John Pavlovitz @johnpavlovitz

The most sobering part about becoming 1930’s Germany is realizing that no one is going to come here and liberate those being brutalized. If this historically inhumane regime is going to be overthrown, We The American People are going to have to do it.

Short thread 🧵

Want to skip the official state of the union? (which will be full of lies 🙄)

Oregon senators Wyden & Merkley will "co-host a live on-line town hall that day with People’s Town Hall to offer all Oregonians the opportunity to ask questions as well as share their ideas and viewpoints."

Feb. 24, 2:30 PM Pacific

“Sitting through Donald Trump’s unhinged ramblings about his unconstitutional schemes does nothing to help Oregonians justifiably concerned about his attacks on the economy and the law as well as his desperate diversions from the Epstein investigation,” Wyden said. “Rather than hearing a so-called State of the Union from a self-absorbed liar, I’ll hear the truth from my fellow Oregonians in the best state of the union.”

“After a year in office, Trump has made America poorer and sicker,” said Merkley. “We know Trump says one thing but then does another. He ran for president promising to help working people, but in office he’s only helped the rich and powerful. Trump is putting up red tape for families and rolling out the red carpet for billionaires. Every day of the week, I’ll choose to boycott the wannabe dictator and connect with Oregonians.”

My daughter and granddaughter are still at the #NoKings #Protest in sunny #LasVegas. It's currently 4:35 PM PST. She said there are still a whole lot of "old" people. My daughter is 42 😂

Erin even dated and labeled her sign with our city to tell where she is 😂

#USPOL #Antifa #Resist

This is a photo of my 15 year old granddaughter at the No Kings protest in Las Vegas, Nevada. She's holding the sign she made that says - My Future is in the hands of a felon. There's a picture of a crown with an X through it. In the background are dozens of people participating with different signs and costumes.

The Atlantic just sent out this article, speculating why the stock market is behaving the way it is. I may be wrong, but it seems like NOW is the time for a General Strike. Perhaps hand in hand with a mass withdrawal from "passive investors" like Vanguard, the American people can reign in this runaway machine.

"As the stock market soars ever higher, the theories of why it rises have suffered the opposite fate. One by one, every favored explanation of what could be going on has been undermined by world events. The uncomfortable fact about the historic stock-market run is that no one really knows why it’s happening—or what could bring it to an end."

"The explosion of passive funds over the past 15 years could explain why the market has become less sensitive to real-world downturns, more likely to keep going up no matter what, and dominated by a handful of giant companies. Or that theory could end up being disproved by unforeseen events. It wouldn’t be the first."

In a vibrant, retro-futuristic cartoon style, a friendly middle-aged man with short sandy hair and glasses stands heroically in the center, wearing a pink gingham shirt and a blue lanyard. He holds a glowing orange RSS feed torch high, leading a diverse group of community members holding their own digital panels. In the background, giant "ALGORITHM" robots spew dark social media icons, while floating screens display Mastodon, Bluesky, and RSS logos. The scene is set in a neon space-age city with flying cars and "OPEN WEB" banners under a glowing title that reads, "RECLAIMING OUR NEWS FEEDS."

This is what a #WitchHunt actually looks like

Exclusive: US “counterterror” officials plan #antifa summit, sources say

The #Trump admin is organizing an international summit focused on countering the #LeftWing movement antifa & other groups, 3 sources familiar with the matter said, an effort that highlights the shift in the US government's counterterrorism priorities over the past year.

I'm noticing how hard it is for people to enjoy things that are obviously enjoyable nowadays.

Part of resistance is allowing yourself joy.

Part of a better future is celebrating science and when humans do big things together. We can't do it any other way.

Nothing is perfect. Enjoy the good.

It was a rug pull but to see the people “on my side” reveal they have no moral character over the years has been really hard - not just this. But also this. well in summation suck my dick

Hi I’m Adam. I taught film and culture at a small college, and now clean and maintain the facilities at Centre des Arts Visuels, in Westmount.

Music/audio and interactive sculpture are my creative practices.

I’m straight, but not narrow. Until women, the differently-abled, BIPOC, LGBTQ+, Trans Folx & Worker’s rights are universally protected, no human is really free.

If voting was useless they would not be trying to redistrict to supress the vote!

BOOK TO READ

"A Merry Life and A Short One" is my collection of writings about pirates as examples of anarchists. It consequently sets out to discuss and describe both pirates and anarchy for the general reader in order to make relevant connections between them. I think its the best thing I have ever written but that's probably up to the reader to decide. Recommended for anyone who wants to think about pirates or anarchy and their consequences or how to fight back against oppressive politics.
