bullying works.” I think yesterday’s events were somewhere past bullying.
The Korean Confederation of Trade Unions has announced that it will begin an indefinite general strike tomorrow, demanding the immediate resignation of President Yoon Suk-yeol.
Biden could have pardoned so many people, and we wouldn't be talking about the Democratic Party like we about to take it to a farm upstate. Instead, he chose the only non-violent drug offender he cares about; his very unremarkable son. He could have freed the sons of thousands, but he's selfish.
Eric Michael Garcia@ericmgarcia.bsky.social · 2y agoNEW: @aoc.bsky.social tells me that Joe Biden should commute federal death sentences after he pardoned Hunter Biden. "I would hate to see is President Biden leaving office with less commutations and clemency issuances than even President Trump provided." www.independent.co.uk/news/world/a...
star wars did give us a slur for robots (clankers) but i don’t use it bc i don’t want to have to look a robot in the eye in fifty years and be like “you don’t understand it was a different time…”
All we're saying is that if Biden can pardon his son Hunter, he could pardon every other nonviolent offender. If Hunter can be free to ski, every person who calmly sold trees should be on the outside right now.
Ain't no way kendrick just drop like that. Jesus christ.
Every Dem politician not calling Nancy Mace a sick freak is someone who would tell the paramilitary death squads exactly where you are in the attic if they were pushed even the *tiniest* to do so. Many Democrats are looking at Trans people as the literal and metaphorical scapegoat of the election.
Alejandra Caraballo@esqueer.net · 2y agoAOC comes out swinging against a Nancy Mace for targeting Sarah McBride. "They're doing this so that Nancy Mace can ... fundraise off an email. They're not doing this to protect people. They're endangering women, they're endangering girls of all kinds. And everybody should reject it. It's gross."

There was a time, long ago, where McBride knew how important it was to not comply with bathroom policies.
A grandmother would post this on Facebook with the caption "God made blue-eyed people in his image," with absolutely no pushback.

much has (deservedly) been say about the disease-generating potential of factory animal farms, but underdiscussed is the role they play in outbreaks like these. whether the culprit was tainted water, lagoon spray, or organic fertilizer, the source of the E. coli was most likely a CAFO
Phil Lewis@phillewis.bsky.social · 2y agoAn outbreak of E. coli has infected dozens of people who ate bagged organic carrots sold by Grimmway Farms, and one person died from the infection
