Reluctant follower of politics and news. Not a fan of social media either! But I do like to know what's happening, and what people are doing about this crazy world. Life philosophy most closely aligns with Humanism.

Confirmed, the "Gaza peace deal" was the same deal offered to Netanyahu and the US repeatdly, but it was turned down by Israel because they wanted to gift Trump (Israeli asset) a perceived victory at the expense of the Israeli hostages and Gaza population.

Can we call it Trumpcare now?
At least stop calling it Obamacare (always an eye roll when I hear it).
“Affordable” Care Act just seems rude now too, so that isn’t so great either.

America needs a General Boycott until we have a new administration. Just stop spending ANY money at all and start saving and/or supporting any of the many people who need it instead. Unplug as much as possible from the economy. Use that time to learn who even deserves your dollars.

As many as 100 survivors of Jeffrey Epstein and other victims of sexual abuse are expected to attend a rally Wednesday in Washington, D.C. as a bipartisan Congressional effort gains steam to force the U.S. Department of Justice to make public its controversial files on the disgraced sex trafficker.

I guess if you're in a major city in a blue state, you have to start thinking about how you're going to successfully vote with the actual military attempting to prevent you.
Because that's why the military is being moved into cities right now. They're being pre-mobilized to prevent voting.

If you think we can change all the nonsense by voting, you're wrong. First, we have to change what they're doing to stop us from voting.

Over the next 15 months, we can expect a coordinated campaign — backed by the full power of the executive branch — to undermine confidence in our election system. Here’s what to expect, and how key actors can be ready to respond: bit.ly/4fRIqtA

Given a warning on Reddit about a comment I made suggesting ICE agents' masks should be pulled down as promoting violence. So that's where things are with that apparently.

Let's make this clear:
Just because we demand that our justice system continue to use DUE PROCESS does not mean that we support gangs or illegal activity.
But snatching people off the street and disappearing them without due process crosses the fucking line.
