Some better apology suggestions (besides just implementing DEI again)
*start selling “say no to fascism” merch front and center
*pressure legislators to impeach the president
*pressure Congress to take back control of tariffs (although this one is also in your own best interests)

Seeking to restore American power and prestige, and using the slogan "Make America Great Again", Jarret embarks on a crusade to cleanse America of non-Christian faiths. Slavery has resurfaced with advanced "shock collars" being used to control slaves. Virtual reality headsets known as "Dreamasks" are also popular since they enable wearers to escape their harsh reality.”
I realize I’m probably late to this party but I just finished “Parable of the Sower” by Octavia E. Butler and looked up “Parable of the Talents” and it is fucking creepy this was written in 1998…

Yeah sat around a table with a bunch of women that “just couldn’t give up Amazon” 🙄
Not only was giving up Amazon morally correct, it also saves me tons of $ on stupid things that no one actually needs…
And even some of us straight white people will walk…although i repeatedly find myself disappointed in how many people purport to have progressive views but are unwilling to slightly inconvenience themselves for those views.

However morons blew up the bridge instead of building a new lane.
Just more evidence they were totally justified in cutting off this toxic relationship with us…

Hate him with passion but the Mar 2020 ones would probably have been political party agnostic.
2018 & 2025 totally fair game and I wonder what else would crop up if we removed those?
Not fast enough though…
