When somebody poisons a conversation with stolen, contrary rhetoric, saying reparations or affirmative action are "racist," banning abortion is "feminism," terfing is "protecting women," or that scabs "are workers," a good way to handle it is to tell them to fuck off.

At this point a ceasefire literally equals standing against the intentional starving of helpless children. Israel is very openly using starvation as a weapon. Imagine being the sort of person who stands for continuing to deny food to children.

Thread: I work in an arcane field where the job requires specific technical knowledge, built on a ladder of understanding and breakthroughs going back over 100 years. It's not immunology but it's not nothing.

Every Christmas my wife & I give each other cars and SUVs. Every single Christmas. It’s our tradition & we love it. Got an account with the huge bow store. Just the best to watch your person’s eyes light up seeing a brand new vehicle in the driveway. We will do this until death

.@laurenboebert you have played a major role in elevating anti-LGBT+ hate rhetoric and anti-trans lies while spending your time in Congress blocking even the most common sense gun safety laws. You don’t get to “thoughts and prayers” your way out of this. Look inward and change.
The news out of Colorado Springs is absolutely awful. This morning the victims & their families are in my prayers. This lawless violence needs to end and end quickly.

CNN projects that Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz (D) has defeated Scott Jensen (R), who refused to acknowledge the legitimacy of the 2020 election results and who baselessly suggested that the state's Democratic elections chief should be imprisoned.

Journalist and former Texas Monthly editor Christopher Hooks @cd_hooks has had his Twitter account restricted after posting this tweet about @elonmusk Elon Musk (the retweet function is disabled for the tweet as well)
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
The account in question was also impersonating a verified Twitter user, which is a violation of Twitters terms of service. twitter.com/jud_judson_esq… help.twitter.com/en/rules-and-p…

People live their whole lives in suburbs afraid of violent cities but they’ll never have an encounter with a stranger like this in Glendale or whatever

Look at this footage. @laurenboebert was tweeting the Speaker’s location as this was all happening. When I spoke of my fear of being raped again while locked in my office bathroom, @TuckerCarlson mocked it. So did Boebert. @NancyMace insinuated to her supporters it was a lie.

Hi Matt, I know you're relativley new to MN politics, so a bit of background. I proposed this bill several months ago. Republican leaders in the House and Senate called it a "gimmick" and opposed it.
Suspend the MN gas tax right now. Why wouldn't you do that in this time of crisis for many working class families?
