Just a GenX w cross food allergies & chemical sensitivities making alt recipes, cleaning products, foraging medicine, being political & sharing ridiculous stories.
This. AND the fact that Labor Day in countries that won the wage & fair labor laws battles, use their Labor Days to protest the government and large corps.
Today is #EqualPayDay, and for the first time in 20 years, the gender pay gap has WIDENED.
Instead of fixing this injustice, the Trump administration has rolled back protections that help workers uncover pay discrimination.
Equal work deserves equal pay, period.

This has always been the GOP's strategy:
1) Cut taxes for the wealthy & corporations by claiming they'll pay for themselves.
2) Explode the deficit.
3) Demand cuts to vital programs that help millions.
4) Repeat.
Don't let them get away with it.

Meta raked in $8B thanks to Trump’s first tax cuts. It donated $1M to Trump’s inauguration.
Comcast got $6.6B. It donated $1M to his inauguration.
Bank of America got $24B in tax subsidies, and you guessed it, donated to Trump’s inauguration.
This is who Trump governs for.

To instrumentalize what my sister is saying below: every time someone says DEI say “you mean civil rights?” Every time someone says they are against woke reply “oh so you’re a segregationist!” Words have meaning! Don’t allow that nonsense to stand.
Only saying once on bsky b/c I know it is not entirely useful, but it is totally exhausting that in 2016 some of us said “they’re Nazis,” some of us screamed “they’re segregationists,” and a whole lot of very serious people now posting about them being Nazis and segregationists gaslight us for years
