Here is a thing that happens on Twitter: every time there is a labor action, strike, or boycott, someone posts about how they would love to want to help out the workers but they just happen to rely on the service provided by the target of the action and therefore they cannot. It is therefore, they inevitably argue, not just unfair to ask them to participate in the action/strike/boycott, but actually *ableist*. (This is the most common claim, anyway, but it can be adapted to racist, misogynist, transphobic, etc., etc.)

A common myth is that right-wingers only have one joke. This is both unfair and untrue; in reality, they have six. The question is, which six? Let's take a look. JOKE #1: "My pronouns are [not pronouns]/I identify as [absurd thing to identify as]. Entry-level right-wing humor. Basic bitch shit, they issue you this joke the first time you log into Reddit.

So.

For five years now, Bernie Sanders' opponents have described him as not just excessively focused on white voters -- not just racially insensitive -- not just, well, RACIST -- but as UNIQUELY racist amongst Democratic candidates.

(1/10) Instead, he was delivered a victory in the beating heart of white America by a coalition of working-class men and women of color, many of them immigrants to this country who were being given the first chance of their entire lives to take part in the democratic process.

Today at @DSAcon2019, there was vigorous debate over Resolution #9 to establish a national antifascist working group. Dissent and debate is always good, but this is an issue of great importance to me, so I tried to do something I rarely do: publicly argue against the resolution. I ended up not speaking, as I'm a white cis male and we were keeping progressive stack. I was more than happy to yield my time to other comrades' voices. But my history around antifascist action means a lot to me, so I wanted to post for anyone who cares what I would have said.

So tired of Bernie Sanders acting like the working class just means white people So tired of Bernie Sanders pretending like there are no people of color in working-class occupations

Okay. Real busy today but I can't let @tommchenry have all the fun. So let's do bad bosses. 1. At the first day of the first job I ever had, I worked an eight-hour shift and the boss asked me if I could work another hour. He did this four times. He didn't pay me for any overtime for my twelve-hour shift. I was 14 years old.
