Pronouns: WTF? Why is this a thing? No one cares about your fucking pronouns
ECOLOGICAL ARMAGEDDON!
Scientist returns to Puerto Rican #rainforest after 35 years to find 98% of ground #insects, 80% of canopy insects have vanished! The most likely culprit by far being #GlobalWarming:

Democrats & “liberals” praising FBI for investigating @realDonaldTrump for treason for publicly calling (as president!) for better relations with Russia, please remember FBI was used as Big Brother political police against Henry Wallace, JFK, MLK, McGovern & many others.
People I like & would be happy to vote for who have declared for President 2020 so far:
Tulsi Gabbard
Richard Ojeda (who I'm behind the learning curve on but now that I'm learning, he sounds really good)
It is estimated that fewer than 30,000 monarch butterflies will overwinter in California this year, compared to at least 4.5 million in the 1980s. https://t.co/sFUFFbl0pL
@mtracey Attacking anyone for their beliefs as a teen is idiotic and clearly bad faith. As a teen I thought homosexuality was wrong coz of religion/how I was raised & something was wrong w/me for not disliking gays; I know gays who thought something was wrong w/them as kids 4 same reason
Mr. President. Do you want to know what a real "national emergency" is? The scientists tell us that if we don't combat climate change aggressively, the severe damage done to our country and planet will be irreversible. Now that's a "crisis."
Feel-Bad Liberalism is a scam and has no capability to address any of the major problems in the US progressives and leftists agree need to be solved. It's a way for mediocre people with nothing of value to say to assert power and sell stuff.
@MaxBlumenthal@joerogan@TulsiGabbard Watched this when it came out; one of only about 3 times I ever sat through a whole two hour podcast, probably the best all-issues political discussion I've seen in years, if not ever. Highly recommended to anyone curious about #Tulsi2020 or simply anyone interested in politics
@JohnnyAkzam@TulsiGabbard I watched this at the time & was (mostly) very impressed. One of about 3 or 4 times I ever watched a whole two hour podcast. Great discussion!
We can be the generation that halts irreversible climate change by transitioning from fossil fuel to a clean energy economy. Protecting our planet, our air, & our water is non-negotiable. Let's be bold & embrace the goal of 100% renewable energy by 2035. https://t.co/YIs0sdtUJn
@Sasha_CA @some_feminist @TheDemocrats Yes, it's a case of well-meaning lefties swallowing the worst corporatist neoliberal propaganda coz it was couched in identity politics & "fairness"; this is a case where you have to say "yes, it's unfair, but there's no way to make it fair which doesn't make things worse 4 all"
@Sasha_CA @some_feminist @TheDemocrats This & the trans crazy (along w/the general "agree w/us on everything or you are evil" & the "all Islamists are peaceful & enlightened even tho all other religions are evil & bad" stuff are basically what props up conservatism and keeps the left from reigning asccendent.
@Sasha_CA @some_feminist @TheDemocrats Arguing usually gets you called racist, or ignorant, or even occasionally threats to punch you from brave twitter warriors who presumably are less pugilistic IRL.
"A welfare state simply cannot afford anything other than a restrictive immigration policy if welfare arrangements are to remain at a reasonable level."
Another reason predatory capitalists like Koch Brothers support open borders. The gov't programs they hate become unaffordable
