This is me essentially, i’m watching how the β€˜colosseum’ is being used to erode democracy globally. I funnel engagement towards people like you who have the integrity to call it out.

This is why Musk did it despite pretending afterwards this is all left-wing hysteria. Watch Tate’s video where he suggests bringing the salute back. He claims to want to do it to troll, but his real aim to is help establish a permission structure for more.

The Dairy-Political Complex Is Birthing A Flu Pandemic The United States has a 1.4 billion pound national stockpile of cheese.

America has a 1.4 billion pound national cheese stockpile that both Obama and Trump added to with massive bulk buys to keep a failing dairy industry happy, if you're wondering why nothing is being done to stop the spread of bird flu on American dairy farms www.donotpanic.news/p/the-dairy-...

It is awful to think of what could have happened here had the flyover collapsed.

It exposes the impact of short term thinking and austerity economics on both transport policy and safety.

Lots of questions to be asked.

People know their doctors are struggling with the system as much as they are and (rightly) don’t blame them. It’s clear where the problem is when, for instance, your doctor’s office manager tells you they’ll resubmit your request for an MRI because insurance always denies it the first time.

90% of Americans blame corporate executives for problems in the healthcare system.
Majority of respondents in all groups.
Harris voters: 95% blame executives.
Trump voters: 92% blame executives.

That is astonishing.

There has to be more amplification of genuine, working class voices so the real hope and real change our communities so desperately need can be realised.
If you’re interested in making genuine change happen with and for your local community by standing for local election, drop me a message πŸ’š

Who Will Speak For The Animals? Wild animal populations are in free-fall, the average population size now nearly 75% smaller than just fifty years ago.

Wild animal populations, on land and at sea, are collapsing. Species which existed on this Earth for millions of years are no more. It is a moral abomination for one species to seal the fate of millions of others. We need to fix it. My latest: www.donotpanic.news/p/who-will-s...

Social media has become a useful tool for the extremely wealthy to influence the working poor that their lack of finances is due to the disabled on benefits and illegal immigrants stealing their job/claiming money. But they are too busy/tired or lazy to look into the real issues why they’re poor.

Social Media is co-opted to exploit this and drive news agendas, keepfolk anxious and uncertain. Stir up shit, muddy everything, so why change anything?

It's a tool, used and played expertly to kee folk slightly off-kilter and make it easier for bad actors to win and maintain power asymmetrically.

In regards disinformation. What influence if any do social media platforms on people’s behaviours in your opinion?

Feel free to give examples if you wish.

It’s out of order considering β€˜vax and relax’ they appear to be promoting and I cannot get the vaccine I want. I’ll let you know same way if I hear anything regarding the EU.
