Benefits of slavery to enslaved people:

ZERO.

[David Austin Walsh @DavidAstinWalsh]

*sips coffee*

This is the sort of thing that every enslaved persons tour I have ever been on mentions, along with the whole “these skills were deployed almost exclusively for the economic benefit of slaveowners and led to class stratification among the enslaved” thing.

[Robert Windrem @rwindrem]

Black people weren’t “taught” skills that “benefited” them during slavery. They were ordered under threat of violence, even death, to perform tasks that benefited only their owners.

@BamaStephen I'm sure he will win many votes from Klan members.

No one talks about how the survivors of Auschwitz mastered a low-calorie diet.

It’s no accident that Florida’s new Black history standards claim Black people benefited from slavery

DeSantis appointed Kim Daniels to the task force.

In 08, Daniels said: “I thank god for slavery.. if it wasn’t for slavery, I might be somewhere in Africa, worshipping a tree.”

[Rick Wilson @TheRickWilson]

If you want to argue the “Acktuallllly slavery wasn’t all bad” point, may I politely invite you to go fuck yourself for all eternity?

The DeSantis shitbird scamfluencers are low travelers who will defend this to the end and deserve shame and mockery.

[Jemele Hill @jemelehill]

DeSantis will probably claim next that slaves received 401K.

Why is it getting so much harder to find a bulk-billed doctor?

@cdwjoyce explains the crisis our healthcare system is in, and what we need to do to fix it.

[Graham Perrett @GrahamPerrettMP]

Are you planning to vote "No" because you don't like the idea of an entity giving advice to the Federal Parliament? If so, here is a list of some entities that do exactly this right now, that you will also have to abolish:
ABARES - Australian Bureau of Agricultural & Resource

[Elie Mystal @ElieNYC]

I told you so.

[Jeremy Kaplowitz @jeremysmiles]

when movies get deleted for tax reasons, they should legally become public domain. people should be allowed to upload it anywhere they want. that's the tradeoff you make if you wanna delete your own movie released this year for a few extra bucks, and i think it's fair

***BREAKING NEWS***

We have huge breaking news today, witches.

Due to unrelenting pressure and activism from thousands of witches in past weeks, the Donald Trump Jnr. Australian Tour (meant to kick off in Sydney this coming Sunday night) has been “postponed”.

Nigel Farage and Alex Antic were to have been guests of Trump Jnr. on this tour.

Despite what the pic below says, we believe the event won’t now take place at all, and all ticket holders will be quietly refunded. We believe this because the other two cities Trump Jnr. was meant to speak (Melbourne and Brisbane) have also had event information quietly removed from sites in the past few days.

This “postponement” follows Rupert Murdoch’s papers and TV channels madly promoting the event in recent weeks, possibly to try to overcome the poor ticket sales we believe also resulted from our #MFWBoycott and all the associated bad publicity coming from our #DumpTrumpAU campaign.

It’s a fucking huge win to get this bastard’s tour cancelled, witches. And it’s a huge testament to the power of witches and the power of a determined collective to refuse to bow to the wishes of the pricks who think they still have power over us and over the countries where the media who own their whiny arses operate.

We’re so proud of every single witch who took the time to contact @AwareSuper about this, to remove their super from this shitfucked company and to relay their disgust to the Sydney venue to protest this shameful tour.

Witches fucking rock.

And boycotting shitheads is fun.

Let’s do it again, and again … and again.

JUST NOW: @brotherjones_ tried to add an amendment to a bill making Juneteenth a state holiday — the amendment would’ve delete our day celebrating the KKK’s first Grand Wizard — but it was ruled out of order by the Speaker, who says it was off topic.

A computer forensics expert from Nevada concluded that Lindell’s data, which he claimed offered evidence of fraud in the 2020 election, didn't actually do that. https://t.co/aDJKCKUAkw
