They train young men to drop fire on people. But their commanders won't allow them to write 'fuck' on their airplanes because it is obscene.

if they want another draconian crime bill they have the perfect person for it in the white house

Yeah there's a reason why the media is framing the "crime wave" as crime being up X% compared to this point in time exactly one year ago and not, say, comparing it to 2019 crime rates.

people for "some reason" think crime is up....just not in their community




and as always, the part they want to ignore is that no matter how money we give cops they seem to never actually do their jobs and solve crimes:

osita out today with a good line on this sort of thinking which is all the libs seem to have these days — but they've won this concession, the left has no power, the centrists continue to kick them though........ so hey the dems must be right on course for a big mid term win!

The level of privilege that people display when they say that voting doesn't matter, or that both parties are the same actually, is astounding to me. For me and millions of other queer people, especially trans people, your votes, and the party in power, absolutely matter. One party wants to revoke our rights and see us disappear from the face of the earth, the other party supports us and wants to expand our rights. It must be a wonderful feeling to be a cis het person staying home from the polls because nothing's going to change in your personal life either way, so why bother. This is true not only at the federal level, but state and local too. Where do you think the bathroom bills, genital inspection before school sports bills, et al are coming from? Cities and states, where your numerically your vote matters even more. I would encourage people with this mindset to think about vulnerable people in different circumstances than their own when they decide to stay home.

No war but class war. The identity of the foot in the boot on our face is immaterial next to the fact that it's oppressing us.

I just am absolutely in love with 'WHERE DO YOU THINK BATHROOM BILLS COME FROM???' when the loving democratic VP literally housed trans women with men using the same logic. Absolute loving dogbrain poo poo.

I know we make a lot of comparisons to poo poo like the Weimar Republic but tbh I don't even think they had a large amount of people in charge all 'now we can't just ignore the valid concerns of these people, sure I may dislike their beer hall riot but we have to be bipartisan', right? Like, they ignored them and that was bad and dumb but they didn't actively try to work with the guys they thought were trying to take over?
