can’t abide fascists - gotta fight them - gotta find and work with allies
In 1920’s and 30’s the Italian Liberals knew the stakes, they saw Mussolini coming, they tried to build a consolidated opposition, and they failed.
Hope America has more success.

She’s belonged to groups described as β€œneo-fascist” - doesn’t appear to be admirable.

A prescient doctoral thesis written by a former colleague, the late Luigi D’Alonzo. It discusses the β€œ...Death of Liberal Italy…” leading to the rise of Mussolini.
I claim no scholarly expertise in this area.

So, make it even more clear. See about targeting your message to each district.
β€œIf Republicans…..You Will Pay More"
β€œHere’s what it looks like”
then your graphic.

ugh! Another example of useless AI crap that wastes energy, pollutes, and contributes to climate change. Trading off clean air and water for speedier marketing.

Good to see clerics stepping up. As American priest Daniel Berrigan said... "Our apologies, good friends, for the fracture of good order, for the burning of paper instead of children, the angering of the orderlies in the front parlor of the charnel house. We could not, so help us God, do otherwise."

Important to keep pointing this out. Unregulated AI is funding unregulated carbon and nuclear expansion under the big lie that we need more carbon and nukes to heat and light our homes. Clean air and water are more important than AI β€œfactories” and speedier online marketing.

OpenAI asked US to approve energy-guzzling 5GW data centers, report says OpenAI stokes China fears to woo US approvals for huge data centers, report says.

It seems that AI β€œfactories” are and will continue to be significant contributors to climate change. arstechnica.com/tech-policy/...

Bluesky claims to respect copyright but they don’t really, so do what you can to protect your words and pictures because Bluesky is not on your side in that regard.
Here’s an excerpt from their most recent boilerplate around copyright.

Good idea. Be sure to dump it out and replace daily to avoid it becoming a home for mosquito larvae.

It also probably comes down to staying sharp, regular lubrication and maintaining a clean undercarriage.

NYC Comptroller Brad Lander was just arrested by Trump’s ICE agents because he asked to see a judicial warrant.

This is fascism and all New Yorkers must speak in one voice. Release him now.

I wonder if CNN will have the courage not to broadcast Trump’s Soviet style parade. Of course they need a camera there in case something unusual happens, but there’s no need to live-stream it all day while they tsk tsk about Trump’s ego. Even if it’s covered nobody is being forced to watch…yet.
