Some men are claiming their support of Republicans or their failure to vote is the 'fault' of women defending themselves & others from tired, sexist garbage mascarading as jokes Oh, & the garbage jokes are arcane knowledge that we can't comprehend What a fragile, aggrieved sense of self the OP has

Figured it had gone down this way. But we can still blame Trump AND Musk for being ruinous meglomaniacal shitbirds.

Turns out you don't have to have adequate literacy skills to ingest and spit out bs conspiracy videos. Maybe if "Is blonde, white, looks Ivanka-ish, is syncophantic" wasn't her only other set of qualifications, this wouldn't happen...nah

2 more ships off the coast of Bulgaria have been attacked by drone, and one sunk. This follows drone attacks last week that sunk a ship, with at least 10 people missing. Russia appears to be extended its hybrid warfare against more European interests www.msn.com/en-us/news/w...

No doubt the searching of Rep. Ilhan Omar's home is part of the renewed hate the Trump Admin has been throwing at the Somali community in Minnesota. Racism, anti-immigrant scapegoating, and misogyny drive this investigation. Going after a figurehead of the opposition is classic fascist suppression.

ZELENSKYY: At this very moment, when we are talking about peace, America gives Russia the opportunity to export diesel — that's millions, billions. It all goes toward the war against people, against Ukraine, against all of us.

a lot of people are replying with 'what are you going to do about it,' and while every level of government could do more, the powers the *DC City Council* has in this situation are comparatively limited. This isn't just voter intimidation, but an argument for statehood for the District of Columbia.

Over the past two weeks, I’ve been following the attempts to smear the Jane Doe in the Cornell University gang rape case and redirect blame from the seven fraternity men onto her. As usual, this campaign is built on a mountain of lies and misogyny. spitfirenews.com/p/cornell-ja...
