Surprised that The American Revolution isn’t preempted in #Florida. This is no longer the way American history is allowed to be taught in this state, including in its public universities. Congrats to PBS and Ken Burns for providing proper context. #AmericanRevolution

It increased competition, and raised wages, without harming employment or changing skill requirements.

At the moment, the official voice of the US government is a rancid mixture of trolling, cruelty, propaganda, and crass jokes about the human suffering they’re creating.
The official voice of the US government is cruel, gross, and weird. What is that doing to us?
Joking memes about imprisonment, deportation, and death by alligator are designed to radicalize and desensitize.

I live up in that toxic tater country, some of the towns had to pipe water in from other areas because the cancer rates are so high.
Certain chemicals used on farms, including pesticides and herbicides, have been linked to increased cancer rates. There’s also some evidence that nitrates, which can seep into drinking water from crop fields, are linked to some forms of cancer.
