I find it so almost irritatingly fitting that the richest, most miserable man on earth does not have a smile, either incapable or intentional, his mouth literally turns downward, the cheeks at the end of the lipline pointed downward. Like how many examples are there of how unhuman this man is.

The second amendment enshrines the state’s right to endorse, enforce, and sponsor terrorism. It may not say so explicitly, as no one apparently knows what the hell its saying explicitly, but that’s the effect, as we see play out every day. Terrorism is effectively armed and sponsored by the state.

I fear the only way to bring about universal healthcare will be either a nationwide general strike or a nationwide strike among members of the health care industry or walk outs at insurance companies. Something has to break. Someone has to break it.

One of the best threads ive read in a WHILE.
Rudolph gets all the love so let’s talk about the names of Santa’s other reindeer.
dasher | noun | one that dashes
dancer | noun | one that dances
prancer | noun | one that walks or moves in a spirited manner
Ok, those three are easy to understand.

It is incredible to me that the democratic party could not leverage the pure red hot unadulterated rage that millions of americans feel about their health care. This was an obviously winning issue across all demographics and they couldnt muster a single protest to their donor overlords. Shameful.

“Disgruntled” because its irrational and petty to be angry that people audaciously parade around making millions and millions by holding your life or the life of someone you love ransom.

“Speculation of motive,” of the murder of the chief executive of a multi-billion dollar revenue generation corporation that makes its money by directly intervening in the life-saving care of millions, by outsourcing that work to AI, & mere moments away from celebrating those crimes to shareholders.

Another perfect example of out-of-touch legacy media sanewashing late-stage capitalism with the gaslighting phrase: “we have no information on the motive of this heinous act,” sounding so unfathomably hollow while a collective consciousness unleashes its suppressed fury at the same singular villain.

“Don’t feed the trolls” also extends to bad opinion pieces in papers of record.
They run them bc people react to them the most.
If we stop linking to bad columns and instead post thinkers we find valuable (& generate convo around it), incentives change.
It’s not easy and takes constant practice!

Huge win from @franzanth.bsky.social creating a Content Scraper Blocklist: bsky.app/profile/cont...
It's a blocklist for the kinds of engagement bait accounts that repost stolen content, often with misleading captions.

If you list trumps proposals one by one, its a reverse engineering of the great depression.
No one knows the future - both what Trump will actually do, and what the effects will be - but it truly was the case that that Trump’s *explicit campaign promises* were to basically destroy the recovery.

Please, I beg you, do not fall into the trap of giving trump and his administration more intelligence and strategy than they possess. Trump is genuinely THAT BAD and you trying to provide some kind of hindsight “they meant to do that” is deluded. You are sanewashing for your own copium. Stop it!
Pam Bondi is horrible, so Trump/Putin had to stand her next to someone even more horrific to make her look acceptable. That person was sacrificial lamb, Matt Gaetz.
