Our social security is going to be used to buy state run media

I honestly believe our most powerful position in a toxic time that feeds on cynicism, apathy,& despair is to genuinely care and act for a better world.

Cynicism is our enemy. We should check it, incl. on the left. It’s not intellectually superior. It’s the virus they’re trying to infect us with. NO

RFK Jr is saying that "autism is destroying our kids." Autism didn't destroy me, but ableism almost did, and eugenics/the mainstreaming of disinformation certainly threaten to.

Former Secretary of Transportation--who was not on The Real World or Road Rules--weighs in on the President's efforts to blame the fatal air traffic accident on DEI.

this is what "small government" is.

"big government" is preventing plane crashes and having the resources to respond to one when it happens.

"small government" is the guy from real world leading the response team while the president blames black people for plane crashes

act accordingly

Feeling "insulted and confused" is the point. I highly recommend folks revisit some of the secret speeches and recorded conversations with Russ Vought from a few months ago.

So camps.

As if stripping away access to vaccines weren’t bad enough, don’t forget that RFK Jr. also wants to come for our psychiatric and behavioral meds as a bonus 🫠

It’s eugenics all the way down

Check it out. He's good.

Kind, good, happy, gentlemanly, secure people never go Nazi. They may be the gentle philosopher whose name is in the Blue Book, or Bill from City College to whom democracy gave a chance to design airplanes-you'll never make Nazis out of them. But the frustrated and humiliated intellectual, the rich and scared speculator, the spoiled son, the labor tyrant, the fellow who has achieved success by smelling out the wind of success-they would all go Nazi in a crisis.

“Who goes Nazi” from 1941 harpers.org/archive/1941...

This. This is what overthrew the elite enslavers in the 1859s and the robber barons in the 1890s. We need these new papers everywhere.

It was good while it lasted, Target 😭

There are currently 67,102 studies registered at clinicaltrials.gov that are (well, were, probably, until this week) actively recruiting participants, and 20,690 studies that are active but not recruiting right now. This is SO many people we're talking about.

An easy way to resist is voting with your pockets. Pay attention to where you are buying from.

AOC: "I want folks at home to look at what members of Congress are invested in private prisons companies, and look at the votes on this bill. It is atrocious that people are lining their pockets with private prison profits in the name of a horrific tragedy."

What in the fucking fuck

Wow. Just wow. To read these words from David Maraniss. This is how bad things have gotten.

Bear with me for a second while I try to explain.
