#the New Administrative Capital

Just in case you had any doubts about how the coming administration sees the conflict...

This is a distraction. Constitutional amendments are stupid hard to pass. Probably more useful to check and see if your state is gearing up to use immigrants as slave labor (Missouri is, there's a whole bill setting it up) or how to give money to the legal organizations that are currently stalling on transferring trans prisoners to their AGAB prison, or other bits of harm delay. They want us so overwhelmed we do nothing. Screen out the news, pick a thing, and do something about it.

Seeing what Musk did on national television during the U.S. Presidential Inauguration radicalized me all over again. This is completely unacceptable. As a country we cannot allow ourselves to be controlled by fascists' and fascist NAZIS at that?! Delete all of your Twitter accounts. Feel free to use my art above to post as your explanation. Leave this man with nothing but the angry mob that will come for him too eventually. Delete your META accounts too. Instagram, Facebook, and WhatsApp. They cannot use us for propaganda if we do not give them access. This is NOT the America that the world deserves. And I resent the men in power that allowed for the worlds richest turned white nationalist into the government system .

Here is my latest YouTube video. I am continuing my project of taking my streams of me reading the Democratic Party Platform and cutting it up in sections. Trump did inhumane family separation. However, family separation also happened under Biden. Just wasn't as horrible as it was under Trump. But the Dems promise to keep the families together. Keep them together in the camps that are still there.

Also pay attention to the 3 people he didn’t pardon and it does almost make sense.

I feel like I'm playing 4D chess trying to figure out how to get myself and my family through the next 4 years (and honestly through the rest of our lives, everything Trump does is going to fuck us over for the next 50 years).

What happens when my retired parents lose Medicare and Social Security? What happens when the ACA is struck down and we all lose healthcare because every one of us has something that is considered a pre-existing condition? Do we break our leases/sell our houses and pool all our resources together in one place? How much cash do we need to hoard to get us through when the banks shut down or restrict withdrawals/card usage? What extra jobs can I pick up to earn the extra cash needed to stash away? Are there any vaccines I haven't gotten that I need to get in the next 2 months? Do I need to stock up on canned goods? Lots of extra fuel for the camp stove? More gallons of water? Pull money out of savings to upgrade all my tech before the tariffs hit and prices skyrocket? Get a car that's newer than 20 years old because then I might not need one for another 20 years? AHHHH

Judge temporarily blocks part of Trump's plans to freeze federal aid

The decision comes in response to a lawsuit filed by advocacy groups and several state attorneys general who argued that the aid freeze would disproportionately impact low-income communities, education initiatives, and disaster relief efforts. Read more...

[radio-ghost-cooks]

hey just here to say that i need people to pay attention to Donald Trump's Kiddie Table (aka the Department of Government Efficiency) because this has the potential to fuck over everyone and everything

you want more e. coli? you want more recalls? you want more people in danger? you want to fuck over restaurants? you want food stamps to get worse? because this is exactly how you do that.

i cannot stress enough that Elon Musk will soon have the ability to propose changes to governement agencies that him and trump deem inefficient or unneccessary. two billionares. are going to say what programs put in place to help people aren't important.

as funny as the acronym is i need ya'll to pay attention here. please for the love of the gods i'm already a trans man the last thing i need is trust in my industry at risk because Muskrat and Cheeto Puff say we're going back to The Jungle era of meatpacking.

YOU'VE PROBABLY HEARD THIS: THOSE WHO DO NOT LEARN THEIR HISTORY ARE DOOMED TO REPEAT IT.

BUT HAVE YOU THOUGHT ABOUT IT THIS WAY? DON'T LET THEM LIE TO YOU.

PROTESTING ISN'T JUST YOUR RIGHT AS AN AMERICAN - IT'S YOUR LEGACY. IT'S HOW EVERY SINGLE RIGHT YOU HAVE WAS WON.

THIS IS LONG BUT YOU SHOULD READ IT.

Ya'll are out here talking about throwing Teslas in the harbor without understanding why we threw all that fucking tea in there to begin with. NO TAXATION WITHOUT REPRESENTATION. Does that mean nothing to you anymore?

LOOK AT THE RECEIPTS:

Boston Tea Party (1773) - Sparked the American Revolution and established right to resist unjust government

Women's Suffrage Parade (1913) - Won women's right to vote in 1920

The March on Washington (1963) - Led to Civil Rights Act of 1964 and Voting Rights Act of 1965

Stonewall Riots (1969) - Started by Marsha P. Johnson, a Black trans woman throwing the first brick at police - launched LGBTQ+ rights movement, led to first Pride marches and gay rights organizations

The Occupation of Alcatraz (1969-71) - 89 people forced recognition of Native treaty rights and sparked Native American civil rights movement

March For Our Lives (2018) - Led to gun safety legislation in multiple states, changed national conversation on gun violence

PROTEST ISN'T JUST MARCHING IN STREETS:

It's art that makes people uncomfortable - Nina Simone's "Mississippi Goddam" did more for civil rights than any polite request

It's music that wakes people up - When Billie Holiday sang "Strange Fruit," she made America face its lynching horror

It's visual art that exposes truth - ACT UP's protest art forced America to see the AIDS crisis

It's writing that changes minds - Underground newspapers, pamphlets, manifestos

It's performance that disrupts - Guerrilla theater, die-ins, creative actions

It's documentation - Recording injustice, preserving movement history

It's education - Teaching real history, sharing tactics

It's cultural resistance - Creating alternative spaces and institutions

It's economic pressure - Boycotts, strikes, union organizing

It's legislative action - Calling reps, attending meetings

It's digital organizing - Coordinating actions online

It's DECOLONIZING YOUR BODY AND MIND

It's healing trauma so you can fight better

It's building community when they want you isolated

It's REFUSING TO SHUT UP when they want you quiet

HEY STRAIGHT CIS WHITE PEOPLE (ESPECIALLY MEN) - WAKE THE FUCK UP: You think your rights as a worker aren't next? Think about it - they're coming for minorities first but you're just as disposable to them. You think missing a day of work to protest is scary and inconvenient? Wait till they reinstate the draft.

Even fucking THOMAS JEFFERSON - that slave-owning racist piece of shit - understood that the government always needs watching. 'I prefer dangerous liberty to quiet servitude.' When even the architect of oppression knows people need the power to resist, what's your fucking excuse? He knew EXACTLY how this shit works:

Look at these capitalist cycles:

Create a crisis - Housing crash of 2008, current rent crisis, medical debt crisis

Make people desperate - Minimum wage stuck at $7.25, union-busting, student loan trap

Take away rights - Gutting voting rights, ending Roe, attacking trans healthcare

Blame minorities - "They're taking your jobs" "They're grooming kids" "They're ruining the country"

Rinse and fucking repeat until we're all too exhausted to resist

You think being gay not being classified as a mental illness just HAPPENED? That took until 1973. You think gay marriage being legal just HAPPENED? That was 2015 - a fucking DECADE ago. Rights aren't given - they're FOUGHT FOR. Every. Single. Day.

And look what's happening now:

They overturned Roe v Wade in 2022 after 50 years of precedent

They've banned trans healthcare in over 20 states

They've banned LGBTQ education in Florida, Texas, and beyond

They're trying to overturn birthright citizenship

Workers' rights are next

And you're worried about missing ONE shift?

KNOW YOUR FUCKING RIGHTS: https://www.aclu.org/know-your-rights/protesters-rights#:~:text=The%20First%20Amendment%20protects%20your,the%20exercise%20of%20speech%20rights.

THERE ARE MORE OF US THAN THEM:

89 people held Alcatraz

A few drag queens started Pride

Small groups of workers won your weekend

Teenagers who survived a shooting showed more courage than all you "can't miss work" cowards

IT DOESN'T TAKE EVERYONE - IT JUST TAKES ENOUGH

You think America stayed a democracy this long because everyone showed up to their 9-5 like good little worker bees? FUCK NO. It's because people fought back. They organized. They resisted.

WAKE UP. GET ORGANIZED. QUIT PARTICIPATING IN YOUR OWN DISENFRANCHISEMENT.

Your silence is compliance. If you think things are fine, you’re one of the people who need to get out there for those who are fighting for their basic human rights.

THEY WANT YOU:

Afraid of missing work

Isolated from your community

Living paycheck to paycheck

Too exhausted to fight back

Thinking protest never works

Blaming women and minorities instead of billionaires

PROVE THEM WRONG. EVERYONE HAS A PART IN THE RESISTANCE.
