Also in addition to the revenge porn (which should be enough for people to leave), Grok is also just straight up making csam, which even Grok is admitting to

Staying on twitter is exposing you to personal safety risks, increased doxxing incidents, Neo-Nazi rhetoric, and apparently now CSAM

"Why does the United States support Israel?"

A report in October noted that the most recent time Israel violated the ceasefire, the stock prices of RTX, Lockheed Martin, and Boeing each jumped by at least 1.8%.

THAT'S WHY.

Guess who knocked over a jar of instant coffee into a cup of real coffee and now must drink the slug of a week’s worth of caffeine to avoid waste?

I’m over here gagging and heaving as I get through it but I would rather die than generate waste

It is critical to note how Atlanta Democrats subverted voter will by backing Cop City. Local activists discussed the problem with Angela Davis at the time.

EXCLUSIVE: @laurenweberhp.bsky.social & I have spent the last year collecting school+county-level vaccination data from across the US and found that only about 28% of counties now have herd immunity for kindergartners from measles—that leaves about 5.2mn kids unprotected.

U.S. vaccination rates are plunging. Look up where your school stands.
Take a look to see what the kindergarten measles vaccination rates are in your area.

Bush/Cheney oversaw a huge trend in democratic backsliding. Bush/Cheney was a major sledgehammer to US democracy

There’s countless literature on the subject. Bush, Bush Republicans (even the Never Trumps), and the bipartisan Bush era Dems caused this era to even exist.

I’ll post reading recs below
