Human rights are universal - if we start stripping away basic human rights from any section of society then none of us has rights – just privileges that can be taken away by people in power whenever they want

Some news: tomorrow at 9am, Ted Koppel + CBS Sunday Morning will air a two-part story on the devastating surge of full-time workers being pushed into homelessness.

I'll be interviewed along with two families from There Is No Place for Us. It would mean a lot if you'd watch and help spread the word.

We are entering a phase when it will be very important to not hand it to Marjorie Taylor Greene.
Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene: "I never thought that fighting to release the Epstein files, defending women who were victims of rape, and fighting to expose the web of rich powerful elites would have caused this, but here we are."

Really hate how the right has co-opted "socialism" so effectively to mean "anything that helps out your fellow citizens" that the American left has just adopted that definition, as well.

The ONLY question in response to anyone defending Gaetz should be "so are you also a pedophile? Or do you just support them?"
this story was sort of lost in the last few days of the epstein news but it’s wild how many republicans appear to be pedophiles or okay with pedophilia

Every decade, we hear "the kids can't read or write!"

Interventions that don't work are proposed. Those that do work are ignored: reducing class sizes, making kids & families feel safe at school and welcome, becoming a community resource.

When their expensive reform fails, they yell at us again.

NO NO NO.

ABSOLUTELY THE FUCK NOT.

KEEP IT AWAY FROM ME.
For real, check this out. Evil.

I also thought it was weird that the guy at the town christmas parade last year (who's two child daughters were wearing "daddy's home" trump shirts, with trump holding a belt on them) clearly wants Donald Trump to fuck his children.
I'm going to take Megyn Kelly at face value and assume she believes in equal application of social and legal standards toward all people.

Therefore I can say, hey Megyn, I think it's weird that you want grown adult men to fuck your own child.
When Megyn Kelly says it’s not a big deal if she’s 17, she’s not talking about her own daughter but about the underclass

Kids need space to go outside and BE KIDS. I don't mean parks or family event venues or whatever, I mean the street in front of their house. WITHOUT parents around. I want walkable NEIGHBORHOODS, I want SEVERE penalties on old fucks who call the cops on kids for existing near them.
"my least woke opinion is---"

That's enough. We've had enough people indulging in the "thrill of a little conservatism", as a treat. Of considering reactionary thought to be a salacious and taboo in a world descending into reactionary mania.

Give me your MOST woke opinions. We're bringing it back.

I recall talking with a friend in middle school who suggested there ought to be a wealth cap, and at the time the idea seemed totally insane to me. Looking back now I don't know WHY that seemed insane to me.
Once you reach a certain threshold of wealth your brain breaks, you completely disassociate from reality. Wealth cap should be mandated as a mental health protection.

A wealth tax designed to eliminate billionaires.

Absolutely ZERO tax breaks or credits on income (realized or not) above a certain threshold.

It's should be government's JOB to fill in the gaps where private enterprise fails or falls short. It's NOT government's job to make businesses profitable.

Seems like we're in a Sandy Hook moment.

We can enforce social taboos against pedophilia by shunning Epstein's friends & hangers-on, stripping them of social & political legitimacy; or we can shrug our collective shoulders, confuse legal and moral standards, and in the process weaken those taboos.

The attorney general and the FBI director, a manosphere podcaster bro, pulled into the situation room a member of Congress best known for getting kicked out of a Beetlejuice musical for drunkenly giving her date a handy, in order to pressure her about the president's child sex trafficking scandal.

It's a little silly how many US service members convert to Norse Paganism and then start growing a beard, but why on Earth that would be high on the list of your priorities as Secretary of Defense is beyond me. Go build an aircraft carrier or something.
Hegseth: "We don't need to be a military of beardos anymore. Do you know how many troops claim to be Nordic Pagan? No, suddenly it's become this real fake religious affiliation inside the Pentagon where troops came to be Nordic Pagan so they can grow a beard and nobody challenges them on it."

The way we discuss crime in this country is abysmal—media and pop-culture alike.

I don’t know how we fix it, but it makes ALL of us worse off.

Those in high-crime areas are denied the things that work bc of fearmongering over them.

And those who are safe are made needlessly miserable by fear.
