One of the greatest deceptions of our time is the false narrative that we should be more concerned about a poor person misusing the welfare system or an immigrant being here illegally than we are about the ultra wealthy abusing the system and cruel people having unchecked power over all of us.

Everything suffers and everyone dies, so why not strive to make our time here, together, as warm, as compassionate, as caring, as kind, as good as it possibly can be?

Selling off national parks to private corporations is theft — of land, ecosystems, and public trust. Once they’re sold, they’re stripped, drilled, mined, and wrecked. And most of that damage can’t be undone.

If a US Senator had callously dismissed constituents concerns, even as recently as the 1970s, by saying anything even remotely like “you’re all going to die”, he would have been forced to resign before the next sunrise. Ya don’t even notice it except as a teams exercise. What is wrong with you.

“Fixing climate change is too expensive.” Um no. What’s really expensive is doing nothing. Climate disasters cost billions—and those costs are rising fast. Climate solutions save money and lives, as well as building a better world for us all 🌏💚

The rent is too damn high because greed runs the show. Housing is a human right, not an investment scheme. Build dense, green, public housing — and kick the landlords out of power.

The more people who are denied care and left to die, the more profitable it is for health insurance companies. Your reminder that for-profit healthcare isn't healthcare. It's an exploitation of sick people and transfer of wealth from the working class to the mega-rich.

Pay attention! This is an attempt to weaken the endangered species act, among other things. It is also an effort to promote mining & oil over conservation measures and compliance. This Admin is about billionaires, not regular citizens/patriots. Please comment! #ConservationOverCorporations

Make friends with all your neighbors. Stock up. Identify an alternate source of water. Garden. Cook your own meals. Avoid electronic media. Read paper books. Drive less. Spend less. Pay off debt. Convert your savings into real assets. Get cash. Get rid of all guns legally. Huh. Easy peasy.

America, there won't be any more real elections. Even if his approval rating is at 20%, he will have it rigged. Just like he admitted was done last time. He's continuing to erode the system. You have to act now.

Accepting a private jumbo-jet from a foreign nation is a clear violation of our Constitution, which plainly prohibits U.S. officials from accepting gifts from foreign governments.

RFK Jr.’s lies and misinformation about MMR vaccine harms children. That’s not a side of history I want to be on. #PublicHealthMalpractice is being committed daily by RFK Jr. He needs to go. @defendpublichealth.bsky.social

Mainstream media needs to stop pointing out what "RFK Jr. gets right," because there are many, many trained public health officials who get the same things right without all the batshit crazy eugenics and woo.
