    This is also a trial run for how the ruling class intend to deal with climate catastrophe: they're betting that it will be cheaper and safer for them to use brutality and terror than to accede to living in a more just world. The protests are to make sure they know it won't be.

    The US wasn’t prepared to supply its people with medical resources or aid during a pandemic, but it was ready to send in militarized police and the National Guard to go to war with its people. There is a budget and a plan set for violence, suppression, but not for aid.

    For me, there’s still a lot of value in Twitter and a lot of it is because of threads like this, by people with expertise and with information that I might’ve missed otherwise. I never even thought about the extent of FDR’s disability before today.

    President Franklin Roosevelt gives a speech to congress. His hand is seen gripping the podium upon which several radio microphones sit.
    After Pearl Harbor, 80% of Americans listened to FDR's "infamy speech" by radio. But people at home did not know that he was gripping the podium to avoid falling down. Today we need to talk about something we rarely mention: America's disabled president. History thread:

    I wrote about the creepy guy who used to call my office because he hated feminists.

    Opinion: For years, Roy Den Hollander was a joke. Now, he’s accused of misogynist murder.

    While we’ve been arguing about refundable energy tax credits and the social cost of carbon for the last 20 years, New York has a new climate now. The old one is gone.

    Thanks to climate change, NYC, after years of being considered a humid continental climate, now sits within the humid subtropical climate zone; New species are thriving in the area, while those more associated with New England are slowly vanishing.

    People from Massachusetts: talk to your parents about Ed Markey!! My mom was fully ready to vote for Kennedy just because he’s a strapping young man with red hair.

    I know Massachusetts isn't sexy because it's a *safe blue state* but everyone on the Left should be concerned about the possibility of the Senate author of the Green New Deal losing his seat to a Kennedy who has millions of dollars of stock holdings in fossil fuel corporations

    This is open fascism. Now that it’s here and empowered, if you don’t actively oppose it, you are a fascist. That’s not name-calling. That’s just how power and fascism work. They don’t need your support, they just need your silence.
