I owe >$30,000 in student loans for the audacity of going to a public university when my parents couldn’t afford to pay for my tuition. I don’t care if you work hard or hardly work— cancel all student debt!

The "Defense of Property" grants a generous social license in our society to visit unspeakable violence on the poor and marginalized. It's what militias operating in Kenosha are using to justify murder, and why the police will not protect you from their brutality.

.@SenKamalaHarris Why is the Senate considering giving the Pentagon $21 billion in the next bailout package while everyday workers are struggling to get by? Bailout people NOT the Pentagon and weapons manufacturers! #HealthcareNotWarfare

Now is the time for food service workers across L.A. to come together & fight for safer workplaces, fair pay, & an industry that recognizes the dignity of those who work in it.

Join us for a forum on the state of the LA food service industry, August 7th. https://t.co/ylu8s07yUU

[DSA-LA 🌹 @dsa_losangeles]

To create the real change in the food service industry, we need organized food service workers willing to collectively fight the boss for a more equitable workplace & the fruits of their labor. That is why the fight @augiesunion is waging is so important. https://t.co/VIriSN1wzr

[DSA-LA 🌹 @dsa_losangeles]

We must demand Congress extend federal unemployment benefits for the jobless in the U.S., but a real transformation of the food service industry will have to come from workers in the industry themselves. A statement from our Food Service Labor Circle: https://t.co/rEtaPGlFQz

"She said she was asked to perform duties not listed in her job description without additional compensation."

And now the millennial obsession comes full circle:

✅Memes
✅Rampant wage theft at your "dream job"
✅Collective action to get your racist boss fired

On #EarthDay2020 we can't forget that the Pentagon is one of the world's largest consumers of fossil fuels in the world.
Instead of giving them $740 billion a year, we should be investing in the kind of work that repairs our planet #WarisNotGreen https://t.co/T4IF3zyxlg

[Carley @CarleyTowne]

Did you know that just 1% of the 2019 military budget ($716 billion) would be enough to fund 128,879 green infrastructure jobs?

#DivestFromWar to invest in jobs, a livable future, health–life!! #EarthDay2020

The Pentagon is the single largest institutional consumer of fossil fuels in the world. If the Pentagon were a country, its fuel use alone would make it the 47th largest greenhouse gas emitter in the world. (2/10)

The wildfire in CA is closing in on the Reagan library, which is where he is buried. So the army corps of engineers is trying to dig up the coffins & corpse to move it to safety. This is the exact scenario all of punk rock historically has been an effort to summon.

This is the type of moral clarity and vision you can expect from a company with an appointed “Chief Equality Officer” - budgeting 30 seconds to reflect on how your product tears families apart.

Shame on @salesforce and their sham ethical positioning. #salesforcetour

[DSA-LA 🌹 @dsa_losangeles]

So we decided to visit @salesforce today and ask why they‘re supplying @DHSgov @CBP w/ technology to manage concentration camps.

We were met w/ scoffs and a large screen video of a dystopic 30 second countdown timer, symbolizing our democratic representation in the space.

[DSA-LA 🌹 @dsa_losangeles]

This morning, @salesforce hosted a showy corporate sales pitch at the LA Convention Center w/ Tony Prophet, their “Equality Officer”.

@salesforce is a core technology contractor for the concentration camps being run at the border by @customsborder @dhsgov.
