#Trump Admin Threatens to Withhold #Funds From #PublicSchools

State #education officials will be required to verify that they have eliminated all programs that promote #diversity, #equity & #inclusion [#DEI] that the administration deems *unlawful* [uncomfortable for #FarRight #bigots] according to a new memo.

So the 4chan trolls #MAGA sadists have put in charge of the #DoD website have gone after #JackieRobinson

People with more than 2 braincells knew attacking #DEI was just a stand in for simple #racism all along

So now what. Now that #bigots are just openly bigots and no one with even 1 braincell can deny it without being laughed at, now what

We just let our honored heroes be pissed on by MAGA turds and we shrug? Forget about it? Accept it?

This country is a fucking joke

"#Tesla Reported Zero Federal Income #Tax on $2 Billion of #US Income in 2024"

https://itep.org/tesla-reported-zero-federal-income-tax-in-2024/

this right here

the root of all of our problems

how a cringe #edgelord icon of #bigotry like #Musk can wield so much power and how our #democracy dies to #plutocracy

well, not the root of all of our problems

the #bigots matter too

by goosing #ignorance and #indecency the #plutocrats can pull con jobs on hateful dimwits to wield power

the #plutocrat-#bigot #political axis

our enemy

I am so, so, so tired.
Tired of the endless barrage of stupidity coming from the #US White House
Tired of the idiocracy coming from the New Zealand Beehive
Tired of people like #Trump, #Musk, #Tamaki, etc.
Tired of being made to feel like I'm not worth anything because I am different (#Autistic)
Tired of seeing an actual dictator get his ass kissed by what the world thought was an "at least half decent" country.
Tired of seeing politicians here in #Aotearoa give in to the most petty and reckless lawmaking, purely out of spite.
Tired of people yelling bloody murder over a fucking 75cm wide #bikelane that harms nobody (The road is still wide enough for 2 cars AND a cyclist)
Tired of narrow minded #bigots treating people differently because they're not white|cis|male|western, whatever the fucking fuck their current issue is they invented to be upset about.
Tired of hearing how a few (5? maybe 6?) people are cheerfully threatening the safety of the whole world

I'm tired. Tired of people yelling. Tired of people screaming. Tired of all the shit.

Please excuse me while I go scream in to the #void, stare in to the #abyss and just... I don't know. Cry, or something. I can't take it anymore.

"At John Deere's annual shareholders meeting today, shareholders overwhelmingly rejected an anti-DEI proposal brought by the same group that targeted Costco and Apple. An anti-DEI proposal from the NCPPR received less than 1 percent of votes.

Deere shareholders: DEI is in. Bigots are out."
-NL Sterns

Some corporations are pushing back against Trump's anti-DEI efforts. We should amplify their resistance.

#SocialMedia has really fucked us up

To be clear: all blame to the #bigots and #sadists. They were here before social media, we can't blame social media for the evil they spew

But we have to recognize what anonymity on social media has done to empower them

*They’re* diseased so easy peasy finding one. Seriously, this is despicable and only the beginning. #Bigots

NYT:

Breaking News: #Trump’s advisers are said to be trying to identify a disease that could help them justify closing the U.S. border with #Mexico. They have spent months trying to find the right disease to build their case.

“help combat the rise of gender-neutral toilet spaces”

Yep, that’s the problem right there. Not climate change. Not Israel live streaming a fucking genocide with the support of the West. Not anything else. The rise of gender-neutral toilets is the real threat here, folks. Straight from a conservative’s mouth so you know it must be true.

Fuck these people.

Meanwhile in Arkansas, USA, they’re “protecting the kids.”

Deny trans kids the right to exist
Intimidate doctors providing care
Allow child labour

Reads like a prequel to The Handmaid’s Tale.

I've been on the #fediverse since the beginning of Nov 2022, actually. This is a new profile on a new instance for me because I've been having a rough go of it lately, with instances run by #bigots and #islamophobes.
