I don’t mean it as a gotcha. Clearly too many people don’t care about the rights and dignity of other people unless it affects them. I wish they did, but the current political climate makes it clear that they don’t.

So I think this is worth bringing up to people about any social justice issue. Racism and nativism are used to control white workers. Patriarchy hurts men. Transphobia hurts cisgender people.

However, it is crucial to communicate to people that these ideologies are fundamentally bad and need to be abolished or else people can walk away thinking “We need to implement transphobia the ‘right’ way so it stops hurting cis people.”

It bares repeating, transphobia hurts cisgender people and transgender people.

I don’t say anything on reddit.

I hope the republicans have better aim this time.

Finally, this is what is keeping Texas in the bottom half of educational rankings, the kids meowing. Just take care of that and things will turn right around.

They make profit off of being a useless barrier that prevents customers from accessing money they’ve contributed to use towards their own healthcare. They do nothing of any real value. Their constant profit seeking kills people. Every single administrator in their company is killing people.

Luckily, they won’t come after me because everything I said was true.

Yes I am.

It really pisses me off when the cars are backed up but the person in the drive through still has to spend time doing land acknowledgements for each customer and asking them their preferred pronouns. /s

Don’t make me post the poem again…

This is good to hear but we need to do everything we can to make each attempted deportation difficult. It’s a shame that I don’t know any undocumented immigrants to protect, and neither do you.

Alex Jones use to complain about transhumanists but now that they guy who actually wants to put computer chips in your brain has control of the federal government his top concern is… (literally looking a infowars right now)… oh god just constantly glazing trump. Also, zelensky is a warmonger who wants nukes.

Keep the tradition alive!

This is more evidence for what I call “the meta conspiracy.” I think conspiracy thinking has been actively promoted by the media and government in order to distract from actual government conspiracies. It both keeps people distracted with “UAPs” and “Adrenochrome” while also making any serious discussion of oligarchy, censorship, and oppression look ridiculous by association with crackpots.

That is unfair to claim they don’t give a shit about genocide. Most of our representatives care deeply and are doing everything within the powers of the legislative branch…

…to support genocide. They fucking love it!

I agree, arrest the cop too.

Wouldn’t barely breaking even actually be exceptionally good in the history of twitter? I though it had been burning money from its conception.

Cool, but it the more learn the more I find that I’d rather Dansup wasn’t becoming the darling of the fediverse.

To enforce inequality and keep people subjected to unjust laws.

I like to ask people who want to be tough on immigration, if you were arrested right now and accused of not being a citizen could you prove that you are?

Address, Drivers License, SSN? Non citizens can have all of those. A passport should work if you have one, but if you don’t have it on you, you might be detained for a long time before you can get it and prove your citizenship.

Now, under the EO even having your birth certificate won’t cut it. You’d need to prove one of your parents was a citizen. So what? We’re all going to walk around with a family tree of birth certificates?

The heritage foundation has an argument prepared for the inevitable supreme court case. I think it’s shit, even for them, but SCOTUS seems like they’ll go along with anything.

Their argument hinges on the phrase “and subject to the jurisdiction there of” claiming that this somehow excludes non-citizens. Accepting this argument would have the weird implication of saying that non-citizens in the US are not subject to the jurisdiction of the US. So… how do other laws apply to them? How could they be charged with working or entering the US illegally?
