This Is so prevalent on BlueSky. Everything is a corporate exploitation story. There are so many productive observations that get stuck in the mental queue behind corporate exploitation. So much waste.
Just as you thought food delivery companies couldn't inflict any more misery on society:

Instead of using lowly-paid gig economy contractors to deliver groceries, they're replacing humans with robots, who, in turn, force humans off the pavement into road traffic.

This is like predicting the rise of Trump halfway through his first term.
Bari Weiss’s The Free Press (now part of corporate media) is pushing this Ad on Musk’s X. It portrays Peter Thiel as some sort of savant.

This is the same guy, you know, who has been giving lectures about the AntiChrist.

The “Free” Press is more like The Billionaire Press.

You do it how you think you need to comply with the law, up until a judge tells you how to do it to comply with the law.

Otherwise you are breaking the law.
The Trump administration is doing everything in its power to deny food assistance to Americans.

Wait, did they edit an interview? Did they not air every second?

I heard that’s grounds for a multimillion lawsuit
I see that CBS chose not to air this part. It probably explains much of what they did decide to air.

So very easily manipulable. Abuse this weakness if you believe in defending the constitution.
Last month, playing tape of Charlie Kirk's words was enough to get people fired for the new category of anti-Kirkist hate speech.

This month, playing tape of Ronald Reagan's words is enough to spark a presidential tantrum and diplomatic breakdown.

My first thought was “wow I hope this guy didn’t give out his name because he could absolutely be charged” and yup, he is correct to stay anonymous.

This man’s account is shocking. His neighbors’ situation is shocking. The entire Chicago raid is shocking.

"That's not what happened"
"Obama was a meanie too"
"Whoever was handling Biden was a meanie too"
"Those children weren't angels"
"This is acceptable"

Pick your fighter.
I don't think Trump is anywhere near the floor of his support considering the trajectory of the economy but there will always be the people for whom "marching naked children out of their homes at gunpoint" wasn't the final straw

This is the thing elected dems seem unable to swallow. There is no realistic modus vivendi where somehow remain a functioning liberal democracy after 3 years of Trump. He is removed or we become Azerbaijan. Removal is ultimately the only goal that matters.
The remedy for a president who both lies to your face and also expects you to make a deal with him is removal from office.

They want you to listen and to be afraid. That's their mission when they speak. So when they open their mouths is when to decline their attention seeking.

Today's speech by Donald Trump was not among the most dangerous ever given by a US public official. It was the most dangerous. And it's not even close.
American citizens in American cities are now the enemies of the state who should be "taken out."

But don't call him an authoritarian.
Trump to generals: "America is under invasion from within. We're under invasion from within. No different than a foreign enemy, but more difficult in any ways because they don't wear uniforms. At least when they're wearing a uniform you can take them out."

But it didn’t openly say that. And I think there’s an analogy here. These briefs claim power that would functionally end the constitutional order. But they’re dressed up as dictates of existing law.

In the vein of Brad Lander eating a hot dog on a roller coaster, this is A+ comedy.
Congress should pass the bipartisan BARK Act, my bill to save millions of pounds of perfectly good pet food from the trash and get it to the growing population of hungry shelter dogs and cats.

We can do this. Let’s get it done.

Your semi-regular reminder that @altnps.bsky.social is 100% pure LARPing BlueAnon grift that's unsourced theft of other reporting at best and active disinformation at worst and you should not give them a single bit of attention
I know a lot of folks like this account. But this is a wild, and unhelpful, exaggeration--it's a resistance version of sean spicer. It veers into #resistanceporn and trades accuracy for clout, like other "blue maga" grifters on here. Pls consider finding other sources of inspiration/news/motivation
