(Obviously said groups are not behind what the catholic empire stands for, but as far as Leo's speaking truth to power...yes.)

Almost all of the pagans, witches, atheists, and agnostics in my life are behind Pope Leo right now. This is the best example I can think of to combat the far right extremist claim that christians are always hated because of who they are instead regardless of what they do.

Kansas governor Laura Kelly is expected to veto the bill, but a GOP majority could override the veto. Kansans are being urged to contact their local representatives in the hopes of sustaining a veto.

50+ people held a "pee-in" at the Kansas State Capitol after legislators last week passed a "gut-n-go" (when a bill is copy/pasted into the body of another passing bill to avoid public testimony hearing) anti-trans, bounty hunter bathroom bill #topeka #transrights #ksleg #bathroombill #trans #kansas

This is a large turnout for the city. As of 6pm, 35 people had signed up to give verbal public comment. The chambers are completely filled with an additional 60 people in the break-out room and entrance hall. (2/2) #Kansas #icedetainment #iceout #corecivic #ice #communityorganizing

Leavenworth, Kansas, residents have currently packed City Hall for the committee's hearing about CoreCivic who is trying to win special-permit permission to establish a Kansas detention center. CoreCivic is a known prìson contractor with IC E.(1/2) #Kansas #corecivic #iceprotest #communityorganizing

This morning, evangelical churches across the country will be praising God for the b0mbs dropped in the name of their own 'safety.' This is what Christian nationalism does for power. This is what 'gaining the world but losing your soul' looks like. And this is all connected to the ongoing gènòçìdè.
On a background picture of massive explosions are two text boxes. One is a quote next to a cut-out of DJT giving a press conference. The quote reads: "I just want to thank everybody and, in particular, God. We love you, God." The other, smaller text reads "STATEMENT FROM DONALD J. TRUMP FOLLOWING THE DROPPING OF "BUNKER BUSTER" BOMBS ON IRAN June 21, 2025"

I am watching as outlets that haven't covered bombings in the last 2 years of genocide now publish footage of the damage to Isràelì buildings. We cannot allow empathy to be conditional. Palestinian lives and homes are not worth less. Watch the narrative being spun these next few weeks.

again I hate to sound like an old lady, but the Iraq War directly influenced the two presidential elections that followed for Democrats, especially, and Barack Obama won in 08 because he wasn’t in the Senate to cast a vote on the Iraq War and got to say he opposed it when Hillary Clinton didn’t

I am deeply worried about folks knowing where to find each other as surveillance gets worse. There are so many people who - if their social media accounts were terminated tomorrow - wouldn't know their friends/allies phone#s or addresses. How will folks keep each other safe in the dark? #organizing

And what will be deemed anti-Christian? Everything street preachers have yelled for decades: LGBTQIA+ rights. No-Fault Divorce. Birth Control. Abortions. Pàlèstìnìàn's right to LIVE. Free speech. Read @swordsjew.bsky.social 's #wildfaith for a list. Our parents taught us this was always the plan.

My father was radicalized under Reagan. He often told us with pride how R.R. had called on Germany to tear down its wall. I am thinking on that as those who backed RR continue to build walls out of both brick and policy. #Evangelical ideals are always conditional. #christianright #iblp #project2025

I get it. It's hard for some folks to come to terms w/ how the institutions that are supposed to protect our rights, to be the firewall, are...not that. The sooner we abandon the idea that America is somehow "exceptional" in its ability to be fascist-resistant, we can be honest about what we face.

A Christianity that gets offended at the idea of a society using its resources to care for one another is a Christianity that has abandoned Jesus a long time ago.

Many people are deeply resistant to the idea that fascist strategies are in use, bc in their minds (&the mind of Hollywood) 'fascism' is defined not as a set of targeted rule but as 1940s Germany. I don't know how to convey it looks different when the country is much larger and in the age of tech.

I think we can appreciate #corybooker taking a stand without turning him into a hero. Yes, it was an commendable step, plus he broke the record held by a racist yt guy. But be clear on why he did it: "our constituents are asking us" Folks calling, showing at #townhall did this. Keep the pressure on.
A photo of Cory Booker in a suit speaking at a podium is accompanied by a quote by him which reads: "I rise with the intention of disrupting the normal business of the U.S. Senate for as long as I am physically able. Our constituents are asking us to acknowledge that this is a crisis. I am going to stand here until I no longer can."

Marginalization isn't morally exculpatory. We can be marginalized on one axis (by being trans for example) and do harm on another (say, through whiteness). Ta Nehisi Coates wrote about this in The Message and he's absolutely right.

A local Satanic group planned to hold a black mass at the Kansas Statehouse but became obstructed by counter protests by other religious groups.

This was outside the #Kansas state capital today.A Satanic group was barred from their scheduled Black Mass inside the rotonda & this is one of the #nationalists who stood in opposition as they gathered outside.When we tell you they want another Holy War,please believe us🫠 #authoritarian #freespeech
A man dressed in military camo and boots wears sun glasses, a mask, and a helmet with goggles pulled up. Above this he wears a white tunic and robe with a large, brown cross on the front. He is taking a knee across the street from the Statehouse. In his right hand he grasps a large cross, in his right hand he holds a bicolored flag. The top half is dark blue and the bottom half is white. Stitches upon the flag is a red x-like symbol reminiscant of the old crusades. A police car and police stand near a group of protesters on the capitol driveway.

Despite legislators editing rules to target TSG, they still came. Nationalist Xians did, too. Pay attn to the language: "[Slobodnik] praised [xians] referring to them as the Navy Seals of the Catholic faith. He said these activists were willing to confront God’s enemies..as if on a field of battle"

Watching #lotr extended on streaming vs dvd is great because of the sharper image, but nothing prepared me for Elrond's line: "He turned from that path a long time ago. He has chosen exile" followed by "looking for gluten free options that are affordable" Ads. I remember why we moved to dvds.

It seems pretty fucked up that protesting outside car dealerships is turning out to be more effective than protesting at political sites. #teslatakedown is getting more heat then any organized letter or phone call campaign in recent memory. Capitalism is a hell of a drug.
