i’ve said it before: my parents told their right wing families to fuck off (literally) in the early 1970s over vietnam + civil rights

since then, every member of my family, including my 20 yr old white nephew, has voted straight blue

this is how we build a movement + win

The vice president ran an excellent campaign. The past 4 years while she was working to make the country better. A right wing campaign was growing. Start talking to your family & friends. The root of the problem isn’t on the top. It’s locally !

If you are a Democrat who is spending time attacking Kamala Harris or her campaign rather than focusing on the fight ahead, you aren't helping anyone.

The only violence I’ve been seeing in Portland is from the so-called Feds!!!

If you were trying to invent an energy scam to immiserate the poor and accelerate climate change, you couldn't come up with a better scam than the way industry is pursuing AI under Trump.

Alphabet, Amazon, Meta, Microsoft, and OpenAI alone have collectively announced $800b in commitments for new data centers in 2025. Meanwhile, US electricity prices are rising fast, up 35% since 2022

Electricity is AI's Achilles heel:

“I spent three nights and three days in federal custody. During that time, I was never told what I was charged with, was not allowed to shower despite being covered in tear gas and pepper spray, had no phone call to my family, and no access to an attorney.” - George Retes, U.S. citizen and veteran.

I’m a US citizen and a veteran. ICE arrested me for no reason.

Jailed for three days without an explanation or ability to notify anyone, George Retes argues the only path to healing starts with the government taking accountability for its actions.

You don't have to judge Columbus by the standards of today. His tenure as governor of Hispaniola was so horrific that he was dragged back to Spain in chains to answer for his many crimes.

Plus he never set foot on any land that would ever be a part of the United States of America.

Kamala Harris: "Here in Chicago I'm told the helicopters that were descending on an American city were Black Hawks. Do you know what Black Hawks were designed to do? War. So I think everyone can draw their conclusions just based on the facts."

The protestors at Kamala’s book tour should have spent $30 on her book vs $300 to disrupt her. They would have learned something instead of being anti black chaos agents hellbent on annoying her and her audience.

no i didn’t. i had to figure it out from contextual clues because it’s the wrong term you used incorrectly.

you’re so wrong, you don’t even realize it

now, i’ll say it once more very slowly for you: go. the. fuck. away. read. up. on. american. civics. shut. the. entire. fuck. up. until. then.

🐝thee agnes de buffle🐝 @vanadiumzest.bsky.social · 11h

now, for the 98th time, stop justifying yourself and go away. go read up on american civics 101 and leave everyone alone until you have a rudimentary understanding of the system, which you currently don’t. we’re all the way done here

🐝thee agnes de buffle🐝 @vanadiumzest.bsky.social · 11h

whataboutism doesn’t work here, sue, because i’m not in a canadian politician’s mentions demanding impossible shit. why? because, unlike you, i know better

but, for the record, i live in seattle + have spent a ton of time in BC, so know quite a bit. more than you do about american politics

their behavior towards me was far from an isolated incident. bernie bros were so abusive that, after 2016, WA switched from a caucus to a primary to avoid anything that horrific happening again to people getting together to vote

that aggression + gendered harassment happened all over the country.

🐝thee agnes de buffle🐝 @vanadiumzest.bsky.social · 12h

what do you suggest i call the overflow mob of bernie bros who screamed, “C*NT!!!!” at me as the lone HRC delegate at my 2016 seattle caucus, donn? or the hundreds of bernie bros who sent me death and rape threats for not supporting their candidate?

then why the actual living fuck are you here + not yelling at MAGA sue?

this is where we began. you have yet to rectify your original mistake: go yell at MAGA. stay the fuck out of democrats’ feeds. read up on american civics so you aren’t ignorant. don’t expect free labor

get to doing all of that
