#Revolution
i see no historical parallels with other times the greed of the ruling class has created the exact material conditions which pressure working class people into open revolution.

don’t you feel free, citizen? isn’t this liberty? surely austerity is a sustainable way to maintain a society.

Revolution!

It’s as if no one remembers the French Revolution (among others).

There will be a revolution if Dems agree to this insanity. It's ridiculous. Maybe it's being floated to make their actual cave look better.
"A development that appeared to break the logjam: Republicans proposed that healthcare funding be provided directly to households rather than used to pay for a 1-year extension of ACA subsidies. That involves sending federal money into FSAs instead of insurance companies" www.wsj.com/politics/pol...
Republicans Pitch Alternative to ACA Extension to End Government Shutdown
A proposal by GOP senators to send money directly to consumers’ health accounts rather than to insurance companies showed signs of breaking a stalemate on negotiations.

This is exactly how the rich were acting right before the French Revolution

AND the Russian revolution

Pretty much before EVERY revolution

Time for pitchforks and torches at the gates is upon us

MoveOn, Indivisible, Our Revolution, and 6 Democrats have called on Chuck Schumer to step aside as leader.

So we asked all 40 Democratic senators who didn’t cave to Republicans if they still think Schumer is the right leader.

Here's what they said.

Furious Liberals Call for Schumer to Step Aside, Senate Dems Mostly Quiet
After their shutdown surrender, liberal lawmakers are begging their base to unite behind them anyway – as Trumpland celebrates that their opposition is a bunch of 'p*ssies.'

RIP America.

There are lessons to be learned from the French Revolution. The common people starving and overtaxed to feed the rich, the middle class stuck… it’s time to revolt against the monarchy.

it was really funny at the time to juxtapose marginal revolution posters saying "twitter is livelier than ever" with its actual numbers

The Revolution Will Not Be Televised... but the fuckin Trial better be.
We pay for the government. Every time they're evil or callous, that's your money going to fuck with people.

I don't want them to be careful or slow or cowardly, I want them to sell tickets to the trials.

I feel like the theme for this revolution will be "oh, fuck THIS shit to death"

Tonight’s vintage cover, PKD. ⚡️A dramatic way to say that revolution starts local, but ok. 😆

happy bday, one of my favs, Catholic reformer Dorothy Day, b.1897, NYC.

“The greatest challenge of the day is: how to bring about a revolution of the heart, a revolution which has to start with each one of us?”

“The final word is love.”

California has always been where the future happens first, from semiconductors to clean energy.

Now, with the launch of Quantum California at @ucberkeleyofficial.bsky.social, we’re leading the next revolution in quantum technology, innovation, and job creation for decades to come.

Ask people what changes were most significant during the 1960s and you usually hear about the counterculture and the sexual revolution. In reality the major change for many families was getting an indoor toilet.
It is genuinely hard for most people to grasp how poor the past was.
