I don't know if it's really clear, outside of coverage of Mpls and pockets of organizing elsewhere, that hundreds of thousands of people are actively and at every level of society fighting our government as it abducts and imprisons and torments our neighbors.

{whispering} people convicted of violent crimes also do not deserve to live in these conditions
The government says the people being deported are violent criminals, and they treat them inhumanely. But mostly they are subjecting ordinary people to extraordinary punishments.

This is a really big, terrifying deal 🧪
Fearing that educated judges might rule on climate cases, Republican Attorneys General successfully bullied the The Federal Judicial Center (the education & research arm of the federal court system) into removing a chapter summarizing climate science from their scientific judicial reference manual.

I love all the AI commercials telling viewers about shortcuts for life during the Olympics, a sporting event famously known for athletes who have put the hard work in for decades to get where they are.
Just perfect.

We’re a few legislative sessions from these schools being targeted for closure imo
FAMU can't use the word Black on anything posted around campus related to Black History Month, to stay in compliance with Florida state laws against DEI. Black students can't use the word Black at their Historically Black College during Black History Month.

pretty wild statement re: Republican Chris Madel drop from race for MN governor:
"Saying he cannot support the national GOP's 'stated retribution on citizens of our state, nor can I count myself a member of a party that would do so."

A handful of self-centered weirdos in my neighborhood are making a lot of noise to fight sensible zoning. And they’ve succeeded at getting the news to report their groaning, which is frustrating. But I’m hopeful that their lawsuit will fail. It’ll be nice to have more neighbors!
For many years, land use rules stifled growth in Edgewater, Chicago. Broadway Upzoning unlocks affordable housing potential that will benefit the entire community- CTA ridership, countless small businesses, schools, safety and more.

ICE may be shooting people in the face, sending people to concentration camps, and illegally occupying our cities but, apparently, the Democrats think saying, "abolish ICE" is "emotional" and politically "lethal."

one takeaway from the grok noncon porn thing is that much of the media just isn't interested in an issue they can't pretend has two sides or that doesn't give them an opportunity to shit on the left. Also it would be uncomfortable to justify remaining on twitter after acknowledging it
