I’ve been making this argument for decades.
Societies don’t form around the teamwork and resources needed to simply make unleavened bread, but alcohol on the other hand….
Great to see :-)

Now, this sounds like a really fascinating cross-cultural study on the role #alcohol (and its consumption) may have had on the evolution of complex human #societies:

"Students in the treatment group [getting $50 a week in UBI] attended 1.23 more days of school, and spent close to half their funds on essentials like food and groceries... One 12th grader in a survey mentioned using the money to feed their siblings."
The UBI also improved their financial literacy.

$50 a week for 40 weeks: How no-strings cash changed the lives of teens • Louisiana Illuminator

NEW: Kilmar Abrego Garcia’s lawyers seek permission to file an amended complaint in his civil case in Maryland.
Among other things, the amended complaint “includes Abrego Garcia's first-hand account of torture and mistreatment at CECOT…”

Alright last thing before I go for the evening. If you want an example of what fascists do to non violent protestors go read about white rose and Sophie Scholl who was beheaded by the Nazis for distributing pamphlets against them. Nazis do not need pretext to do you harm.

Fascism’s core is violence.
Fascists will use violence when and where they please with zero provocation. It’s really clear you don’t understand this.They will use violence no matter what you do they do not need pretext. Fascisms core is violence because they see it as a sacred ritual.
Nonviolence alone will not stop a fascists

Marines do two things REALLY well. We fuck the place up and make people unalive.
That's what we do.
To send Marines into LA for "riot control" is one of the dumbest shortsighted fucking things I've honestly ever seen in my life.
This bullshit needs to stop.
