Indigenous peoples have lived without police and prisons for centuries. Their examples show that it is possible to create safe and just societies without these institutions. https://t.co/Gj6QbBmAUD

I been seven steps past woke since I was 19 years old. Bitch, I’m not woke, I’m in a deeply meditative state of lucid dreaming making direct contact with the ancestral realm to transmute energy in the material. Lol!

Every time Elon Musk and his cadre of Twitter minions tweet about the dangers of the “woke” culture, I just imagine them talking to a giant blown up version of Deray’s blue vest.
