Charlie Kirk was a mediocre white man who spent his time pushing the narrative that Black people are inherently violent…only to be killed by a white man.
The literacy crisis isn’t just about people struggling to read words. It’s about losing the ability to understand context, infer meaning, question information, and form your own conclusions. And relying on AI to do all that thinking for us is only making the problem worse.
Stop calling people who do genuine things for you tricks. Language has been obscured to the point where y'all think sex worker lingo is appropriate in every context (Meanwhile not wanting to align yourself with sex work and demoninizing it lmao)
RIP Mike Brown. RIP Eric Garner. RIP Alton Sterling. RIP Sandra Bland. RIP Breonna Taylor. RIP George Floyd. RIP to all those murdered by agents of the state. RIP to those whose murders in this new age of technology inspired THE WORLD to demand systemic change. NEVER FORGET.
Pretty simple. The right is constantly inventing totally crazy scenarios of gotcha moments that won’t happen to create a sense of hysteria.
Here are the facts:
— A trans woman has never played in the WNBA. In 30 years.
— Trans women are barred from competing in women’s sports in the NCAA and the Olympics.
— 29 states have banned trans girls participation in women’s sports K-12.
— The Supreme Court ruled states can exclude trans girls from participating in women’s sports.
Y’all won. Y’all got it. So why is the right still crying and whining about an argument that is backed by law and policy at virtually every level?
Wait, I have an answer. They want to erase trans existence period and no amount of exclusion, degradation, or denigration will ever be good enough for them.
SO they create these dumb, illogical, stupid-ass scenarios because there actually isn’t enough there for them to make a salient point. It’s fear-mongering bullshit that is designed to create a hostile environment for trans people. It’s weak.
We really used to be ashamed of being seen as stupid, uninformed and dense. Now it’s being seen in a favorable way, with at worst a neutral reaction. We gotta fix that.
This is why barely anyone dances at clubs or gets really excited in public or really tries to express themselves other than online.
Some antisocial person with a smart phone is on standby, ready to capitalize on it for clout or a dollars of revenue sharing.
I am the stone that the builder refused
I am the visual, the inspiration
That made Lady sing the blues I'm the spark that makes your idea bright
The same spark that lights the dark
So that you can know your left from your right I am the ballot in your box, the bullet in the gun
The inner glow that lets you know to call your brother son
The story that just begun, the promise of what's to come
And I'ma remain a soldier 'til the war is won
