The u.s. government should be recalled, like any other mass media advertised consumable, for containing fascists.

They are contaminating, sickening, disabling, kidnapping, concentrating, disappearing, and otherwise funding to kill innocent folks every fuckin day here.

We met outside

…so they didn’t know then. They thought I was like the others.

(This is a segment of a fiction book I’m writing, to process the trauma of prolonged C19 isolation in a world that pretends it’s over while it continues.)

I needed it today. I needed the fiction of possibility. Of hope for a future where I could touch again without fear.

When they came closer to me, I had to back away. They didn’t understand why it wasn’t safe for us.

They didn’t understand why I couldn’t bear to explain and ruin the chemistry of our moment after so many years alone, even if I knew this couldn’t last.

It was nice just to see a face again, in person. Not behind the screen.

I had almost forgotten what that felt like. I had forgotten what that felt like…

We met outside, so they didn’t know then. They thought I was like the others.

Sometimes, against my best judgment, I wish I was, so I could breathe freely and feel again.

But then, I remember, I know too much. I can’t settle in that, knowing what I know.

There aren’t any people that are more important than anyone else and I don’t trust anyone that plays into that falsity.

The science, and scientist, were create as classification mechanisms. Who is accepted as a decoration or a weed…?

What appears to be an isolated attack is really crowd control, land contamination.

They spray their poisons on flowers just learning to bloom because they know they’re fast-/long-acting across seasons.

They practically cut the FEMA budget IN HALF as these climate emergencies are escalating. This is demonic ass shit, bro.

Dr. bird (She/they/Dr.)🐦‍⬛ @bbiiirdbphd.bsky.social · 1d

OMG It was $11 billion!!!!!!! 11!!!! Not 1!!!!

Holy FUCK

Dr. bird (She/they/Dr.)🐦‍⬛ @bbiiirdbphd.bsky.social · 1d

How could someone be so evil to exploit and work people in contamination virus and mold filled quarters often times to death to become a billionaire?

How could someone be so evil to cut $1 billion dollars from FEMA, as climate crises escalate as a result of the system they own?

Of course Pirate Wires is funded mainly by horrible fucking billionaire Peter Thiel.

Dr. bird (She/they/Dr.)🐦‍⬛ @bbiiirdbphd.bsky.social · 2d

But too many of you are so fucking attached to your attacks based on IQ, elitism, and sanism you refuse to be better fucking people. That’s a willful choice you make to not center liberation for all. I call it like I see it.

75% of y’all don’t even fucking mention disability in your largely hollow DEI rhetoric, claiming to want to make a “safe space,” while you don’t wear a fucking 😷 anymore, showing off your brazen disregard for your and others lives. That is eugenics. So is sanism of any kind.

Dr. bird (She/they/Dr.)🐦‍⬛ @bbiiirdbphd.bsky.social · 2d

Neo/liberals need to be fucking better. You wonder why leftists point out your fascist ass tendencies like ignoring COVID-19 and u.s. funded genocide apologia.

This shit is fucking disgusting. They should be completely ashamed.

Dr. bird (She/they/Dr.)🐦‍⬛ @bbiiirdbphd.bsky.social · 2d

It was their top story. Overt eugenics.

Imagine sharing any source that would approve a story like that, as fascism is loud and clear, knowing the gruesome history / present of incarceration and forced institutionalization.

Dr. bird (She/they/Dr.)🐦‍⬛ @bbiiirdbphd.bsky.social · 2d

I just saw a large neo/liberal creator sharing an article from the same outlet that approved publishing this:
