When people talk about how systemic and structural issues don't exist but the data all looks like this.

One of the most bonkers articles I have ever read @theatlantic.com - outright disinformation and revisionist history top to bottom. Myth making at its best, so deeply irresponsible of @theatlantic.com to publish this. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...

Worth putting it on the record here, though you probably already know it: “Alligator Alcatraz” is a concentration camp.

Reconciling our past, assessing our present, reclaiming our future. What could a sovereign Canada mean, and how will we get there? (1/6)

Herman Melville on moderates, all the way back in 1857:

The Supreme Court's Dobbs decision didn't just affect abortion – it's now endangering access to contraception. Some lawmakers are pushing to restrict birth control methods by classifying them as abortifacients. buff.ly/0nm8wX3

The recent spate of political violence in the United States, as well as elsewhere, is not a novelty, writes @davidallengreen.bsky.social. www.prospectmagazine...

Three actions to consider... Find allies—find community, link up, like, or lurk Fight with purpose—even small acts of defiance matter Take a breather—doomscrolling feeds the fear they want

I like the Fred Hampton method. Organize mutual aid, community support, grassroots social programs. Rent parties, legal defense funds, help organize farmers markets and flea markets, neighborhood watches, childcare groups. And every step of the way: "This is socialism. This is what we do."

Some U.S. media (such as the Washington Post here) trace U.S.-Iranian animosity back to the 1979 Islamic Revolution, conveniently forgetting that the CIA helped overthrow a democratically elected Iranian government in 1953, forcing Iranians to endure decades of the Shah’s brutal rule.

just saw a group of masked men stuffing masked ICE agents into an unmarked car, who were saying "we're ICE we're ICE!" but the abductors shouted to the crowd "no we're ICE!" no one knew who was ICE, so no one in the crowd said anything.

Mr. Antiwar President has us inches away from a Civil War at home and a nuclear war abroad in defense of an ally that is starting random hot regional wars to detract from its ongoing genocide. I’m sure all of this will just naturally cool off.

I need everyone on Normal People internet to know that American Girl Doll Instagram is doing doll protests today. There are tiny t-shirts and signs. AND THEN I realized it's a joint protest with the Barbie ppl, where there are EVEN TINIER SIGNS.

Just how racist is Stephen Miller? Even if you think you know, this timeline is wild www.tiktok.com/t/ZTjtrkpqr/

Trump's politics have always had one organizing principle: They ruined America, and we have to take it back. The “theys” are immigrants, trans people, journalists, Democrats, civil servants, and so on. We talked to those whom Trump has targeted about how they plan to face the next four years.

LAPD when they think no one’s looking

LAPD fired rubber bullets at Australian journalist @laurentomasi.bsky.social

LATEST: 500 Marines from the 2nd Battalion, 7th Marines are ready to deploy and provide backup to the National Guard troops on the ground in L.A., U.S. Northern Command says.

"The USA today is not the USA I fought and came close to dying for," says 100-year-old Frank Hartzell, who helped liberate the Nazi concentration camp Mauthausen. His experience offers a warning about the dangers of political extremism:

On the latest episode of the pod — The far right is having a moment. In Canada and around the world, white nationalism is on the rise. @antihate.ca's Evan Balgord sits down with @caradrianh.bsky.social to discuss what the future might hold. ricochet.media/podcasts/ #cdnpoli #FarRight #IBWTE

At the ICE raid and subsequent community resistance in Paramount, California this morning, this skater kid ate dozens of munitions from Border Patrol agents, walked away slowly and flipped them off.

President Trump's deployment of federalized National Guard troops is unnecessary, inflammatory, and an abuse of power. The Trump administration is putting people in LA in danger and undermines the democratic principle that the military should not police civilians. www.reuters.com/world/us/whi...

Better safe than sorry… 🚨Heavy ICE Presence Expected in Los Angeles on Sunday. A bilingual warning is being shared with the community — including areas to avoid. Stay alert. Protect each other. Know your rights.

The Parliament of the Xinka People in May said no to the reopening of a Canadian-owned silver mine in their territory in Guatemala. As the Xinka wait to hear whether Guatemala’s Ministry of Energy and Mines will respect the decision, two representatives visited B.C. last week to deliver a message.

I think we’ve reached a boiling point when it comes to ICE. Today in Minneapolis, a militarized task force raided the beloved Lake Street taqueria, Las Cuatro Milpas—and the community was not having it. Agents from ICE, the DEA, FBI, ATF, IRS and HHS rolled up looking like they were ready for war.

Americans are taking to the streets and showing up in US cities by the thousands to protest a plethora of President Donald Trump’s second-term policies—from trans rights to travel bans from foreign nations and deportation policies. This is a WIRED guide on how to best protest safely.

It's a grey, rainy day, and I needed to hear something beautiful. Sharing with you! Music and the arts make everything better ❤️🎭🎶 youtu.be/-g4UWvcZn5U?...

International journalists can’t enter Gaza. But healthcare workers can. That makes their testimony vital. They can cut through to the reality of the atrocities Israel is committing in Gaza. In today’s video, you’ll hear their firsthand accounts of witnessing a genocide:

Former Israeli PM Ehud Olmert “Enough Is Enough. Israel Is Committing War Crimes..No external foe we've fought against over the past 77 years has caused greater damage to Israel than what the Itamar Ben-Gvir, Netanyahu and Smotrich-led government has inflicted on us” www.haaretz.com/opinion/2025...

Canada Post is broke, negotiations with the union have stalled, and now postal workers are refusing overtime work in an effort to push back against company proposals that would see the part-time workforce triple. my latest for @pressprogress.ca 📬

Nearly half of British youth would rather be young in a world with no internet. It’s a damning indictment of what social media has become. As its harms continue to grow, governments need to act — but they must take the right measures instead of reaching for easy fixes.

Globe journalism was never meant to be a permanent obstacle to someone’s success, with the worst decisions and moments in regular people’s lives accessible by a few keystrokes for the rest of time. Fresh Start aims to empower all people who want to start over.

Incredible — After shooting at a group of diplomats from nearly *two dozen* countries, the Israeli military says it "regrets the inconvenience caused." The diplomats were from China, Brazil, India, Russia, Japan, Canada, Mexico, France, Türkiye, Spain, Portugal, Jordan, the UK, Egypt, and more.

This is real life, y’all. These aren’t “democratic talking points”—this is a real mother and real babies at risk of going hungry, all because Republicans want to be greedy. Somebody please tell me how you can feed a growing family of 6 on $15 per day… you can’t.

Reputable newspapers printing AI generated articles about books that don't exist is a bad sign. The public doesn't trust media content any more, and it will only get worse. Writers deserve more than AI generated reviews, too.

Man who had a student kidnapped and trafficked because she wrote something he didn't like yuks it up with man who had a journalist dismembered with a hacksaw because he wrote things the man didn't like.
