Figured I’d hop on here today for the 15th anniversary of the Affordable Care Act.
With everything going on right now, it’s easy to feel like regular folks can’t make a difference – but the ACA is a reminder that change is possible when we fight for progress.

As distressed as I am by what 47's actions mean in real time and the immediate future, the idea of what rebuilding institutions is going to look like *whenever* the US gets to the other side of this, with so much institutional knowledge being wiped out, is even more distressing.

Anyone want to bet that no one looks at the email responses that Musk asked for ?
It requires too much manpower and organization. Even w/AI
He will hold them in the event he has an interaction with someone.
If so, he can look up their response or lack of, and use it as cause for action.

The White House didn't say "stop teaching about the Tuskegee Airmen when you do US history." The White House said "stop doing DEI and wokeness," and the military interpreted it as "stop saying the Tuskegee Airmen were heroes, and maybe stop teaching about them altogether."
Yeah, that's bad.
Yeah, that's bad.
Here's the thing about the Tuskegee Airmen history - there was nothing in the EO about it. Someone in the Air Force interpreted it that way -- which is far worse.

This tweet is perfectly emblematic of how the far right takes class issues and turns them into race and culture issues to benefit their oligarch backers.
It's an applied demonstration of the upper left quadrant problem.

One of most powerful organizing stories.
Yet many people associate it with an isolated act by Rosa Parks, with no context of decades of frequent transportation protests; role of WPC; nor of Parks’ life of activism. ⬇️ 🧵

Elon Musk is fighting for a pay package all for himself that is worth $101 billion, a wee bit less than the $119 billion in healthcare funding he wants to deny millions of veterans.
Musk and Ramaswamy have already identified $516 billion in government savings. It includes DRAMATIC CUTS to Veterans Affairs health care, the National Institutes of Health, Head Start, the FBI, and many other vital programs.

Removing publishing time aiding misinformation… very on brand.
Twitter posts no longer have timestamps. That's exactly what you want on a network built on being a realtime information source. Possibly the worst to ever do it in social media
