He has interviewed AOC many times. Probably the elected official with the closest relationship to him.

Yes, but I mean this is typically code for cities being diverse and thus non-American in comparison to white majority suburbs and rural areas.

When she says middle class, she means white people.

At least some of them feel shame?

Every single person in the entire chain of command that massacred the schoolgirls in Minab, and that is currently carpet bombing Iranian civilians, needs to be tried and jailed in The Hague. Sick, depraved monsters drunk on imperial hubris.

A direct quote from you is "how dumb are these people" about people you do not know in a difficult situation. I'm not sure why your first response to a difficult situation is cruelty, but you might reflect on that instead of denying it. Have a nice day.

Your response to Americans abandoned by their government in conflict is to assume they are tourists and ask how dumb they are. Those people include students, people visiting their families, people making religious pilgramages, people seeking affordable medical treatments, and more.

Thinking that all Americans abroad are tourists, rather than having diverse and complex reasons to travel or live abroad is a mistake.

Systematic oppression has been part of the US since its founding (and before). I think the imperial boomerang is relevant when talking about the weapons of war militarizing the police, but the cruelty is not new.

They believe heaven is the fascist utopia they seek to build here. God is white, Jesus was white, and heaven will be whites only.

They still want to believe cops and soldiers are good respectable people who will observe human rights and dignity. Sad/misguided.

Workplace mistakes that lead to deaths are regularly prosecuted. Responsibility isn't abdicated just because you are at work.

To be fair, it would help if people gave artist credits while using artwork.

Republican women don't want to improve society for all women. They just don't want to be on the receiving end of misogyny and think they can "lean in" their way out of it.

Magic is for girls, science is for boys. Cats are girls, dogs are boys, etc. etc.

Only an administration intent on committing war crimes in the present and future would stoop to calling Wounded Knee a "battle" rather than what it truly was: a massacre of over 250 Lakotas, mainly women, children, and the elderly. 1/

Of course! I think the answer is more of a 'what is physically possible' thing than a legal distinction.

They can hold up your phone and scan your face without your agreement. But if you forgot your passcode, what can anyone do about it?

Tweet by Dmitry Medvedev: "Political crimes and assassinations have been carried out lately by a variety of left-wing liberal scum who support Banderite Kiev. Fico, Kirk. Who's next? Maybe it's time for the MAGA team to realize that by supporting Ukraine, they're supporting murderers."

It was Ukraine.

I wanted to mention iZombie!

This guy is enjoying shopping with his wife, when he shouldn't interact with her at all, except when required to fulfill their roles in the family.

I think this comes from the puritanical belief that men and women should be completely socially separate and have separate roles. This means that even married couples typically spent their time with same gender companions and only rarely spend time together.

If you want to show solidarity with Los Angeles, the best thing to do is organize protests against ICE tonight/tomorrow in your own cities.

Search the web for ICE rapid response networks in your own city / state and sign up. Help your neighbors.

Endless love for the people of Missoula

This is a Trump +27 county

And there it is. I feel like we've been holding our breath knowing this was coming.

Which means a lot of us won't. Thank you to everyone involved in direct action and community building. It's our best chance.

I work with high schoolers, and even politically-engaged debate nerds were not aware that Trump was a reality TV star and not a politician until quite recently.

This month we've seen historic protests in Hungary, Serbia, Turkey, Romania, and I'm sure it doesn't end there. Let's seize the moment for global solidarity and mutual inspiration.
