yet another day of trendslop, but we’re deeply rooted in the radical american democratic tradition. in a past life i was a dorrite.
at the doctor’s office and they’re doing a checkup like normal and the nurse looks at me, sees how skinny i am, and SWITCHES THE BLOOD PRESSURE ARMBAND TO THE CHILD SIZE ;_;
i’m being MOCKED
Invasion at the House of Horrors retweeted
I think the arguments from both sides here miss the point
The movement was unpopular, the act was popular, but the implementation of said act was so massively unpopular that the next time a non-southern Democrat wins the president is 2008
the us has returned to one of its premier cold war roles: a haven for deposed despots and authoritarian aspirants worldwide
BOLSONARO’S ON THE RUN
he escaped to argentina on foot and tried to flee to the u.s. in a private plane. like all enemies of the people, he will end up in the lulag
🚨 #ALERTA | Medios argentinos señalan que el avión privado en el que Flávio Bolsonaro habría intentado viajar a Estados Unidos permanece en la pista de Puerto Iguazú y no pudo despegar a las 2 de la madrugada. Por el momento, se desconoce el paradero del senador brasileño.
it is beyond ridiculous that mississippi democrats put up incredible levels of political talent and are completely locked out of ever winning anything because mississippi whites are still upset about losing segregation
.@scott_colom chatted with folks in line for the Trump rally because Scott is running to represent ALL Mississippians
if you are like me, a black trans woman, what are you even supposed to do when so many other black people understand nothing about transness at all
this is one of my least favourite braindead talking points that centrists on here have latched onto. being trans isn’t the same calculus as black people made working with LBJ because he was passing civil rights bills and turek wants to take away the healthcare we already have
Replying to @eupraxianroses @SenatorLuma
LBJ worked with avowed racists and was slinging slurs every day and he passed the Civil & Voting Rights acts.
Sometimes, you gotta talk a little differently than you’ll act.
turek is not every democrat, which it is WHY it is so important to form an impassable wall against his idea to restrict trans healthcare so that he does not BECOME every democrat. there’s room to debate how feasible the pace of progress can be. there isn’t to go backwards.
a really annoying thing about matt yglesias is that he has zero historical knowledge, so he pretends that this is a new development instead of one that’s literally as old as modern democracy itself. read a book!
now that lula’s pulled off the greatest comeback in brazilian history, can he stop bolsonaro and his thugs from overturning the election and save the country one more time
what a fucking titan. only person to ever come back to win the second round in brazil. the power of locking the fuck in
