Spotify has laid off thousands in recent years, while reportedly paying artists $0.003 per stream.

Spotify profits rose 28% in Q3. Its CEO is worth $9.8 billion. It's making money off ICE recruitment ads.

Don't you think it's time put a wrap on corporate greed and exploitation?

🫵 Lysenkoism!

Changing a few sentences won't change reality. Without robust vaccine and public health infrastructure, we're unequipped to handle the inevitable: more fatal, frequent, and far-ranging outbreaks of preventable disease that will go unaddressed by a HHS worshipping ideology > evidence.
CDC has overhauled its website to assert that “the claim ‘vaccines do not cause autism’ is not an evidence-based claim”

Mass trauma hurts people & communities. When we retreat into isolation to cope with our shared trauma
that’s when authoritarians move in.
They feed on disconnection and sell control as safety.

I feel this is important reading for today.

Mass Trauma and Authoritarian Capture
A crucial strategic trap that authoritarians deliberately set is to create trauma that drives people toward individualized responses precisely when collective action is most needed.

UPDATE: The administration is trying to FIRE federal workers who protect YOUR public lands, and they’re trying to push it through during the government shutdown. Federal labor unions are suing the government, and a federal judge agrees this is likely illegal. #NationalParks #RIF #shutdown
