I've personally never felt *more* represented by the Democratic party than when the two of them speak repeatedly about the deep-rooted issues plaguing average Americans (though, important to note Bernie is an independent).

While I can concede that speaking out for what they, and their constituents, believe in may have caused some divisiveness within the Democratic party, that's not to ignore the core issue. Which is that the Democratic party inherently has misalignments within it. And they are speaking to that.

... we're going to defend Israel's *right* to commit genocide and fund the entire operation. Yeah, we know we taught you to speak out against genocide. But if you're speaking out against Israel for committing genocide, and you're deportable, you're going to be deported."

Seems Musk is plainly laying his cards out for us all to see. What does an oligarch stand to gain from authoritarianism? Well, more power of course. Namely, the power to preserve said oligarchs position of grotesque control.

This was a... fun refresh on history lol.

The densest areas of support for the party are found in East Germany, formerly the German Democratic Republic. The authoritarian regime responsible for the building of the Berlin Wall, largely to prevent the onslaught of people fleeing to West Germany (R3).

We have the power to make this world better together, for everyone. 💖

Something that helps us all realize that, you know, the person next to us on the bus may not be so different from ourselves after all. And we owe it to each other to try to unite around that. In turn, using that as fuel to lift each other up collectively.

Do I have some grandiose vision of the impact of Temporal Commons as an individual entity? No. But I do believe I can share what I learn along the way (with reputable sources, of course) in a helpful manner while providing some food for inspiration.

A large part of what makes it meaningful to be an individual is finding where you slot into the world as a whole. And I find myself more and more impassioned to foster collective power while discovering the truth about things that intend to divide us.

And I think it's important to come at this from an individual lens. It can be so isolating, trying to make sense of the deluge of sensory information that is living within a society of 8 billion people. So I hope me sharing my personal wrangling with this can, in turn, help you feel less alone.

In fact, Tesla has received $2.8 billion in subsidies (+ $466 million in bailout).

Given that we DID hit 94% during the Second World War (according to the Bradford Tax Institute), it'd be nice to see something like that return.

Granted, we'd need a much more comprehensive tax system on how to tax on more than simply income. Higher sales tax for luxury goods, perhaps?

For those who may be unsure with what the role of an inspector general is (such as myself lol), according to Wikipedia, it's an oversight division that aims to prevent unlawful operations or mismanagement, such as fraud, abuse, and embezzlement.
