We’re where we are because they didn’t want Black ppl to have nice things. Racism. We’re here because of racism.
Authoritarianism can only succeed when democracy fails to deliver for working people.
Authoritarian parties can only succeed when the pro-democracy parties fail to fight for working people.
We need a new democracy and a new party system which can represent working people.

it's not that i ever doubted that being a barista was a skilled position, but my year-long effort to try to produce a half-decent latte at home has convinced me that a good barista is easily more skilled than virtually every c-suite executive on the planet

There's some discourse happening on Threads about authors gatekeeping their publishing journey information. (yeah I know.) Sharing information is helpful, but not required, & not available to everyone. So I've made a questionnaire about the query & publishing journey. docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F...

Beshear: Let me be clear. The president has both the funding and the authority to fund snap during a shutdown. In fact, every other president in every other shutdown has done so. People going hungry in this instance is a choice that this president has made.

Remember most people have been priced out of third spaces. Older generations had bars, clubs, coffee shops, skating rinks, malls, the movies. Community thrives with gathering spaces.

ah, perhaps instead of pumping millions into endless factional infighting Dem donors could invest in making local Dem organizations genuine civic spaces that can reach people during and between elections

Congressman Joseph Neguse serving as the U.S. representative for Colorado's 2nd district put the Government Shutdown into perfect perspective. His statement here should resonate with American's from all walks of life.

Eliminating poor people is a part of eugenics
40% of live births in America are paid for by Medicaid.
Slash that shit and then what?
Babies die. Mothers die. We all pay more for every kind of medical care and hospitals go belly up.
How. Is. That. Winning?

My perhaps controversial assessment is that when you share the propaganda of your enemies to call it out or to mock it… you’re still spreading their propaganda and maybe doing exactly what they hope you’ll do.

oh just straight up gutter racism!
So here's Andrew Cuomo reacting to Maria Bartiromo wondering if Mamdani will "change the look of New York" and have Muslim women "completely covered up," telling her that Mamdani "doesn't understand New York culture" because he has "dual citizenship" and "he's a citizen of Uganda."

Aunt Ashley. At least one child I know thinks he has a white mom AND a Black one because of my relationship with him. Keep your Eurocentric familial labeling out of my mostly ethnic community.
