So glad I raised Gen Z kids…but this survey breaks my heart when I read that only 44% of Gen Z (males or females) voted in 2024. As a GenXer, I’ve never NOT voted since I turned 18.
In our annual 19th News/SurveyMonkey poll, we can look at results by generation and gender. One dynamic jumps out over and over: Gen Z women are the most liberal group in the country.
Gen Z women are the most liberal group in the country
On issues like abortion and gender-affirming care, women 28 and younger skew substantially more left than the national average.

The richest 0.1% of Americans control $22 trillion in wealth.

The bottom 50% control $3.8 trillion in wealth.

Read that back.

Folks, this is what oligarchy looks like.

It’s Election Day in Wisconsin and Florida! These races for the Wisconsin Supreme Court and Florida House will shape the future, and every single vote matters. Grab a friend, make a plan, and head to the polls!

Really feel like I’m losing my mind: government OBVIOUSLY cannot punish an individual law firm for hiring someone it disfavors! It’s ludicrously unconstitutional and I feel like without a day of law school I could argue the case. And yet the best paid lawyers in the country are folding?

That pretty well sums up the situation. It will be a miracle if they don’t get us all killed.
This is what happens when you have an entire cabinet full of folks who would NEVER pass a regular security clearance.

Led by a president who would never be able to pass one either.

The President "is dictating what words people are allowed to use, what educational institutions are allowed to teach...He is calling for critics...to be imprisoned and assaulted... threatening journalists, students, judges, lawyers, religious leaders, governors...This is what censorship looks like."

This framing of the political divide is quite accurate. I’m pro-democracy.
The biggest divide in America today is not between “right” and “left,” or between Republicans and Democrats. 

It’s between democracy and oligarchy. 

The old labels — “right” and “left” — prevent most people from noticing they’re being shafted. 

Know the truth.

All Trump does is ramble, tell a lie, and then say something racist, homophobic, or xenophobic.

Then, every Republican jumps to their feet and roars in applause.

This is what a dystopia looks like.

I’m with her. Still.

Please read this thread.
Trump is expected to declare English the nation's official language. America is an Italian word. California, Colorado, Nevada, Montana, and Florida are Spanish, and a bunch of other states have Indigenous names.

Musk is so personally and professionally compromised that Trump cannot get him a security clearance but he can and did just give him access to millions of Americans private information.

This message to senators and the rest of America was chilling. I’m glad she spoke up so forcefully. RFKJr is a “predator.”
Wow. Caroline Kennedy breaks her silence on RFK Jr in a message to Senators: “We grew up together. It’s no surprise that he keeps birds of prey as pets because Bobby himself is a predator. He enjoyed showing off by putting baby chickens & mice in a blender to feed to his hawks.”

I officially left Twitter by changing my profile & header pics to show my #Bluesky username. I downloaded my data, then deleted all of my tweets since 2009. (I have to keep an account but only to teach & do analytics research on social media platforms). Feels freeing but odd at the same time.

I like @profgalloway.com’s “we choose violence” diatribe at the end of today’s episode. . Just kidding. Sort of. But I completely agree with choosing to push back on key issues like @aoc.bsky.social
