I can’t find the original post, but whoever said that every alternative lifestyle is 6000 years old and every traditional value was invented by 20th century advertisers was dead on.

the core idea that can radicalize people is so simple:

there is enough.

there is enough food to feed everyone. enough resources to house everyone. money and technology and medicine to stop the suffering of people around the globe.

once you accept that there's only one question:

why don't we?

What in the actual hell
I am not live posting the whole argument here because I want to listen closely to Trump v. Slaughter. But the solicitor general for Trump just said the point here in killing the independence of agencies like the FTC is that executive branch officers must “fear and obey” the president. Wow. #SCOTUS

WSJ: A vaccine panel at the CDC voted to end a recommendation that newborns be given a first dose of hepatitis B vaccine. Scientists have credited it with helping drive down rates of hepatitis B infection, which can lead to liver damage, cancer and death.

“When participants used ChatGPT to draft essays, brain scans revealed a 47% drop in neural connectivity across regions associated with memory, language, & critical reasoning.

Their brains worked less, but they felt just as engaged—a kind of metacognitive mirage.”🧪

Rand Paul tells me that he wants the full video of the Venezuelan boat strike released.

“And I think if the public sees images of people clinging to boat debris and being blown up, I think that there is a chance that finally, the public will get interested enough in this to stop this.”

look at my opposition party dawg
Senator Mark Kelly has seen the Trump admin's classified justification for the boat strikes and said they should be released to the public. Kelly can release the info himself due legislative immunity; but when asked if he would, did not respond to multiple requests for comment.

Groups of dudes who self-segregate & talk each other into believing that they are uniquely brilliant & everyone else just doesn't get it ... are responsible for some of history's most florid horrors.
It's kind of mind-blowing how these tech dorks think they're so smart and have the utmost confidence in their genius, while actual smart people are constantly doubting themselves and critiquing their own arguments.

Ms Rachel shared the trailer for the film The Voice of Hind Rajab on IG. The movie was released yesterday in France and arrives in US theatres Dec. 17, and in Canada Dec. 25.

This is a film that will deeply touch your heart, if you have a heart to touch ❤️💔

Holy shit. They can try to swing this however they want, but those numbers are *horrifying* for the midterms for Repubs. I love it.
We may have lost this battle, but after last night, it's clear we’re winning the war.

Because a swing of 13 pts to a progressive in a district this red says only one thing: no one is safe.

A reckoning is coming—one that will remove these Nazis and corporate hacks for good.

Organize. Resist. Vote.

The GOP can spin last night all they want as a "win", but a 13-point shift to the Dems in a +22 Trump district is making them shit enough bricks to rebuild the East Wing.

Chuck Schumer is a coward, a traitor, a liar, and a foe to the American people.

As such, I’m rooting for Van Hollen and co’s Fight Club to prevail, as should everyone else in the anti-Trump resistance. It’s our best hope at forming a real opposition party that’ll defeat the pedo-billionaire elite
