#GeorgeFloyd should be alive. Instead, he was killed as he begged police for his life. The impunity of police violence is a systemic problem we must face to save lives. Police brutality is now a leading cause of death for young Black men in the US. The status quo is killing us. — PolitiTweet.org

Let’s also not ignore the racial history of this terminology, which has roots in slavery. &It’s not just the terminology that’s racialized. Even today, the folks deemed as “human capital stock”(aka essential workers) are disproportionately Black, Brown, & low income White folks. https://t.co/VO0lpCN1nP — PolitiTweet.org

Human Capital Stock. An ugly term w ugly history, but for many powerful ppl it‘s their most honest view of workers: human stock. By their logic, the moment a person stops being useful to profit motive (retirement, health, etc) they are a liability. That’s the system we live in. — PolitiTweet.org

Wow: Norma McCorvey (aka “Roe” of Roe v Wade) revealed on her deathbed that she was paid by right-wing operatives to flip her stance on reproductive rights. So, like many right-wing operations, it turns out a huge part of the anti-choice movement was a scam the entire time. — PolitiTweet.org

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC

@caityweaver No worries - none of this is foundational, and much of it is passed through word of mouth within privileged classes. I’m learning along w you! It’s one way the preservation of power works: by keeping certain knowledge behind closed doors. Sharing it helps democratize power. 💪🏽 — PolitiTweet.org
