There is NOTHING IN AMERICA that hasn’t been touched by racism. NOTHING.
My favorite comments in here are the people who start out by saying “no it’s not racism, it’s…” and then proceed to exactly describe racism. How pathetic are these people? My goodness.
I will continue amplifying voices like this re: the latest public health crisis, monkeypox, because the media isn’t. I’m not about to watch the LGBTQ community be victimized by our system’s incompetence or be villainized by the Right if this spreads further and we’re then blamed as we were for HIV/AIDS.
i need y'all to get that headlines about climate change are supposed to spur people to action, and scientists sound the alarm because humanity still CAN do something, not because it’s inevitable and Literally Everyone Will Die
Do NOT let people let you forget that our world is still as habitable as it is today because of the work of scientists and activists of the past, that things would be MUCH WORSE now if people hadn’t acted.
Remember the ozone hole? Remember that? You haven’t heard about that in a little bit huh? THAT’S BECAUSE WE FIXED THE PROBLEM. If no one had done anything, there would be holes in the ozone layer all over the place and we would be slowly irradiated by the sun. THE EARTH WOULD HAVE BEEN UNINHABITABLE BY MIDCENTURY.
Every time you repeat the line that “Unless we end capitalism worldwide, there’s literally nothing we can do to help climate change!” the people that devoted their lives to saving species that would be gone now, preserving habitat that would be obliterated now, and fixing problems that would have been well along the way to making us extinct by now beam psychic rays of contempt in your direction
Every time some new stupid Rudy Giuliani news comes out, I can’t help but laugh. This guy absolutely did not have to go out like this. Despite being a pretty shit guy who actually made the WTC attacks worse through idiot planning, he was America’s Mayor after 9/11 and could’ve just retired on that goodwill and enjoyed the odd Adam Sandler movie cameo.
But no, he had to stay relevant, and get in bed with Trump, and be the Melting Idiot Lawyer-Traitor who Held a Press Conference in a Landscaping Parking Lot and Was Caught by Borat being a Sex Pervert, and he’s still not fucking off! He’s still humiliating himself!
He’s like some weird Spec Ops: The Line version of a politician. You were never meant to come here. None of this would’ve happened if you’d just stopped.
