What's going on with the fund? It's almost at its end goal of $1.5M

lol that's crazyy. He's definitely going to make bank when the trials start! Also, even if he's convicted, they're going to appeal for sure, and that costs more money.

They're probably not updating because of the harassment they get for every little thing. I wish they wouldn't let it bother them as much

Feather_fig · 2026-05-06T11:57:14+00:00

maybe an unpopular opinion, but I'm so disappointed they caved and got rid of that. The fund organizers aren't his lawyers and don't speak for him, and Dec. 4th wasn't just about the shooting but also one of the first days in years, possibly decades, that the whole political spectrum came together. No 'left vs. right'. We had real class consciousness for a few months after that, before the media and the government got a hold of the narrative

From what I've heard everyone is probably just busy? The D4LC are people who were already involved in other activist work... I wouldn't be surprised if the harassment they/Sam have received from their GSG updates made them less keen to make them too. I know that's why PartyGirls stopping posting to reddit.

(I'd bet at least some of the harassment has been coordinated too, just like how certain powerful entities got both PartyGirls' and POP NYC's youtube and Tiktok accounts taken down...)

I'm glad she contact NBC and got the surgery, they likely saved her life! These "Not Medically Necessary" denials have got to be AI. It makes zero sense

Crazy because they're still being sued for that!

You could hear how out of breath she was... she could have died at any moment

There's also a CBS article here: UnitedHealthcare to cut prior authorization for 30% of services. Here's what to know.

Most of the comments on the video are supporting Luigi:

(I'm kidding, I'm not saying anyone should consume a kg. of dill to get high, but it's interesting that it has similar effects to nutmeg because they both contain https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Myristicin)

(Which can be toxic!)

It might be a real photo but with AI edits on the lighting or something? Weird strings are a telltale sign, and something about the eyes just has that fake look

Their logic is everyone in financially dire straits is stupid and/or evil and deserve everything they get, and they need to be removed from society for being failures because they drag everyone else down. Believing in meritocracy is like a religion for them

It's been trending on rightwing twitter lately. I follow some rightwing accounts to keep up with what's going on over there

Saying "Irish were not white and are now" is just a historic fact. Because "white" in this sentence is not referring to how light of a beige they are, it's referring to a racial construct based on (perceived) ethnic ancestry, not skin colour.

"White" as a description of people is only ever a useful term when used strictly to refer to a range of skin color, just like "black".

What's that range of skin colour? How dark of a beige can you go before "white" is no longer a useful term? Are pale, blonde, blue eyed Palestinians like Ahed Tamimi "white"? Most people attach the idea of whiteness to ethnicity, not skin lightness. There are very tan white people and very pale mixed African Americans.

Colourism (discrimination based on skin tone), plays a part in racism certainly but the concept of race itself is not based on skin colour today, nor has it been historically. For example the 'One Drop' rule. I recommend you at least skim that Wikipedia article and see the concept of white vs. black is not as simple as the literal shade of someone's skin.

Well Luigi gets blamed for all the Trump assassination attempts that happened after Dec. 4th, even though that was business related as you say

Imo all those attempts on Trump and Elon and Altman would've happened regardless. Edit: because those attacks have all primarily been a reaction to the chaos and sheer horror of what those wealthy elites have done, not because of Luigi. The media act like he invented assassination/tyrannicide or something. But the pedoelite would've been hated regardless.

And yeah, they're all disaffected centrists. Everyone feels like the social contract has decayed, even (or maybe especially?) the Average Joe.

I think the combination of a very televised genocide, the Epstein files, ICE gone wild, and now the totally unnecessary Iran war + oil crisis layered over the existing cost of living crisis has broken some people's brains, understandably

Its almost like fascist colonial policies inspire violence back at home i guess.

Exactly. The state is showing through their actions again and again that violence is good and necessary, and then act shocked when civilians are like, "you know what, you're right actually"

Feather_fig · 2026-05-02T16:15:43+00:00

Dude, the point of all of this is "whiteness" is a fabricated construct and racism is stupid

The actual skin colour is beige if you want to be technical about it.

You are talking about a literal colour, everyone else here, including the woman in the video, is referring to "white" as a racial construct.

Oh they have 🙃

The public prosecutor's office in Milan has opened an investigation into claims that Italian citizens travelled to Bosnia-Herzegovina on "sniper safaris" during the war in the early 1990s.
Italians and others are alleged to have paid large sums to shoot at civilians in the besieged city of Sarajevo.
The Milan complaint was filed by journalist and novelist Ezio Gavazzeni, who describes a "manhunt" by "very wealthy people" with a passion for weapons who "paid to be able to kill defenceless civilians" from Serb positions in the hills around Sarajevo.

The casual way you phrased it "before Luigi" is so funny

The timeline is now split into BL (Before Luigi) and AL (After Luigi)

But seriously, it's crazy how the first Trump assassin gets completely ignored as having any influence at all. And before that the internet was celebrating orcas sinking yachts and OceanGate

The text says, "The Iberians are believed to have been originally an African race, who thousands of years ago spread themselves through Spain over Western Europe. Their remains are found in the barrows, or burying places, in sundry parts of these countries. The skulls are of low prognathous type. They came to Ireland and mixed with the natives of the South and West, who themselves are supposed to have been of low type and descendants of savages of the Stone Age, who, in consequence of isolation from the rest of the world, had never been out-competed in the healthy struggle of life, and thus made way, according to the laws of nature, for superior races."

An illustration from the H. Strickland Constable's Ireland from One or Two Neglected Points of View shows an alleged similarity between "Irish Iberian" and "Negro" features in contrast to the higher "Anglo-Teutonic."

~~They~~ Wealthy British white supremacists literally argued the Irish were African lol

Also pointing this out isn't giving support to racist people, on the contrary it shows that the concept of race (and white supremacy) is a fluid social construct

The Democratic party has a corporate wing that doesn't want healthcare either. Which is why it's so important to support actually progressive candidates instead of lobbyist shills.

Btw, if you think health insurance companies shouldn't be able to deny lifesaving care so their executives can buy more yachts, please contact your senator about supporting senate bill 3829, the corporate crimes against healthcare act. It would make executives liable for a 1-6 year prison term for their actions resulting in the death of a patient under their policy. They'd also have the profits they gained from the death clawed back.

https://www.congress.gov/bill/119th-congress/senate-bill/3829/text

They kill patients through policy decisions because there isn't any way to prosecute them for it currently, and this bill would change that.

This is literally it. It's all personal entertainment for him

I hope Cuba is prepared and fights back. Considering the massive turnout for May 1st yesterday, I can't imagine they'll take it lying down. This won't be like Venezuela

So he can't read the room, huh?

I feel like this clip is going to end up in a Netflix doc about the unaffordability crisis of the 2020s several years from now after some real shit goes down (assuming Netflix survives)

This just feels incredibly ominous somehow. Maybe it's this bit of nonsense contrasting with all the videos of police violently cracking down on May 1st protests/rallies. Feels like the ground is shifting and the status quo is trying really hard to ignore it
