I think she'd make a perfect national AG in 2029. Partly because she's smart, brave, and tough, partly because she'd be absolutely merciless to every MAGA after this. We'd see plenty rotting in prison with her in charge of DOJ.

Insincere compliance is pretty good, and I like that, but I think there's a lot to be said for not playing the video and telling them to fuck off. We need more of that to give people the courage to resist MAGA.

Reforming the gov't is needed, but not enough.

MAGA never would've happened if MAGA voters didn't choose it. They hate their enemies enough to vote for their own destruction. If you want MAGA gone forever, you need to fix those voters somehow.

To MAGAs, "Christianity" just means "white male supremacy". Jesus has nothing to do with it.

Remember that, and everything they say and do about religion makes total sense.

Right now, they can't. All they can do is gain enough power to replace SCOTUS, then revisit this decision. Very difficult but necessary.

2029 is going to have to be fast, furious, and uncompromising if we're going to regain our rights.

If this happens, red states will destroy any district that might elect a non-white rep. Blue states' only answer would be breaking up their VRA districts to match the gerrymanders, also killing diverse representation.

We need whites to stop being dipshits, or to ban MAGAs from voting.

Organizations and companies need to resist alongside people. Thank you, Phoenix Sky Harbor! MAGA won't last forever, and good people will remember you doing the right thing.

Sadly, tragedies that affect Native Americans are ignored by the media. And with Alaska's leadership being all MAGAs, they're certainly not going to do anything to help.

If there are ways average people not in Alaska can help, like verified places to donate, let us know.

Every airport should!

I'm not giving a MAGA paper the clicks, but which airports? We should know so that we can plan our holidays around them! There's two sides to boycotting - don't pay the bad guys, but give that money to the good guys, too.

If Dems are waving the white flag on Jones for a couple of funny jokes that Republican babies got triggered about, shame on them forever.

However, the job still must be done. Let's bury these monsters and make Virginia hell for MAGAs.

Would this go (ultimately) to the NC Supreme Court, or to the US Supreme Court?

The same sexism that gave us MAGA in the first place also tries to discredit those who are trying to make it better.

We can defeat MAGA, but that's honestly the easy part compared to rooting out the hate in peoples' hearts.

It's 100% culture war. Why would you use GIRLY wind and solar when you can burn MANLY coal?

Anyone who thinks I'm joking, please go ask your local MAGA about this, if you can do so without them shooting at you or giving you lice.

So then the conversation needs to be had: With Dem supermajorities, can those corrupt Justices be impeached and replaced with impartial ones who will let them redraw the maps to be fair? It's our only way to counter MAGA states.

Don't meet with Johnson, unless it's so he can come to you on his hands and knees giving you everything you've asked for.

Break the fucker. And move on from him to every MAGA. We'll weather the storm. Keep fighting for us, and we'll fight for you!

MAGA demon. Unworthy of anything in this country.

Brent Jones, 26, needs to spend the rest of his life in the most brutal prison imaginable, soon to be joined by every MAGA. Their day is coming.

ilikebluethings.bsky.social @ilikebluethings.bsky.social · 14h

There are elections every week. Vote in them as long as that's an option, because every week just re-confirms that people hate MAGA. And it helps get anti-MAGA folks into positions of power.

If the right to vote goes, things will get very ugly, so use that right, and protest to keep it.

The fact that this initiative doesn't have millions in funding is tragic. I'm glad California is getting its due, but there are good people in Missouri who are under daily threat of death by hordes of MAGAs. This is how you empower them to protect themselves.

Someone in some other thread was saying people join ICE because they have no other way to feed their family.

Well, things like this show how fake that horseshit is. They join ICE because they're evil sadists (who abuse their families at home, I can guarantee).

ilikebluethings.bsky.social @ilikebluethings.bsky.social · 1d

No, if they do they're evil.

Lots of people have raised families in poverty without becoming violent thugs. Anyone who joins ICE, for ANY reason, has no soul and no capacity for human kindness.

And I hope they suffer immensely when good people finally regain the government.

Even further - every hotel with ICE scum inside needs massive crowds of protesters outside blasting loud music and noise all night long. Not a wink of sleep for these demons until they retreat to their shithole towns in Texas.

Honestly, I bet they're fine with it.

MAGAs voted for a man who promised to ruin their lives, but also to hurt immigrants and trans people. They couldn't wait to sign their futures away by voting for him.

They're happy to work for free. They're being paid in the tears of their victims.

This gets out by word of mouth. MAGA owns all the media, including social media (except for places like Bluesky where we're all left/libs talking to each other).

But they can't stop us from talking to our neighbours. That's what it's going to take, and no one will do it for us.

Those itching to sacrifice trans people, or anyone, are no better than the MAGAs. We'll only defeat the evildoers by standing together. And lots of us are doing exactly that right now.

ilikebluethings.bsky.social @ilikebluethings.bsky.social · 1d

It's even simpler. They kill us because they hate us and want us dead. There's no theory behind any of MAGA. It's just brutish, cruel hate by brutish, cruel monsters.

That's also why you can't reason with them, or offer them anything better. They understand nothing but hate and violence.
