If I’m understanding this correctly, X is owned by a white nationalist who pays poor people of color in developing countries to pretend to be working class white Americans to scare other white Americans into being afraid poor people of color from developing countries are going to ruin America?

It's impressive how international the right wing nationalist grift is, as Xitter inadvertently (?) revealed. "Japanese Ultranationalists" from Europe. "Irish" anti-immigration activists from the US & UK. "MAGA" from Russia, Israel, Serbia, Nigeria, Bangladesh, anywhere *but* the US. Ironic.

it just seems plainly clear to me that if you serve the country in any capacity, civil or military, and you are not a conservative white man, the Trump administration wants to make the workplace as hostile an environment as possible so you remove yourself

This is well outside my beat, so apologies for what might be an obvious question. But what’s to stop the administration from altering or destroying material in the Epstein files that may implicate Trump? Would we know if something had been destroyed? Are there unalterable redundancies somewhere?

This falls on the knife edge of "is actually helpful" & "is spiteful & eccentric" but I'd buy out MasterCard & have them sponsor & pay for every single NSFW artistic medium competition & jam that I can, including paying artists a modest living wage plus letting them sell the results to others.

As a victim of CSA and sex trafficking the fact that @jay.bsky.team and @aaron.bsky.team are fine with suspending people who speak out against CSA and abusers like totes gives off Mundus sine caesaribus vibes. ✨
Great job girly pops.

Remember how just a few years ago during the worst of the pandemic when we saw how the govt can actually do big things and saw that our collective health & well-being are intertwined, and then corporations got mad that they lost a modicum of power and helped fund a backlash of amnesia and fascism?

pretty funny in retrospect that QAnon hinged on the idea that powerful elites at the highest levels of government were smart enough to talk in code when sending emails to each other about their despicable crimes

If you search "separate locker room for gays/lesbians", you'll get a bunch of conservative news sites from 15 years ago and a bunch of mainstream sites from 25 years ago. Complete with literally the same talking points, including "what if we make them use a third option".

Let us be incredibly, abundantly clear:

We are demanding that Chuck Schumer resign for his continued betrayal of the American people.

If he does not willingly step aside, we are calling on the Senators in the Dem caucus to remove him and Dick Durbin from Senate leadership.

Shut us down for good reason.

Open back up without any of those reasons having been fixed.

You want us to have confidence in you?

You want us to think YOU can lead US?

Don’t get me wrong, it’s good to have a chance to be back.. but our pain produced nothing in return.

This deal to reopen the government is fucking disgraceful.

Tens of millions will lose their healthcare. Trump will be emboldened.

This is exactly what’s wrong with Democratic Party leadership and why we need more people in Congress who will actually hold the line.

One of two things is true:

1. Chuck Schumer genuinely felt this is a bad deal, so he voted against it, but he couldn't keep Senate Dems in line because he's a lackluster leader.

OR

2. Chuck Schumer orchestrated the shutdown deal w/ retiring Dems because he's a bad strategist and got rattled.
