They immediately pulled up potential lifeboats for those most in need. And not to call out any individuals, but there has been deafening silence from some people who had been quite vocal previously. (Harmit excluded, of course!)

Only institutions can generate outrage that matters. But mostly they think appeasement and putting their heads in the sand to fly under the radar are safer options. It’s sickening.

"A time of deep division".

Even when your funding is being cut by a lawless regime, you guys are obsessed with both-siding and false equivalence.

Division isn't the problem. Fascism is. Being divided against Fascists is good and important, actually.

To me, part of this is that these “billionaire geniuses” are so bought in to the myth of their own brilliance that their ego can’t acknowledge how they just happened to be standing next to a money making machine at the right moment in history, and that their contributions rest on the work of others.
