I just voted NO on RFK Jr. to lead HHS. None of his empty promises could undo the harm his past statements have already had on people’s health. He’s a flip-flopper, a conspiracy peddler, and a danger to our country.
He’s driven by self-interest, not by protecting Americans.

I appreciate all the people recommending the Shock Doctrine. I've been thinking about what makes Trump's use of these tactics a little different.
In recent decades, shock tactics were used mainly to rapidly impose neoliberal economic policies. But what Trump is doing goes way beyond that.

Chaos and confusion. Somebody read @naomiaklein.bsky.social The Shock Doctrine as a manual, it seems. Time for people to read it again for countermeasures also.

the use and promotion of generative AI is anti-labour, anti-environment, and anti-human—it is impossible to make a genuine progressive statement with this technology

The assault on NIH is a test for how the national media covers the Trump admin: Trump is shutting down medical research!
That is easy to communicate. Will they treat it as a 5 alarm fire in a way that forces the government to respond, or will they downplay & caveat it?

What’s ethical social media use? Part of me, in these discussions about leaving meta stuff, sees the part of them wanting us to leave. Wanting us to disperse, so we don’t have “community” that we have on these apps. Not saying the community is actual.
