"Please understand that the collective immune memory of the United States represents trillions of dollars in lost shareholder value which would be generated from treating preventable diseases. The measles vaccine is deeply anti-business."

Joy is not resistance, it is complaisance.

Leave Soos out of this!

Why fund the LAFD when you can pay the LAPD to arrest more homeless and make them fight fires for $2 a day?

Asking out of a sense of basic humanity.

Any reasonable person would conclude that intentionally increasing someone's risks while undertraining them would result in an injury. As a trainer and expert, Kirkendall cannot even plead that he's less aware of that than "any reasonable person." Hope they throw the book at him.

Shareholders will soon realize how easily unrepentantly greedy, incompetent, and self-serving CEOs could be replaced with AI. They're already middlemen relying on suites of consultants, experts, and underlings to do their work and make their decisions to distance themselves from accountability.

People keep saying the Thought Police are real but where tf are they when we actually need them?

Apparently it's only home-grown extremism when a white American threatens the Other. Speak too firmly to a health insurance company on the phone and you're Osama Bin Laden.

1. Identify product/service that creates value for consumers and creators: consumer pays less vs what they get, creator paid more vs what they do.
2. Buy + flip model to deliver value to stakeholders from consumers & creators: consumer pays more vs what they get, creator paid less vs what they do.

A deliberate attempt to re-write that it was not based on Free-Thought values.

Won't *somebody* think of all the value permanently injured children will generate for shareholders in the healthcare sector!?

Efforts to align the military with police for extrajudicial violence are doomed to fail. Hegseth's ilk think they're analogous enforcers of white Christian empire, but after decades of recruiting from the nation's disadvantaged the army and police are nothing alike.

A tariff war triggered the Great Depression and Argentina's tariffs pushed their peso to 700% inflation.

Crashes help the ultra rich who can survive 1000% inflation and still buy up assets for pennies when middle class owners sell to survive. Crashes reset the middle class to serfdom.
