Sorry. We’ve fought nazis in WWII. I have no remorse for a nazi getting punched in the face. They want to kill us. They want white male supremacy. I don’t have time for that kind of bullshit rhetoric and neither should you. Sometimes you have to fight. That kind of evil needs to be stomped out by any means…

The abortion rate is currently at its lowest point since Roe v Wade passed. Because we had Planned Parenthood and access for free birth control.

Except this time, when they point their gun at the Exxon-Mobil mercenaries protecting said corporate land, they will be shot dead instantly and no one will give a shit.

If those Bundy fundies thought that the fed’s grazing fees were high, just wait until they get the invoice from Exxon-Mobil.

It is a medical procedure in the same way that a nose job or an appendectomy is a medical procedure. It should not be refused based on any sort of moral and/or religious judgement. In the eyes of the law, it should be seen the same way. And, very much like an appendectomy, sometimes it is necessary to save the life of…

Pro-choice advocates can help move the dialogue around abortion in a different direction. Maybe go up to pro-lifers and say, “Oh, you want to help stop abortions? Me too, and I’d love your help on this. Let’s implement comprehensive sex education in schools, increase the availability and affordability of birth control…

There’s a difference between political allegiance and political alliance. Allegiance is being an individual who is part of a defined group held together by a largely shared set of goals and values. For example the Democratic Party, the Catholic Church, the USA. Alliances are temporary arrangements to get things done…

Yeah, pretty much. Pro-lifers are always horrified that us pro-choicers support babies being murdered.

Um, no. Murdering babies is very illegal and literally nobody is fighting for the right to do that.

Morons.

I especially love that they’re in front of a house in the suburbs with the city skyline in the background; a dig at Trump’s “inner cities” dog whistle.

THIS. Just seeing Black people in positions of power and influence has left a huge impact on me personally. I usually brush off soft-power like seeing them around all the time. But man, did it normalize Blackness in the best of ways by seeing it so openly around. I’m not saying racism is solved by any stretch of the…

The White House is no longer an acceptable place for children given who its future resident will be.

I have been a nurse for nearly 2 decades now, and I’ve spent half of that time working in the insurance industry. I spent a good portion of that time implementing ACA regulations. All of which is to say that I have a better understanding than most about what the ACA is and is not, and how insurance works.

I think she’s totally right. It isn’t even just about racism, although of course that touches every part of this. For example, I’ve been reading a lot of chatter about the ACA and the stuff people say is so fucking dumb. Not understanding what a repeal would mean, not understanding how insurance works, not…

The white people who are saying this to you are idiots, but I can tell you from experience that racist white people do not listen to normal white people either. They don’t listen to anyone except for the blowhards in their echo chambers. I completely agree with Duvernay. There is no point in engaging with these…

Bingo. I keep hearing certain liberals telling me I need to engage with Trump voters. Bullshit. They’re my same racist relatives who spent 8 years slagging on President Obama. They’re not concerned with coal mining jobs. They want revenge for 8 years of having a black man as President. Trump supporters are racists.…

I like this perspective. Now that trump has been elected, white people are ON ME to engage with racists and teach them a better, more loving way. As if I haven’t been trying this my whole life. White people, the responsibility to pick up your own house is YOURS.
