American conservatism just doesn’t appeal to me because I’m not scared of everything.. not scared of immigrants, crime, using public transportation, cities. I’m interested in other people and like talking to them. Even if someone is weird it doesn’t really bother me.

all i can say is live. you have to live. if you’re trans, queer, a woman, bipoc, disabled, an immigrant: you must live. we have to support each other. we have to be visible and loud if and when we can. and above all else we have to live

Beating fascism in the long term will require moving past liberalism.

I'm not doomering, but I am pissed. Dems ran a tepid, more-of-the-same, "but we're not the other guy" campaign, completely botched Israel-Palestine, should have pulled Biden WAY earlier and still cant handle Trump. Absolutely embarrassing we are in the position we're in.

well it seems the democrat strategy of courting conservative suburban voters has failed once again. let's try it a four or five more times and then connect to reassess in 2040 or so

regardless of the election’s results it’s obvious this country has gotten way more rightwing especially amongst men and i think a lot of that is what is fed to us online, we have to figure out a way to stop every dude under 35 from turning into crypto hitler

i just think of how little regard a state must have for human life when capital punishment cannot even be bothered to be shelved for as long as possible when there is even the slightest chance that you may executing someone wrongfully. what an irrational, killing machine

The two stats I learned this week that blew me away were that the US federal govt gives more to Lockheed Martin than to the Dept of Education, and that some universities get more from Dept of War than they do from tuition. Upended my understanding of universities as warmakers.

Arms manufacturers have embedded themselves in STEM programs across the country, creating engineering degree to defense industry pipelines. In 2020, the gov gave more $ to Lockheed Martin than the Dept. of Ed. My 2022 investigation for @inthesetimesmag inthesetimes.com/article/lockhe…

Refaat Alareer wrote a poem called “If I Die,” asking people to fly a kite in his name if he’s killed to give hope to orphaned children. He wrote it for his daughter, Shaima. Israel killed him. Months later Shaima had a baby. Israel killed Shaima. And her husband and baby.

Today is one of those moments where we have to remember that the cops were not actually defunded in 2020. The ruling class actually doubled down on funding them, to repress us in moments like this.

USC SENDING IN HUNDREDS OF LAPD COPS TO ARREST COLLEGE STUDENTS ON THEIR OWN CAMPUS. This is the state of higher education in America.
