There are no individual solutions to systemic problems. We need to simultaneously hold space for the uncomfortable truths that (a) we all hold complicity for our parts in upholding unjust systems that kill, harm, and exploit people;

"But what about this group who doesn't deserve empathy?" Seriously, SHUT THE FUCK UP. You should give everyone empathy because they exist. Saying someone does not deserve empathy just means you don't see them as human. And EVERYONE is equally human, so everyone equally gets empathy.

Black people "voted the US out of fascism" in 2020. Then Biden rewarded us by ramping up racist mass incarceration of Black people further, and increasing cop killings of unarmed Black people, until 2024 was the year with the most cop killings in recorded US history. So yeah, that won't work.🤷🏿‍♂️

Hey, fellow mediocre white dudes, just wanted to let you know it’s okay to be mediocre. It truly is okay, we are good enough.

Every single white person should be deeply ashamed to live in a country where the murder of someone like Tasia Fortune is normalized and treated as a commonplace occurrence.

I'm far past feeling the need to defend people who celebrate the deaths of ghouls. We live under overt fascism. The regime hunts people in the streets. We are talking about political actors so foul that no moral reconciliation is possible. They can only be defeated. Mourning them is a betrayal.

Jose Altuve, the Astros second baseman, is listed at 5'6" and weighs about 150-160 pounds. Aaron Judge, the Yankees' right fielder, is listed at 6'7" and 282 pounds. Judge is a foot taller and a hundred pounds heavier than Altuve. Most of the difference is muscle mass.

We have to organize people around the 14th amendment. July 9th should be a holiday we should fight for (the day it was ratified), every American should know all 4 sections, should fight the American communications war around this.

Moderate/centrist dems should just become republicans, moving the Republican Party left, and opening of the Democratic Party to put forward actually good candidates.

John Roberts' Constitution forbids any attempt to proactively ameliorate racial discrimination and racial inequality, but permits open racial discrimination as long as there is a facially neutral explanation available, even if it isn't remotely plausible. This, my friends, is "Colorblindness."

I continue to believe that no two people have exactly the same gender identities so there are actually as many genders as there are people in the world. (But I don't think people are ready for that conversation.)

I'm not joking when I say mRNA technology is more important than "AI" and it's a tragedy we're throwing billions into one while our government is aggressively defunding the other.

One thing I'm seeing proposed more and more as a prophylaxis against another Trump is to ban felons from holding public office. And this might be an unpopular opinion, but I *hate* that plan. Here's why.

Just remember, a white supremacist segregationist world would sacrifice this greatness for its white primacy. A multiracial, multicultural, gender inclusive world is the only way to get something this great to happen. This is why the broligarchs have never accomplished this.

You have more in common with the people of Iran than you do with anyone in this administration, any member of the technocracy, anyone who is profiting from this war, or any billionaire. When you see Iranians forming human chains outside key infrastructure sites, you should feel a sense of kinship.

One of the biggest lies that media keeps repeating from right-wing commentators & politicians is “people don’t want to work anymore”. Actually, people *love* to work hard — if the work is meaningful and workers are respected. It’s a management skill issue. anildash.com/2026/04/06/p...

White privilege is just a fancy way of saying “you don’t have to deal with racism”, it doesn’t mean you have a Rolls Royce and a staff of servants. It does mean you don’t have to worry about ICE tackling you in the hallway because a neighbor said you “look illegal.”

No I don't want "humane" deportations, for the same reason I don't want "friendly" cops in schools or "understanding" genital inspectors at sporting events. The problem is the fascism, not that the fascism is rude.

I honestly believe our most powerful position in a toxic time that feeds on cynicism, apathy,& despair is to genuinely care and act for a better world. Cynicism is our enemy. We should check it, incl. on the left. It’s not intellectually superior. It’s the virus they’re trying to infect us with. NO

New text scam just dropped: impersonating FasTrak to get people to pay supposed toll fees. I just got one. I don’t drive. I don’t even have a license. No way I’m clicking on that. Never click links from unknown numbers, no matter who they say they are.
