What about FOIA though

Yes, but people still need to tell white women why just saying “equal rights” and “everyone is welcome” isn’t enough, and white women need to know why it’s important to not get so defensive about it.

Activism doesn’t feel great. It challenges you. This is a challenge — you’re supposed to rise up and meet it.

So how do you make them go away? Because I’d really like that.

In all seriousness, now that they have people who are at least sympathetic enough with them to not condemn them in the white house (and probably worse), I think something a little more than condemnation from us is called for.

With the new uptick in fascism, nationalism and isolationism are getting more support than they ever have. Be careful with that prediction.

That’s actually fairly similar to what ISIS wants — they provoke the West because they believe that the End of Days begins with the West and them having a great war in the Arabian Peninsula or something like that, so they want us to all-out attack them. Somebody should tell those guys they share goals with ISIS :P

I think it’s okay to punch someone who regularly talks about the genocide of black people

Guy punches someone in the face and of course they leap to “domestic terrorist”

Okay so what do you do if people start getting rounded up to be killed? Do you fight back physically then? Alright cool — but it’s too late by then, power has been solidified and your violence will not have much impact. So when do you do it?

And we know that abusive people always blame the violence on the abused, when they were the ones to originate the violence. Calling for genocide is violence.

Best bet is a leaker. Hacking would be wayyy more work than someone with access leaking the documents.

The differences you see between men and women’s behavior can be explained by social influences. Yes, even the shooters — when I was a young girl, my parents wouldn’t buy video games for me. When they finally bought a console for my brother, it was a Nintendo one — which doesn’t have many shooters in the first place —…

Well that may also eliminate people who: had the school system fail them/are poor/have learning or some other disabilities. Poll tests are discrimination.

I mean, that’s the motivation of the people who start the anti-abortion propaganda, but it’s important to remember that a lot of the people doing this are women who think that they are protecting women from harm. It has a lot to do with being exposed to a lot of twisted narratives and never the inconvenient ones about…

I’d say that’s the case in a lot of the cases of white republican dudes but as a white woman who was raised in a catholic community... it’s not always true. The anti-abortion Catholics had me convinced for a while that abortion was murder and that it harmed women — so banning it was an act of care. Took a feminist…

This group worked in my hometown and would send educators to local high schools (an all-girls and an all-boys school, among them). I don’t know where you are but looking at what they do might be a good start — I know they were fairly effective where I was. http://mocsa.org/

His supporters are not more poor than most Americans. That’s a myth — one that needs to stop spreading. https://fivethirtyeight.com/features/the-mythology-of-trumps-working-class-support/

You can do this. I encourage you to call the number people have been posting for the suicide hotline, 1-800-273-8255, or if that’s overwhelming you can text http://www.crisistextline.org/textline/.

The things that have helped me in the past are to know that many people move back and forth on wanting to die. Many don’t…

Yeah honestly that face to me looks like an attempt to suppress a grin/laugh

At that point I don’t know if I could stop myself from referring to them as “Racist #1" etc... yes, to their faces.
