I think Andy can win it.

Srsly, can you believe we're living through the fall of the US?

Ngl, this is the hater bowl. This is the greatest super bowl for haters ever.

i'll be blunt, if you are someone who is vocal about the ways that diversity efforts "divide the working class" but silent about the ways that *actual racism and discrimination* divide the working class, then i think you're just an opportunist

One thing black people know is that while you won't get all that you want from the D party what you do get is better than the alternative.

if I understand American politics correctly, progressivism is something that requires 60 senate votes to work, while national conservatism doesn’t require any votes at all

👇 This coup is only possible on the heels of neoliberalism & the billionaire class it generated.

My low buy year just turned into a no buy year. I won't be buying anything but the essentials sans 1 or 2 inexpensive & once in a lifetime show tickets for the foreseeable future.

The Chinese can do everything better & cheaper. The US was able to offer a world class if not world best business environment but no more. What do we have to offer now?

Trump will crash our economy, he and other billionaires will buy up assets cheaply & China will be the global superpower. I work for a Chinese owned firm so maybe we survive the crash? Wealth inequality has destroyed this country.

I love you bluesky but I admit I don’t totally understand the rabid and uncritical AI hate that predominates here

If I see one more person hand-wringing about “the left” when they mean 1-3 people on BlueSky I’m gonna lose it

Thinking a lot about Jimmy Carter, born a white, rural man in 1924 in a strictly apartheid Georgia and how he became a champion for racial justice and human rights, demonstrating once again that racism, xenophobia, crass and selfish individualism, are always a choice.

What if 30% of businesses were worker-owned? The bottom 50% of Americans' wealth would rise from 1.4% to 6.4% of total wealth. Median wealth for Black households would increase from $24,000 to $106,000. Those without high school diplomas would see their median wealth grow from $21,000 to $84,000.

#FusionVoting empowers working people by letting multiple parties endorse the same candidate, ensuring diverse issues are represented. Once common, it was banned in many states after working-class movements gained traction. It's time to bring it back. inthesetimes.com/article/ball...

I bet the Bills, Bucs, & Eagles 3 leg parley for $1.50. I'm happy to collect my $8.42 this afternoon. 🙂

Who is the economy doing well for in this scenario?

America's richest 10% now hold 60% of the nation's wealth. The bottom half of America? It holds just 6%. Wealth inequality is eating this country alive.

@govandybeshear.bsky.social Why can't Kentuckians use direct file?

so, are centrist Democrats for or against at this point some combination of wealth tax / progressive income tax that would render accumulations of wealth at Musk, Bezos, or even Gates levels unsustainable?
