Unironically they should buy up the domains for about 60 defunct local newspapers in swing states. Hire two reporters to write almost exclusively about highschool sports and new restaurants opening with every 10th article about how the local GOP is screwing over people.
NEWS:
Democratic mega-donors are debating plans to spend tens of millions of dollars on a range of influencer plans to "find the liberal Rogan."
We've got pitch decks, investor meetings, and internal docs.
One Democrat has a spreadsheet of 26 different proposals.

This is Los Angeles.
Capitalism is humanity making war on itself in slow motion. The climate crisis is just one aspect of this catastrophe.
No solutions will come from corporations or politicians. We have to take action to defend each other and address the root causes.

I used to think that when global warming truly began to bite, deniers would face reality & we could act. Now I think it's more likely it will lead to a kind of fascism that will respond to global warming by, like, executing everyone who says global warming is real.

People think that societies that carried out mass atrocities were inherently evil when the harsh reality is that they are just like us given a certain set of conditions. That's what makes it so hard when you spot the patterns and everyone ignores it because their vanity won't allow them to see it.

The USA spends $4tn on Healthcare.
The Health Insurance companies made $1.39tn in profit last year.
That is 35% of your Health Insurance payments poured straight into their pockets.

Thinking of the parents of autistic kids who voted republican and are only now seeing what dissolving the Department of Education would mean for their kids.
Policy and regulation are pains in the ass, and sometimes very poorly conceived. But the are attempts to restrain something bad.

What is going on right now?! Did Swedish psych-rockers Dungen seriously just release an EP of Jungle/DnB bangers?!?
The EP is called “Otis” and it’s on bandcamp/spotify

All jokes aside it's really fucked up to see so many people on here celebrating murder. No one here is the judge of who deserves to live or die. That's the job of the AI algorithm the insurance company designed to maximise profits on your health and no one else

Things aren't complicated, we have very rich people doing very bad things to make huge profits that they don't need.
And that is about 99.9% of the evil in the world.
