Time to stop letting the powerful divide us. We have far more in common with each other than we do with them.

Worst. Episode. EVER.

Released 48 years ago (I'm) Stranded, the debut album by Australian punk rock group The Saints, featuring the opening song "(I'm) Stranded" The Saints (I'm) Stranded (Brisbane TV 1976) #punk #punks #punkrock #oldschoolpunk #thesaints #imstranded #history #punkrockhistory #otd

Let’s play a game. Which of these shots is from the 2006 film “Idiocracy” and which is a real photo taken today of the idiot put in charge of “Government Efficiency”? #idiocracy #DOGE

77 rocking years 🎸 Happy Birthday Stuart Tyson Kindell aka Billy Zoom, American guitarist and co-founder of the punk rock band X, born on this day in 1948, Savanna, Illinois, US. 📸 Michael Hyatt #punk #punks #punkrock #billyzoom #x #xtheband #history #punkrockhistory #otd

Agreed and worth every bit of your consternation. But don’t forget the #DNC and their choice to not address working people’s needs in their election rhetoric. They chose protecting their power and wealth over pushing real change. FAFO indeed.

Trumpist fascism is a movement led by very well-educated urban elites who want people to believe they champion rural people. Don’t fall for that phony divide. They attack rural folks, too. Here’s one small example local to Vermont:

Legend explains map.

Same, only I didn’t even get the form response, despite fact that we live in same small town. It’s the grotesque collapse to a decent career, the vanity of an earnest politician who won’t admit the system to which devoted himself broke, that “norms” didn’t hold, that HE didn’t hold.

This interview with Gábor Scheiring is important. When asked how we can convince Trump voters that our imperiled democracy is important, he answers that we shouldn’t. We should instead listen to them, learn about their suffering, and address it sincerely. It is what the #DNC won’t learn. #dems

This. Dem leadership is morally bankrupt. Can’t wait til the groundbreaking message of “we might suck, but we’re not as bad as Trump” makes the rounds for midterms. Again. #DNC #dems #democrats

Ladies and gentlemen, your Democratic Party— masquerading as “the Party of The People”. But what they don’t mention is that you will not be represented if you make less than seven figures. Just like GOP. Time to build a new option. #DNC #dems

Even in dark times we get a little sunlight.

This is what we mean when we talk about corporate greed: Starbucks gave its CEO $96 million for just 4 months of work. Meanwhile, Starbucks is refusing to offer a raise of more than 50 cents an hour to 12,000 union workers. That's unacceptable. Starbucks must end their greed.

I love this for so many reasons.

In the new Trump presidency, we have got to remain focused. We can’t panic. No matter how many executive orders he signs or statements he issues, our goal is the same: We must fight to create an America based on economic, social & environmental justice. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

This. Why did Trump win? Traditional Dem constituents see the party for what it has become— the other party that represents corporations and the wealthy over the other 90%. Their inability to recognize their own corruption is their swan song. #DNC

This is how you do it...
