Sucks that usually when someone is speaking into a microphone and says, "It says in the bible..." that it's going to be their interpretation of some excuse to hurt other people.

Just because your father found your mother in Korea during his deployment there; just because your husband is Mexican; just because you have LGBTQIA+ friends and family you adore...

No. You do not get to ignore the evil that Trump and MAGA represent. #politics

EFF, along with ACLU and the New York Civil Liberties Union, filed an amicus brief in the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit urging the court to require a warrant for border searches of electronic devices, an argument EFF has been making in the courts and Congress for nearly a decade.

"Your body, my choice" is the most disgusting thing I've ever heard.

I'm still here. This isn't my first rodeo
They took my home. My religion, my culture, but not my god. Not my flag not my spirit. y'all are all my people. Stay alive. Stay as safe as you can. And know that your not alone.

These bastards win when we let them turn us against each other.
Turn off the media. Go talk to your neighbors, check up on your friends.
If you're privileged, use it. They don't speak for us. I love you.

A reminder: The Paradox of Tolerance is a Social, not Moral, Contract:

Trump was yelling the election was rigged BEFORE the vote Tuesday. Now, he’s gonna record LESS votes than 2020 & he’s not screaming it’s rigged.

I know that FACTUAL inconsistency will be lost on low info people, but it will go into the underground history books about the rise of fascism in America.

This is a safety warning. Not a threat or meant to harm, only to help protect. I reported over 70 posts on X today & over 100 on TikTok, of MAGA bragging about forming rape squads. Please be careful. Don’t go out alone. Don’t wear the blue bracelets as they will target those. Keep yourselves & daughters safe please.

If you TRULY want to stop fascism:

• Stop visiting/subscribing to the NYT
• Ditto with WaPo
• Do not go to Fox
• Support Pro Publica
• Support Independent news

The Fourth Eatate failed us. Time to give our money to those who do REAL journalism, not act as stenographers or Nazi-Whisperers.
