BREAKING: Supreme Court released their opinion on NYSRPA v Bruen. The decision undermines states' right to regulate guns -- this is a threat to everybody. Here's why ➡️
Let's be clear: gun violence is a gender justice issue:
▶️ Most mass shooters have a history of violence towards women
▶️ 54% of mass shootings in the United States are connected to intimate partner violence
▶️ 98% of mass shootings are perpetrated by men.

The numbers don't lie: gun violence prevention IS gender justice.
Today’s decision on Bruen was made possible by Republicans who packed the Supreme Court bench with ideological extremists and overtly political operatives.
Republicans will break any principle to distort our nation’s political system against the will of the American people

This decision goes directly against what the overwhelming majority of Americans know to be true: that more common sense gun violence prevention make us safer.

An information ecosystem has quickly been built -- catapulting abortion access and rights to the forefront.

🧵 THREAD on abortion disinformation & ways to identify & combat disinfo and share #AbortionFacts instead. /1
The first rule about disinformation is: we don't share disinformation. /2
Even if you have the best intentions of correcting the disinformation, you'll only feed the disinformation into a biased algorithm, which will help it spread even further.

IF you do want to share bad takes, take a screenshot 📸 and then share. NEVER retweet or quote tweet! /3 Image

As long as "The Joe Rogan experience" is active on spotify, companies need to stop spending big bucks on advertising. A 🧵on why: /1
The CEO of @Spotify has doubled down on keeping Joe Rogan on Spotify's platform, despite having regulations on COVID disinformation, which Rogan has repeatedly had disinformation spreading guests on. /2
Rogan aired a so-called "apology video" on Instagram that instead defended how he hosted a slew of anti-vaxx, anti-science guests to share mis and disinformation to his 11 million listeners. /3

“We have to think about the cultural terrain and context that we live under. Celebrating abortion as a liberating personal freedom is alienating in the social and religious context of most immigrant families." @SSFTexas #BansOffOurBodies #AbortionJustice
.@NationalNOW reported that nearly 50% of immigrant & undocumented women experience violence from an intimate partner, 3x times the national average.

Did you know your constitutional right to an abortion is on the U.S. Supreme Court docket?

RT if you believe #AbortionIsEssential Image
2/6
On Dec 1, the Court will consider Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health Organization, a case dealing with Mississippi's abortion ban that DIRECTLY challenges Roe v. Wade. That’s right, the state of Mississippi is asking the Court to take away your constitutional right to abortion.
3/6
If Roe is overturned, *half* the country are poised to ban abortion. The harm and chaos experienced by folks in Mississippi and nearby states like Texas, will spread across the South and Midwest.
