We are on the brink of losing Medicaid and Social Security and the US Postal Service among other rights.
We are not reacting strongly enough.
Not the media.
Not businesses.
Not the defense institutions.
SNL was funny last night but folks this is no damn joke.
This is deadly serious.
Keep fighting

Where are you?
Is it *the WEEKEND* for *you*(??)
We don’t have the luxury of a restful weekend, much less a lucrative BOOK Tour.
DO SOMETHING!
🆘
Here’s looking at you @lanana421.bsky.social
This of course defeats the ability of any user on the list from engaging our representatives, if we are muted in masse. Censoring ourselves. Brilliant.

THAT WAS A complete set up...I am Ashamed To be an American.
Write once, then copy and paste
Think about our societal layers & filters that allowed him to pass unchecked and nobody bothered to say "Hi Trump you are a moron". It stops here and now for you.
What kind of societies are we living in?...
A society that elevated wealthy over personal integrity and an idea of the common good. Started mostly in 1980 Reagan/Thatcher demonizing government & trades unions.
The Jerry Springerization of media normalizing coarsesness & stupidity. Offshoring bluecollar jobs to enrich Wall St.
-Key is accessible higher education to broader masses, so people don't reason along the lines of Donald Duck & can more easily discern demagoguery
-America had outsourced manufacturing ON PURPOSE for cheaper labour. Now it wants it back. This was a deliberate move. Blaming others is crap.
and I think we need a shadow government stood up and a parallel worker-owned cooperative economic structure that withholds our labor and dollars from the corporate system over time as it collapses we need to build local communal strength.
Individually we do what we can how and where we can and maybe we'll get more methods and tools. Things reach a tipping point in civil rights movements. We haven't got there yet.
PUNCH THEM IN THE THROAT
I still couldn't laugh.
I cried.

We have weak worker protections, a paltry amount of PTO and most people aren’t able to afford to just not work for even a day or two.
For many people, asking them to “go out and protest” is asking their families to go hungry, bills unpaid and possibly losing their jobs.
Bernie, AOC, Jasmine Crockett, a few others.
I think we need some of the largest donors/wealthy business leaders to step up and away from the oligarchy to stand with the people.
We are in alignment here.
