This is a direct result of the relentless anti-trans campaign that has fueled a moral panic, portraying trans and queer people as an inherent threat. Transphobia is homophobia.
Breaking: The Supreme Court is now officially considering taking up a case overturning same-sex marriage. This is the first time in history the court has considered rolling back this right.
They’re about to pull the plug on nearly every form of government assistance. Pay ATTENTION, because the shift won’t just affect those who rely on it, it’ll ripple through everything. SMH

“People get used to anything. The less you think about your oppression, the more your tolerance for it grows. After a while, people just think oppression is the normal state of things. But to become free, you have to be acutely aware of being a slave.” - Assata Shakur

🚨 BREAKING: Mangione’s defense just dropped a 114-page brief, moving to dismiss the indictment and strike Trump’s DOJ’s death penalty notice. The filing calls out political interference, illegal perp walks, prejudicial leaks, and says Trump’s DOJ is pursuing execution for political reasons, not law. Follow as I break this down. I’m covering Mangione’s trial with a trauma informed lens.
Just spoke with my CDC sources. They said that RFK Jr. has ordered officials to hide tuberculosis cases even as three active TB cases have just been reported in Maine. He’s also suppressing bird flu reports. Pandemics don’t start with viruses. They start with secrecy.

One of the scariest things, to me, is when people are in a deteriorating situation that progressively undermines their ability to understand it, like when nitrogen narcosis makes it harder for a diver to recognize the warning signs of nitrogen narcosis.

ICE was formed in 2003 You can absolutely get rid of them

The biggest problem with this debate in particular is this is not a debate at all. Fascists don’t debate. They use debate to launder their views so they can gain legitimacy, but when it comes down to it they simply want to kill people who aren’t them

Stephen Miller: "What would LA look like without illegal aliens? You would be able to see a doctor in the ER right away, no wait time, no problem. You kids would go to a public school that had more money than they know what to do with. Classrooms would be half the size."

While writing THERE IS NO PLACE FOR US, what I wanted most was for readers to feel the fury I carried during my reporting—the outrage, the horror at what this country forces our neighbors to endure. This @curaffairs review captures exactly what I hoped the book would convey:

And download books too, while you still can. They got libgen but Anna’s archive is still up, as are sites like monoskop. AI scrubbed those archives and they are trying to do land enclosure again—we still have time before the fence is locked.
As the university system collapses and millions succumb to tech-induced brain rot, the concept of the autodidact—a self-educated person who loves learning for its own sake—will become more important than ever. Read widely. Form study groups. Let the library be your college.

when we see ourselves as separate from fellow workers, that's exactly what empowers billionaires and capitalists to thrive while the rest of our lives get worse and worse
the public has no obligation to participate in strikes!
