Social justice is the most important thing to do right now. Stand up and fight fascism.
We are screwed if we don't look after each other. Please, no more hate.

My wife has been HIV+ for 34 years. She’s alive today b/c work of activists who destigmatized the virus, pushed medical science to adapt & find ways to treat it, & advocated for gov health programs that helped fund her care. The current U.S. regime may want to go back in time, but we won’t let them.

Another example of Trump’s abuse of the presidential pardon, folks. I can’t believe I have to say it but pardoning a corrupt government official who took millions of dollars in bribes from cartels is WRONG.

This is like saying “I don’t think Donald Trump would be foolish enough to try to have his own Vice President lynched” when that’s exactly what he tried to do.

Everyone should read this terrifying thread about Hegseth’s published views wrt war crimes. It’s pretty fucking radical …. We needed to hear about this in his confirmation hearing.
A chapter in Hegseth’s book is literally titled “More Lethality, Less Lawyers.”
