Finally, the Democrats Call Trump the F-Word After months of talking around the obvious, the Democrats have realized that it might be a good idea to call a fascist a fascist.

They finally fucking caught on. Only took em 8 years to catch up with the rest of us.

I don’t understand these politicians coming out and saying how fascist Trumpstein is. Where were you 8 fucking years ago or 4 years ago, or 2 years ago? We’ve been saying this shit for years. And now you’ve finally figured it out you want some type of credit??!! GTFO

AI's Productivity Boom Is Real. The Prosperity Part Isn't. A record share of unemployed Americans hold bachelor's degrees. Productivity is surging. Both facts are true at once, and a viral thought experiment from Citrini Research just showed what happens when

"BLS data from Q3 2025 showed nonfarm labor productivity jumping 4.9% while hours worked barely moved at 0.5%. Output grew nearly ten times faster than the labor behind it. That combination is textbook technological displacement in its early phase."

We need to get UBI into place NOW.

notorious radical left communist rag says tax the rich

“Tough talk” by Dems calling Christian Nationalists fascists and ICE the gestapo is a day late and a dollar short. Where was this talk in 2016/17? The writing on the wall was pretty clear. Then change candidates in 2024 in the middle of one of the most significant elections ever? #notgoodenough

At the Munich Security Conference this weekend, I told a hard truth. There is no ceasefire in Gaza. The assault continues. Palestinians continue to die. And Trump is issuing glossy brochures about fake future Gaza real estate deals instead of working to end the war.

If this country was truly “pro-life,” we would have Medicare for All, a Green New Deal, gun reform, universal child care, and a living wage.

The right-wing agenda isn’t about “life.”

It’s about control.

Democrats Block DHS Funding Ahead Of Partial Government Shutdown “Americans are crystal clear on how they feel about ICE – the status quo cannot continue,” Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) said Thursday.

This is the type of garbage that drives me nuts. Americans have been pretty fucking clear over the last 14 months that military and paramilitary organizations have no place being deployed in our cities.

I guess the letters I sent to my Cong. reps went unread.

2/3 Apparently, the letters I sent my representatives didn't reach anyone in the Dem. party with any real authority. Things like this are precisely why I've been a registered independent for approximately the last 20 years.

Running as an independent/unaffiliated candidate In Connecticut’s First Congress. Dist. Objective: Discussion of policies that are actually radical and actually to the left: UBI, turning the means of production over to the workers, income tax resistance, nationalizing or break up of mega tech., etc.

Trump claims Alex Pretti’s "stock has gone way down" after new video The president called Pretti an "agitator" after newly surfaced video showed him kicking an officer's car.

If these ICE agents are so delicate they have to murder anyone who disrespects them, they wouldn’t last a day as a middle school teacher. All their students would be dead. I had a student try to stab a staff member. But I didn’t fucking shoot him! #smowflake #iceflakes

I’m going to attempt to enter the Conn. First Congressional Race as an unaffiliated candidate. I submit they have both failed us. Further, true progressivism no longer exists. If you look at TD Roosevelt’s policy positions in the Bull Moose Party in 1912. It’s farther left than Bernie,AOC, etc.

Sometimes taking a shower and getting dressed is like climbing Mount Everest. There’s a reason my wardrobe is mainly sweat pants and a hoodie.

Getting Dressed Changes to clothing and the dressing routine you can make to reduce frustration.

We'll start off with an easy one. He was possibly the smartest human ever to have lived, and he taught us that everything is relative.

I've had requests to continue my "guess the pacifist" quiz. There is an easy one down below. Here is another: Most schools teach her biography (minus mention of her political views). She is a celebrated disability rights advocate. Despite not being able to see or hear, she was a prolific writer.

There's an easy one posted below.
