50501: The People’s Movement ❌👑 @50501movement.bsky.social · 1d

The secret power of a people’s movement is that it’s random.

It’s neighbors protecting immigrants from ICE. It’s millions canceling Disney+. It’s a man throwing a sandwich. It’s inflatable frogs dancing.

Dictators struggle to fight a movement, because they can’t do what they want most—control us.

There is no progress without struggle.

For centuries, people have fought, defended, and won their right to a free democracy and civil rights.

Never underestimate the power of people and the importance of peaceful action.

California, this November 4th, the whole country is counting on you.

Prop 50 puts our elections back on a level playing field, preserves independent redistricting over the long term, and lets the people decide.

So return your ballot today. Vote yes on 50.

Imagine making six figures to not do anything you were entrusted to do.

…getting paid to not work while thousands of civil servants around you were getting fired.

…betraying those who counted on you to represent them, all to appease a wannabe dictator.

The GOP Congress is a helluva thing.

Can I tell you a secret? I don't care if there are undocumented immigrants in this country. I think it's a non-issue. Without social security numbers they're not getting the welfare people claim they're getting, the vast majority of them are normal people trying to live a better life.
This whole wall deport-the-illegals bullshit is just the one percent convincing the working poor to blame a subset of the working poor for the fact that they're all poor, instead of realizing they're all poor due to vast income inequality and resource price inflation in combination with wage stagnation.
The existence of another poor person is not why you're poor. It's because the people who control everything refuse to increase your wages.

It’s illegal for noncitizens to vote. Requiring proof of citizenship creates barriers for eligible voters. Tell the Election Assistance Commission you oppose requiring citizens to submit passport, birth certificate, or other citizenship documents to register to vote! Do it here: bit.ly/42EZzkR NOW!
