@oaklandside.bsky.social You keep missing major protests - the one Monday moving from Fruitvale to Lake Merritt, and the one last night against Hakeem Jeffries Your covering these protests would help make what we do matter, rather than irrelevant

Exactly. Musk is an evil, sociopathic piece of shit, to be sure, but he’s also bone-stupid. Extraordinarily dumb. Like Trump, his main superpower is shamelessness to an almost surreal level.

And we got finger-wagged by a New England journo "expert" for not staying in our lane and sticking to our knitting (his words) and leaving hard stuff to (paywalled) NYT and Wapo. So we were right, and we did the right thing, and we didn't need anyone's permission to make our own news decisions.

It may not be cool or hip in some circles, but we legitimately do need a massive amount of people to run for office. Flood the school boards, councils, county seats, state legislatures, Congress, etc. Big changes at the top happen when the ground shifts at the bottom. And that can start now.

the core problem of the u.s. is that it's an unholy alliance of vastly different cultures which results in internalized imperialism, groups grasping for tyranny over the other cultures, terror of being the subjugated

I think it would make a big difference in our health if we banned Pharma ads from America like the rest of the world does.

UPDATE: Meta is continuing to censor anti-Musk ads. It has removed a Facebook ad calling for a boycott of Tesla, saying that it violates the company's policy on "unacceptable business practices" muskwatch.com/subscribe

There will be almost nothing left of the Constitution by 2028. It will be interesting to see whether the Democratic attitude leans more toward restoring it or governing beyond it. Case in point: the Electoral College. Maybe it's time we got serious about ditching this stupid idea for good.

On Wednesday I was the first to report Leland Dudek was on the verge of losing his job at the Social Security Administration when he was suddenly promoted to acting commissioner by Elon Musk. Thursday I published a story with more details. I’ll let you guess if I got any credit in this Post story:

If a media outlet can't call a Nazi salute a Nazi salute, we can't rely on them as a credible source of news. There's no ambiguity. It's a very distinct arm movement. People don't accidentally move their arms like that, ever.

Republican events for a month now (including Inauguration Day!) have featured a prominent Nazi salute & legacy media outlets ignore it. Seems like a trend worth covering, no? Maybe access to the Nazi party shouldn't be prioritized??

You have to scroll to the bottom, but it is worth reviewing the list of the minerals they chose to mention (I am sure there are a lot more not listed) Do not forget that this extraction locks in unimaginable and unnecessary environmental devastation, as it does in every continent right now

DOGE is getting a whole lot of headlines mainly because our brains aren't wired to make sense of millions, billions, or trillions of dollars. Lemme help: Math out the DOGE numbers and you'll discover that your DOGE dividend may buy you a coffee or two. The problem: There's just not that much waste.
