This is particularly important in relation to large Black autistic kids/teens
These kids are so vulnerable and you’re gonna call the cops on them? Fuck you forever

One thing I will always be grateful for is my understanding of dysregulation and not freaking out when a physically large autistic person becomes acutely dysregulated
Calling the police is a dick move

2 things are certain for me: if I were a titan of industry I would never be driven stark raving mad with paranoid delusions. Also my security team would stay loyal to me

"I once met a former bodyguard of one billionaire with his own "bunker", who told me his security team's first priority, if this really did happen, would be to eliminate said boss and get in the bunker themselves. And he didn't seem to be joking."

Tech billionaires seem to be doom prepping. Should we be worried?

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.

Because what they are doing is "reversing" decades of "unfair elevation of Black, Native, disabled, and other vulnerable people" to take care of the "real racism" which is "against white people, and white men in particular."

Racism is being almost explicitly defined as "against white people."

Impeachment is legitimately the bare minimum thing they should be pushing for. How is this even debatable? If the party was even 1/8th legitimate, the position of the centrists sellouts would be that he and Vance are impeached and thrown in prison and the progressives have more transformative plans.

The fact that Democrats remain overwhelmingly against impeachment is nuts.

It is the equivalent of saying "Sorry everyone, the law is non functional and you need to operate outside all legal boundaries if you want to remove a fascist child rapist from power."
