I hope everyone knows that it's very easy for any social content platform, including Bluesky, to be a misery machine and that if you aren't intentional about it, they will absolutely decrease the positive impact you have on the world while making you less happy.

If empathy and simple decency won’t suffice to end the catastrophic madness that Israel is visiting on Gazans, hopefully self-interest can be mobilized by these well-documented revelations! As a Jewish American with cousins living in Israel, I’m devastated by this scheerpost.com/2025/04/25/w...

"In an earlier post, she wrote: "As for the inevitable death, if I die, I want a loud death, I don't want me in a breaking news story, nor in a number with a group, I want a death that is heard by the world, a trace that lasts forever, and immortal images that neither time nor place can bury."

“If I had a room jammed with trophies and awards, and a child of mine came to me and asked what I had done in defence of black people, and I had to tell that child that I had kept quiet, I would have to mark myself a total failure at the whole business of living.” Jackie Robinson

In March 1965, Viola Liuzzo traveled from Detroit to Alabama to assist with the Selma to Montgomery March. On this night 60 years ago, as she shuttled marchers to and from Selma, Liuzzo was brutally shot and killed by the KKK. We remember her immense sacrifice today. #womenshistorymonth

Unidentified men grabbing someone off the street and putting her in a car because she wrote an op-Ed. This as flatly authoritarian as anything we’ve seen in this country in a very long time.

anyway calling these "war plans" when they were actually plans to blow up an apartment building full of civilians because the girlfriend of a guy we don't like lived there sounds more like "terrorism plans" or perhaps even more accurately "terrorism factory creation plans"

How does anyone justify this anymore? If you do, I'm sorry, you're a genocidal psychopath. I hope someone in your life intervenes and talks to you about how you've completely dehumanized an entire people and become blinded by your hate and racism. www.haaretz.com/opinion/2025...

It’s a small detail but having the un-uniformed thug who’s detaining him wear a t-shirt with Captain America on it is a deft touch. Hail Hydra.

7 March 1942 | A French Jewish girl, Claudine Ruben, was born in Paris. She arrived at #Auschwitz on 20 July 1943 in a transport of 1,000 Jews deported from Drancy. She was among the 440 people murdered after selection in a gas chamber.

In 1890, the Tariff Act came into place in the United States. It placed tariffs on imports of up to 50%. While touted as a way to build American industry, there was also the hope it would force an annexation of Canada. It backfired. Let's learn more. 🧵1/10
The image is a black-and-white political cartoon depicting a man in a suit standing behind a counter labeled "Republican Platform." He is holding a bottle labeled "Untaxed Whiskey, 20¢ Gal." in one hand and a piece of cloth labeled "War-Taxed Common Cloth, Tariff 84%" in the other. Above the counter, a sign reads, "If you don’t see what you want, ask for it." The cartoon, signed by W.A. Rogers, appears to satirize the Republican Party's economic policies, highlighting the disparity in taxation between luxury items like whiskey and essential goods like cloth.
