I like cats He/Him If you do not support the universality of human rights, you're a monster. If you support governments that commit genocide, you're a monster. Far too many individuals are unable to rise above those VERY low bars.

If you cannot donate yourself, spread this link as far and wide as you can: chuffed.org/project/1132... This is the best way I know to help as many people in Gaza as possible. The money gets to where it will do the most good for the largest number.

Her words still ring true, as we are *still* fighting for basic rights for ALL. “Asking you to give me equal rights, implies that they are yours to give. Instead, I must demand that you stop trying to deny me the rights all people deserve.” - Elizabeth Peratrovich, Alaskan Civil Rights Activist.

Elizabeth Jean Wanamaker Peratrovich (1911-1958) a member of the Tlingit Nation, was a key figure in the passing of the country's first anti-discrimination law, the Anti-Discrimination Act of 1945, which prohibited discrimination based on race in Alaska. She also served as the Grand President of the Alaska Native Sisterhood. The fight for passage of the bill was ugly and it was extremely racist. State Senator Allen Shattuck argued that the measure would “aggravate rather than allay” racial tensions. During the Senate debate on February 5, 1945, Shattuck said, “Who are these people, barely out of savagery, who want to associate with us whites with 5,000 years of recorded civilization behind us?” Peratrovich rose from her seat in the back, took the podium and replied, “I would not have expected that I, who am barely out of savagery, would have to remind the gentlemen with 5,000 years of recorded civilization behind them of our Bill of Rights.” After giving examples of discrimination that she and her family and friends had endured over the years, she continued, “You as legislators, can assert to the world that you recognize the evil of the present situation and speak your intent to help us overcome discrimination.” She also said, “Asking you to give me equal rights, implies that they are yours to give. Instead, I must demand that you stop trying to deny me the rights all people deserve.” Alaska Governor Ernest Gruening, wrote in his autobiography that after Pertrovich’s speech, the gallery broke out in a “wild burst of applause.” The 1945 Anti-Discrimination Act was passed, by 11 votes to 5. This legislation entitled all Alaskans to “full and equal enjoyment” of public establishments, and banned discriminatory signs based on race. This bill, which was passed 14 years before Alaska became a state, and 19 years before the federal Civil Rights Act was passed in 1964, was the first antidiscrimination act in the United States.

Ghislaine Maxwell's deposition was not under oath. She was not video taped, which is very unusual for a deposition. And there are many cuts where they stopped the audio tapes so lawyers could confer with her off-the-record. None of that stuff is the way you do a deposition.

Her Karen origin story has begun though. She will later say she was a victim of that teacher. Her white mother and father will coddle her. Racism continues. Conservatives really have nothing to worry about. We are very far from ever being woke.

The classroom conservatives think we would all have. But this classroom is a rarity. Hell, maybe it should be this. Maybe we should be teaching the youth what privilege actually is, who has it and why we should fight for equality for all. It will never be painless. But learning isn’t easy.

Whenever I see "PROUD LIBERAL" in someone's bio I instantly (and correctly) assume they really mean "NOISE COMPLAINT ENTHUSIAST"

when a leftist says to a liberal, "you're just like MAGA" what they mean is "you blindly support evil politicians who harm vulnerable groups for their own personal gain" when a liberal says to a leftist, "you're just like MAGA" what they mean is "you were rude to me on the internet"

the fatal flaw with the Bluesky is dying proposition is that it ignores the broader truth that I am also dying, as are you, and everybody you know. By dying Bluesky lets us know that it’s one of us, that it shares in our beauty and our pain. Grow or die? No, there is no “or.” Bluesky understands

Happy Labor Day to all who celebrate, and a miserable Labor Day to those who don't, because people who hate labor don't deserve nice things.

He’s up for re-election in 2028. This demands a primary challenge. Surrendering on this bullshit narrative that COVID mitigation went too far is utterly disqualifying.

Oh nothing, just the actual Prime Minister telling people they’re entirely correct to drive asylum seekers out of their communities

From BBC news website: I 'completely get' concern over asylum hotels - Starmer Starmer is asked how he would feel if a hotel housing asylum seekers was at the end of his street.
