If you're an IDF soldier and you've killed a Palestinian child you're allowed to enter Canada. If you're a band that says that's wrong or genocide is bad you're not.
On behalf of the Government of Canada I am announcing that on the advice of our officials, we have deemed the group Kneecap ineligible to enter our country. Our government will not tolerate the advocating of political violence, terrorism or Anti-Semitism and hate more broadly.

If you can't criticize the President of the United States or his allies, you can't run against the President of the United States or his allies. See this for what it is.

Kurt Vonnegut was once asked why he wrote books when presidents and senators don’t read; he replied, “You catch people before they become generals and presidents and so forth and poison their minds with humanity … to encourage them to make a better world.”
Reading fiction is not just a pleasant pastime. It teaches us empathy. It puts us in the shoes of those who are different from us. It’s a form of resistance against the forces of ignorance and bigotry and lack of imagination that tear our world apart.

The right is backed by MONEY, think tanks, and a shared goal of maintaining white supremacy. I’m tired of seeing ppl pretend right wing commentators, creators, politicians, and entertainers are more popular due to merit, strategy, or skill level of any kind—they have MONEY.

This but unironically. Just yesterday, Boston DSA had another new member join who explicitly mentioned being prompted to join by meeting a handful of Boston DSA people at the No Kings/Boston Pride march back in June. Protests -> Specific Organizing is a very real path
Another "No Kings" march with wacky homemade signs should fix all this

Not exaggerating when I say the future of democracy depends on kids becoming readers. The institutions that make us safe and free were built in a literate world, and they won't survive if most people are unable to communicate or think.
No attention span and no literacy is a bad, bad combination.

I hope every liberal who was “just worried about women’s sports” feels as awful and ashamed as they should.

Gutfeld means nothing to you?
The president on Air Force One: “When you have a network and you have evening shows and all they do is hit Trump, that’s all they do — if you go back, I guess they haven’t had a conservative one in years, or something — when you go back and take a look, all they do is hit Trump.

Brad Lander is as true a New Yorker as they come: principled, good-hearted, and focused on community. He is willing to put his body on the line, and that’s what true leadership looks like.
JUST NOW: NYC Comptroller @bradlander was arrested by DHS police a SECOND time at 26 Federal Plaza. Lander refused to leave the 10th floor until he was allowed to inspect ICE holding cells there. He was arrested with 10 other state elected officials.

In 1946 WWII veteran Maceo Snipes was shot in his back by the KKK the day after he became the first Black person to cast a vote in Taylor County, Georgia. After he was shot, Mr. Snipes walked three miles to the hospital with his mother. For six hours doctors left him waiting
