You wouldn't dismantle the agency that protects consumers for corporate abuse and scams unless you wanted your rich buddies to be able to abuse and scam consumers.

Trump just said he has a mandate to eliminate wasteful spending.
He just gave Michael Bay $2 million of our tax money to make a "30-second video" that he will spend $8 million of our tax money to air. It's completely unnecessary.

SpaceX, which holds billions of dollars in government contracts, was penalized by the FAA for ignoring regulations. In response, Musk pushed for the resignation of the agency’s chairman.

BREAKING -- Trump says he's kicking undocumented immigrants out of Social Security.
One small problem, though -- undocumented immigrants are ALREADY ineligible for Social Security benefits.
You know, because they don't have Social Security numbers. Because they're undocumented.

The SAVE Act is systemic misogyny. It would disenfranchise tens of millions of women--those who changed their name after marriage but don't have either a birth certificate or a passport with their new legal name.
The House of Representatives is considering a bill that will lead to voter purges and widespread disenfranchisement of eligible voters.
The SAVE Act stems from baseless claims of voter fraud and is part of a strategic, well-financed effort to suppress voting.

The SAVE Act Would Disenfranchise Millions of Citizens
The SAVE Act would require all Americans to prove their citizenship with documentation unavailable to millions and upend the way every American citizen registers to vote.

Idgaf I’m still fighting for guaranteed healthcare.
Aspiration is the answer. Not just “we’re not the bad guys.”
We need something more meaningful than that. I want a future worth fighting for. They have no vision. We do. Lean into our strengths and knock them out. 👊🏽

At the end of the day it doesn't matter. Once a person become out of touch, they also become set in their ways. I doubt I'm going to convince someone sitting around on a rehash of a 19 year old platform mocking "kids these days" that the app was not "dancing children" or Chinese Propaganda. 2/3

I could write a 100 post long thread about everything I gained from TT. The ADHD community helping me figure out life, the journalists on the ground reporting on events in far away countries, the passionate creators encouraging me to learn new subjects that I never though I'd find interest in 1/2
