Why can't we just "love thy neighbor." Where did all the hate for these people come from?

Why, just what is the purpose of destroying this.
If nothing can be done in America to stop the US government from destroying America's leadership in science and technology then the EU and UK need to be pragmatic about seizing European strategic opportunities that emerge through American decline.

GOP raising the deficit as usual.
Adding $2.5 trillion to federal debt, gutting Medicaid and health care, trashing Meals on Wheels, Head Start and SNAP, and cutting a giant tax break to benefit the wealthiest people and corporations. Trump could not be offering us a worse program.

GOP tax bill on track to add more than $2.5 trillion to U.S. deficit
The figure is expected to intensify a national debate over spending and tax levels as President Donald Trump tries to push the legislation through Congress.

This is insane this Ice deportation system. Pure evil.
House & Senate Democrats walk off the floor in protest as ICE Czar Tom Homan begins to speak. Members held names of legal residents and students who have been disappeared by Homan and ICE.

Like a story out of Russia. Is this what Republicans want to become?
ICE stripped a German green card holder naked, drove him from Boston to Vermont to Rhode Island, put him in a cold shower, deprived him of medication, sleep and food until he collapsed.

No one knows why he was detained.
Green card holder from New Hampshire 'interrogated' at Logan Airport, detained
Fabian Schmidt’s family said they are unsure of why he is being held. They said he has a recently renewed green card, and no active issues in court.

“It’s what President Trump has asked for." Republicans are gearing up to adopt a budget that would statutorily increase the debt. But they say that’s fine as long as it’s for tax cuts.

?? It’s no mystery where the money goes; this has been asked and answered.

70-75% of US spending is on Social Security, Medicare/Medicaid, Pentagon and veterans + interest on the debt.

Foreign aid is 1% of the budget.

You can read this in a CBO or OMB report! Easily available.

Interesting take, hope this isn't our new world.
I think I've found a way to articulate what bothers me about the trajectory of the modern tech industry (and to some extent... society).

We are on this Earth to provide for each other. That's the "mission" of humanity as I see it.

This is incompatible with what the tech industry seeks to do.

"This is what he said, but this is not true." His lies need to be pointed out every time he speaks.
"Press opportunities are a farce. If you try to get an autocrat to give you good answers and hold them accountable for their policies or actions, they’re going to use all the strategies they have at their disposal to not do that. Reporters are left with, 'This is what he said, but this is not true'"
The "cognitively irresponsible" presidency
"It's a giveaway that a leader is an authoritarian," Jen Mercieca tells us.

Schiff: These are the people that Donald Trump pardoned, that he celebrated because they showed loyalty to him. And in Trump's world, nothing else matters. In order to carry out this plunder of the treasury.. he must have a loyal cadre to do even the most violent acts in his service.

Yes scientists and doctors can get it right !
I was skeptical at first, but Bluesky really is a fantastic platform for scientists who want to engage in broader public conversations.
