Malcolm X was assassinated 60 yrs ago today. See his timeless wisdom on the true meaning of “progress.” “If you stick a knife 9 inches in & take it out 6—that’s not progress. Progress is healing the wound. They wont even admit the knife is there.”

Elon musk is the richest man in the world, he could be funding hospitals, medical research and universities. He could be solving the climate crisis. He could be feeding, hungry children. Instead, he’s trying to make sure that your grandmother doesn’t get an extra dollar of Social Security.

Vaccines DO NOT cause autism. But what the autistic people in your life hear when you spread that widely debunked misinformation is that you would prefer to have a child die a painful death from eradicated communicable disease than to be like them. That's nasty work. Hope this helps!

Raskin: "Trump is suing CBS for $20b in damages because, check this out, he believes an interview with Kamala Harris produced too favorable an impression of her. That means I could sue Fox News because I think their interview with Trump produce too favorable an impression. I mean, this is lunacy."

Pfizer’s cancer drug commercial was beautiful, but their breast cancer drug Ibrance costs $10k per month and their prostate cancer drug Xtandi costs $22k per month. Beautiful commercials don’t change the fact that 42% of cancer patients exhaust their life savings in 2 years.

a good part of me thinks that in addition to everything else, the reason they are scrubbing these stories is they do not want disadvantaged kids to believe they can aspire to anything other than their designated “black” or “hispanic” or “woman” job

DEIA policies are necessary because we don’t live in a “colour blind & merit based” society. They literally save lives. When I first became sick, I spent years being dismissed because I was a woman. My serious heart issues blamed on anxiety, hormones, being unmarried etc 🧵

tuberculosis outbreaks in Kansas, North Carolina & Ohio. CDC aren’t permitted to update the public & people are not being advised of the risk or told to mask. There’s evidence that COVID causes immune system damage which could lead TB to reactivate. A respirator prevents both Covid & TB. Mask up!

Tesla earned $2.3 billion in the United States in 2024. You'd think it paid a lot in taxes, right? Well it paid precisely $0 in federal income taxes last year. You want waste and fraud? Look at what some big corporations and the rich are getting away with.

US farmers sold $2 billion of food to USAID. Not any more. - US farmers provided 41% of food delivered by USAID - $340M of purchases/shipments are now paused. Over 680,000 tonnes. - Food stranded in Houston - Aid stopped in transit. The world’s poor starving, food rotting & US farmers screwed.

North Carolina reporting tuberculosis on the rise for the first time in decades, as an outbreak in Kansas continues to surge. North Carolina was one of the first States to institute a mask ban. A respirator doesn’t just guard against covid, it protects against TB too

People always believe they will be the exception to disability and chronic illness There will be a cure when it’s their turn. They will try hard enough and get better They can’t accept that many things have no cure. It’s no one’s fault. Most people will face disability at some point in their lives

When you solve for the wrong problem, not only do you not get the solution, you can cause harm. The President wasted water that was being saved for farmers for a PR stunt. This was harmful, ludicrous, and solved nothing.
