God bless you, Madame

Every $1 invested in SNAP generates $1.80 in local economic activity. Without SNAP, that will mean a loss of $15 billion to the US economy just in November alone.

AOC: "It's not just that Trump is corrupt. It's that everyone participating in this is corrupt. Elon is corrupt. Jeff Bezos is corrupt. Mark Zuckerberg is corrupt."

"They don't plan on being reelected."

Yeah, they don't plan on fucking anything at all.

🎃 Happy Halloween week, everyone! 🎃

Just like previous years, I'm going to be posting a picture every day leading up to Halloween! This year's theme is witches! 🧹

"i think i might be a sadist how do i explore this without feeling evil."

the first step is reveling in the fact that you are evil. the second step is understanding that as a sadist, you have been given a divine path

The Republican party has been coming apart slowly and then all at once since Bush II, in my estimation.

They've never actually recovered from the fractiousness of the 90s which opened the path for Bill Clinton.

The business wing and the bigot wing are tearing each other apart.

being convinced that the wheels can never come off is exactly the kind of mentality needed to get the wheels to come off in a society as wealthy and developed as the united states

personally I take great solace from trying to stick to a “if I die it’ll be with my teeth in their throats” kinda approach to life

Contrary to Disco Elysium, it is masculinity that is bourgeois.

the next democratic president should refer a significant portion of the current administration to The Hague for crimes against humanity

its really awful to contemplate the people that we’ve starved through USAID cuts and the people we are about to starve when SNAP benefits stop.

It takes someone extremely gullible and outright refusing to acknowledge the present state of this country to believe a mass dispossession, largely being fenced through DHS agents, is not currently underway. a lot of ICE and CBP wives have new gold jewelry and rings this year that they didn’t before

Bill Ackman is losing it on twitter

letting SNAP expire right before thanksgiving and right as health care premiums skyrocket, on paper, seems like the kind of thing destined to be the downfall of a regime, setting aside that it’s gonna be a very thin christmas for a lot of people because of tariffs

this was why we so desperately needed moderate, centrist, normie men to go to the mat for woke. so they could credibly talk down the ones turning to authoritarianism over it. instead, in vast numbers, they spread the hysteria

100% this and it was because they hated pronouns and calling women people more than they ever cared about free markets—or freedom

I think the theory that there is now a consumer class consciousness rather than a working class consciousness is basically descriptively correct, and also that this is very, very, very bad.

Screenshot of headline reading: Measles spreading beyond the center of the Utah-Arizona outbreak Cases are now popping up in more touristy areas of Utah, according to a health official.

Measles was declared eliminated in the United States in 2000.

RFK Jr. must resign.

there is no infrastructure that can be built up in a few days’ time to replace SNAP and you all simply must let that sink in, fast

Elon Musk has so much money that he can buy anything with a price denominated in "money". this means that further profits have no power to incentivize him and that the only thing that he can do with his money is lobby to be able to buy more things (that is: destroy liberalism)

one of the things I have come to believe is that the failure state of capitalism is not exactly the material phenomenon Marx describes so much as a kind of nihilism that comes from having enough money to buy anything you are legally permitted to purchase

i am begging people to look at a federal budget

Basically the punishment should just be a newfound hesitancy to spend political capital on their behalf.

In my view.

This isn't a friend-enemy thing so much as it is a swing voter thing, I think these people in these unions are heavily cross-pressured.

Just have to be more afraid of Republicans.

I think we can try to apply more soft pressure to these masculinist unions specifically insofar as basically leaving to hand out for them, not trying to actively punish them for betrayal - just kinda pointedly propagandizing that it was Trumpism and not us that has been injuring them.

Part of convincing voters that you're pro-worker is asserting over the cries of bigots that restricting immigration is illegitimate coward shit, and it's pro-boss policy.

Part of asserting a pro-labor platform is pointing out xenophobic policy as shortsighted xenophobic policy.

I dunno about that, but we could probably recalculate how much we're willing to commit towards negotiations, if they're unwilling to help maintain a progressive pro-labor line internally.

This is the power of decades of conservative media setting the agenda for national discourse while the rest of legacy media busily lusts for their profit margins
