1am hot take but i’d rather be friends w someone who’s less radical politically but is trying to better themselves and be a good person than a commie who exists only to be a vindictive nihilist and make others miserable . many people on this app need to hear this
emerson university allowing boston pd to brutalize its student tonight. throwing peaceful protestors to the ground. dragging unarmed individuals along the pavement. arresting legal observers. all this over a “tent ordinance.”
pure institutional cowardice. SHAME ON EMERSON & BPD.
absolutely nothing is funnier to me than the fact that queer eye dedicates about five minutes of each episode to antoni cutting an avocado and around 15-20 seconds to bobby literally building a house
deeply shameful. northeastern only cares about pr — admission tours and grad photos. not about being complicit in a genocide. not about protecting their students’ rights to free speech. not about policy brutality on campus.

i very much enjoy the fact that he thinks this song and women being treated as independent human beings are two diametrically opposed concepts
@briantylercohen
im so deeply confused about this......even if we're talking about late-term abortions WHERE DOES THIS RHETORIC ABOUT "EXECUTING LIVING BABIES" EMERGE FROM???? i know his base doesn't care about facts or logic but this is absolutely unbelievable
genuinely obsessed with jeremy strong's unhinged new yorker profile. the things i would do to sit down with him for an hour. psychologists will be analyzing these quotes for decades.
y’all realize that california being “blue” doesn’t make it progressive, right? the state with some of the wealthiest areas and corporations in the world does not want meaningful systemic change
nothing like being in a huge crowd of people at pride running and screaming because everyone thought there was an active shooter and your first thought being “i’m surprised this didn’t happen sooner”
this statement from northeastern hillel regarding angela davis is disgusting. davis passionately upholds a legacy of black and jewish solidarity. she never conflates the israeli government & jewish people. she’s more dedicated to ending antisemitism than any zionist philo-semite.

this is awful. i’m so sorry you and every trans/nb extra were exploited for such a gross purpose. i really hope you get some sort of compensation or something.
@troyesivan
hey so.....let's talk about kim real quick. i totally get that this probably wasn't your decision. but she went on record in numerous different interviews supporting dr. luke and invalidating kesha's struggles. i'm sure you don't agree with that.
What a relief. My son just hugged me and said “ mommy now that trump is out we get to acknowledge that a biden presidency will not improve the material conditions of bipoc. we must organize in our communities. we only have each other.” Tears of joy and tears of sadness.
insane statement from michelle wu using the rhetoric of “public health and safety” to justify the violent arrest of 100+ students using an ordinance she approved to take away unhoused individuals’ access to basic shelter. WHOSE public health and safety michelle????
Mayor Michelle Wu and Police Commissioner Michael Cox made the call to remove the pro-Palestinian tent encampment at Emerson College together, the mayor’s office said amid pushback on the removal of tents and the arrests of more than 100 protestors.
aoc, ilhan omar, ayanna pressley, and rashida tlaib regularly get attacked and have their lives threatened by racists and white supremacists. but yeah....crying because a political dynasty is being criticized.....sure
please don’t let this win make you complacent! under biden, bipoc individuals will continue to suffer and american imperialism will continue to wreak havoc on the world. we must go beyond the electoral system to achieve meaningful change.
@jonnysun
1.) the fact that society celebrates and idolizes/ fetishizes struggle and makes us think that “i’m suffering so i must be doing something right. the stuff i’m making isn’t gonna be good unless i went through hell to get there.” -jonny
truly don’t think anyone understands just how blessed i feel to have all this
