@MariaHill👍🏿Thank you. I really don't get what people think they're achieving by tut-tutting us about that. If the world was better, we wouldn't have to talk about the things we do.I'm thankful there's a space to do it. People who don't want to see something aren't the victim here. The oppressed are the victims. @TonyStark

If anyone is watching the Uvalde hearings, I've hardly seen a less logical person with tons of straw man arguments than whoever Lucretia Hughes is. Practically gaslighting.We gotta stop falling for this bullshit. More guns isn't the answer. It's sickness.

@MariaHillWhen a child has to tell you what they saw and heard and how put their friend's blood on themselves to appear as if they had been shot also and then laid quiet, anyone defending it is wrong. These kids will have nightmares and flashbacks for the rest of their lives. People on site had guns. Guns fail.

@TonyStarkVery true that a lot of this is aimed directly at Black people and is a form of racism. "I'd rather do without myself than see a benefit extended to Blacks and other minorities who should get off of their rear ends and work, like regular Americans."We are regular Americans. You see poor defenses like that a lot, exacerbated by right wing media.Meanwhile, helping everyone helps you. We'd get so much further if we'd all band together against exploitation and also elect Democrats who are for and pass policies for healthcare, family leave, and child support. That's caring about kids. They don't even care about the fetuses if they don't support maternal/parental help.

@TonyStarkYet another reason for gun control. Impulse/self control, impatience, anger, all are major issues for people. Allow them to carry a weapon in public and this happens.

@TonyStarkThey're also trying this bullshit. Their stuff is so bad and unpopular they're trying to pretend they didn't say it.#NoRepublican Senate candidate Blake Masters scrubbed language on campaign website saying the 2020 election was stolen from Trumphttps://www.cnn.com/2022/08/29/politics/blake-masters-campaign-website-changes/index.html

@HopeVanDyneRepublicans especially don't want Black voters and women voters. It's very obvious. @TonyStark

If you're voting for Republicans on "crime", you're really dropping the ball."Nationwide FBI estimates suggest that overall violent crime may have fallen 1% in 2021, while property crime may have fallen 4%. Far from being a blue-state problem, 8 of the 10 states with the highest homicide rates have been reliably red for the past two decades. Crime rates in border cities are lower, not higher, than the national average. And even with the 2020 spike, America’s murder rate remains below its early 1990s peak."https://news.yahoo.com/2022-poll-republicans-close-gap-on-midterm-ballot-by-attacking-democrats-on-crime-090032522.html

@TonyStarkWhite Christian nationalists don't believe in a democracy. So now Republicans don't.Until the rest of us vote them out, democracy and the economy suffer.

@TonyStarkThis man was close to being in charge of Arizona elections. This is why elections matter exactly. Good riddance indeed.

@TonyStark Per the Gun Violence Archives, that makes 33 mass shootings so far this year, resulting in 57 dead and 134 wounded. And it’s 22 days in.The bloodthirsty god of the 2nd amendment is well pleased Republicans and with the volume of human sacrifice so far this year.

@KentNelson @sparseMatrix @TonyStark I’ve been on Mastodon before you all were here. I know a few things at this age. Black people are shot a lot more than the white ones.Anyway, fix the problems and the guns.

@ricardoharvin @TonyStark @daylightatheism @CrazyBusyCreative So much white nonsense that people can pick up and move out of rights smashing states or that others should move into rights smashing states that it needs its own hashtag. #WhiteNonsenseRight up there with just get your books in the library or your kids some school online.

Things get done on a local level from your county judges to your school boards. They want to get y’all thinking that voting doesn’t make a change in your life. Most of us have to stand in lines to vote. Because it does matter.

@MKSinSA @lednabm You are the extremist in the room. We support Joe Biden. He’s not exactly far left.
