"you don't owe anyone anything" You are a tar pit. Speak for yourself. I personally owe the cafe employees my dishes put away and my friends a listening ear and small scared insects a cup and a gentle trip outside. Hyperindividualism is a rancid infection borne of capitalism and willfully misinterpreted therapyspeak and I will defy it by continuing to be kind regardless of whether or not it benefits me personally

I’m just saying if Daniel Radcliffe, the literal protagonist of the Harry Potter franchise since the age of ten years old, was able to disavow JK Rowling and move on from the HP universe then actually what the fuck is anyone else’s excuse. There is no one else on the planet who can say their entire childhood was HP more than that guy and he still cared about trans people more than the average tumblr user who says “we’re protesting by making all her characters queer and trans!!” like you can do better. You should do better.

For the record that is HC, (Hexachloroethane-based munitions smoke)

The US Military largely stopped using it in warfare due to it’s highly toxic, carcinogenic, and lethal effects.

They’re using it on peaceful protesters.

Get informed, get angry, stay safe.

ICE is already being pushed out by massive numbers of extremely pissed off Citizens who are sick of watching their illegal & abhorrent actions.

The time is Now.

i just don’t think we need to cede this ground and allow libs to portray themselves as inherently pro-lgbt and progressive when some of the most crushing rollbacks of trans rights are happening in so-called labour-led dotbs like the uk and even fairly socially conservatives socialist states like china are following people-first principles when it comes to lgbt rights (let alone cuba, a global leader in this domain)

They removed bisexuals from the stonewall monument website. How long until the website is just “stonewall is something that happened. I guess” because they cut every group out.

The greatest victory neoliberalism ever won was to create several generations of the left in the imperial core who have completely abdicated their responsibility to understand and analyze the contemporary state of capitalism because they've convinced themselves that economics is nothing but a capitalist ideological project

“The U.S. military, unlike any other, maintains a doctrine of global power projection: that it should have the ability, through roughly 800 overseas military bases, to intervene with deadly force absolutely anywhere on the planet. In a way, though, land forces are secondary; at least since World War II, the key to U.S. military doctrine has always been a reliance on air power. The United States has fought no war in which it did not control the skies, and it has relied on aerial bombardment far more systematically than any other military-in its recent occupation of Iraq, for instance, even going so far as to bomb residential neighborhoods of cities ostensibly under its own control. The essence of U.S. military predominance in the world is, ultimately, the fact that it can, at will, drop bombs, with only a few hours’ notice, at absolutely any point on the surface of the planet. No other government has ever had anything remotely like this sort of capability. In fact, a case could well be made that it is this very power that holds the entire world monetary system, organized around the dollar, together.”

Roughly 6 months in and the US is already at the ‘full blown concentration camps’ stage.
