I’m thinking about federal income tax.

If the federal government isn’t meeting its obligations why should we?

Specifically, I’d love to see states get the money first and hold it in trust pending litigation. I want to pay my taxes but not to a government that doesn’t respect the constitution.

BREAKING: Donald trump is actually doing something GREAT, promising to crack down on overdraft fees and to BLOCK medical debt from being listed on credit reports! WOW!!!

LOL, just kidding. Actually, President Biden did all that stuff to help Americans, and trump wants to reverse it.

Fucking idiot.

I know we are all exhausted and there is a tendency to lay complacent and say let’s just let Trump give em what they voted for. We are tired. But Jimmy Carter never got tired even after many defeats. He never gave up fighting for humanity. I hope I can live up to his example.

We were seeing a 98% drop in exposure over on Twitter. The censorship was so extreme we thought it best to start over somewhere else. We chose Bluesky.

Our stance is clear: We don't hate people; we resist the divisive tactics of governments. It's the twisted actions of these institutions, neglecting the hardworking creators of resources, that we expose. Our commitment is to the people, prioritizing the voiceless and oppressed.

Dems have a golden opportunity to say something like

"No act of violence is tolerable or worth celebrating, but we need to highlight how working people feel exploited by a system that denies healthcare to enrich shareholders. Here's our plan to change it."

Is the DNC awake?
