When we finally rout the fash from US governance, we will need a sort of Sesame Street For Adults push, to jumpstart free education for all.
That will prevent a re-eruption of demagoguery.

Don't let MAGA cruelty colonize your mind. Trump is evil & fascist, yes; but his age and failing body are irrelevant. All bodies fail.
Our new paradigm will celebrate human dignity. We will lift up all, even as we struggle unceasingly for a better world.

Las Venas Abiertas de Latinamerica is just as relevant today as when Galeano wrote it.
The silver is gone, sucked out by r@c1st sl@vem0ngers, but the oil is still there, and the greed of the imperialists demands it; no wealth will remain, only the shadow of misery.

Let's have a bit of fun for a moment. 🧵Suppose, 6 billion years ago, a civilization that had thousands of years of tech under its belt, built a Dyson sphere, composed of thousands of giant star-orbiting solar-power platforms. And just as we (ok, our hegemons) are trying to do,

Hello, I'm a trans Leftist with an antifa attitude.
Am I supposed to pretend I haven't been living in a dangerous police state? I've been jailed & threatened with a 10-year sentence (I won).
For being trans.
"The problem" is RW fascism. No, I won't shut up.
Frightened, are ya?

"Hate speech" is a threat or vilification within a credible context of violence.
Despite hysteria from the Right, there is no context of violence against them.
Latinos face a context of violent repression in the USA. Violence against transgender persons is well documented.

If you're Latino, trans, and/or Left, you're a target of Trumpian fascism.
Your personal and group praxis needs to reflect the tools that are being brought to bear against you, to deprive you of your rights and power.
One of those tools is Palantir software. Read this excerpt from Wired.

Si vives en México or if you live in Canada, please help end the "safe country" designation for the US.
That status blocks Brown and trans refugees.
I can prove violent repression by US authorities, in my case. But it's hard for most people in these categories.
We're not safe here.

Our enemies plot and plan and scheme, to steal our long-earned Social Security.
"At most," they think, "the old people will carry on at town halls."
But we must swear together now: No one who loses their SS shall ever pay another penny of mortgage or rent.
And that will bring the bastards down!

We have no right to allow the Trump regime to destroy humanity.
We have no right to wait for the next compromised election.
We must act NOW.
We have an obligation to depose the pedo dictator, to end oligarchy, to repair the Earth.
Each in their manner, for all, unceasingly.

Hilarious thing about being an easily 'clocked' trans gal, is watching my effect on reactionaries.
Funnier stll: they call their bigoted, patriarchalist discomfort "morals."
Morals arise from evolved and developed compassion. Morals are frontal lobe stuff.
We are all illegals, to the MAGAs.

We will not be intimidated. We are America. MAGAs are welcome, of course, to also engage in unarmed protest.
