Who are these 'clever' they speak of?

Well, then who will do all the slave labor? Somebody didn't think this through.

The mildest of yellow journalism is still piss.

alex.vitreous.rocks•40 days ago

It's been out there for years.

blandphilosophy.bsky.social•40 days ago

Yep. It's important to call it what it is.

It took NPR three years from the start of the first dump administration to explicitly use the term White Supremacy. Maybe the media will catch up with this one sooner? Maybe they’ve learned their lessons?

Impeach. Remove. Imprison. We should be calling for it every day. Impeach. Remove. Imprison. He has capitulated to the enemy. Impeach. Remove. Imprison. He manipulated the stock market to make the rich richer. Impeach. Remove. Imprison. He is kidnapping American citizens. Impeach. Remove. Imprison.

Eugenics and racism are the best of bed fellows.

I have been saying this about the RW provincial governments in Canada
It's their goal, beyond a shadow of a doubt
Hope I survive long enough to see people wake up to this
Also, I love your memoir!
Had my library bring it in, and it was worth the wait!

Jesus. Had not connected those dots but impossible to unsee now. May something have mercy on our deranged nation and its most vulnerable victims.

MAGA too dumb to realize they will be the first to go..

Disgusting and evil to the core. How rich of a former heroine addict, who isn’t a doctor, now telling us what’s best for our health. Let’s be real, that conspiracy theorist failed forward thanks to the affirmative action of his last name and generational wealth. He’s mediocre at best.

Humans who believe they are superior to others are actually the intellectual and spiritual inferior of those who understand we all belong to each other. They need to be stopped and they need help.

Wait till the rich realize the poor they let die can't be in the labor force at low wages.....

sylalexasha.bsky.social•40 days ago

I've had a theory for a while that they are trying to eradicate the poor and low middle class and below and those firmly in middle class are the new working class

jshepherdguitar.bsky.social•39 days ago

I’ve got a theory that they want to kill them before their work is completely replaced by machines. If society doesn’t have to take care of people, the rich people in control take more money.

The Guardian, true journalists!!

Autogenocide

Yep.

They always try to tell the story from it being the fault of the poors that they can’t afford better food or to just live in a better neighborhood as if all things are equal. We all know they are only equal for white men of privilege.

An excellent report by the Guardian

Never forget that Trump cabinet is full of millionaires and some of his major donors are billionaires.

leopardonparade.bsky.social•40 days ago

I’m sorry, Wajahat, I love you, but this article is a hot mess. And that’s because it’s based on a visceral reaction to RFK Jr being head of HHS. It’s an overreaction. Do you know how many eugenicist things are said by pro-vaxxers to anti-vaxxers? That they shouldn’t be allowed to breed?

starjet.bsky.social•40 days ago

Let's see if this word starts to trend on search engines. Like the word tariffs did

This is why I finally cancelled my subscription to @nytimes.com last year (after being a loyal subscriber for too many years) and sent that 💰 to @theguardian.com. The Grey Lady has revealed herself to be a whore. The Guardian is appropriately named!
