"Ethiopia’s Tigray war, which lasted from 2020 to 2022, is one of the most criminally under-covered conflicts in modern history" “It is a really horrific and extreme form of sexual violence, and one that deserves the world’s attention.”🧵
I saw that an acquaintance on FedBook has personally gotten over 55 people to cancel their Disney subscriptions. This is a homebound person and she found her lane and is absolutely kicking ass at the moment. People are doing things.

Anti-Black racism is the lifeblood of US Fascism. It is the main animus above even the others. It is as central to US Fascism as Antisemitism was to Nazism. These fuckers hate Black people in every way, for any reason. It is pathological and obsessive. It is genocidal. It is fucking evil.
The reporter in this video asking about MEMPHIS that Trump snapped at and called “obnoxious” was @ebonymcmorris.bsky.social
LOL she has never changed on any fundamental level. She found a new grift with milquetoast liberal progressive shit but she is still the same raging pick me and bigot who threw around the g word slur against Asian people, and who hung with all the Fascists YouTubers. Including almost marrying one.
"Why are women celebrating the death of a man who argued birth control screws up women’s brains and that women have the Jezebel spirit, whining that they have no interest in getting married?" A question I sarcastically asked shoe0nhead when she whined that it was women celebrating Kirk's death.
strangely, everyone who stans kamala is silent. wonder why? almost like she never gave a shit about u and that she just was doing what was electorally viable. if she won, the right would've doubled down on project 2025 and made it project 2029. capitalism always decays into fascism given time
My favorite sign of the night.
Hundreds of Filipino activists marched against ICE in San Francisco today, denouncing the detention of Filipino migrants. “We have Filipino migrants who aren’t being assisted by their Philippine government," organizers said. missionlocal.org/2025/09/hund...
Hey everyone -- I want to say thank you to everyone who has donated or even just shared my moving fund so far; we're almost halfway there! My move is in a little over 4 months away now, which is sooner than you'd think!! I'm really excited, and hoping that I can land in philly with a fresh start <3
🫂 ❤️ Been going through that as well, on top of the normal amount probably because of everything happening and some personal stuff too. Hope it lets up for you soon my friend.
As they commit torture and murder in different ways.
Chicago. Posted today.
The feds keep emerging from the lot and then retreating. In this instance it was to protect another group of agents arriving. (After this, as the gate closes, they fire off another round of pepper balls at people just because)
Ezra Klein 🤝 Neera Tanden Despite the overwhelming popularity of abortion rights in all states, we should surrender instead
Hearing from a few folks now that five protesters have been taken into federal custody.
35th Ward Alderperson Anthony Quezada just walked up to the scene and grabbed a mask.
For folks asking, Pastor (Reverend? Sorry, we keep messing this one up, lol) Black is okay. He's still OTG right now, checking on others in the dark, after taking multiple volleys of pepper balls to the face and being repeatedly brutalized by ICE:
State Senator Graciela Guzman is out here in front of the facility demanding the release of two of her constituents (who are U.S. citizens), asking to speak with federal agents. No response from them so far. Shes putting on a respirator.
Now is the time to contact your employers and rally to protect vulnerable colleagues. The administration is demanding that any valid H1-B visa holders outside the U.S. (or their employers) pay $100,000 for them to reenter the country, as of Sunday. www.whitehouse.gov/presidential...
very funny to read this the same week as @codyjohnston.bsky.social and I recorded an episode about Ben Shapiro's newest book in which he moans about London having "fallen" to the left
Feds just fired a tremendous amount of pepper balls at Reverend David Black, a regular protester here. A number of them hit him in the face and head.

As Trump uses his rhetoric about "antifa" to justify massive crackdowns on everyone's freedom, reactionary pundit Chris Hedges has re-emerged. During the Occupy movement, Hedges helped the authorities to craft a narrative delegitimizing militant protesters. anarchistagency.com/a-response-t...
Immediate blocks for anyone I see on here posting BE PEACEFUL while people are hit with tear gas and shot with rubber bullets.
It's not going to work.
awesome that conservatives get to lie about being victims and generate enough death threats to shut down an entire store
www.abc10.com/article/news...
the department of homeland security released a statement claiming “over a hundred violent rioters surrounded” the broadview ice detention center this morning. what actually happened was ice/cbp tactical teams aggressively threw, dragged, & tear-gassed protesters. one agent literally drew his gun.
They just tear-gassed us. They tried to run us over in a van holding a peaceful protester. They shot us with pepper balls. They dragged another protester into the facility.

70+ worshippers at the Al-Safiya Mosque in El Fasher were killed in an RSF drone strike today, Friday, when Jumah services means mosques are full. The UAE, which backs the RSF despite it being accused of genocide, continues to face no scrutiny from its western security partners, including the US.
A lot of people ask me how I stay level headed with everything that’s happening like I didn’t grow up when Bush stole an election, failed to stop 9/11, launched two bullshit wars and Homeland Security, got caught doing straight up torture, and Katrina where Black people were abandoned & then hunted.
The Hankyoreh is now on here in English and Korean. They’re Liberal to Left in outlook. Would recommend them having read them since very early 2017 from their reporting on the Candlelight Revolution.
the hysteria has gone off the rails so far that the average american thinks 1 in 5 people are transgender. pure absolute insanity that is driving the current lavender scare
They are grabbing people off the streets, sending them to camps, and then deporting them to their Pentecostal allies in Ghana so they can be sent back to countries that are trying to kill them and everyone is arguing about Charlie Kirk. WHAT THE FUCK Moreover, ICE must be destroyed
They are straight up committing an ethnic cleansing in front of our fucking eyes and asking us are we going to just sit here talking about it or are we going to fucking stop them. Are we going to let them round up brown people and throw them in camps or are we humans Moreover, ICE must be destroyed
look at this shameless crybully propaganda bullshit
At the Broadview ICE "processing facility" outside Chicago. Earlier today, federal agents unleashed chemical weapons on protesters, elected officials, a local congressional candidate, and a local mayor. Defiant anti deportation activists remain. Another protest is planned for 7pm.
So basically RFK Jr’s antivax ACIP were unable to make any big changes to vaccine access because they were too incompetent. We should all take this as a win I guess…
So i misremembered the exact layout of this propaganda sculpture. Here’s as it existed, because the only surviving part of it is the little Mussolini with only torso and head left as found elsewhere online. www.researchgate.net/figure/Ferru...
When you see stories about how the northern border is to be militarized like the southern border, see it for what it really is: mass surveillance for millions who live nearby, attempts to geographical curb civil rights, and BILLIONS of dollars in contracts for right-wing surveillance tech CEOs.
ACIP members have voted to update the current pediatric and adult immunization schedules for FDA-approved COVID-19 vaccines. The vote was a unanimous yes.
BREAKING: Immigration court orders Mario Guevara can be deported immediately. This is a gross miscarriage of justice. If Mario is deported, that sets dangerous precedent -- targeting reporters for their coverage & free speech. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...
For no reason at all, I am thinking of that sculpture from Fascist Italy where Mussolini is naked and has a smaller Mussolini coming out of his head, with a description that says “The empire leaps from the mind of Il Duce!”
"[T]he arson-for-profit wave of the 1970s, a criminal plot that was the source of enormous windfalls for insurers and landlord co-conspirators[,] resulted in hundreds of deaths and the destruction of thousands of housing units." proteanmag.com/2025/09/07/i...
“Today on Jeopardy, which Fascist power is violating other country’s self determination?”

We are going to have to fight hard for a world in which human creativity still matters.
I wanted to make joke that metal heads and rock fans, that we’re all in a gang now, but this is so absurd and paranoid while also being “come up with any bullshit reason to imprison”, that i can’t.

Our colleagues at Municipal Adhesives are running a "MAJOR" 50% off sale on "ANTIFA" stickers. Bring the walls to life! From their announcement: "We are pleased to inform our many Super Soldiers that we are designating ANTIFA STICKERS & STENCILS ON A MAJOR DISCOUNT." www.etsy.com/shop/Municip...
"We will also be strongly recommending that those slapping ANTIFA stickers up in their neighborhood as a result of this discount donate the money they saved to The International Anti-Fascist Defense Fund at the highest dollar amount they are able. Thank you for your attention to this matter!"
House and Senate Democrats are fucking this up and making it easier for authoritarian fascism to destroy the United States
Holy moly. The current WNBA salaries are (accounting for inflation) still below the salaries of the ABL, a player-centric WBB league that preceded and, for a moment, competed with the WNBA.
This is an agent of the US federal government, armed for live-fire combat against a modern army, slamming a passive and nonviolent female candidate for the US Congress into asphalt. Then walking away without checking if she has injuries, with his identity concealed behind a black facemask.
i honestly think the level of energy these guys have about getting people to RSVP to a protest doesn’t make any kind of sense unless you take into account that most of the people saying “don’t RSVP“ are Black women and then you see they’re just dunking on Black women Then the energy makes sense
ILLINOIS — Trump’s Gestapo violently throws female congressional candidate @KatAbughazaleh to the ground to the ground
I think it’s a misstep to say the federal surge has ended. MPD’s control by the federal government has ended. Bowser said they would no longer provide info to ICE. But the feds are still here. Migrant neighbors are still being detained. The National Guard is still here.
Not enough people are paying attention to a major target for Brendan Carr and the Trump admin’s crackdown on free speech: social media. It’s under bipartisan attack, even though it’s a crucial forum for reaching the public and fighting back. spitfirenews.com/p/is-anyone-...

Literally this. Had a white man with a large following said it, nobody would have blinked. Had it been mark ruffalo or John Cusack, they'd be hailed as a strategic geniuses.
the thing that's blowing my mind about this is that point has been made, several times, to zero occasion on this site. it's been accepted wisdom for as long as i can remember so what's going on that people are suddenly freaking out about it now
What we're seeing in the "don't sign up for protests" discourse is what Paulo Freire described as the convert's failure to trust the knowledge of the oppressed. As the convert tries to stand in solidarity with the oppressed, they refuse to let go of a world where they were the authority by default.
We are living exactly what you describe. We are erased while the media portrays our erasure as if it were natural, as if it were merely a debate or a political disagreement.But the truth is that what is happening is a full scale genocide, 🔗 tinyurl.com/3sem5b4p

If your response to fascism disappearing people, invading the nations capital and other cities. the high court is ruling that racism is legal, and fascism is law,major news media are disappearing it’s talent for being rightly critical of the fascists is “wait to vote about it” your deeply unserious
Waiting for a hypothetical, that may never come is not the way you actually win against fascists. you deal with the hard realities of the moment and you work with those not with the fantasy in your head. Americans need to understand they are out of time.
It should be apparent now that the goalposts are being shifted as it becomes clear neoliberalism cannot cope with the weight of fascism, and we have moved now to the portion where there’s an attempt to normalize that living under fascism for a little bit is better than actually stopping this now.
These attempts to gaslight and claim being honest is doomerism or capitulating are nothing more than cope from people who are unwilling to accept the reality that democracy is not in effect and waiting only ensures it never gets out of the grave again.
He’s also not noting the reality that to beat the Nazis required the death of tens of millions of people in a total war across multiple continents and took years to achieve. There is no counter force like that in the world today and certainly wouldn’t be a decade from now.
If you are trying to tell people to calm down while at the same time saying it may be decades of fascist domination and mass murder… I don’t know what to tell you beyond touch grass and realize your privilege is showing.
The Nazis existed for 12 years Pinochet 17 Over a decade of modern technologically enhanced fascism is a death sentence for billions not counting those killed directly by the fascists in their quest for world domination.
It’s very interesting how upset white moderate men are getting about being told it’s dangerous to sign up for counter regime actions under fascism. It’s Even more interesting how some of them have decided that they need to discount all of it as fake news and hysteria in their minds.

Sharing because it's useful information but note how Indivisible didn't tell you how to cancel Disney+ when it was added to the BDS list, perhaps because they're not actually opposed to fascism and genocide
Oh, for fuck's. THIS IS NOT DIFFICULT. DO NOT PUT YOUR NAME ON A LIST IF YOU ARE THE KIND OF PERSON WHO THE GOVERNMENT WANTS LISTS OF. PUT YOUR NAME ON ALL THE LISTS IF YOU ARE THE KIND OF PERSON THEY DO NOT WANT TO HAVE TO PROSECUTE EN MASSE. FLOOD THE ZONE.
Additional reminder that tear gas will shred your reproductive system if you’ve got a uterus. Protect yourself, friends, or be prepared for a months-long bleed sesh that may or may not be permanently damaging (because we don’t actually know! Research remains thin!!!)
Yeah man, if you’re heading out to a protest these days, assume you are being surveilled and act accordingly. Images and video that you didn’t know were taken will end up in indictments, fusion center reports, and any other intelligence file they got
Good morning! I’m at the Broadview Detention Facility in Chicago, Illinois. Several dozen protesters are here protesting against the ramp up in federal deportation raids in the Chicago area. Things are testy already, several attempted arrests from DHS.
An ICE agent unholstered his gun at a protest this morning. Please don't let yourself become numb to this.
They're uhhhhh probably not going to do anything with that, but interesting if true
Thread
an agent on the roof of the broadview ice facility is filming the crowd of protesters below with a dslr. a protester joking asked, “does it shoot 4k?” and the agent nodded his head yes.
looks like some border patrol agents have joined up ice’s chicago field office special response team to rough up protesters outside the broadview ice facility.
