I wrote about how the Trumplican court attack on net neutrality is about way more than just "net neutrality"

Trumplican 6th Circuit Just Killed Net Neutrality (And Whatever Was Left Of Pathetic U.S. Broadband Consumer Protection)

So, you may ask, why do I get so angry about the new liberal spin on RFK Jr, as in, "he gets some things right, so let's collaborate on those" or "we have to work with him because he has a huge following we need to reach"? Because I've seen this movie before. 1/

Trump’s team claimed that their tax cuts would boost household income by $4,000.
But research shows that the lowest paid workers saw no change in earnings. Meanwhile, exec salaries increased sharply.
Trump and Republicans want to double down on yet another trickle-down scam.

There's a very interesting SF novel by Harry Turtledove, Guns of the South, about white 20th century South Africans time-traveling to Civil War America to help out "guess which side" with weapons & tech. No idea what's made me think of that.

We've mostly forgotten about the moment that defines the Trump-Elon partnership: Trump's admiration for Elon's union busting. They love nothing more than underpaying Americans.

People feared the computer glitch would mean "the end of the world as we know it." Thankfully, Y2K didn't live up to the hype after years and billions of dollars were spent on painstaking preparation.
