I’m in D.C. at the @homelesslaw.bsky.social’s fundraiser, following their press conference to rebuke the fascist-in-chief’s violent homelessness “plan” that will push 170,000 people back into the streets.

Racialization *

Capitalism is and always has needed radicalization to function— producing cultures of hate, dehumanization, and ultimately, mass delusion (see White Supremacy/American Exceptionalism/ (White) Christian Nationalism/ Zionism etc)

I’ve been a member of @demsocialists.bsky.social for nearly 10 years.

I’m reposting these clips from 2017 in the hope they find themselves to some of the people targeted by this racially-manipulative, billionaire-directed & funded attack.

My first article for the brand new LGBTQ Community News. I hope you enjoy this piece exploring how the intersectional identities of 3 activists: @mynameisjro.bsky.social, @jawanza.bsky.social and Yanery Cruz impact their work in The Resistance.

I cannot express enough how grief is not unaffected by genocide, mass confusion, authoritarianism, and the increasingly bleak future.

Philanthropies Strike a Promising Deal to Turn Back H.I.V.

By @apoorvanyt.bsky.social

Low- and middle-income countries will be able to purchase an effective preventative at a reduced price. The arrangements may help stem the epidemic 40 years after it began.

We're shocked –– shocked we tell you! –– that @nyscomptroller.bsky.social found that the Federal Budget Scam hurts working-class New Yorkers while benefiting the ridiculously rich.

Anyone else think it's time for a special session to #TaxTheRich?

Happening Now: pro-Palestine, anti-genocide, anti-war demonstrators gather in Manhattan to call for an immediate arms embargo on Israel, and and immediate lift of the siege on Gaza and the resumption of UN-controlled humanitarian assistance. #FreePalestine #UNAssembly

More than 20,000 children have been murdered in Gaza by the Israeli military since 2023.

Nearly 400 Palestinians have been killed by the same government via human-caused famine. They were starved to death.

Hundreds of thousands of NYers will lose their health insurance as soon as January 2026. Governor Hochul and state lawmakers can mitigate the funding cuts by taxing the rich and passing the New York for All Act. SPECIAL SESSION NOW! @jawanza.bsky.social @investinourny.bsky.social

, and preserved by military expansionism, proxy-imperialism, and sustained State/Corporate/Elite, right-wing, conservative propaganda.

Do *NOT* join ICE.

No amount of money, even when we are poor, is worth the destruction of your own soul or the violence of attacking people via the authority of a nation founded by genocide and land theft; a nation built and defined by ensalvement, fascist authoritarianism (Jim Crow)

Benjamin Netanyahu, his admin, and any Israeli supporting his diabolical plan to steal ALL of Gaza are genocidal war criminals who deserve nothing less than the full application of existing international law and they should be the precedent for new law that the world needs.

Today marks 80 yrs since the United States dropped the first of two atomic bombs on Hiroshima, Japan.

Instantly incinerating ~80,000 people.

Thousands more died later.

Nukes have got to go.

We couldn’t afford the first bombing, nor the second.

If another drops, it will be annihilation.

Just learning that ICE is offering $50,000 sign on bonuses and student loan forgiveness just made me nearly hyperventilate.

They have stolen from us and They have played in our faces.

Israel must immediately stop its genocide that has evolved towards extermination of Palestinians in Gaza.

LIFT THE BLOCKADE IMMEDIATELY

They (capitalists) decided like 40-50 years ago that it is, and also that it is okay to exterminate the rest of us (and all life) in the process.

See EXXON knowing that their practices had climate impact a full 50 years before most.

A B S O L U T E L Y.

What’s the destruction of Earth if you have a plan (and means) to exit, and even if still a technological wonder, terraforming Mars IS possible.

(Spoiler) In the end of the series, the whole world is essentially crushed, billions killed.

I’ve been making a comparison to the story of the very popular anime “Attack on Titan.”

I worry about backing Israel, a nuclear-armed country, into a corner; in the same way I’d be worried were the U.S. (or when it finally is).

Palestinians are being starved to death.

I S R A E L ‘ S right-wing, fascist government (not too diff from ours) is engaged in a protracted campaign of not simply genocide, but extermination.

Bisan calls on us to make our demands louder than the lies!

At least the white majority, though, not exclusively.

Yes and in times of normalized, right-wing violence the majority has hardly ever held the moral clarity that advances American society.
