Ericka Simone

@johan appreciate you.

@ErickaSimone Suspended here.

This is the typical white supremacist behavior that most people of color are forced to deal with on this platform. An overemotional white male is more upset with being called out for codling fascist blonde girls, and proceeds to go straight to overacting and being racist toward the Black woman providing pushback. And I was being nice.

Again. I’m going to ask you to #Fediblock, and also need to report this. Immediately. Boost when you can. Thanks.

@ErickaSimone It's very hard not to stay 'calm' or 'positive' when I'm constantly surrounded by bullshit, and will continue to get invaded by said bullshit as time goes on.
And the audacity of some people to believe that it's MY FAULT for being so depressed and anxious. They think I should look to the 'positive' side of life (that side has been fleeting from my existence).

@ErickaSimone @derZeitreiser People like him demand 'respect' or 'civility' when they do the opposite like what happened here just now. No introspection. No reflection. Just deflect. Can't take any of y'all seriously anymore.

Good morning to readers; #Kyiv remains in #Ukrainian hands.

#Russia is trying everything to influence public opinion in the U.S. ahead of the upcoming midterm elections. Yuliia Dukach explains how the latest in #AI technology helps the #Kremlin do just that.

#Fediblock: Racism, genocide supporter, misogynoir, general delusion:

White males coddling nazi white females that drive a genocide are also complicit in said genocide.

@atomicpoet we just saw someone advocate for the concept of “misandry” as a trans man a few days ago over here. The upside down.

In July 2024, I reported that Coinbase appeared to be violating campaign finance law by making contributions while holding federal contracts. I filed an FEC complaint alongside Public Citizen. The FEC hasn’t acted. Since, Coinbase has given $60M more and landed another federal contract.

“When #PatrickStewart was growing up in the 1940s, he witnessed how, after his father beat his mother, home doctors and ambulance workers would tell her: “You must have done something to provoke him.”

Stewart knew the violence was never warranted, a conviction that became the spark for a lasting commitment to campaigning for greater understanding of domestic abuse.”

👆

Commanding stage presence, great actor; For me though, it’s the leadership shown on #DV that elevates Patrick beyond other actors and celebs. Using visibility and position of power. 🖖

“Most White American Liberals ache and yearn for the aesthetics of marginalized groups, and easily play white confessional to cosplay (or LARP, better word needed) their way into the spaces of the oppressed, but never want to do the real, ACTUAL SHADOW WORK of *decentering their whiteness and themselves. There is never full abolition work with the typical “White” Liberal.”

About to get another A+ you guys. Just snapped in sociopolitical studies 403 cheer me on

I hope Sam Altman eats some bad lettuce.

If you don't like Nazis first step is to stop giving them your money.

A reminder that this book is excellent & very solarpunk & I highly recommend it because we've got some rough times ahead...no matter what prudent planning one does to manage chaotic times, you never know what crazy ass thing will happen. Planning for the unknown unknowns is all about resilience.
