It’s just an unapologetic defense of colonialism and ethnoreligious supremacy and a rejection of liberal democracy

Mit transatlantischen Partnerschaft vor Trump hat das kaum etwas zu tun. Doch EU und Personen der deutschen Bundesregierung stehen da und geben stehende Ovationen. Das lässt 2 Schlüsse zu: Entweder sie haben es nicht verstanden, oder sie sind einverstanden. Weiß nicht, was ich schlimmer finde 3/x
Black text on a yellow background - This is Alice's friend Sandy Ho, posting. Per Alice's wishes, this message is being shared at the time of her passing. Hi everyone, it looks like I ran out of time. I have so many dreams that I wanted to fulfill and plans to create new stories for you. There are a few in progress that might come to fruition in a few years if things work out. I did not ever imagine I would live to this age and end up a writer, editor, activist, and more. As a kid riddled with insecurity and internalized ableism, I could not see a path forward. It was thanks to friendships and some great teachers who believed in me that I was able to fight my way out of miserable situations into a place where I finally felt comfortable in my skin. We need more stories about us and our culture. You all, we all, deserve the everything and more in such a hostile, ableist environment. Our wisdom is incisive and unflinching. I'm honored to be your ancestor and believe disabled oracles like us will light the way to the future. Don't let the bastards grind you down. I love you all.
“Don’t let the bastards grind you down. I love you all.”
This Is Fascism
I don’t know who needs to hear this but the CDC is being eviscerated right now. America is not going to have any kind of outbreak response capacity after tonight. Americans’ health data is no longer secure. Say goodbye to federal public health in any capacity. It’s a disaster. We won’t recover.
Rodney Taylor still needs our help!
He’s still locked in an ICE camp.
He’s still going without his new prosthetic legs.
He’s still facing deportation to Liberia.
He’s still having necessary disability accommodations ignored.
Please keep sharing his story. Public pressure works!
This is who @emanabdelhadi.bsky.social is. Brilliant. Fearless. I fucking hate typing this shit out: Free Eman.

“We are told by leaders that we are the future. But when it comes to the ongoing pandemic, our present is being stolen right in front of our eyes.”
Incredible speech by Violet Affleck who warned about the ongoing dangers of COVID & Long Covid, & advocated for masks and clean air at the UN today!
CVF are proud supporters of the other important event at the UN today highlighting the need for "Clean Indoor Air".
It is of vital importance to *everyone*, but especially for Clinically Vulnerable people.
Thank you @drbronking.bsky.social

Wait, I thought the 2A (Second Amendment) was supposed to keep this from happening?!
It's why we've had to endure a horrific amount of gun violence, or so we've been told all our lives, right? Because something something FREEDOM, yes?
So where the hell is the "well-regulated militia?!"
On April 17, 2025 @aaup.bsky.social will bring together major higher ed unions, trade unions, student groups, and allied organizations in the fight to “Free Higher Education.” LEARN MORE: www.dayofactionforhighered.org?source=twitt...
In #Germany, a watershed moment: Just hours after commemorating the Holocaust, the centre-right has accepted the support of the #farright #AfD to pass a (largely symbolic) motion against immigration, tearing a massive hole into the so-called 'firewall', Germany's variety of the cordon sanitaire.

This map shows how much NIH funding goes to your state. I used the info on my state when I called officials to ask them to push back against the freeze. And if I can do it when my senators are Katie Britt and Tommy Tuberville...well, I mean...

This is a great piece.
"As deportations ramp up again, we have a choice: We can watch as our neighbors disappear or we can build on these proven strategies to protect the diverse communities we've built together."
Danke für die Antwort! Generell super mit den Podcasts-schade, dass es hier nicht geht. Besser wird’s dank chron. Erkrankung + #immunocompromised nicht (danke trotzdem!), deshalb sind hybride Veranstaltungen oder Aufzeichnungen immer gut für alle, die sich nach wie vor konsequent schützen #Teilhabe
Wäre sehr gerne dabei, was aber aus gesundheitlichen Gründen nicht geht(#CovidIsNotOver)-gäbe es die Möglichkeit, die Veranstaltung zu streamen o. aufzuzeichnen? Würde gerne für ein digitales Ticket bezahlen. Auch für Lehrkräfte interessant, gerade jetzt. Grüße von einem v.d. Lühe- und T. Mann-Fan
Mein Buch «Die Rhetorik der Rechten» ist leider sehr aktuell. Ich schaffe es zeitlich nicht, eine überarbeitete Neuauflage zu veröffentlichen. Das Buch ist mittlerweile vergriffen.Ich habe mich entschieden, es gratis zum Download zur Verfügung zu stellen: www.franziskaschutzbach.com/die-rhetorik...
I wrote about Trump's executive orders, including his attacks on trans and undocumented people, and how we should be orienting ourselves to defy fascist violence in this moment. This piece includes commentary from @chasestrangio.bsky.social and @silkys13.bsky.social.
