It has been pointed out to me that some extremist conservatives and transphobes have found my posts to be offensive because they felt I wanted them silenced for their opinions.

Two points.

1.) You're right.
2.) I am sorry about hurting your feelings, though. I had no idea that you could read.

Flights are cancelled but it's not Covid. Shortage of nurses and doctors but it's not Covid. All these people with suddenly worse than ever hay fever but it's not Covid. Your favorite musicians cancelled their tours but it's not Covid, not enough teachers but it's not Covid... #CovidIsNotOver #LongCOVID #COVIDisAirborne #travel #education #health

Remember, Capitalists hate your cat, because it will never grow up and be forced to work for minimum wage.

Which is more divisive?

Telling children about the time black churches were bombed in order to suppress their participation in the civil rights movement so that no one brings back that level of oppression?

Or making it illegal to tell children about that so that it becomes possible for things to be that bad again.

Context: things are only slightly less bad now.

Left out is that Mast is an Evangelical extremist and has couched all of this as a religious mission. I don’t understand why that’s being ignored. — Secret records: Government says Marine's adoption of Afghan orphan seen as abduction, must be undone apnews.com/article/afghan-war-

Oof. LockBit added Hillsborough County Public Schools in Florida to their leak site with a file list and samples. The countdown clock is 10 days, and LockBit claims to have 2 TB of files, and:

"Seems that HCPS do not care about their county's 270 000 students and 17 000 teachers data. We give them 10 days to consider and we will release all data to public after 3 day auction to sell it private."

Many people say "Seeing is Believing." Religion requires us to reverse those.

"The [NH Board of Education] approved PragerU's financial literacy 'Cash Course' for its Learn Everywhere program for half a credit. The course consists of 15 five-minute videos about financial literacy.

"According to its website, PragerU 'offers a free alternative to the dominant left-wing ideology in culture, media and education.'"

One way to know this doesn’t actually have anything to do with guns is because if it did the NRA would be screaming bloody murder about the Feds spending what surely has to be millions of dollars at this point to get a guy on petty ass carrying charges.

If Trump did declassify those documents using his magical powers, then he would be guilty of exactly what Republicans accused Hillary Clinton of in 2016: making sensitive information available to America's enemies through carelessness.

What did Republicans want to do about that?

Oh yeah.

They chanted "Lock her up" over and over and over, even after the investigation found that she did nothing wrong with those documents.

Auto workers are demanding a 40% raise to match the 40% pay increase CEOs of the Detroit automakers got over the past 4 years.

CEOs are calling this absurd, but they couldn't be more wrong.

THIS IS A COMPROMISE. Why? Because worker's real wages have fallen 30% over the past 20 years. They're foregoing 16 years of wage theft for 4 of equity, and consistent equity going forward. That's basic justice.

Pay workers. Unionize workers. Tax billionaires. Save our economy.
