This is just one section of the NYPD lined up to help escort fascists to a clinic this morning so they can harass people seeking abortion care
The fascists emerged from the church two minutes ago, and then NYPD is already threatening everyone who isn’t on the fascist side with arrest
NYPD cops yuckin it up as they watch fascists try to go harass a clinic
The side that supports and defends the right to abortion (support @nycforabortion) is very successfully delaying the Christo-fascists from moving towards the clinic
A massive number of NYPD cops are again threatening people with arrest, for trying to slow the Christo-fascist procession to harass abortion providers
Organizers with @nycforabortion said that the fascists got a permit this week, which might have something to do with the monstrous NYPD presence, although they protect this procession monthly. But this begs the question, how did they get a permit to harass a clinic?
Another shot of just part of the small army New Yorkers pay to protect the Christo-fascists harassing a clinic on a Saturday morning
The commanding NYPD cop here (Nikas in the hat) making the boys crack up while they escort fascist to harass a clinic
One of the vilest things antis do is pose as fake clinic escorts. Bernadette Patel (in the pink) does this monthly. Luckily @nycforabortion has it covered.

The NYPD army the people of New York pay to protect people harassing folks seeking abortion
Because the good folks with @nycforabortion slowed the procession down so much, the Christo-fascists are already headed back to their church (The Basilica of St. Patrick's Old Cathedral) with their NYPD escort
The pope (@CHBAF) is now being denied access to the church
More coverage from another great Josh!
One last plug, if you don’t follow @nycforabortion and you’re someone in New York especially who supports bodily autonomy and abortion access, give em a follow and shop up to clinic defenses!
Ah hadn’t seen Isabelle’s coverage. Another account to follow for sure.

White supremacists are now marching in Charleston, West Virginia. With no police in sight.
I’m sure every politician in the country will release statements denouncing this.
As others have said, no cops in uniform in sight. Or no violent attacks on people by police here. That's reserved for students protesting genocide, apparently.

There's a ton of police brutality right now, but there's also more and more of this: students standing their ground and refusing to be forced into silence. Thread.

Every statement from a politician calling the Columbia protesters antisemitic doesn't provide evidence. They don't even try. Thread.
John Fetterman. No evidence at all, of course.

If this Labor Day feels a little different, that’s because it is.

Workers are fighting and winning in a way we haven't seen in decades.

And this could be just the beginning. Thread 🧵
1. There’s so much good news it’s hard to know where to start.

It just isn't serious when people claim to be on the left then insist on assessing each billionaire by how nice and kind they are rather than understanding their position as shapers and upholders of policy and of this oppressive capitalist system more broadly.
We can work towards a world where we treat those who currently oppose us with kindness and where we build a world of abundance, while understanding that there are very powerful people actively working to maintain the current status quo and all the violence it requires.
These are people who not only create and maintain conditions of mass poverty and death, but work to eliminate regulations, work to keep housing precarious, work to keep people hungry. They are responsible for a number of deaths and an amount of misery that is hard to calculate.
