23. Pro-queer, pro-choice, pro-art, anti-fascist, anti-racist, anti-zionist, anti-AI. (Very) amateur writer and animator that feels like shit.

It says something about Brand and how hard it is to convict these kinds of men that not a single allegation I shared made it into the documentary or the court case. But after waiting a decade I can finally say publicly: Russell Brand is a rapist. I wish the survivors peace and happiness.

Let me tell you about Russell Brand, as someone who helped the journalists who eventually exposed him. In 2013/4, Brand started to become interested in progressive politics. He said progressive things publicly, went on Newsnight etc. At the time I was involved in progressive grassroots work myself.

I live in deeply conservative Croatia. Since the 2000s, the Catholic Church and other fascist/far right forces have done everything they can to foster a culture of bigotry and nationalism that openly celebrates our Nazi past and denies any wrongdoing. I realized early they were all liars and leeches

Now I want to know your childhood villain origin story. What radicalised you as a child? What filled you with a rage that lasted a lifetime?

I lived in deep rural Appalachia in Ohio. When Clinton’s welfare to work policies kicked in, my mom literally could not apply for enough jobs because our town was so small. So I stopped getting meals. I watched the Clintons celebrate and liberals fawned over my childhood starvation.

The entire TERF movement is made up of bio-Fascists like this trying to gaslight people about trans women, claim we're the massive threat to cis women as they idolize and worship rapists that we serve as the sin-eaters for.

A wife is without her husband. Three children are without their Dad. Yet everyone thinks the real victim in this, is a drunk groupie, who was cheating on her boyfriend. Someone who has anonymity for life and will probably get a financial payout. 
I don’t care what anyone calls me. I have a unique perspective on this as someone who had a romantic encounter with Russell in the naughties and then collaborated with him on a political campaign in 2014. 
If this drunk groupie thought he was a predator, why would she stand by and watch him sleep with 1000s more women. Didn’t she care about those women? 
It’s not true that women in the comedy industry warned each other about Russell. No-one warned me and it could not have been more obvious that I was connected to him. 
Just because I am a woman, doesn’t mean I should "believe all women." 
I would be more likely to believe women who report criminals to the POLICE. Not the media, decades later. 
I believe in the right to a fair trial. Convince me it was fair!@SammiePressdee
I got canceled for speaking against the trans narrative.

My top line takeaway from the election is up: NOBODY HAS TO BE LEFT BEHIND. It turns out we DON’T have to sacrifice trans kids to win. We DON’T have to deport our neighbors. We DON’T have to support abusers with Nazi tattoos. We can just *have principles* and win. My latest in @thenation.com

Actually, Democrats Don’t Have to Sacrifice Trans People or Immigrants to Win

For two years, leading Democratic factions have insisted the party must abandon key populations to win. Tuesday proved them wrong.

At least half the states in the country have some kind of restriction on trans girls in sports. But Washington would be one of the first to require medical testing to verify birth sex. Other states with bans require only proof of birth sex via a birth certificate.

For starters: Replace Schumer and Jeffries, undo anti-trans, anti-lgbtq and anti-DEI bills, reinstate USAID, tax the shit out of the billionaires, regulate AI, a moratorium on data centers, nationalize Space X. Then roll up our sleeves and get to work for the next several decades cleaning this mess.

10 trans kids thats the price thats too high for these freaks. 10 kids who want to play sports with their friends. washington must molest every girl in the state who wants to play soccer or softball bc 10 children wanted to play sports with their friends

Voting to get an adult to molest every girl doing extracurriculars in order to fuck over fewer specific children than you can count on two hands. Shameful doesn’t begin to describe it

Probably because we are all the people that know how to read actual statistic, listen to experts, and think clearly about trends, and they are on a nazi site filled with fake bot opinions and other nazis thinking its still where everyone is and that they are the whole of culture rather than a speck?

Compelling piece: "While X may have been more plugged into the political discourse online for the past two years, Bluesky now appears better attuned to what’s been happening on the ground. Its users were right about pretty much everything."

gonna politely but firmly call up my reps and say: - congrats - replace schumer and jeffries - protect trans people - stop funding the genocide in gaza - dismantle ICE - codify abortion rights - claw back medicaid funding & DOGE cuts - AI regulations NOW - no truces with fascists

Right now the Democratic Party is making it abundantly clear that Trump will be coddled for crimes that would have me never seeing the sunlight again. He has tacit permission to commit them over and over. And we aren’t revolting in the streets over this. Somehow.
