Imagine sitting in your church, synagogue, gurdwawa, mosque thinking you are safe, in a place to reflect and worship and a hateful racist pos desecrates this sanctum of your faith with automatic weapons, murdering people they know nothing about, but hate because they’re told to?

I don't understand why it took so long for people to recognize who and what Maher is. He's no friend to Dems and especially, no friend to women.

White people on this site are here to support the Black community as well as BBIMP's , LGBTQ+ and the Disabled. What is being said is that we don't come onto a Black person's spout to correct, diminish, tone police, or demean. Know the difference! You saying this is racial crap is gaslighting BS.

It's stunning how many of my fellow white people don't understand that after 400 years of slavery, oppression, torture, and marginalization of Black people by white people, they owe us nothing and would be justified in telling us all to just fuck off. So when they say butt out, honor that request.

The “Put you back in your place” reflex hurled at Black folk when we accomplish anything is one of the nuts & bolts of white supremacy.

White people ALWAYS say “it wasn’t racially motivated.”
It’s the white supremacy lie they tell when the spotlight’s on them and ALWAYS because they initiate the situation…
Misdemeanors my ass.

Vaughn Cooper @Vcooper51No same-day voter registration in Mississippi; voters must register 30 days beforehand.
But officials are free to move polling precincts around—even 13 hours before an election.

That dumb billionaire oceangate submarine guy flaunted doing things in international waters where he’d be free of pesky regulations.
Now our regulated tax dollars are being used to search for him and his gameboy controlled submarine.
They always come crying for a bailout.

I won't spend time thinking of a submarine that was built at Best Buy while there is a war in Ukraine,a former president selling our nation out to the highest bidder, and a "supreme court" that is also bought and paid for.I don't want people to die,but their salvation is not even their own priority.

Late stage capitalism is billionaires getting stuck in a $250,000 submarine ride, and the submarine company cut corners on safety. And another billionaire who owns a trashy social media platform, a spaceship and exploding electric car company handled the satellite communications for said submarine.

At the end of the day, the Titanic Missing Billionaire Submarine story is a perfect distillation of 21st Century capitalism: A small group of very rich people assume a clearly irresponsible risk. It goes predictably wrong. Scores more in public resources are used to save them...

I know people are all on this submarine story...but I'm just gonna say this. We couldn't find a fucking JET in the Indian Ocean. There is no way we are finding a submerged Honda Odyssey in the North Atlantic before it's too late. You climb into a needle and dive into a haystack...it's just 🤷🏻♂️

Would it help if migrants traveled by submarine so their plight would sometimes end in ticking-clock horror movie scenarios rather than just everyday life horror?

Last night, Matt Yglesias had his life threatened and he was bullied off the platform.
He's not my favorite journalist, but the response from the team is, "We're working on a block feature," because apparently violence is OK if you can't see it.

Re: "BlueSky will appeal to the tech community"
No, it won't. It will turn into a sewer just like Twitter. This appeals to abusive neckbeards, who are regrettably plentiful. The rest of us want to have fun solving problems and pursuing knowledge, and that's just easier to do in a civilised setting.
