Imma piggyback on this, might have to thread it…

Y’all remember women choosing the bear over a strange man? So many men were offended when so many women chose the bear.

It’s reasoning that applies to white supremacy (and therefore, white people) as well as sexism (and therefore, men)…

Men did the same thing during the me too movement. “Not all men” was commonly said. But it’s the culture of men and white people that cause these problems. We have held the power and abused it for too long. Real strength is knowing it’s time to step aside and LISTEN.

The protestors at Kamala’s book tour should have spent $30 on her book vs $300 to disrupt her. They would have learned something instead of being anti black chaos agents hellbent on annoying her and her audience.

Spread this around. Missouri and Ohio Democrats need at least 100,000 valid signatures to take on Republican gerrymandering maps. This is the fight 🔥

MO & OH Dems need us to help Rally support!

A commissioned poll shows nearly 1/2 of MO voters oppose the maps

The Dem committee needs over 100,000 valid signatures across multiple congressional districts before the state’s 90-day window expires on Dec. 11 to let voters decide on the maps.
Missouri Democrats have an opportunity to block a new congressional map. They say they’re largely on their own.
Despite relatively little investment from Washington, Missouri and Ohio Democrats are looking to block new Republican-drawn maps through uncertain avenues.

The argument that Land Back is ethnonationalism in the “blood and soil” vein is especially shoddy when one looks at the origins of “blood and soil” and see that it actually has a lot in common with settler colonialism versus anything to do with Indigenous land relations.

Accurate...
A social media post from Shady Rose: "It is believed with alarming pervasiveness that autistic and other neurodivergent people "don't understand social cues/social situations". My question to neurotypicals is, do you? "It seems to me that culturally we're all so acclimated to being disingenuous and mildly manipulative in social settings and calling that normal and acceptable. As a result, many of you are severely disconnected from authentic connections with others. "Afraid to say "this is how I really feel" or "this is what I really think of this/you", instead you speak and act in cryptic coded language under a veneer of straight up falsehood. Doesn't that get exhausting? We are certainly exhausted by it."

"Police say Brent Jones, 26, urinated in the reflecting pool and stomped on and broke the eternal flame at the site."

A no-brainer: Pam Bondi could pretend to be a both-sides advocate of justice by staging an outraged press conference and pledging to prosecute this guy. But she won't.
Eternal flame at Martin Luther King Jr.’s Atlanta burial site destroyed
Police say the man also urinated in the reflective pool.

About a month ago, the Trump administration got rid of the de minimis exemption, whereby packages valued under $800 could slide in without import duties. Now there's a backlog as the government can't process all of this paperwork, leading to UPS just destroying packages
Business Insider headline reads: UPS is telling customers that their packages coming to the US are marked for destruction.
