Every election the dems come to us, hat in hand doing their best sheepish, "garsh gang! we hate to bring bad news but the republicans wanna kill everybody. we can stop them if we give them just a few ppl to kill, who are y'all willing to sacrifice?" and we go for it EVERY TIME!

Vermont’s Bread and Puppet Theater is on tour with a mission to make ‘the revolution irresistible.’ A group of 15 artists is traveling to 33 U.S. cities to stage this year’s show, ‘Our Domestic Resurrection Revolution in Progress.’ This is one of their acts.

This guy was outed by actual Lakota people as not Lakota, who blocks Indigenous folk, who grifts in the nam of but doesn't contribute to Lakota people. Anyone following "Lakota Man" doesn't actually care about Indigenous people. Mountains of Receipts out there.

I am seeing a lot of people reposting Lakota Man today bc it's Indigenous Peoples Day. A reminder that he is not well liked amongst many (most?) Natives on social media. Many of us blocked him a long time ago. Some of the reasons why are in this article.

Who is LakotaMan, the user behind one of the most popular Native American accounts on X?

John Martin is adored by white X users—but infamous among Native and Indigenous communities.

Gonna do an essay about how MTV made white Gen X-ers think racism evaporated in the 90s.

Can the animals consent? Get rid of the pigs, horses and dogs.

Chicago Tribune @chicagotribune.com · 20h

From the Editorial Board:

As Mayor Brandon Johnson prepares to give his budget address Thursday, one idea should get tossed aside: eliminating Chicago’s mounted police unit.

Editorial: Chicago budget should not cut mounted police nor sell off their horses

Is Chicago really going to sell off the horse named for Officer Ella French?

They know why ppl categorically reject Al. This is trying to guilt ppl into accepting it on terms that they've decided "liberals" can't reject or else they'll be "hypocrites." All of it's disingenuous. There's a very good chance ppl saying this don't actually care about the well-being of sex workers

We don't have to defeat Trump. We have to defeat the systems that nurtured, created, and empowered Trump.

Many of those systems are built around the comfort of white people, cis people, and abled people, at the expense of everyone else.

sanders and his white supporters were notoriously racist. 💀

Do you realize how many people who were part of the College Republicans in the 90’s were Sanders supporters in 2016. People aren’t monoliths … and people change.

She was trying to say “there was a 20 year window where Young Republicans magically became Not Racist”. Fantastical thinking that is most likely a cope.

but since you brought up misogyny: the reason you never heard your buddies at the time joke about sexual assault like they do in those group chats was that they were making those jokes behind your back, about you. hope this helps clear some things up

you getting so uppity about having been part of the Hitler Youths is evidence that all young Republicans were always exactly like that forever

Amanda Marcotte @amandamarcotte.bsky.social · 5h

No one said these specific people. Jesus. But the argument was “all young Republicans were always exactly like this forever”.

That is false. It soothes your ego, but hurts the cause.
