Naw. I’m too old, I’ve been through too much and seen too much to be defeatist.
He’s human, not supernatural. The US is one country, and 4.22% of the world’s population. This is one moment in time & it will end.
I hope you can hold on to some faith too.
Maybe try prayer or psilocybin, or both.

Charlie Kirk started the Professor Watchlist, which caused friends of mine and their families to be terrorized by right-wing assholes. So, you know, fuck everyone trying to find some nugget of decency in that shitpile.

I never wish harm on anyone, I’m a pacifist and believe in non-violence, in every aspect of life.
But yesterday I was thinking that people are getting bold with their actions and words, and was anticipating some violence. I thought Hegseth or RFK Jr. but Charlie Kirk also tracks.

The United States is the only place on earth where poor people shun unions, free healthcare, and free education because the rich tell them to.

The next Democratic president should declare that the National Emergencies Act and Article II of the Constitution allow him to:
•admit D.C. and Puerto Rico as states
•abolish ICE
•grant citizenship to any immigrant
•disband the 5th Circuit
•expand the Supreme Court
Seriously: Why the hell not?

Boycott Amazon with me. It’ll save you money!
Your Prime Day reminder that half of Amazon warehouse workers struggle with food & housing costs.
A third have had to rely on government assistance like SNAP — which is about to get cut.
If Bezos can spend $50M on a wedding, Amazon can afford to treat its workers with dignity.

When a cabinet member announces "We are using the military to liberate an American city from its elected leaders," where do you go from there. What is left to say. The idea of that being anything short of a near-universal "Wait, what the fuck is going on" moment proves how far we've backslid.

LAPD’s Chief says they still have no idea what the military’s mission in LA is.
There are no open deconfliction channels between the military and local law enforcement.
Having multiple groups with weapons operating in the same area with no way to communicate is fucking insane.

Remember: Almost all of us are the descendants of immigrants who fled persecution, or were brought to America under duress, or sought better lives for themselves and their descendants.
Politicians who stoke fear and hatred over immigration want you to forget this.

Resisters, STAY FOCUSED
They're distracting us from their anarchy.
We know trump was involved. We've seen the lawsuits from women raped by trump when they were 12/13 yr old. Not a priority at the moment.
Right now
Focus on destroying;
•TARIFFS
•The shitty Bill
•DOGE
•This Regime
etc.

Remember: If unions didn’t matter, powerful corporations wouldn’t spend millions of dollars every year to stop workers from organizing. Keep up the fight.
