"Lazy" is a term capitalists use to describe anyone who (1) refuses to be exploited by them, or (2) refuses to join them in exploiting others.

I will never be a real-deal mathematician, comedian, or writer. I'm good but I'm not great. I'm not good enough to go pro at those. The only career I will ever have is making rich people richer. I'm not great at that either, but you don't need to be. There is a bottomless market for that.

Kinda hard to see a free and fair 2028 election where she doesn’t win by a lot.
AOC: How can anyone possibly make an objective vote on healthcare, energy, or war when their personal wealth is tied up in pharmaceutical, oil and gas, or defense company stock?

The Sopranos is probably the Rosetta Stone of modern American reaction: it consists of people who bemoan the loss of an imagined past they mainly got from movies, claim victimization based on identity but hate when others do it, and view the people who build the society they prey on as suckers.

When (some) people talk about bringing back manufacturing, they mean "bring back steel & auto jobs that someone can take right out of high school, and live a middle class life"
The worst part of this is that even if manufacturing jobs came back because of this (they won’t)
and even if Americans retooled for those jobs (they won’t) those jobs sucked! It’s like demanding to return to being a farming society. People fled that life the instant they could, in the millions!

I’m just going to say that AOC is the acting leader of the Democratic Party until someone proves otherwise. At least insofar as she is responding to the moment with leadership.

Trump’s proposal to strip birthright citizenship from those born in this nation is unconstitutional.

In Illinois, we follow the law.

This is only the start of attempts to undermine the rule of law, and Illinoisans can count on me to stand against unconstitutional actions.

When we see narratives that blame the most vulnerable people for problems caused by the most powerful, I think it’s important to remember that this viral spread of misinfo is a more pervasive version of what the powerful have always done to defend themselves, with tech they steered in this direction
