media when maga wins an election: we must travel the country and speak to these voters and extend empathy to them and give credence to their bigotry and false beliefs media when the left wins an election: is this the end of the american experiment

In 1986, contracting HIV meant you were going to die, usually slowly, painfully, and alone. Now it's a chronic illness like hypertension. In 1986, gay and lesbian couples couldn't have their relationships legally recognized and had to adopt elaborate legal workarounds.

Food, man. Food is so much better than it was in 1986. All of it. Poor-people food, restaurant food, fresh food, frozen food. Food is just a hell of a lot better.

all my interactions with ai are miserable and nonconsensual. it is the reason my programs are running slowly, why my weather report is inaccurate, why I always get connected to the wrong department of any automated call service. I would pay a lot of money to be rid of it.

Palestinians voted uncommitted in their primary to protest their literal families back in Gaza being blown apart on livestream for months, with our government's full support. They wanted the support for genocide of their people to end. What are you protesting? That he's Arab? .... buddy

El-Sayed won. I’m urging Black Detroiters to STAY HOME and be “uncommitted’ like El-Sayed was for Kamala Harris during the general election. Dearborn voted for TRUMP instead of the Black Lady. I’m encouraging Black Detroit to vote for Jill Stein or Trump , like the Arabs in Dearborn did in 24!

It's fun to be reminded that even if you supported Kamala in 2024, her stupid fans will backstab you anyway. There is no value in ever bending the knee to them.

The Palestinian resistance responding against decades of genocide was never the problem. It was always the nazi rapists who were, actually. Systematically stripping Palestinians of their humanity, rights, land, and homes? That was all on Israel and Israelis.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu says Israel will not withdraw from Gaza until Hamas has been completely disarmed.

the ceasefire plan is, was, and will forever be a lie intended to get the international community to pretend things were getting back to normal and that there was therefore no longer a need for mass protests or sanctions or any consequences for israel

When the *smug* Liberals tell you that there are no centrists on this site suggesting we sacrifice Trans people and immigrants to win the election, point them towards this asshole.

It’s not cowardly to want your kids to eat a decent meal or be able to drive to work. It just isn’t.

PS: Democrats did not support gay marriage federally until the courts made it legal. Harris never supported trans rights. She would have been better off if she had since Republicans were going to tar her for it anyway and not supporting us cost her votes. bsky.app/profile/nyck...

That’s bullshit. Hillary and Harris both fell for the ‘gay wedding school Toilets’ cake and watched Trump roll all over them for it. Most people vote for kitchen table items, their security. Not gay wedding cakes.

Drag these fucking people out of the tent Ostracize them completely

I actually think it’s really a bad sign that straight people have managed to erase themselves from conversations about the roots of homophobia.

Caelan Conrad@caelan.bsky.social · 4w ago

Everywhere Republicans gather, Grindr crashes. Or at least, that's what people have told me about 500 times since my video discussing if homophobia is always rooted in secretly being gay. But is it true? Do republicans constantly crash Grindr whenever they meet? New Video: youtu.be/GHeAJPbx0SI

Many say this leaves no path to redemption; I will note that paths to redemption exist, but they are for the offender to walk, not for others to deem it walked on their behalf. And a Nazi isn't walking a path of redemption if they remain in the Nazi party. Nothing stopping them. Path open.

Everywhere should be a hostile place for Republicans. They should not be able to find a friend anywhere. They should lose all their professional and familial relationships. They should be blocked from signing up to social media platforms, clubs, and yard sales. They should be ejected from fairs.

My thoughts on Bluesky not being welcoming to Republicans is Trump blocks disaster relief to states voting blue, & is also legally codifying anyone who opposes him as a terrorist deserving violence, & his kidnapping brute gangs terrorize the streets, & there's much more but I'm out of characters

Rosie Duffield and co.

the mainstream press praising rod liddle in death are not unaware he was a bigoted pedophile, they like him for it. the people in their in-group, at the top of their hierarchy, getting away with crimes signals that the world is in order. it is a moral good, to them. the bigger the crimes the better

The “best” thing about genAI (the quotes are doing heavy work here) is that it’s really lowered the bar on getting into hand-made art. Literally anything you make is better than ai. There’s never been a better time to throw away your fear and start learning that craft you’ve always wanted to learn.

oh good, she’s infantilizing a conspiracy theory, instead of, you know, talking about real issues like an adult MAHA is never going to vote for her & we cannot share a party tent with people that think vaccines are dangerous, that antidepressants are evil, etc. she is NOT built for this

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez@ocasio-cortez.house.gov · 2d ago

There is pervasive corruption across our healthcare and agricultural systems that defy party lines. I meet with MAHA activists because a lot of their concerns are bipartisan issues that major corporations paint as partisan. The fight isn't left and right, it's top and bottom.

we need a strong republican party and a bipartisan MAHA movement and common sense trans sports bans and a bailout for havana syndrome victims. we need a big tent democratic party that includes war criminals and the lady at the the wellness store trying to get your mom off chemo

"Platner’s first deployment, in early 2005, began at the Abu Ghraib prison complex, part of which the military had rechristened Camp Redemption." missed that detail the first time around!

Its a lib "bubble" because MAGA can't stick dick opinions in my face without a block. People like bluesky because unlike Twitter you can curate/filter out stupid bullshit. The only reason conservatives hate it is because they cant force you to pay attention to them. That better not fucking change.

Bluesky's new CEO Toni Schneider on the platform's reputation for being a liberal bubble: "Yes, we definitely want that to change. It is already changing. It certainly wasn’t designed to attract one specific group of people."

Me: Israel shouldn't exist. It's a settler-colony founded on the genocide of the indigenous population. American 'leftists': According to your own logic, the United States shouldn't exist either! Me:

honestly all the bullshit has radicalised me. i am now a trans sports maximalist. if lebron james transitions and dominates the WNBA for 20,000 years? i don't give a shit. fuck you

The SCREEN Act is not just another age-verification bill — it goes much further than anything passed at the state-level or in other countries. 1. The bill doesn't just target porn sites. It goes after *any* site that allows material "harmful" to minors. You'd have to scan your face to use Google.
