Tesla’s damning allegations of racism and discrimination — in the current lawsuit against the company — are so unabashedly offensive that areas of work at the Fremont plant were called the “slaveshift or plantation,” white employees called Black people the n-word and in Spanish “negrita/o.” Black people “were confronted with racist writing while working at Tesla. They saw racist graffiti – including ‘N[ ],’ ‘KKK,’ swastikas, the Confederate flag, a white supremacist skull, ‘go back to Africa,’ and ‘mayate’ [Spanish slur] – written on the restroom walls, restroom stalls, lockers, workplace benches, workstations, lunch tables, and the break room.” The only way to ensure that Musk is paying attention is to not support his companies, period. We stand with the Tesla employees who suffered all of this blatant prejudice while no one did anything to properly address and stop it. We condemn Elon Musk’s lack of action and simple inhumanity. If we don’t take clear stances against bullies and bigots, we might as well never complain nor report on it. Let’s no forget that Musk has a trans daughter who left him and renounced his last name. Musk has been unashamedly clear of his anti-LGBTQI+ stances, especially, as of late, his anti-trans ones. Let’s make it a point in the New Year to support those who support us and our allies.

Leaked SCOTUS draft opinion reveals the overturning of Row v. Wade … now that decision coming in 2 weeks and this column by our editor is more pertinent than ever.

#RoeVWade is the law. It protects all people born with an uterus to make decisions for their bodies. It’s not about religion. It focuses on #abortionrights and the lack of equal rights for any non-majority group dealing with such decision and lack of access. The justices allegedly involved in sexually abusing women — Thomas and Kavanaugh — should not be allowed to vote for a woman or a person’s decision to reproductive rights, much less when in most instances men’s sexual abuse and rape are at the center of it all. As someone said recently, “it all starts with a man’s orgasm,” yet men who are mostly the culprit of it (as it pertains to sexual abuse, invest and rape), still have a say as to what happens next to the person they abused. #roe #supremecourt #supremecourtjustice #impeachclarencethomas #impeachbrettkavanaugh #abortionrights #abortionishealthcare #lesbian #transmen #reproductivehealth #reproductiverights #lgbtcommunity #uterus #derechosreproductivos #women #equalrights #heforshe #womenrights #legislatevasectomies #legislatethepenis By: @occupydemocrats (at Boston, Massachusetts) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cdlz_TVOtlR/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Absolutely … Thanks, #MotherJones #Repost @motherjonesmag ・・・ America's anti-vaxxers are more dangerous than ever.⁠ ⁠ For a few brief weeks in the spring, it seemed as if the United States was poised to announce a small victory in the fight against the pandemic, wrote Nathalie Baptiste.⁠ ⁠ A vaccine had arrived in record time. It was proven effective against serious illness and hospitalization, as an average of 2 million adults were getting inoculated each day and there seemed to be plenty of the Pfizer, Moderna, and Johnson & Johnson doses to go around. The media scrambled to write pieces about how to stay safe while still breaking free of isolation, and there were seemingly millions of rhapsodic tweets about our Hot Vax Summer.⁠ ⁠ But then, predictably, the anti-vaxxers and their BFFs the anti-maskers had other plans.⁠ ⁠ As this particular unvaccinated group has asserted its importance and become a public health menace, it seems dangerous to dismiss them as an undifferentiated collective. Some are motivated by political convictions, others by accepting scientific misinformation, and a third group has bought into conspiracy theories.⁠ ⁠ Clearly there are no bright lines distinguishing them, and the Venn diagram might have a few intersections, but the unholy trinity can be found whining to reporters, delivering delusional speeches at City Hall meetings, or loudly protesting outside local schools.⁠ ⁠ Of course, anti-vaxxers are not a pandemic-created phenomenon. Even in the 1700s, one could find doctors railing against vaccinating children for diseases like smallpox. But what all these people have in common is the dire consequences of their actions.⁠ ⁠ Their refusal can and already has harmed vulnerable people. And the most alarming part isn’t that they don’t care about collective health; after all, individualism is one of the founding principles of American conservatism. Rather it’s astonishing to see how little regard they seem to have for their own lives.⁠ ⁠ Denial is a powerful move. Baptiste's column from August of this year sadly feels all too relevant many months later. To read more go to Mother Jones’ IG? Page.

Our take on @netflix ‘s decision to support anti-trans sentiment and hatred. These are the actions that cause trans people’s murders because they dehumanize our trans community’s lives.

Always live authentically and support others who do too. You can save someone by doing so and it’s just right.

From there, a movement was born. #LaRopaNoTieneGenero (the Clothes Have No Gender movement) has persisted for months now, with male teachers also participating. Props to this student for his brave action to challenge gender norms and support women’s liberation! Props to these teachers for showing up for the cause! 👏👏👏⠀ ⠀ #MaskYouLiveIn (at Boston, Massachusetts) https://www.instagram.com/p/CQJ3Zylshdi/?utm_medium=tumblr
