The current regime took a week to abolish USAID, which is three times as old and was not in the news every day for brutalizing children
“We cannot just abolish ICE!”

Bestie, you are older than ICE.

This is a fight for fully staffed schools, affordable healthcare, and the supports students deserve. As UESF Pres Cassondra Curiel said: “We want to be in our classrooms with our students… and we’ll do whatever it takes to win the schools our students deserve.”

One thing about the enormous pressure journalists are under to make videos and TikToks and do streams that kills me is that, like… some of us are meant to be read and not seen. Commenters get SO MAD about the way I look whenever my face breaches containment! Just let me write!

There is exactly *one* big city mayor in the Bay Area who supported SB79, the holy grail of YIMBY housing reforms. It was Barbara Lee. No other big city mayor in the Bay Area chose to do so.

Do with that information what you will.

i think this is exactly right. fascism is the Death Drive as ideology. it's why the catastrophic end of the Nazi Party does not deter people from worshipping Nazis. that the Nazis destroyed Germany along with the rest of Europe is part of the appeal.
disturbingly plausible

California billionaires are spending tens of millions of dollars on ballot initiatives to gut CEQA for sprawl projects (mind you we did major infill housing reforms last year!) and to subsidize demand by creating a state backed loan program.

I hate it here!

A slopagandist can become a policymaker in the Clicktatorship
The violent occupation of Minneapolis started with a vlog. I've wanted to find a framework to describe Nick Shirley & others like him: "Influencer" is too quaint. "Journalist" is obviously wrong.

I landed on "slopagandist."

Sending strength and solidarity to the people of Minneapolis. What’s happening there isn’t about immigration or safety — it’s an abuse of federal power.

Watching your son murdered by the federal government and then hearing them concoct foul lies to justify his death is like watching him be murdered again. These poor people, I cannot even imagine.
Kare 11 local news just read, in full, this statement from Michael and Susan Pretti, the parents of Alex Pretti.

ICE has now carried out two summary executions of innocent people in the streets of an American city.

If you work for ICE, there's no denying that's the mission you're supporting now. You don't get to claim in one year or ten or twenty that you didn't know what ICE was doing. You're complicit.
