Something that has been made clear:

We need to stop saying “This is not who we are” in “America.”

Indeed, this is not who and what the United States should be, but denial won’t make the injustices and inhumane ideologies less so.

We can’t change without truth.

[Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC]

What if activists aren’t PR firms for politicians & their demands are bc police budgets are exploding, community resources are shrinking to bankroll it, & ppl brought this up for ages but it wasn’t until they said “defund” that comfortable people started paying attn to brutality

1/x Thread on immigration detention and family separation during the Obama years.

Trump may be awful, but our treatment of immigrant families has been horrendous for years, Democrats & Republicans can't erase their guilt by pretending Trump is responsible for America's crimes.

[Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC]

There are folks running around on TV blaming progressivism for Dem underperformance.

I was curious, so I decided to open the hood on struggling campaigns of candidates who are blaming progressives for their problems.

Almost all had awful execution on digital. DURING A PANDEMIC.

@KeepinItFresh @self_referent I hated it when the goombas stabbed Mario Mario in the movie

since nazi germany is trending bc someone suggested the US is as bad if not worse than it, here's a reminder that the nazis studied and were inspired by US jim crow laws, but even they thought it was too harsh

In no particular order, but the Bush years

[A. Aron @ravingponies]

The only way to grow is to take a honest, hard look at why we got to where we are now. No politician should be above criticism. To pretend like the Obama admin didn’t factor into the current military crackdown, kids in cages, and vast inequality is being willfully dishonest.

REPUBLICANS: i need an assault rifle in case the government ever tries to take away my rights

REPUBLICANS: thank you so much!!!! love you guys!!!!!!

[Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC]

Over 100,000 Americans are dead and Congress won’t extend Medicare to the unemployed bc it’s too busy protecting a corporate system that makes pandemics insanely profitable for Wall St.

This is what capitalist healthcare looks like, & it’s wrong. People shouldn’t die for profit.
