there’s a thread on reddit right now called “was COVID really that bad?” and it is interesting to read people’s accounts five years out
there seems to be a collective trauma response where people (outside of healthcare workers) don’t remember how many people died
someone called it anticlimactic

Both of the co-founders of Turning Point USA died from things that were preventable, but which they mocked and urged this nation to ignore. Bill Montgomery was killed in 2020 by COVID and Charlie Kirk was killed in 2025 by gun violence.

“Useless” and comments of course are turned off. I don’t think anyone of serious thought has ever said taxing the rich at appropriate levels would solve “all” issues. Typical straw man argument - take the other side to extremes in order to portray it as just that - extreme.

Michelle Obama: Kids should have nutritious meals.
The pro-life party: This is an outrage!

It’s important to know that a lot of productive activity is happening in person and offline, too.
Not all of it can be broadcast online, but we’ve had hundreds of people showing up to our trainings, mobilizations, and more.
Keep going. Tyranny is eroded by a sea of small acts. Everything matters.

To paraphrase Musk, Maga is about to "F Itself in the Face" by going after undocumented immigrants.
The undocumented differ from Trump in 3 ways:
1) They pay taxes
2) They help the economy
3) Foreign-born individuals commit fewer crimes than native-born folks like Trump, who's a criminal

Members of congress should make minimum wage too. If minimum wage is $7.25 that’s what they make.
Paying them 24/7 365 at $7.25 would equal $63,510 a year.
They want to make $174,000 a year then they would have to raise minimum wage to $19.87/hr.
Paying them 24/7 365 at $7.25 would equal $63,510 a year.

It’s cool. We are all alcoholics and adulterers here in the Senate.
Markwayne Mullin: "Senator Kaine, or I guess I better use the senator from Virginia, starts bringing up the fact that 'what if you showed up drunk to your job?' How many senators have shown up drunk to vote at night? ... how many senators have gotten a divorce for cheating?"

John Kennedy, George W. Bush, Barack Obama, Mitt Romney, Ronald Reagan , Joe Biden, and Jimmy Carter all referred to America as “a nation of immigrants.” Donald Trump said, “immigrants are poisoning the blood of our country.”

The word asylum. Trump has no clue. It is embarrassing. Immigrants seeking asylum and the outdated label lunatic asylum are two different things. Trump says migrants are coming from mental hospitals - no proof. This leads to Hannibal Lecter. It is a right for people to apply for asylum in America.
