my loved ones don't have time for advocacy; they need our action and our protection
TasiAF (@tasiaf.bsky.social) reply parent
imo, our commitment to our loved ones is a-game enough. we have been waiting for the dems to show our a-game. they haven't. many of our reps pretend our pres hasn't declared literal war on our cities. lots of us know what to do, we just need to fucking do it w/out waiting for permission
TasiAF (@tasiaf.bsky.social) reply parent
i will never understand why anyone who cares about people doesn't understand how all of us are linked; oppression of one of us is oppression of all of us and until all of us are free, none of us are. i think there is a famous quote abt that....

i am a feral genx yt woman who was raised in an abusive military home, was abused by people i knew and by strangers. i don't have children, my car has removable seats and can be rinsed out easily. i am fucking furious and have zero to lose fighting fascism. i don't think i am the only one
TasiAF (@tasiaf.bsky.social) reply parent
The intimidation these women have experienced makes a few lil shitty planes seriously manageable, would be my guess. If I could confront my abusers w other ones, intimidation would be zero

they have already thrown the first, the 2nd, the 3rd..... they are literally kidnapping people during all hrs of the day, literally targeting our most vulnerable torturing them. i think our most vulnerable are worth us stepping up and protecting them but i that's just me i guess

anyone who thinks fascists will finally see reason w peace love and flowers doesn't understand shit about fighting fascism. violence will be necessary to get us out of this mess. every right we have in this country came from fighting and it's is vital to remember that fact

Illinois Gov. Pritzker ahead of Trump National Guard deployment: "To Chicagoans... Look out for your communities and your neighbours. Know your rights. Film things that you see happening... Authoritarians thrive on your silence. Be loud for America."

Hello everyone! I am working on a story for The Guardian about how Chicagoans are preparing for the possible arrival of federal troops, following President Trump's statements on the matter. Right now, I'm looking for residents, community organizers, business owners, and other folks to talk to!

Impound ICE's funding and redirect the money toward mass refugee resettlement. Cut off federal funding to states with draconian abortion laws and use the money to build reproductive health clinics in those states instead. End oil and gas subsidies then funnel the money to green energy projects.

Other things the next Democratic president should claim a prerogative to do unilaterally: •establish Medicare for All •forgive all student loans •legalize weed •mandate nationwide non-partisan redistricting It's an emergency! And he's the duly elected commander-in-chief! That's how this works now.
Mark Joseph Stern (@mjsdc.bsky.social) reposted
The next Democratic president should declare that the National Emergencies Act and Article II of the Constitution allow him to: •admit D.C. and Puerto Rico as states •abolish ICE •grant citizenship to any immigrant •disband the 5th Circuit •expand the Supreme Court Seriously: Why the hell not?

I’ve had this saved for about a month. Most places have some kind of group to act quickly for people kidnapped by ICE. Find your local group, save their number, if you see someone being arrested try to get the person’s name.
