Doing the same thing over and over again expecting different results may not be the correct definition of insanity, but it is the definition of American #protest culture. You can’t defend someone if you refuse to actually defend. Fighting for what’s right is just that; a fight.
If there’s one lesson we should have learned over the past two decades, it’s no amount of playing by the rules will protect you from being portrayed and punished as a #anarchist.
Why does #youtube keep recommending me drama? I just want to watch cute #animation works, and pick up tips for my own #art. I really don't need some guy with a backwards hat and a beehive on their neck telling me how every creative on youtube is awful.
Anyone who advocates voting against #democrats over their treatment of #palestine is either incredibly stupid, or wishes nothing but harm for the Palestinian people.
We are dealing with a trolley problem, but instead of a lever, you are given an accelerator. The ones telling you to crank it up should not be trusted.
To think Iran’s plan of straining Israel’s relationships with the west could have been thwarted had Israel chose to practice restraint and not murder civilians.
A proper federal investigation into the murder of Nex Benedict
The removal of the superintendent who fomented an atmosphere that led to the death of Nex Benedict
A guarantee from president Joe Biden that if he's reelected, he will prioritize our safety, and put an end to the anti-trans legislation being passed around the country. The same legislation that led to Benedict's death.
(🧵1)
Nex's murderers walk free. Nex's community remains silent.
Why aren't you fucking mad? If the murder of a #trans child isn't enough to drive you mad, then how about the school, police, and DA conspiring together to protect the murderers? If that isn't enough to make you at least march in the streets, then I'm convinced the moment will never come.
We're pathetic. I fucking hate our silence. I fucking hate this.
Word to the wise: Never play a game you love with a #nerd. They will have optimized the game to the point that all of your favorite characters and strategies are complete garbage, and the only way to win is to break your thumbs on the controller, or prevent your opponent from playing at all. Fun was never an option.
Community leaders, organizers, activists, what are we doing for this month? Next month? Beyond that? Clearly justice hasn’t been served for Nex Benedict, WHICH MEANS OUR WORK ISN’T OVER!
I’m done having a wake, a cry, and another empty week, knowing each death will never be the one that pushes us over the edge. How many trans people have to die until we even begin to fight?
