This is where dehumanizing talk about migrants gets us.

@ScienceDesk I love what you're doing. Just keep doing it!

I've seen several people post this image, but none of them have used alt text, despite the fact that the web interface for Mastodon even offers to extract the text for you.

Anyway, here it is. And this is indeed some Nazi shit.

Reposting this with alt text. In fact the entire description is in the alt text.

Hi, people in the UK!

I just got a bill for $3,001.36, which is for one visit to the hospital. That amount is what I have to pay *after* insurance.

Vote the Tories out and protect your #NHS. The system in the US is the system they want for you. They want a profit-making health service because they'd own it and you'd be making them richer every time you go to the doctor.

And people in Scotland: in the long term Labour are not going to save the NHS. Vote #SNP. Make Scotland independent!

A HS student to their TX school board, which is banning books:

“I’m not going to sit here and talk about the slippery slope that book banning leads to because I learned from a book, that I checked out from my school’s library, that I don’t need to resort to logical fallacy to make a point. I’m simply going to say that no government – and public school is an extension of government – has ever banned books, and banned information from its public, and been remembered in history as the good guys.”
