Never STFU. Never stop until a right-wing facist are all out any elected office. Trump is the sordid tip of this neo-Nazi iceberg.

In the 21st century, Capitalism is a failed business model‼️
“Under Capitalism, it’s normal to let people go hungry, let banks force people out of their homes, let sick people die for lack of healthcare.

But the idea that billionaires could be less rich - not poor, not struggling, just less rich - is considered insane.”

Replace "Remigration" with Decolonization and
Make America Great Again‼️
A reminder for those who are not aware: "remigration" is the process of deporting all non-white people from a country. It includes citizens and is, by definition, ethnic cleansing.

Old, Tired, Senile.

It would be helpful if we learned how to live so rewilding becomes unnecessary. Ounce of prevention better than pound of cure approach👇
🌱 New Research - "Rewilding is a nature-led strategy for ecosystem recovery. In our study we explored how academics, practitioners and young people view “rewilding” and how we can incorporate rewilding into current and future policy"
