The level of democracy enjoyed by the average citizen in 2022 regressed to 1986 levels. 72 % of the world's population, 5.7 billion people, were living under authoritarian rule. It didn’t occur overnight and happened entirely by design, forcefully instigated by a powerful, rich, hard right elite.

Yes, he is your party’s president and leader. You have supported him in the past and you support him now. He is tangibly hurting people in Maine, and you will prattle on, act concerned, and do nothing. You will own everything he does to hurt Mainers and everyone else.

in one of the pierce brosnan bond movies the villain is a newspaper guy who wants the world in chaos bc it means more news for him to sell. I remember watching it and being like "this is impossibly dumb" but you know what, I may have been wrong on that

Quick reminder that if you see a headline from a source you’ve never heard of that isn’t being reported by anyone else, you really should do some due diligence before spreading it around as fact. There’s enough misinformation floating around already; no need to add more.

I think this is one of my favourite colourful climate chart type things, because it depicts two things at once: - Things are going to get worse, no matter what - The degree to which they get worse depends on decisions made today theconversation.com/my-new-dark-... by @edhawkins.org

This is the standard of political behaviour which the Conservative Party has embroiled itself in. This sewer of racial hatred, paranoia, lies and violent extremism. This sickening pantomime. They are forming a de facto alliance with fascist street thugs inews.co.uk/opinion/the-...

The blame here apportioned to politicians is deserved but also displacement. The fault equally lies within some of the fishing lobby groups, which campaigned for the hardest possible exit against all evidence. Hard to think of an industry that looked after its own interests so poorly.
