It's unchartered, but we can see the terrain: the territory ahead includes masked secret police taking people to concentration camps but not new vaccines. That's our reward for a system in which fewer than 20 people, all of them deranged and malicious, control over $3 trillion.
The pace at which US wealth concentration is rising is simply staggering
The concentration of AI wealth into the hands of a few tech barons + plutocratic capture ==> unchartered territory

The House is voting today on the SAVE America Act that could exclude millions of eligible citizens from registering to vote if we don't have passports, access to our birth certificates, or if those documents don't reflect a name change.

The SAVE Act, the SAVE America Act, and MEGA Act could keep millions of eligible U.S. citizens from being able to vote. Urge Congress to reject these bills.

We all know that before 2016 any prominent person who shared that video would've been pressured into resigning their position and hounded out of public life. The only reason that doesn't happen now is because, these days, the people who would do the hounding -- the press, politicians -- are cowards.
