Thank you! I’m a voter in your district, and I’m happy you are fighting for USAID.

In a way it’s good, because it implies they’ll come back if we can shift the locus of power.

But, yes, no excuse because they could quit instead of colluding with no risk to themselves. There was a safe and non-evil option available to all, but they’re too power hungry.

I think he’s going to try to use that data to target his enemies and get unfair competitive advantage for his businesses.

Kind of proving the point though? I’ve been to a ton of protests over the past decade; at best, they have led to short term promises quickly broken, at worst nothing. America protests a lot, at least where I am, and here we are.

I’ve lost faith in protest; I’m seeking other forms of resistance.

Gamers are accusing Elon Musk of cheating at popular video games by allegedly turning to loopholes and hiring better users to play for him “I don't see the reason to do this,” one Diablo IV gamer said, “because he's already famous—very famous.”

Now, apply the same logic to how he runs his companies:

I never used to like Gavin Newsom, but all the conservatives hating him has put him in my good books.

Yes, this is actually a common element of propaganda in democracy.

I think I read this in Jason Stanley’s “How Propaganda Works” but, unlike in open authoritarian regimes which tends to be direct, “democratic” regimes tend to have inverted propaganda, where they do the opposite of what they say.

At least if there are no insurers, people won’t be paying in to something falsely believing it will be there for them when they need it.

Like, what’s the point of insurance? Give them money, then still get left with nothing during an emergency?

You can never know for sure, but deadly wildfires are now sadly common in CA. For instance, one my friends and I were evacuated from a camp site because it was too dry, and it literally burned down the next day.

Dry conditions can cause many fires to happen at once; my personal guess is natural.

To be clear, they’re setting this up to commit atrocities to trans and other queer folk, because they call them pedophiles. They’re not talking about Gaetz, who actually does this.

So, honest question, what do we do about fake stuff here? Do we think OP still doesn’t know this is a fake screenshot? Do we think “fake stuff is OK if the vibes feel true?” Does bsky build a BirdWatch clone?

This is really good — it talks about, how we got many socialist protections under Covid, that evaporated afterwards leading to… now

Yeah, AOC made a good point that their only unifier is hating democrats/“owning the libs.” Without it, they don’t have much ideology — it’s why they can’t take the win. There’s nothing behind the curtain.

It does help me feel better, to see people who have been through worse and come out on top.

Hoping for the future

One thing I find interesting about the echo chamber complaint is that an echo chamber just won a presidential election.

Put aside the convo of whether it’s “good” or “bad” for a moment. The far right has devoted enormous resources + time to building echo chambers & loathes spaces they don’t control
