People in the US support murder, atrocities, and mass surveillance in a multitude of ways. One of them is by owning stock in Palantir, despite the fact that it's among the most evil corporations in the world, just because the number keeps going up.
Wall Street wrote off Palantir as too expensive. Retail investors can't get enough
The stock, which made its market debut in 2020, is an indisputable star of the retail investing world.

Politicians--especially Dems--present these issues as being mutually exclusive and insist that we can only talk about one thing at a time instead of building the linkages between them in the public consciousness. All of these problems are interconnected and they all lead back to capitalism.

If the US implemented universal healthcare tomorrow and didn't destroy the private insurance industry and abolish capitalism, it would only be a matter of time before corporations and billionaires dismantled the public healthcare system and brought us back to where we are now.

The ruling class says that things are "hard" when they don't want to do anything about an issue. They say things are "complicated" when they want to feed you bullshit about why they won't do it.
Universal healthcare is easy. The rest of the world has already figured it out.

Billionaires are surrounded by sycophants who do nothing but kiss their ass all day long, so when they get on social media and are forced to interact with normal people, they don't understand why everyone hates their fucking guts.

Liberals only care about the Epstein Files insofar as they can use it as a political football. The contents are so damning that they would be demanding far more if it actually bothered them.
Or, maybe they're just accustomed to infanticide after supporting a policy of murdering babies under Biden.

The Epstein Files are proof that people with more money than god do the most evil shit in the world just because they're bored. Having that much more wealth and power than everyone else breeds psychopathy. Billionaires should not exist.

Considering that the "American system" itself brought us to this point, why is anyone surprised that a huge chunk of the population considers this to be a compelling argument? No one should have any faith in the system, or this country's institutions--including the media and the presidency. None.
This is as easy a test of your belief in the American system as is conceivable: Should this be an acceptable argument from a president?

It's maddening that liberals are still trying to fight fascism with rhetoric, moral appeals, claims of hypocrisy, mockery, and by working within the system. The fascists don't care. They're not playing your political games anymore. They control the system and they're actively using it to crush you.

Higher education was already collapsing as a result of neoliberal influence and an overreliance on donor money. The federal funding cuts, attacks on student protesters, and transformation of universities into culture war battlegrounds have accelerated the process.

Critics note that there's not enough electricity in the US to power all the data centers that are being built and that AI is raising energy prices. People need to think bigger and understand that we're moving toward a future where Big Tech doesn't just own power plants, but controls the entire grid.

My entire feed is people openly calling for Guillotines and for rich people to be put against the wall.
I would say half of them have their real name attached to their account like me.
The 'moderation' is explicitly a Centrist phenomenon because they don't want anyone to know their ACTUAL politics

If your opinions are of the kind that don't get you mobbed you won't change your behavior to avoid being mobbed.
If they are if the kind that would get you mobbed, you don't voice them. This is true at online, at work, at the diner, when hanging out with your buds. That's behavior change.

With everything happening at CBS, I think rhetoric about supporting alt media can give us a false sense of control. We have to grasp the reality that news outlets have always been on the side of the institutions. What we’re seeing now is a logical outgrowth of the US’ political instability 1/

Under capitalism, mediocrity always rises to the top, because you have layers and layers of people opportunistically building their careers on the work of those at the bottom. From corporate to government to education, those with the most power are some of the dumbest, most incompetent folks around.
