It’s been deeply troubling to witness racism in the very spaces we should be freeing folks with the most abandon- education & Advocacy. But it’s also an important reminder that ‘the work’ has to look like we want it to, not like the very systems we’re trying to dismantle.

Stories like this always give me the urge to remind people that Florida quietly passed legislation that pays cops $10-$20K per child that they *adopt* out of the state’s welfare system. Many of these children aren’t actually orphans.
This says a lot about the state of America, that White people continue to exploit Black children in this way. nitter.cf/grindfacetv/status/180…

This is deliberate. They want to kill public education. They want a future where wealthy children are educated and the rest go straight into the workforce.

Here’s what is going to happen. As more people speak out against AIPAC’s record election spending, the establishment will call us antisemitic.
So we want to be clear: rejecting a pro-war lobby aligned with insurrectionists is about safety for everyone, including Jews.

This a disgusting, racist and shameful statement. The Klan are murderous vile people who lynched and killed Black and Jewish people with impunity. Lumping the idea of any protester wearing a Keffiyeh with the Klan is dangerous and divisive. There needs to be an apology.

Official DNC spokesperson here comparing Jamaal Bowman, a black man to the Nazis from Charlottesville… a glance at how democrats truly feel about black people.

Let’s be clear: If you are pushing for a law that excludes disabled people from society, and increases harassment of Asian people, and profiling of Black and Brown people, you are not a “civil rights” group.

New York Times wrote an article calling a protest “antisemitic” because it was outside a synagogue and was “intimidating Jewish congregants.” The paper omitted that the location was being protested because it was hosting a mega-event on the sale of Palestinian land.

READ: 50+ orgs are calling on City Council to step up the fight against @NYCMayor & use additional powers to stop his budget cuts. If the Mayor refuses to reverse his cuts, @NYCCouncil MUST deliver for working families & pass a #PeoplesBudget #CareNotCuts: drive.google.com/file/d/1xA2…

I think this will make a lot of people stay home. Democrats like to attack young people and claim we don’t vote… but we do and we pay attention and we do not like what we are seeing. Democrats joined with MAGA, celebrating genocide, celebrating kicking out minority progressives.

listening to that story of that firefighter admitting he would ignore the screams of black ppl in burning places up until one time he went into one to PRETEND to save a baby and didn't and made eye contact with it as it died and that's when he decided to stop has ruined me

What the fuck.
NY Governor Hochul is not only banning masks, she is ending sick leave for COVID. Shame. hellgatenyc.com/governor-hoc…
ALT Governor Hochul Abruptly Ends COVID Sick Leave for NY State Employees Statewide, the number of recorded COVID cases has increased five-fold since April, though they are still below levels reached this past winter.

So many Democrats are comfortable just being open racists when it comes to Palestine.

There is a lot of talk of “Project 2025”, but AIPAC’s $20M investment in a racist candidate proves our democracy is already failing, and the dems are doing absolutely nothing to stop it.

As a Jewish organization committed to disability justice, civil liberties and the right to protest, we are appalled by the New York State mask ban proposed today.

Democrats letting AIPAC buy Jamaal Bowman’s seat is just one example of how this party is deeply unserious in its commitment to Black people, marginalized people, young people, and progressives.
They’d rather burn the house down than let it move to the left.

One of the first House Democrats to come out for a ceasefire last year... is defeated. Replaced by a new House Democrat, backed by AIPAC, who deploys racist dogwhistles and refuses to criticize Benjamin Netanyahu.
Congress just got worse than it already is.

“Someone assaulted [our reporter] in front of police. They threatened to come to her home, to rape & behead her…[Another reporter] was punched in the head during a gang assault.
By Monday, the President, Governor of CA, & Mayor of LA all lied to the world about what had happened.”

It should be concerning for every New Yorker that Mayor Eric Adams is openly admitting that he thinks the police overtime budget should eat all the funds for parks, social services, etc. And under his mayoralty, that is indeed what’s happening. #CareNotCuts
