Your longer piece on Today Explained makes it sound like this is a political/cultural game, great for creating online belonging. Maybe you could contextualize this racist and antisemitic content, and the GOP leaders who condone it, and note the horrific violence that historically goes with it.

When we organize together, we win.

This fight has always been about more than one comedian, it’s about contesting fascist control of media & their white supremacist demands to take away our freedom of speech and silence anyone who doesn't look, live, or love like them from speaking truth to power.

They are soooo hoping for a protester to get “violent” so they can justify their invasion of our cities. Stay safe and peaceful everyone! ❤️

Well here’s some good news.

If this is how this administration responds to a Senator with a question, you can only imagine what they're doing to farmworkers, to cooks, and to day laborers throughout California and across the country.

We will hold this administration accountable.

"Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired signifies, in the final sense, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and are not clothed."

This looks amazing. Can't wait to see what they produce.

YES! Magazine will be closing, just short of 30 years after we founded it in 1996. Feeling gratitude for what we were able to accomplish, for the support and collaboration, and for the other media who continue the work. Also feeling sad for the many ways independent media is under attack.

Trump honoring the troops? You mean the guy who faked bone spurs, mocked POWs, insulted Gold Star families, skipped memorials for weather, and called our fallen “suckers”? Yeah, his $100M bday parade isn’t for them—it’s a vanity project for a coward craving applause.
