I am ND and was raised strictly within Mormonism. I took everything extremely literally and believed I knew The Truth and that I was one of God’s “chosen ones.”
Since leaving my religion, I’ve learned that not “knowing,” and having intellectual humility leads to greater intelligence. 🧵

I think not enough white people are taking the voting rights issues seriously enough. They are killing people and then offering to stop killing if the state gives up the voter registration data. This should be setting off massive alarms for EVERYONE. (I’m looking at you, white people.)

Even in our polarized country, more and more people from left, right, and center are coalescing to demand change.
It's happening because a freedom-loving nation does not allow masked, militarized government agents to violate our civil liberties.

This can’t be repeated enough. Not only won’t they investigate, they may never even tell us who did this.
Think about the message that sends to the next ones. Nobody is safe.

I appreciate those out there protesting at great risk to their lives however i think the nation needs to grind this economy to a dead stop.
It's something everyone can do safely. No spending on ANYTHING but absolute necessities.
I understand some shut ins can not do this but very many of us can.

they're executing moms and nurses in the street. they're using preschoolers as bait. they're stealing people's dads and grandmas and children. they're tear gassing babies. they're staking out schools. there is no remedy but abolition. any proposal that doesn't start there is an act of violence.

Minneapolis residents have joined a church-run effort to donate groceries to immigrant families who fear being caught in public by federal agents. What started with a couple of hundred deliveries a week has quickly swelled into a vast operation involving thousands of volunteers. trib.al/1qT1xMw

Frost: For so long, the right wing has held up patriotism as a vibe, as an aesthetic. But patriotism is more than bald eagles and flags and beer. Patriotism is about loving the people who live in the damn country — every single one of them.

We need to campaign just as hard for increased voter access as we do for candidates we like.

Why the fuck are our politicians doing NOTHING? We have a system of checks and balances and instead of using it, democrats are hemming and hawing. We need a major party overhaul. Are constituents going to have to rush the capital and impeach him ourselves?

“Clinton is in the Epstein files!”
Great. Next time I come across a Clinton rally, someone wearing a Clinton hat, or flying a Clinton flag on their truck, I’ll be sure to let them know.
The rest of us want them ALL held accountable because we aren’t in a cult. Hope that helps.

Absolutely insane that all the wild conspiracy theories MAGAts have been spewing about democrats (Russian collusion, corrupt deals in the Middle East, sexual exploitation of children, pedophilia, money laundering, etc…) are LITERALLY true of the current GOP Regime and now they just shrug it off.

A god who is helping a praying white middle-class housewife in Utah find her misplaced car keys while letting innocent brown people be deported and genocided is either discriminatory and void of compassion, or is completely lacking in power. Either way, it’s not a god I’m interested in worshipping.

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.
Do not.
