For all the nice nice liberals wringing their hands about the battlefield of ideas... You can’t. They’re Nazis. They subscribe to an explicitly violent ideology. You don’t talk a Nazi into not killing people.

As a queer, I want to say that I fucking love our goddamn community.

This isn’t the first time we’ve had white supremacists in the white house. Black folks can get through this the same way we always have. And this may (almost certainly) be my darker side talking here, but i hope that whites feel a fraction of what blacks and other minorities have and will have to go through and learn…

As access to abortion becomes more restricted and people continue to believe sex education encourages sex, more botched at home abortions will happen. Men and women against abortion will insist these laws save lives, will pay no attention to ho many it ruins and continue to believe anyone who dies attempting abortion…

The newspaper accounts prove (a) that Fred Trump was at a Klan rally and (b) wearing Klan attire.

Indigenous identity is not about DNA. This is what aggravates me so much about those fucking DNA-Ancestry commercials where people find out they’re “Native American” (just that, not what tribe, or clan, or anything else), and suddenly they’re pulling dreamcatchers out of their ass.
