There was no Biden-era decrease in wealth inquality, period. Stop.

The graph doesn't show poor workers earning more, it shows poor workers disappearing from the count.

It's a statistical mirage. The 10th percentile spiked because millions of the lowest-paid workers got wiped out of the dataset in 2020. If you delete the lowest rungs of a ladder, the ‘bottom’ suddenly looks higher.

(Apologies for the delayed reply; I don't check bsky enough)

Sure, I get it. But Fetterman was never even pretending to be as far left as Platner is, and years of candid message board posts show the development of a very radical (in a good way) progressive worldview. Posts which were part of the same wave of oppo leaks as the tattoo pics.

So, to be clear, you think this is what's happening?

Oh brother where art thou kinda did the yellow thing same year and matrix did a blue/green thing. Not to contradict just to complement your point that ya don't see it much since the, uh, fin de siecle

You honestly think there's any chance he's secretly a Nazi? For some reason playing an absurd long game tricking the left into supporting him rather than just, I dunno, joining the overt Nazis currently ascendant in US politics?

Sincere question: does anyone out there actually think Graham Platner is a secret Nazi who will pursue Nazi policies?

Maybe that incestuous AI/chip $$ cycle isn't a mere "bubble," but, rather, the ruling class is using funding from these hype cycles to establish a massive fascist surveillance and enforcement infrastructure, which will then be largely taken away from consumers and used only for corpo/gov control.

I mean what can you even say about a govt that pretends to accept a ceasefire, celebrates Trump for reaching it while urging he get the Nobel Peace Prize, and meanwhile just keeps slaughtering civilians. Utterly putrid behavior unbecoming of the civilized world.

They're going to have "AI" systems declared persons so they can frame resistance to the hype & harm of it as bigotry, and so they can charge people with murder when they inevitably start attacking data centers or whatever.

Democrats exist to protect Republicans from leftists.

Israel has no authority to control sea access to Gaza

Do we know who wrote the note?

It's cool how you can't call businesses on the phone now, but they still have phone numbers just to waste your time for a while.

Those in the munitions industry do not count as workers.

Ecocide, Imperialism and Palestine Liberation The devastation in Gaza is not just genocide but also ecocide - the intentional destruction of the ecology. Israel’s assault shows how settler-colonial violence is tied to environmental harm, and why…

It's not fascist to call fascists fascist.

It's not "dehumanizing" to say that terrorizing entire groups of people - which ICE does - is evil.

No executive order can change these facts.

However, people *can* mess things up for fascists by standing up for community and truth. Like this.

I'm beginning to think these aren't apples.

Approaching a million dead in Gaza. Send peacekeepers now. To Gaza, Sudan, Congo, Ukraine. Shut down arms and munitions manufacturing.

Wait. I'll older than these ghouls? Yikes.

Chuck Schumer is a Republican mole.

The argument is that a fee is a "restriction?“

Aren't those fees set by statute? Why does the media keep acting like presidents can unilaterally make or change laws?

🚨ACLED: 94% of Palestinians Killed Since March Are Civilians

New data from ACLED, the UN- and Western-backed conflict tracker, shows Israel’s post-ceasefire campaign in Gaza has produced one of the highest civilian death rates of the war, with roughly 15 civilians killed for every fighter.

My first day in the White House press pool would be my last day in the White House press pool.

⭕️ UPDATE: Director of Al-Shifa Hospital, Dr Mohammed Abu-Selmiya, writes that his house was bombed directly and at least 5 family members including his brother and several children were killed, and others injured:

"O Allah, we bear witness that we are satisfied. O Allah, accept my brother Majed...

Ah yes, let's imply that the person who raised the alarm is a secret pervert so we can enjoy the feeling of judging him rather than discussing the giant company innocently serving the sexualized images of kids its innocent algorithm innocently concluded would be "effective."
