ICE is kidnapping people! The government is disappearing people! People who study fascism are fleeing the country! This is fascism and will not be defeated by Democratic Party. You can’t be tolerant of fascism. You fight fascism by any means necessary.

I think some in the Senate have convinced themselves that the backlash to folding will be limited to “the left” and therefore ignorable. Those people are deeply and profoundly misreading the moment and the stakes. Virtually every swing district House Dem walked the plank to vote NO for a reason.

Socialism works everywhere it has been tried and works amazingly until the US works to destroy it. Saying it “fails” is like saying someone fails to walk after you shoot them in the spine.

I love democracy. Democracy replacing dictatorships/monarchy in the government was human evolution. Now we need to replace dictatorships in our workplaces with democracy for our next phase of human evolution

In a warning for Colorado Democrats, a new poll shows their popularity slipping. Now what?
The strength of Republicans’ identification with working-class issues is a warning shot for the Democratic Party that’s lost ground across the country.

What’s the charge if ICE shows up to a school and a teacher *cough* umm… prevents [physically] the abduction of a student? Asking for a friend

And as inseparable. Before one says, "but I benefit from capitalism," consider how the other two also provide benefits, usually to the same people.

Climate change is class war. Imperialism is class war. Prison industrial complex is class war. Patriarchy is class war. White supremacy is class war. School vouchers are class war. Private healthcare is class war. Commodified housing is class war. Maybe the working class should fight back 🤷🏻‍♂️

If you didn’t know, “Caucasian” is a word created to place white people at the top of the racial hierarchy. You should remove it from your vocabulary and replace it with “white”

Although I will argue forevermore that no President was good, Jimmy Carter was likely one of the least bad and, (possibly) more importantly, spent a lifetime after his presidency committing to doing good. Leaves very big shoes to fill.

People who hate socialism hate gentle-parenting for the same reasons: they don’t actually know what it is, they have internalized trauma from the status quo, and they lack imagination for a better world

A federal voucher bill is closer to making it to the finish line than any that have come before it.
