Another scammer... if you're going to try to convince people you live in America, make sure your telegram doesn't say you're calling from Nigeria...

Be aware folks... plenty of folks on here trying to prey on people. Quite a few attempted scammers, so keep your head on a swivel

Do you think that catfishing and identity fraud is a direct consequence of loneliness? I mean, as a guy, male loneliness is huge

We on the left have allowed right-wing cancer to grow. Instead of focusing on economic and societal progress, we have instead taken the bait of fascists and foregrounded culture wars. Instead of highlighting why we do things, we berate those who ask. In short, we haven't brought along everyone

I feel like US society feels more like Gotham or Star City than the hope of Metropolis. Its the environment where Green Arrows grow and Batmen flourish. I know they are comics, but where are those that take action against inequality, oppression and this modern fascism?

If it were me, I'd disconnect and delete the social media owned by the oligarchs. And bye Amazon. And never buy a Tesla

Looks like you got what a lot of people voted for. Time to close the borders and end the entanglements with a failing imperialist entity.
Good luck to those who will try to resist fascism, but you've got it now. Word to the wise... Try to move outside you bubbles and engage everyone. It helps

Happy New Year everyone... May 2025 be sane, safe and enjoyable, despite what politics will throw at our world.
Hopefully this is the year of positive change for our world

The AHA stands with our colleagues in Aotearoa New Zealand following the distressing news that the Marsden Fund will no longer fund HASS projects. We implore the government to reverse this decision. #history #marsdenfund #HASS #research

So after the "workplace structural adjustment" comes the office shuffle. Please hope I get one with natural light and a bit bigger...
That being said, I like my office. Its good for naps, if I could fit a nap couch into it

Had my first bot chat today trying to recruit me into the illuminati. So disappointed his account deleted after he told me about the millions that I would get by joining, but before he told me how I could get it.

I would love membership to a secret society. I would pull a lot of levers

I feel that, for our US friends, you need to kill the purity tests and unite around the candidate who is guaranteeing democracy continues, the democrat. Otherwise, you get what you deserve.
Good is not the enemy of perfect.

You can literally see CNN bending over backwards to avoid saying "fascism" when they describe Trump's speech as using "language condemned for its ties to White supremacist rhetoric"

FFS, he said immigrants are “poisoning the blood of our country.” That's the center square on the Fascist bingo card
What else can you call this but fascism? What would you say if you saw it in another country? www.cnn.com/2023/12/16/p...
