Actually, I'm joy-scrolling. It's just that there are 20 to 30 dooms between each glimpse of a better world.

we need to be channeling malatesta and the other italian anarchists who fought a cholera outbreak so well that the government tried to give him an award (he refused)

last week, all charges were dropped - RIGHT before trial was set to start - against 8 people who protested against Cop City at a construction site 2 years ago. they were jailed for nearly a week after arrest, and have obviously been impacted by the charges over the last 2 years.

I see this a lot 🤢 I made a thread once about how being autistic does often lead to strong conviction, *but they aren't always good fuckin values*!!! And that's the key thing. It's white people who insist *they're* intrinsically good, as if they don't have to do any work at all.

[Moira Donegan @MoiraDonegan]

A sign of the antifeminist backlash is liberals and leftists accepting right wing framing on gender issues. More writers and intellectuals, I notice, have begun to treat “misandry” and “negative male stereotyping” as legitimate concerns, drawing a false equivalence with misogyny.

Guys I cannot stress this enough: no one is being “gaslit” or dupe or mislead. The thing where Blinken acts bumfuzzled every time Israel does a war crime is fake. It’s called plausible deniability. The WH is 100% in on everything, the Lucy and the Football routine is entirely PR

More campaign trail news: Portland Auditor's Office says no violations by Carmen Rubio's campaign after 2 different election-related complaints/investigations. The complaint referenced here alleged Portland For All worked w/Rubio on an endorsement video w/o proper disclosure.

[Portland Mercury 🗞 @portlandmercury]

Oh, look... an exhaustive time line of all the scandals. blunders, and power plays of mayoral candidate and commissioner Rene Gonzalez. (And just in time for election season!) A must-read before casting your vote. 👀

[Damon Motz-Storey @DamonMotzStorey]

Rene Gonzalez, Mingus Mapps, and Dan Ryan have no plan for Portland. These men posture and bluster endlessly but all they ever do is complain, roll back our progress, and point blame at their colleagues instead of owning up and doing the hard work of real, meaningful change.

[Laura Wadlin @explauratory]

when @wweek said they wouldn't endorse @TeacherTiff4PDX because she "couldn't list a single regret" about the teachers strike last year... this is how she responded.

this is why I support her and why she's one of only two DSA-endorsed candidates in the race.

[Cory Doctorow NO LONGER ON TWIT TER @doctorow]

One of the most brazen lies of Big Tech is that people *like* commercial surveillance, a fact you can verify for yourself by simply observing how many people end up using products that spy on them. If they didn't like spying, they wouldn't opt into being spied on.
