I wonder if the recent rise in anti-vacine sentiment is just the beginning of the realization that humanity has basically become a virus. Anti-vaxers have accepted that and sadly, surrendered to it. Such folk would understandably be adverse to even the concept of controlling or mitigating a virus.

"When you ride TESLA, you ride with Hitler. Join Public Transportation Today!" Reworked WW2 poster spotted in Oakland

If you wanted to avoid this you would have helped built a party that had a message and a plan and actually supported workers and families. If you wanted less waist, fraud, and abuse you'd do more than scold fascists for their bad behavior. Where is the Dem's Project 2026?

Are either of the current U.S. presidents aware that China executes its troublesome oligarchs? Who is playing who in this silly capitist game?

Yep. And my response was don't be rediculous.

Just for sake of accuracy it is America Coup 3.0 day 24. All released this century.

And what new horrors has the unbridled accumulation of wealth visited upon us today?

So. What new machanisms have we come up with today to further accelerate our extinction?

If I were to be honest, the biggest challenge I face each day is to be honest.

There is an annoying thread rhat seems to run in most if not all human disasters in the last few centuries. Neglect Driven by the profit motive Fueled by deregulation Almost as if there were a pattern to this.

Oh, they are firing for a reason. Fortunately, for the time being at least, it is an illegal reason. Just because they reason badly does not mean they do not have a reason.

There is no good vs. evil. There is only stupid vs. even more stupid.

Finally. The only headline a capitalist civilization needs. bsky.app/profile/theo...

All we are is dust in the wind.

A worthy model for organization as well as insight into motivations and methodology. youtu.be/U9lGAf91HNA?...

We have every right to be terrified of Artificial Intelligence. Look how much damage humans have been doing with it since we first developed it at the dawn of this civilzation machine thing we keep trying to make work.

Remember. "We've been hear before" only confirms you are running in circles.

Of all the lessons history can teach us, the biggest lesson that seems to be missed is that we are incapable of learning. Lather, rinse, repeat my friends.

You know for certain that someone does not understand capitalism when they try to enumerate all the things capitalism gave us. Capitalism, by its very definition, "gives" nothing. Don't miss the opportunity to educate these folks, since they opened the door.

Ah liberals. Fascists in disquise. Angry? Prove me wrong by the votes you make and the forces you capitulate to.

I'm taking a pause from trying to figure out if I believe in the human project or not. I'm going to put a little more focus on surviving the human project or not.

Americans imagine they have a classless society while embracing the ideals of a clueless society.

What sort of message would it send if we all threw our hearts out to ICE agents like elon did whenever one encountered them. Would make for interesting videos of raids, that's for sure.

Not to dump on art for art's sake but, for those of you who insist we cannot survive without art. What does a Van Gough taste like? What's its thermal rating? I need to know so I know what art to stock up on in these turbulent times.

Climate Disaster. An event you can't possibly miss. Now on a planet near you.

Hmmm. According to one of the latest executive orders, men in the U.S.A. are now women. And we were worried he didn't support transitioning.

This will be interesting. The churches in the U.S.A. are now vowing to protect the very people they helped vilify while workers unions are just doing what they always do, just plain helping people. Have you learned who to trust yet?

What's this I hear about the Roman Empire coming back?

Looks like todays a good day to throw away my cup and start using my hands.

Hold that quaint little thought. Remember, the not so supreme court made him king.

I really do think this says a lot about Biden. He picked Harris on identitarian grounds that he gratuitously advertised, undermining her from the outset. And when they won, she wasn't brought along as his successor or groomed to lead the party. He set her up to fail. www.wsj.com/politics/bid...

Therapy is evagelism for rich agnostics?

Are any on the left in the United States of America at all concerned that the Democrats are using middle class rather than working class? There is a tell in there somewhere?

This is what happens when you try to do municipal social democracy without public sector capacity: actual implementation gets left to a whole ecosystem of unaccountable contractors, which is an invitation for graft. www.sfchronicle.com/sf/article/s...

“Well now we know who the best football team is”. Wrong! They’ll have another whole Super Bowl to decide the “best team” again next year. Wake up people 👀

Dumb apes fall out of trees, learn to play with fire. This could change EVERYTHING.

"Your future is a horror story written by the crimes of others," might be more accurate.

The left gets so much pushback when we point out the rise of fascism

Soon may the Fetterman come to bring us an end to immigration

Cops in Waltham, MA have shut down the city for TWO DAYS for a police funeral - and forced the schools to close at short notice because the cops commandeered the school buses for the event! We need to stop putting up with this madness. www.reddit.com/r/boston/s/p...

Guess how many Democratic Senators' offices have sent me emails about how I've been "misled" or am "spreading misinformation" regarding this bill this morning? Guess how many still haven't given me a good answer about how this bill won't be weaponized by AGs to go after queer and trans youth?

NY Lt. Governor Antonio Delgado dropped by today to show solidarity. #SAGAFTRAStrong #SAGAFTRAStrike #Power2Performers
