a lot of people act like there's a trade being offered where we give up trans athletes in sports and in exchange fascism is defeated forever

the capitalist ruling class is obviously just using the two party system to pull a good cop/bad cop kayfabe narrative on us in service of capitalism and that's why both parties are united in this antisocialist/anticommunist rhetoric and are actively punching left in a time of dangerous open fascism

This morning in Biddeford, Maine, a 26-year-old man said goodbye to his wife and daughter and left for work. Moments later he was dead, shot in the head by ICE agents, the second man ICE has killed in six days. ICE is killing our neighbors. ICE cannot be reformed. Abolish ICE.

Reporter: "Are you rebuilding nukes?" 🇮🇷Araghchi: "No we are committed to peace." Reporter: So you accept Trump’s request for inspection? 🇮🇷Araghchi at 7:00 PM🔥: "Sure - if we can send our team to Israel to see if they have nukes. If Israel has them, then Iran should too."👏

the capitalist ruling class uses our own money to pay for the "protection" of police and military they use to oppress and exploit us while also violently stealing land and resources from others to keep for themselves because nation-states function just like glorified hyper-organized crime syndicates

I absolutely hate military flyovers at sporting events. Four military helicopters just did flyover in Seattle at the #WorldCup US vs Australia match. Say NO to militarism. #NoWarButClassWar

BE VIGILANT!! There's no peaceful solution. They will suspend the election, or just refuse to acknowledge the loss and require physical force to remove them. This does not end without them attempting to kill a lot of people. No, they don't have a right to do any of this shit.

For those too young to remember, Obama ran on a platform of peace, development, reform, massive change. He delivered war, the greatest upward redistribution of wealth since the Great Depression, deregulation, and violence against protesters. ...

They told us for decades these wars were about “freedom” and “security.” Now they barely hide it. Threatening to invade Iran’s Kharg Island to seize oil isn’t defense, it’s old-fashioned imperialism with modern weapons. Working people pay the price while corporations chase the profits.

Goal should be for progressives to oust neoliberal corporate Dems. At this point your choices are fascism or neoliberals. Corporate Dems are happy to think we have no alternatives bc the system is rigged against 3rd parties. We need enough people vote progressive to change the DNC power structure.

A 40% pay increase, the right to walk off the job if federal agents (i.e. CBP/ICE) pose a threat to them *and* the contract expires in April 2028 so they can demand more ahead of the Olympics. Shoutout Local 11, shoutout unions.

There has been an enormous amount of interference on the part of the state DNC in the Maine senate race, but not to stop Platner It has been used to stop @andrealaflamme.bsky.social who‘s background in public health brings FAR more to the table in Maine than a domestic abuser with an oyster company

👻Calvinboo Congress👻@emericanjezebel.bsky.social

There are two other candidates in this race, one if which has faced FAR MORE dnc suppression than platner ever has, to the point where they forced her to be a write in candidate and refused to let her participate in debates, despite her filing her candidacy on time.

Life in Gaza today: Left- Israel is blocking access to landfill & banning trucks & heavy equipment or other heavy equipment to the enclave so Palestinians have to live with an overpopulation of rodents, insects, scorpions, snakes, etc. Right- Netanyahu...."Jews are above everyone"!

Ken Jones, a retired San Francisco firefighter, has died from lung cancer after Blue Shield denied his treatment claims Any 2028 candidate who does not champion universal healthcare is a non-starter. I will not vote for someone who kills my neighbors for "shareholder value." You can go burn in hell

HELL YEAH and HALLELUJIAH!! Dr. Adam Hamawy, a doctor who served in Gaza and treated victims of Israel’s genocide, WON his primary in a deep Blue District. One more member of Congress who WON’T be voting to send our money to Israel and our kids to war!!
