Tell you what, my mood is wrecked

I need to know why @bsky.app has suspended Sarah Kendzior. I would like anyone, @aaron.bsky.team or @pfrazee.com or anyone at @support.bsky.team or @moderation.bsky.app can answer this question but I need to know. If it’s a non-answer I’m going to draw conclusions. We all know her work. Explain.

Hello @support.bsky.team I heard from Sarah Kendzior @sarahkendzior.bsky.social that her account was suspended. Can you please look into this and reinstate her account? She’s a published author and scholar on authoritarianism. Her presence here is valuable. cc: @jay.bsky.team @aaron.bsky.team

Comrades, it’s time for another thread about lessons I learned as a union organizer writing/working campaigns for public employees across multiple states from 2008-2024. Here’s a big one: leaders of progressive organizations are often FAR more conservative and risk-averse than their base 🧵 1/x

I do think this is a point of radicalization because a lot of angry, angry normal people were ready to dig in and suffer a lot in order to make fascists suffer a little, and their resolution was sold out and made into a mockery

seems to me that those democrats inclined not to fight perceive themselves as living through a somewhat ordinary cycle of presidential overreach and backlash and not something much more significant and dangerous

Genuinely, what is the use of a group of people who will not even work to ensure THEIR OWN survival, much less that of constituents or targeted communities? It's beneath contempt.

What I'll never understand abt "moderate" Dem enthusiasm for risking it all to do a deal w Republicans is that the regime has ALREADY SHOWN that they will act in defiance of existing civil rights & appropriations laws. Why on earth would you expect them to comply with the stipulations of any deal?

I want to be clear I am not speaking from opinion or principle, because we don't do that. It is not our business. Our business is politics, and this is malpractice on the scale of turning left from home plate. The public's standard is low: swing and get knocked down. But you have to keep swinging.

The average SNAP benefit per month is $177 a person. The average ACA benefit per month is up to $550 a person. People want us to hold the line for a reason. This is not a matter of appealing to a base. It’s about people’s lives. And working people want leaders whose word means something to them.

Joyce Carol Oates
@Joyce... 17h O
So curious that such a wealthy man never posts anything that indicates that he enjoys or is even aware of what virtually everyone appreciates— scenes from nature, pet dog or cat, praise for a movie, music, a book (but doubt that he reads); pride in a friend's or relative's accomplishment; condolences for someone who has died; pleasure in sports, acclaim for a favorite team; references to history. In fact he seems totally uneducated, uncultured. The poorest persons on Twitter may have access to more beauty & meaning in life than the
"most wealthy person in the world."

Oates is a liar and delights in being mean.

I made a “how do you do, fellow kids?” joke to someone in their mid 20s who, it turns out, was too young to have heard of that meme. So “how do you do, fellow kids?” is now an example of “how do you do, fellow kids?”

one of my spicy takes, for example, is that limits on strikes are unconstitutional under the 13th Amendment, because if we have a right to be free from forced labor, we must necessarily have a right to stop working and negotiate the conditions of our labor

My take today is this: everyone who dismissed and belittled No Kings as “performative” and “not going to move the needle” etc etc needs to take a seat and start listening to political organizers who know what they’re doing. There’s a direct link between No Kings and white rural areas shifting left
