Modern digital autocracy and old world autocratic erasure are more similar then not. They just use updated methods.

If you want to be a good ally to trans and nonbinary people, please try to scrub the phrase "identifies as" from your vocabulary. It implies a degree of imitation, like "we know you aren't REALLY what you say you are, but we should all just play along", which is really condescending.

Selling Tesla stock is the most impactful of these. Pretty much all of Musk's wealth is tied to Tesla's stock price and flooding the market with sell orders drives the price down. The biggest holder is Vanguard, who may manage your 401k, so shift out of any fund that holds it and tell them why.

Trump doesn't seem to think of tariffs as an economic tool, but rather as a way to force other governments to do what he wants.
This is why I don't think we'll get a big tariff on Chinese products...Trump needs them to approve the sale of TikTok.

It's good that there's a 25% tarriff on imported coffee now. This will incentivize people to purchase American coffee, grown in the New Jersey coffee forests

Was trying to remember why I had mentally bookmarked him and it was because last summer Colombian tabloids spread a rumor he was having an affair with Linda Yepes, a transgender newscaster. Not only did he refuse to deny it but decried transphobia as akin to Nazism
